When a tune starts to sound like something i would have produced myself.. Im impressed.. Lets just say its that narsissistic gene of mine speaking...
I believe in the small things when creating music.. one akward chord, a misplaced snare, and loops that uses the entire spectra of the claviatur or midi-board and not just 3 notes... What im trying to say it that what youve done here is MUSIC to my ears..
I know from personal experience that a voice or acapella can make a tune go from crap to awesome, but in this case, im wondering if the voice is nessesary? You should experiment with the idea of extracting the voice and just let the tune speak for itself since you manage to incorporate feelings with the loops and sounds you are using.. just an idea..
its the same old problem for me,listening to a track after i`m sure its the best it can be and then realising i could change so many things about it, but you cant hold on to them forever :)i really appreciate the effort you put into your comment, it takes time and is important( feedback = awareness and growth imho ) .its easy to stitch pre fabs together and get genre specific white noise. Creating something, even if its not that perfect will always win in my book. It may mean slow output but comments like the ones i have been recieving make it worth the extra effort. once again thanks Dec.
Great production on this track.very infectious.love the way it transcends the gap between chill and dance type genres. this reminds me alot of Groove Armada. Chill enough to mellow out to and still maintain that head nod effect. Great Work!

Nice intro and build up into really cool melodic hook.
Than you just keep layering other cool stuff (vocals).
Nice break down than you take us home with the hook and vocal. really nicely constructed song. You used Acid or something similar? Anyway it's just a great feeling head bopping little gem a mellow and positive groove through and through.
GOOD WORK BRO
Haha oh wow the irony, i've used that higher vox before too in a veryyyyy old project of mine. back when i was using acid pro still. This is sounding pretty clean cut though, the arps are nice. Would like to hear more effects of some sort to juice up the sound. Sometimes some distortion can help with that, if you know how to incorporate it. great track though man. peace
yeh, was going through some old stuff and liked the sample, my first tack trying to aim for a more dancier feel, thanks for lisstening and commenting, duly noted thanks again :)

thanks, you can get a download here,was aiming for a much moderner house sound when i started this one, but as usual ended up with something a mile away. glad you enjoyed it :)
this kicks so much ass i truly love it, the quality is perfect, the arrangement is very nice, the bass is a live, keep it up and tell me where i can find this in wav format :)
Man I like the snappy feel and the syncopation! I like also when you added the claps and picked up the drive and the breaks were spot on!! Excellent Mix. I also ventured in the the electronic genre for the first time in quite a while take a listen when you get the chance! Enjoyed!
Description : Feel free to check out the video on YT as well (Alan McLaren Project - Upside Down) of this 6min journey from electronic to rock with some psychedelic moments...
This is my latest, but also one of my earliest tracks.... any feedback is more than welcome, thanks :)
Description : This is a strictly groove track where the elements of ambient meets electronic funk and Hip Hop. I play all instruments on the track excluding guitar solo which was performed by my friend Art Miller.
Description : A demo of one of my current projects. The chorus vocal sounds like "Aaaaraashe" to me. The song is in C# minor with a nod to C# pythagorean on the chorus. The beat on the verse was inspired by the Peter Gabriel song Intruder.
Description : This is one of my earliest productions that I did at the start of my recording career. I did not have a keyboard at the time I made this song, so I improvised and used my sister's iPad and a 5 dollar GarageBand application instead, and plugged the headset jack into into my PT6 rig and did my best to turn each individual track (which were mono and there were about 25 tracks or so) into a stereo image. Then recorded vocals over it. My computer was so old and slow that I had to mix my music and then BOUNCE it to a new session - four times. My computer (which had 512 MB RAM and an 80 GB hard drive) couldn't handle more than 8 tracks at a time or it'd stop working because the processor couldn't handle it. Took me FOREVER to do. But I got it done. Had a lot of fun doing it too, even if it isn't my "best" work. I'm still happy with it, considering I didn't have many tools to choose from at the time.
Description : Long time lurker first time poster, pretty new to production n stuff, this is my first track in Ableton Live.
was going for a darkwave/synthwave sound, reminiscent of Justice, Carpenter Brut, Perturbator, ect.
Looking for some feed back, constructive criticisms or even just your thoughts if you liked it or not. This is just a rough cut on this current WIP, just the bones of it if you will.. If you have some cool title suggestions, would love to hear those too.
Thanks for listening.

Description : Far out mid-tempo fat beat deep chillout grooves with Eastern/Arabic and slightly menacing vibes, huge delayed synth bass and a great palette of psychedelic layered and intricate sounds (mostly synths) and a stirring, epic feel. Even has guitar solo section reminiscent of some 80s power rock which is then followed by a brief synth harp solo. I began making it straight after staying round the flat of the flute player from the legendary Ozric Tentacles - easily the greatest ever space rock band. I made this in about 2001 and still think it might be my best track (and it's nice and short, for a change). My production skills were much weaker in those days (no EQ, compression or mastering used here) but, somehow, this one turned out pretty much just right. Feel free to disagree. Now sit back and get ready to trip extremely far out. If you manage to return, let me know how that trip was...
Description : Got some spare time finally...just started on some random ideas basically (lets say kygo meets alan walker). A blend of dubstep,edm,downbeat,tropical etc.
It's still a work in progress, so i would appreciate your honest inputs. Thanks to all those whose loops I have used in here, sorry I don't have time to search them out.
Edit-added some more filthy sounds from my previous tracks and gave it some ending. Advice will be helpful.
