My first ever Techno track.
I wanted to do a track containing sound bites from the BBC's 'Boys From The Blackstuff' and 'Yossers Story' - (the, in my opinion, best piece of British TV drama ever!) if you haven't seen it, I encourage you to watch it!
If you can leave some feedback that would be great!
Yosser's Story: After his wife leaves him, Yosser Hughes struggles to hold his family together, but with no work and the police and social services closing in, he is driven towards a final desperate act.
Techno - Gizza Job!

Another interesting one Craig, but I bet you know what I'm going to say.....
Loose the drums more in a few places, I think you're transitioning into a break but you're leaving them drums running. I think the track / listeners would benefit from it..
Other than that, I'm listening on a mono iPad and it was loud and audible nice work.

Kick and bass say techno, snare and synths say something else... Not sure what.. house, electro House, French house?
There's a disconnect there that doesn't work for me, Craig. It is cool but odd to me personally.

thanks for feedback - I'll look into that part where I have left the kick running albeit with a high pass filter on it.
I did mute the kick before but it sounded proper empty, think its because I've not got any 16th hats running. Hhmmmmm I'll have to have a play around.
Defo listen on your speakers or headphones as I guess the iPad speakers won't pick up the lower bass frequencies.
Have you seen the drama on TV?
Cheers
Craig.

Thanks for taking the time to reply again.
Yes the drums were from a Techno sample pack but the synths were from Diva and Repro - I just loved the sound of them.
I'm happy with your remark of Cool and Odd though - cos I'm a bit like that!
Defo Odd, less cool though! Ha ha

If you wanna get into making techno I suggest you listen to a lot of it. There's several variants of it. I like lots of artists like deepchild, Adriana Lopez, Tim Xavier, Spencer Parker, radio slave, deadbeat, and a lot the classic stuff. I'm not up to date with what's popular in the genre these days cause I don't really listen to much techno anymore.
Nah I don't watch TV!
I would agree there is definitely a disconnect between the specified genre and the track, I can't quite put my finger on it. And drum free sections are acceptable and it really would help I think even if only for a bar.
As for the tv program, I haven't got a clue..
But hey keep them coming and did you revisit the previous track?
