Long. I typed out a long response and some how lost it when the forum spazzed out. Brief versions:

remix i just finished. ive been listening to there is love in you and cosmogramma on repeat for a couple of months. i think it shows anyway.

This tune has vibes for sure. Piano riff is one of those classic US house sounding beauties. Beat and sub set it off. Wasn't feeling the vocal work and theres a really high pitch synth that comes in about half way through the tune (when the new vocal comes in) that was a really grating sound.

Ice Tea - Enjoyed this a lot.
Inside - Really well produced not a lot going on though. Elements were catchy enough to support that minimal a tune.

I think it's quite cocky to say I make music like producers that immaculate, but I definitely lean my sound in that direction (post-dubstep or whatever) check moi out

I like to blend pitch altered samples with synthy soundscapes and tend to make my percussive elements from stuff ive recorded myself etc.. not too dissimilar from Mount Kimbie

Fitfth Day - Rated this highly. Bass is embracing, beat has a little swagger to it. I wanted it to progress a bit later in the tune though.
Tranq - Could be signed. Very well put together, catchy, might say again it could do with progressing more or maybe suited to having a vocal to tie it together.
Serene - Synths and guitar were absolutely hypnotic, beat and sub left me dry though.


Phigure - That Tycho beat is nice introduction, I look out for more stuff by them.

Kinda Dub Techo sort of

Left me a bit cold, beat was a bit militant for me.

Measure - Some great samples and well strung together, but when the beat came in left me underwhelmed.
Mute Radar - Synths, samples all spot on, atmosphere is killing it. Beat ain't doing it for me.
Playground Sunburst - Rating the progression and melody all the way through. Beat was on point as well. And I am vibing on the sound you got here fully, but track is overly crunched to be loud as possible I think.
One Grain to Flower - Sounds are great on this as well but damn, everything is the same volume and loud.

Pete, I really appreciate the advice there. It's nice to have some overall judgement and a fresh pair of ears
to listen to the tracks and for taking the time to write those replies.

Given me some ideas on tweaking some aspects of my production styles for different kinds of music.

Even with a few releases, it's nice to get a fresh production perspective on what tracks sound like to different ears!
I'm always open to changing up my work styles and constructive advice.


Many thanks mate, cheers.

this future garage, 2 step, post dubstep stuff is really taking off

now that dubstep is hitting the big time. did anyone catch that monstrous deadmau5 dubstep thing..not good. definitely a good idea to jump on this train instead of the think, wobble snare stuff. not that its not good. its just getting worn.
