it's like an homage to the minimal artists Extrawelt. I'm workin on it daily, gonna be some 50+ minute set when it's done. throw whatever feedback or suggestions or anything at me. Also tips on how to get it out there would be cool. thanks in advance guys n gals

i think your url is wrong? I had to go to your profile to find the track which i think is called bonuslevel wip 8, not 6?

listening now anyway, will edit post when done



edit:

I actually think it's pretty frickin' cool. Constructive criticisms:


first 4 minutes - kick compression

Your kick is getting drowned out by your bass in the first 4 minutes, and in the final segment it could...kick more? You might wanna either up the compression on the kick, or cut your sub levels in EQ, or a little of both.

edit: 4.35 atmospheric drone

Around 4.35 you've got this harmonizing atmospheric drone going on and it works but it could be doing a little more. I know you're going for the minimal thing, but toying with its automation a bit might give it the space i think you're trying to create with it. Even if it's just some simple panning automation or phasing.

Keep going though, this is cool!

oh crap yea, I deleted all the old ones when I was up to #8, fixed that now.

heh nice I already upped the kick a bunch in the first and last segment now. you were def right about that. you're definitely right about the drone, that one's pretty basic, gonna screw around with that a bunch.

thanks a lot!

Did you just up the gain / level of the kick or add more compression?
