Oh golly - how many Kilohearts PhasePlants do you need to make a track?? Well - in my case i think it's about 4... the lead, bass, 303 arp, pads.
Wanted the drums to sound like a LIVE jazz band - so very splashy and groovy. Yet super tight.

And that is the type of super positive response I'll gladly take each and every day of my life - more more more!

With that kind of response.. it spurs me on to get back to the keyboard and MAKE MORE

BTW a huge amount of the sounds you hear are sounds i made in my Roland Jupiter 80 and sampled - dropping them into PhasePlant for further processing. Just realised there is another PP in there... it has the vocal stab that is dotted around. And I play around with (modulate) the looping in PP.

GLAD YOU LIKED IT!

Another BIG SMILE from me to receive this. I want to tidy this track up and get it launched. Have been in talks to various labels recently. Last year I had 4 tracks put out on NEOSTATICS. records. Think this is my next single - just has something about it.

Not spoilt in any way.... because...
I don't disagree with your thoughts re the other tracks. Like all of us I am ever improving production skills, musicality, and finding my style, my distinct sound etc.

Still pushing hard to stand out from the crowd. Getting there.

enjoyed this track, it's got a kind of manic energy about it that feels fresh, production sounds good. the splashes of jazz/brass throughout are cool, reminds me a bit of the old house classic "plastic dreams" by Jaydee. I'm posting a link below because I also feel like what is missing from this track is a bit of structure/narrative to the arrangement. So have a listen to how that track is "built up":



Mix think (certainly for a house/techno track) there is slightly too much mid and slightly too little bass. Especially the kick I feel should be a little more prominent.

Serious thanks for thoughts and insight. Agree re the mix being a little bit off (especially mid range and kick needs to be more kicking) - will work on it. Also will experiment more with arrangement. But just as important - glad you liked the idea.
