Here is my new track.

I think I went a bit wild with the song length. I was lost in the flow and was more partying than checking when to finish the song :-D.

I also tried to incorporate some feedback from my last song and I hope I matched the feedback. And thanks again for it :thumbs_up:

So, here it is. I hope you can make it through the whole song and feedback is highly welcome.

So I listened to the whole thing, and I'd say this is definitely an improvement over the previous track I listened to. It feels more cohesive and develops in a more narrative and less random way. I'd say the melodic element that starts around 6:19 could do with some more delay or verb to add more of a sense of space, it's there but it feels a bit to 'shallow' still, a longer delay feedback tail would have helped IMHO. Compare it to this classic from the good old days:



notice how there's a big contrast between the scratchy and twisted beginning and end, and the "clarity" bit in the middle with the looooong delay. If you were to make the middle bit in your track somewhat more extreme with the delay/reverb, that would help contrast it more with the other parts, which keeps is more interesting and gives it more of a feeling of a journey with different parts to it. I hope this makes some sense.

Other than that, nice job, keep up the good work.

Made me think of dragons ... sure she's not a robot dragon. This is good and makes me want to dance or just jump around. I have not listened to your previous track so can't comment on improvements but what I hear is well-balanced and nice development even if main theme stays throughout

Thanks for your feedback. I was very biased to add more reverb and/or delay there. Mabe i feared the cluttering of the mix too much. There is a short passage i experimented with it (starts around 6:50), and let a longer delay hopp around. Again, thanks for your feedback.

That main theme thing was a feedback on my last track too. Guess i was too busy with dance and jumping around too while making the track :-D. Looks like there is room for improvement. Thanks for your feedback.

I enjoyed this nice experimental wacky synth squelches but with constant driving bass line. I liked the synth lead that burst through at 6 minutes.

Hi

It's nice to hear what the team members can do.
I thought none of them made music ! :lol:

So yes, the song is a bit long but it is full of very good ideas.

Thx for sharing (I also listened to it as fully)
