no, no this is really dangerusly good. hehe. really. nice work.
only perhaps too little reverb on some elements.
othervise this is a great song. i liked it a lot.

maybe, but only maybe, at 1:30 that melodic part looses all the hardnes and tension from start. but it is well implemented.
so on the one side it is miss but on the other side it is a good thing.

if you ask me i would stick to first part.
but what you have done it is very good. very well done. really mature song. nice.

The intro is a kind of techno. I would have gone that direction myself, but definitely don't listen to me on this or anything negative I am about to say.

I didn't even know melodic techno used the rumble kick; I always associated it with a tougher kind of techno. Sidenote, I think of melodic techno as a poser trance guy trying to be cool but failing to hide his trance past

I don't know much about that style though, and leaving my taste out the door, all the elements fit together musically and work well as a whole. Keep up the good work Popey, this is the best thing I've heard from you in the 130ish and below tempos! No doubt about it! You're flying! 🥳

Thanks phil. From what I have heard on beatport a few melodic techno tracks use rumble kick so it was something i recently tried to learn. Still listening to tracks to get a better idea and break them down into parts to understand it and be able to recreate.

Still work to go on this track and toughen it up in the later stages along with proper mixing to try and add clarity to each individual parts but would agree this is the best non drum and bass track so far. This actually stems from one of our previous conversations when I realise I need to understand the genre I aim for and not just some strange house/trance/techno love child as I dont know the genre well enough.
