review for Dante, Chalk & SteveElektro
I'm a little behind since I've just started reading this thread and listening to people's music, and I'm going to be ALL OVER THE PLACE for the reviewing (page one to page three to page one to page 2 and so on)... so bear with me. Either myself or my partner in crime (CptHowdy) will be posting links to our work soon.
Dante:
Distorte- As a stand alone song, the first 27 seconds would bore me to hit the "forward" button to the next track... but as a cut in a mix I'm sure I wouldn't even notice. Your control of the distorted sounds was fine, nothing too muddled as to take away from the sound. It's a powerful piece.
Hot Carl- Nothing negative to say about this one, I enjoyed it a lot.
In The Dark- Sounds incomplete, like your still working on it... you seem to be missing the hook. I know it's trance, but you've got to hook them with something. I don't know if the abrupt ending is on purpose or it's actually unfinished...
Heated- I like the percussive intro... Nice build-up in the first half of the song... then it didn't seem to go anywhere, aside from a few additional percussion sounds. However, for an old school techno sound, I like this tune.
Chalk:
Dust- Very groovy ambient piece... nice, original sounding bytes. I like the absence of drums (and minimal percussion) here and there. Me Like!
Gulp- Head bobbin good, I like the guitar licks in there a lot.
Nice changes too. I'd remix it with a little more POWER though, more PUNCH... can't explain what that means, it's just a feeling, you dig?
I'd like to take more time in the future and download more of your stuff, I just don't have the time!
SteveElektro:
Bad Intent (Original Mix)- This is my kind of EDM, I fucking loved it. Great sound, nice build-ups, nothing dissapointed me. Excellent work, what does your studio consist of? Whatever you got, I want some of it.
More to come.
