Description : This was a song I did with 2 friends a couple of months ago but I accidentally deleted the project file so this version is the only one that is still in existence. It's kinda short but it sounds ok so I thought I would just upload it anyway.

Nice. Raw drum break. I like how it starts funky and morphs into a more synth groove. Very dynamic.

Definitely a groovy piece here! I like the sort of slowed down breakbeat vibe to the drums. Cool synth sounds which give a sort of fusion feel to things! The guitar definitely adds some funk, and there's nothing wrong with that. It seems like you could chop some samples from the beginning of the track to get those drum samples back and continue the track, granted there's a little sub bass in there, but that could be worked around. Just a thought. Fun listen! Fave!

Thanks, there is definitely a fusion of sounds going on here! Thanks for the suggestion too, might see if I can extend it at some point but got other things I want to work on right now!

Well this is quite the contrast to that last tune of yours i listened to.
This is real slow and funky. Nice electronic lead with some great efx on it and a great beat.
Enjoyed this one a lot.

Cryin' ass shame about losing' this summbitch! I've had that happen a couple times. Either that or it would glitch out somewhere and I ended up having to scrap it. Bummer, dude.

But, as for what we have here, I really dig it. That beat is nice and heavy, but relaxed as hell, and the bassline you have rolling with it is nice and dark without killing the vibe. I like the way this track stumbles into so many different genres and eras without ever leaving it's course.

Your transitions between synths are near seamless, and timed well.

Overall, I could see this being used as a theme song to a 90's style "Cyber-flick." A sound, that in my opinion, is all too rare.

Take care.

It's a bummer for sure, it's happened to me before also! Never a good feeling :(

Turns from a calm song into a rather trippy one, I like it ;) It's cool to hear it flow over like that and it's like a short journey over various places, at 1.24 it sounds like you are in the desert or something haha

sad though that the project is lost but it stays a nice song
so great job on it

cheers

Yeah it does have some trippy synth sounds. I can see where you're coming from with the desert comment as well, never thought that. Nice one!

Yo, dude. This is pretty cool.

Percussive fill eg on 0:09 is a good and distinctive sound.

This is sounding much more like funk than 'electronic'.

0:52 I like the lead but not so much the glassy-sounding sort of pad behind it.

OK, now it is much more electronic and the guitar has dropped out.

1:44 cool sort of 303 synth and then there's a lead squealing fizzing one on top.

2:06 return of that lead from before. Makes me think of soundtrack theme music there as it's a definite motif.

Real shame you've lost the project file as I know you could do more with this one as there are some cool themes that could be expanded upon.

You could turn it into d'n'b, for instance.

You could even just take this mixdown version and then add other elements onto the end in order to continue it.

Good work that will be enjoyed by many.

Multiple favourites coming your way....

Hey, thanks!

I don't even remember how it could've happened! Never even thought of just putting it into ableton and continuing it! I'm not sure I could get the drum sounds the same again though as I don't remember where they are. My sample library is a bit of a mess right now :/

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.
