I think you're probably right about the compression. It doesn't sound particularly bad, but this track is WAY louder than anything else I've played this week. Mind you, you probably don't need to worry too much about headroom from a DR perspective, as the genre dictates this style of levelling. I guess the level is more noticeable when this track is played as part of a playlist alongside Erik Satie or AES Dana :wink:

There was a small break at 0:50 where I was thrown off the rhythm a little. I don't think it was a skip or anything wrong with the audio. It just sounded a little unnatural. I liked the overall feel of this track. All the synth components sounded great, and I liked the snare sound.

Good work :)

Groovy as fvck!

I mean really groovy. :tu:

Maybe overcompressed but it doesn't sound bad.
You may think you can fly ... but you better not try

Thanks as always Seismic.

I think part of the issue is I was trying to "master" as I mixed. Schoolboy error. I will leave it a week or so and revisit for another mix down.

I do know exactly what you mean by the unnatural break. It's a weird one that. It has sounded unnatural all along but it just shouldn't; there's no change in notes etc to cause the weirdness. Part of the issue is I tried to correct it, which has obviously made it worse. Another schoolboy error.

I have no sense of myself anyway, i`m Borderline Personality Disordered, so nothing to lose. I usually just take on the mannerisms of the person closest to me, so no worries. :party: :lol: :wink:

It did seem to be appropriate.
It has however made me hungry, if you catch my drift :hihi:

Not sure how I missed miss. Then I looked at the date. Then I asked myself who found this gem and necro'd it. Then I saw it was you. So what happened? Remix? Anyway, very quirky and enjoyable to listen to to a point. Kind of repetitive in places for an almost 9 minute track. But I understand it's a genre thing. Not the kind of music I could listen to for a whole day but it was a nice change of pace. The production is good, at least according to this layman's ears as I don't really know how this genre is supposed to sound. All I know is it sounded good to me. Perhaps the techno experts can offer additional insight.

Anyway, good fun.

Thanks Wags.

I acquired a few new mixing/mastering plugins over the last few weeks along with a bit of knowledge and tips. I intend to remix a few of my older tracks and this is the first of that batch.

haha thanks man.

That was my era too, the best days of my life. The problem with that though is that any acid track I make inherently ends up having the classic London sound. I’d like to add a current flavour to it and that’s what I strive to do with every new track. One day I’ll get there.
