Hello! This track is our newest and feature samples from a track that was produced by a dear friend Direkt Jive, he passed almost a year ago. This is still a rough draft, but wanted to get some feedback, so here it is.



Beat programmed on the ESX along with samples on the SP-404, all other melodies come from the R3 and Venom. Recorded live as always. Thanks
 
I think your mixing skills are very good and the playing/programming is great. The beginning part was way too long and I got kinda bored....so I waited.....and although some nice parts came up it wasn't very exciting. I don't want to be too critical but I think that's important for dance type music....
 
Thanks! Not too critical at all, I agree that we probably could shorten this one up considerably. I find myself getting bored a little bit too. I appreciate the feedback, that's why I post these.
 
My bandmate agreed too, we're going to re-record on Monday to tighten\shorten this track up. Keep an eye out for the redux!
 
first thoughts are that the drums are too dry...or just too simple..I get the beat you're going for but maybe just a couple of fills or ghost notes would turn up the interest..

I think it does seem a bit long but if you pump up the weird noises a bit quicker and/or shorten the intro a little it'll work better
 
It takes way too long to get to something interesting, then does not seem to capitalize on the interesting sounds. Also, You may want to either turn down the drums or do something to make them more interesting.
 
Thanks guys, I will work on the drum patterns before we re-record. Great tips here, lovin this forum:)
