Hi Steve, just to let you know I had a chance to enjoy this tune again. That would be probably one of my favourite from you ever. Ahh.. 'Bedroom Games' were very nice too!
I was thinking a lot of making a cover of one of them these last few days. They are simply great songs. I will let you know.
best to you, Alex

Wow cool vibe here. Funky and oldschool but not overly minimal or cheesy.

I absolutely LOVE that juicy bass drum at the beginning. Slightly too juicy at certain spots, but does the job well. Beautiful synth work (it's so silky smooth to my ears!) and I enjoy the bassline, even if it "breaks" the rules. Truly, it sounds really pleasing to the ear. Good stuff cru. Sounds nice and airy, just like I like my music to sound :) Good stuff. Seriously.

This sounds really great. Great taste you've got there and truly artistic.

Absolutely great! This is pure performance of good taste...
Well thought out composition with dark and tense feel, instant
favourite!:)

hi again, very nice one -I am liking the percussions in the intro and all very gentle drums throughout. The 'frog-like' kind of synth bassline definitely reminds me of your 'Bedroom Games'. I like the placement of instruments in the recording spectrum too. Very fine synth lead from 2:37 - nice played, something like Tangerine Dream - a kind of a guitar almost!
Very soft and calming sounds! Alex

im naturally a bass line fan and i like the way yours carried the mellodie. its the life of the track. Groovey to me.

Well i'm no expert on chill out but i like the atmosphere's that i'm hearing here. It's very funky and sort of leftfield sounding. You do a lot of different genres well so it's no suprize that this is nothing short of brilliant. Love the pad work, it's really dreamy and flows with the funky bassline perfectly. Dig the guitarish synths in the breakdown and i'm a little jealous of your soloing skills.
An epic piece of chill out that hits all the right buttons.
Niiice!!!

Really chilled out production. Has a lurking in the jungle vibe to it at some parts. Really digging the pads and sound choice. Has a cinematic flare as well, great work. Mixed real well too, peace

unrelated to track. how do you manage to get your tracks in perfect chronological order. the option never seems to work for me.

what a cool dark sound you are getting hear. subtle string sounds. i like that hot electronic snare sound in groove? again - when that warm synth comes in it is like a ray of sunlight (or moonlight) and chordal progression resolving to major creates an interesting mood contrast to the dark groove. major chords are underused! now the guitar solo - back to something more consonant with the groove mood. interesting concept. thoroughly enjoying. wonderful work. peace.

Great Intro.
I like all but the intro is my favourite part here.

those synths! its like im living life with no worries! such a relaxing track! U did Great!

Hey Steve, this is awesome man. Love the harmonies and I think this works so well because everything is not centered on the bass. Fav from me bro.

Well done crucethus, I think you worked the panning out great with the bass and further nice pads, sounding all together sorta dark. Also nice work on the guitar you fitted in there

Really urban and dark, I love it!

a differenT track of yours Steve ,I like your designation abouT synchronizism of the up beaT of percussive line with a considered note of the synth & also the waY in which U plaY your eleganT solo by synth . welldone & remarkable.best wishes.___B

"If you can find it, there is an instrumental version of Digging in the dirt (somewhere I have a CD5 single of it) that is awesome as it just builds up the verse and then only at the end do you get the chorus, the anticipation of that is mind bogglingly good."

Thanks for telling me about that version. I searched and found an instrumental version on Youtube, which is great. It's one of those amazing tracks where the vocal is so good but kind of overshadows the brilliant music underneath it so it's great to bring the playing out more. The bass is so simple and powerful and I love the guitar - tone, fluidity of the playing, everything really.

Maybe it's not the same instrumental you've heard as I didn't hear a chorus "at the end". There were just small portions of the vocal, no proper verses or choruses.

Simply Smooth. I love the synth work!!

Can definetly hear that 90s sound, very well done. I too like what you did with the bass, and the mastering on this is phenomenal.

Bonjour mon Ami ....

I remain pleasantly surprised, listening to this very nice track.
Aside from the usual small plaisenteries in our mutual comments .... I confess that I have great interest in what you are doing .... Because there are a lot of personality, ingenuity, and also the talent to realize your concepts, your themes ....
In short .... It's great your piece here .... and sorry for the delay to listen.

I am feeling this chill out track. nice

This is not a comment on your track but a reply to this: "What I love about this site besides the critical comments which believe me help my overall production values, is the influences that drive each musician. Ozric Tentacles, Mon Dieu! Brilliant sounds I have never heard before. So the sharing of ideas and influences help musicians like us evolve into something better, and for that I am truly grateful. Thanks for the comments".

I guess you must have checked out my track Circular Motion and seen that I mentioned the Ozric Tentacles. And then you went and checked them out and loved them. Well done - they are an incredible band and I'd say the greatest space rock band ever. But they've been around for 30 years and have a lot of material. Unfortunately, in the last 15 or so years they have just been retreading their old stuff and not progressing at all and are now a bit boring. It's sad that I have to say that about one of my favourite bands ever but it's really what I think.

Please check out their stuff from the late 80s to late 90s as it's absolutely incredible. They do 'trance' in a much more musical way than almost all trance producers I've ever heard. Here are some albums you should definitely get: Pungent Effulgent, Erpland (those two are probably the best), Strangeitude, Jurassic Shift, Arborescence and Become The Other. But there's also great stuff from the 80s that were cassette-only at the time but can now be got as collections. Happy listening as it will be a hell of a deep trip!

Yes, I know what you mean about not panning your basses. I try to do it but then things just seem unbalanced so I tend to do it just for a effect for a short period in the song.

If you go to about 1:16 of my track on this site called Circular Motion, you'll hear a pair of synth basses playing the same thing with each panned about halfway to each side.

I find that balances things out though just one bass on one side tends to be a bit odd.

Anyway, back to your track, which has a cool vibe to it (and the panned bass seems to be fine). I love the filtered, twinkling percussive stuff starting on about 2:35.

This sounds like it should probably be a vocal song. I mean that it sounds as though it could just have a vocal stuck on top and you wouldn't have to remove much that's going on.

I'm not surprised to hear you refer to Digging In The Dirt. That is a spectacularly amazing piece of msuic. Brilliant vocals but it would be so cool just as an instrumental. And I also know the Avalon album and can see why you mention it. Good work.

This is so groovy! The sounds you used really take me back to a different time! I'm not one to pan my basses, but with the complimentary lines going on the balance is almost centered anyway, so that's very cool and creative! Definitely my kind of chill out! Great work! Faved for sure!

Hey Cruc, this seems the in the direction I'm looking at too. I like to compose some songs with a deep though funky electric sound. This works as an inspiration to me. I really like the 'chorus', it has great progression in it. And the communicating basslines at the 'sides' is a nice find actually. It grabs ur attention more. And there's no other way to have two baselines talk to each other. ;)
In between at 2:30 the rythm gets to loose and crowded in my humble opinion, but I really like the feel of the track. Great job mate. Chrs FF

Awesome stuff...really lives up to the chill out genre. This just washed all over me as it came out the speakers. Felt like an Audio Loofah, loosening up all the tension and making me feel " clean " again. :) Thanks for sharing it.

I dig it awesome song!!!!!!!!!!

Crucethus, this is so good on so many different levels. My theory professor actually told me I should quit music and take up another hobby, hahaha. God I hated that SOB....

Back to this track, this is outstanding work. The composition is outstanding, well thought out, and well delivered. You have mad skills as a musician as well.

This one is definitely one for my favorites list. I had to grab a download (thanks for that).

A beautiful listen and a great way to start out my Wednesday. I hope all is well.

This one is a tonic for the ears crucethus...beautiful big fat pad sounds, thoutghtful composing and some tasty chord progs...I like the bass sounds...a little like a fretless, with lots of harmonics..the melody is almost implied rather than in your face kind of stuff..and my ears & speakers both really like the mix....Superb bit of musical art my friend...and very much enjoyed over my way tonight....Ed

Lacking words to describe, my english isn´t that good but I really liked this one. Mellow and...you sort of used the sound palette so eloquently and not in an intruding way. Very soft, light and enjoyable.

lol ....cardinal rules?......you should do what i do and just go with what feels good...sod rules!

Music is always more than just sounds.....its feelings,idea's and ways to experiment,but most of all ,it must come from emotion in all its forms....happy,sad,love,lost,passion,euphoria etc.!

The main thing is it has to take me somewhere!

Loving this,very chilled and a lovely trip!

Nice work!.......forget about cardinal rules.....use your feeling as music talks!

Peace all the way man!

Good Song! I really enjoyed it... chill and cool.
And I really like the work on the bass.
Thanks for sharing.
Ciao, Domenico
