Description : THIS IS THE FINAL VERSION OF MY TRACK "In paradise".
I've been working on and off this track for over a year now. Each time I've never been fully satisfied... until now. This is a 10 minute remix of a track that was originally 2 minutes long. Its also my first time using pitcher and newtone on my voice (hopefully it won't be a regular thing and I can use my actual voice in the future though)
The first three minutes of this track is the introduction, starting off with a wierd panning drumloop made with a few electro drum sounds that came with fl studio, and slowly adding more sounds to it.
The following 6 minutes are me playing around with loads of different drum loops, and my own voice.
The last two minutes or so is an outtro, ending with the same drumloop as in the start.
The guitar was made using string theory and image lines "Hardcore" plugin, the piano is a heavily filtered FL keys, the pads are four filtered samples, and the strings and bass were made with synth1- arguably the best freeware synth out there. The drums were manually placed into the FPC then sequenced.
I'm not allowing downloads on either of the links, but if you contact me privately or in a review, I'll send the mp3 your way. (The one on soundcloud isn't 320, because I wasn't sure if soundcloud had a size limit)

Yea man luvin the finished version man. Vocals tie it well and synth and effects working give it a lush funky liquid groove fella. sounds like it could be on the cover of a cool d+b band album.
Nice 1

At first, I didn't know what to make of it. When it there was more beats, I like it. The beat and melody was very nice. It has a little groove going. The vocals are not bad either, I think it's at the volume it should. It could be a louder if you want. Great job. Keep it up. :)
Man another very nice piece, nice relaxing type of DnB, something that is not going to blow your ears, very nice ambient/chillout type of synths/pads, makes this piece a very relaxing and enjoyable listen, great beat patterns Ste, arrangement and the clarity are spot on here in this mix,really liking the vocal in this mate, excellent,would like this vocal in a trance, is that you on the vocal?? if so is it available to use?? another fav my friend...Peace n Respect...Estefano...
Yeah, the vocals are mine, I uploaded it as a pella a little while back, the downloads here: http://www.looperman.com/acapellas_detail.php?aid=2550
I'm gonna upload the second vocal part into the loops section, seeing as its only 8 bars long, but I can send it to you if you like.
Really glad you liked it though, so thanks for reviewing and fav'ing!
I like this track it is more of the softer ambient side to dnb so that is probably why i think this track was so good. it was well worth the time put into it with this version ") Kudos
The intro is amazing. Love the panned (and phased?) drum sounds and the pads are just gorgeous. One tiny bit of advice would be to add some reverb to those drums at the start..just a hint here or there because it sounds a bit dry until the pads really come in. The rest is just a lovely journey...I was a little apprehensive when I saw you've named it "extended vocal mix" thinking I'd hear you singing about love or sunsets or unicorns or whatever (nothing personal, I've just heard far too many electronic songs ruined by trite lyrics and weak singing), but you've used your voice more as an additional instrument and it works really, really well here.Can't really say much about the mastering because I'm listening to this on headphones, but it sounds fine to me.
Really good stuff, this. Love the whole vibe of this track...extremely soothing without ever being boring. Well done.
Yeah, the drums at the start were phased. I was going to add reverb, but when I tried it the drums seemed to get drowned out, or the pads did, so I never got it quite right, not gonna go back and re-visit this one now, cause I think its time I left this track in the past.
The "extended" part was just to show that I've finally made a song that isn't two minutes long, and the vocals.. speak for themselves. I didn't want my vocals too far into the foreground, so they aren't louder than any of the other instruments.
Nice mix Ste:) Pretty long track but I like it. I like how you kept it interesting and switched it up some. The synth's and sfx you used are dope. They really give it a liquid feel. Your vox gives it some more life too. You sure as hell put a lot of work into this track. Feels good to finally be done with it. Now it's time to start something fresh and new and not have this one sitting on the back burner collecting dust...lol... Nice work man!!!
Yeah, I geuss you guys are as sick of hearing my variations on the same track as I am making them. This one feels different though, just the whole sound seems so much more uplifting than its less impressive counterparts.
Definatly gonna be making new stuff, finishing this track is like ending an era and moving on to bigger and better things.
Thanks for reviewing the track Blume!

Description : In 2015 I made a dubstep track called Labyrinth Of The Absurd. This is part 2. Check out part 1 if you haven't yet. This is a Dark D-n-B. Or whatever.
I used Serum, Massive, Sylenth1. I used no presets, and no prefabricated loops. This is all original content from scratch. The only exception being the vocal samples.
Description : Ambient breaking into dnb I guess. All loops (except for 1 synth by my 7 yo daughter) so I can’t take much credit for this. Free demo loops from Loopmasters and LM loops from:

Description : 170 BPM drum 'n' cell epic. That's drum 'n' bass with lots of my layered, lead cello playing. It's both banging and chilled out, with intricate basslines and soaring, melodic cello parts. Instruments: electric cello, piano, three synth basses, two synth pads. Drums are loads of drum loops supported by a few programmed acoustic drum kits. It's fast and powerful stuff but there are also two deep grooving half tempo sections. No guitar so anything that sounds like it might be is, unsurprisingly, cello. This was fairly hard to make and required a lot of hard work. It's still far from perfect, especially the rather abrupt, unimaginative ending (I couldn't think of anything better). Have a good listen and then consider leaving me some fascinating feedback. Not much drum 'n' cell about so I like to think this is worth checking out...
Description : This track uses lyrics written in Morse Code, with tempo and pitch adjustments to fit. I’ve also programmed some Morse into an analog synth part.

Description : So ive been listening to alot of dnb lately, and i decided to try my hand at it. It turned out to be alittle more chillout than I wanted it to be, but I still like how it turned out.
A ambient type of DnB track, one to make you think, Second attempt at the DnB genre for this year, again apologise to Drum and Bass artist, guessing again not your normal DnB.Used flute Rhodes Piano, and a few other bits to hopefully get the feeling for the piece I wanted, along with a few break beats/bass lines and FX etc...
Please comment/review and the favour will be returned...
