:x Myspace does this fucked thing where the player doesn't show up if i link to it from another site !!????!!!WTF... v. frustrating as i can't tell what I'm listening to..
However the tune that played once the page loaded sounded dope as hell bro. Def be interested in 320s if there are any forthcoming.
Will check it again via myspace proper and listen further.

i can dig the synth work in your tunes, but i'd enjoy the tunes more if they had bigger slamminer drums and thickererness to them

respect for some constructive words. I'm gunna be honest with you and say that I had to turn down the drums significantly because it really overpowered everything else. I'd be interested to see how you felt about the mix done before this where drums were the star.

I'll give you feedback on your tunes if you got em.

I was thinking the same thing about the drums... as the tunes are right now, they sound great for listening and chilling out, but with some glitchy pounding drums they might work better on the dancefloor. Maybe commision some remixes from some board members? Id be interested to hear the before versions too, and to take a crack at a remix or two... ;) Dont get me wrong, Im feeling these, I just dont know if they would make it into my sets as these versions, but they would deffo make the iPod. Deffo hit me up with some 320s though. Killer synth and atmosphere work.

Very nice tunes alot af variation w/in each track... However, I'm gonna agree w/ the "more bangin drums" thing. Compression, tight reverb w/ short attack and long release may help... but what do i know.

Don't get me wrong though...they're dope!
and I'd def take some 320's!!

EZ,

thanks for all the notes guys, appresh a lot. Gunna be straight up and say that Taylor Dunes is the only track that I was going for a more up beat.

Thanks for pointing out the drum tracks not hitting hard enough. Sounded fine in headphones/ bose sub but listening to these tracks on a few friends computers I immediately recognized the problem. Gunna start remixing tonight and I'll hopefully post them next week and guys can let me know if its any better.

.. . including proper monitors. i'm listening on bose headphones though so s'all gravy. arrangement and melodies are good but i think your choice of drum samples could use a little work. claps and hats sound very stock.
