For minimal, that was good. It held my attention from start to finish, which is more than most minimal tracks do!!! 6/10.

Very good, it sounds more of a movie soundtrack song (i know theres movies in the background of video) it's definately more appropriate of a soundtrack tho.
6.5 / 10

Catchy.


This next one is very dark, underground electronica.

The Knife - Silent Shout

|>R()|)!G/-\|_ - You gotta listen to this a couple of times, then you'll be addicted. The album is also called silent shout. its a TOTAL grower after a couple of listens. You'll be hooked. 4.5 / 10 is way too low lol!

4.5/10
There were some pros and some cons to that track. The pros were the kick drum, vocal effects, and how they played with each element's levels throughout the song. There were times when the synth line would rise up out of nowhere only to fade just as quickly as the vocal came in. There were also some cool sounds like tinkling chimes and tom-toms scattered around. I had a fun time hunting for the hidden sounds. The cons were that 16th note synth line that carries the whole song. I felt it too frantic and didn't like the patch/tone itself.

I really like this song.. It's got some nice machine gun sounding beats at times, It's different from alot of other electronica type stuff i've heard. It's got heavy metal / death metal influences in it. It's interesting. And definately different.
I'm playing it for 2nd time right now. lol. :) It's definately got that mid 90's sound to it. lol.

7.5 / 10



You slated my Silent Shout song you crazee.. that's immense! anyhow, here's something a lil' different..


Cracked LCD - Ladytron

I enjoy ladytron, so you got a nice reveiwer :) I really enjoy the sound of the melody, and the driving kick drum. The vocals are lovely. Would make a great track for calming down a set. Then driving it back up after this.

A touch short. 8/10. Liked it alot.


STEVE AOKI, omg saw this crazy man last night at family brisbane. He is such an entertainer. Opened with this great chilled out track, like a classic 1950's song. Then rode the repeat effect for about 1min/2min. Then droped into warp 1.7. Never have I scene a club be more like a mosh pit at a korn concert. He crowd surfed, sprayed champagne all over the crowd. Was going nuts.

Then he played warp 7.7 about 30min latter, which is better imo than 1.7. Went crazy. So no further ado. I present.

The Bloody Beatroots, Steve Aoki - Warp 7.7 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPSg4kOXfC4

If you haven't scene this man, it is an experience, he is very passionate about his music.

You had me uncontrollably leg drumming the whole way through that. loved it. really nice kinda upbeat without overdoing it.. just some perfect balance in between. Nice nice beats. Im a lil' drunk right now but ooft i liked that. This forum topic is great, it's getting me listening to alot more stuff that i've never heard of :) thanks folks.

I'd give the song i heard 9/10 for the simplicity of excellance hehe. was good. im gonna add that to my personal compilation.

Now i have to think of one.. (5 mins later...)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24gyyToHgL8

This is from my own channel.. i just uploaded this. its rare as fuck. basically, i gurantee noone else has ever heard this. Check out this D'n'B :)
 
Some new underworld ay..... hmmm got to love there driving drums... when the melody comes in. Amazing.

It is quite interesting. 8/10, just because of the driving beats and melody. Smooth just as the uploader summerised.

Pryda - Miami to Atlanta

Coincidentally I was listening to Jon G's Ready Steady Mix and the first track is the Williams Acidic Circuits Remix. I liked it a bit better b/c the drums are more pronounced than in the mix you posted but I still can't dig the synth lines.

ShockOne - Adachigahara's Theme

7/10 That was dope. The intro had me thinking it was going to be a goa-style trance track. I was pleased when it got into the dubstep riddims b/c I dig the genre but liked how it also kept the trancy sounding Eastern themes. I like how the riddim was dubby but more driving than sleepy. I didn't feel like it got monotonous at any point either.

The Field - Over The Ice

I fucking love Kompakt!!! This track is typical of the label - gorgeous, deep, melodic tech-house - really nice to listen to at home, but even nicer to listen to in a club whilst high on e :) The Field is playing alongside Michael Mayer in Manchester in a few weeks' time - I may just have to check 'em out! Anyway, 'Over The Ice' gets 8/10 from me.


Let's have some more Kompakt:


The Modernist - Pearly Spencer
