Hey guys,

Took a break from trying to sound as agressive as possible and do some chill deep stuff. Ended up sounding pretty fucking awesome IMO!
Hope you like it, leave a comment and stuff

Soundcloud

Cheers!

Best work ever, well pretty amazing anyways. Very spirtual, i just watched lord of the rings and the spirtuality of the song matches the constant fear and paranoia in the movie. I have no complaints or suggestions, it's just really good. I would build on this, make an album man. Do it, i bet it would be awesome, id probaly buy it anyways, it would be a great listen i imagine, if you have more inspirations from where this came from. Keep it up man.

Some good ideas. It's a bit too slow for my tastes. Need to watch your mix as well, the percussion is all over the shop. That rhythm sounds very me...tro...no...mic, a bit of swing or "naturalising" (as opposed to quantising) your percussive elements will do wonders.

Thanks! I've actually been experimenting with swingey drums but it didn't reaaally work IMO..
By the way, what do you mean by "the percussion is all over the place"?
Care to elaborate?

Your cymbals stand out too much while your kick, snare and clap don't stand out enough.

Ah that's what you meant. Okay, thanks for the input!

Definitely this. Love the vibe of the overall track. Beefing up that snare/clap would do wonders I think.

Thanks mate! I actually kind of like the light drums... I might experiment with some harder/beefier snares and see what happens. Thanks again!

Feeling this for....

The snare needs to be turned up a bit so it comes through the mix a bit more...

Could hear some really dark and eerie vocals on this one aswell....

Really good track though!!!

Thanks mate! I've actually been looking for some samples... My English pronounciation isn't quite good enough to do it myself hahaha!
