Swallow - Acrylic

Description : Breakcore, This really tests the limits of my audio production skills, i used 2 loops and recorded 2 samples, this also happens to be the track that i have spent the most time on ever, (even for its short length) It started with more of an idea on how i could make a snare drum circle by adding wet reverb signals and modifying volume levels, Then i realized that granulizing a looped snare drum sound sounded amazing, from there it was break after break until the song was Completed. Also at the end is just one snare drum hit looped with so many effects on it. all in fl studio no outside plugins except for the mastering plugin (E-maximiser by nomad studio) And all synths were done in 3xosc. Give it a listen and tell me what you think...

this more fits into the D&B lifestyle. It reminds me a lot of a Dieselboy feel. Gotta dig the grungy style of ##### D&B. Keep up the great work. This would get the crowd moving BIG TIME! God Bless.

A very experimental sound. A very difficult feat to match I'm sure. I give you max-props for being able to succeed in making it sound the way it does. Would make a good action movie soundtrack. Cool stuff.

Hi Acrylic,
Thought I'd stop by and see what you were up to.
I'd have to say, this was very interesting indeed. I don't think I could make anything like that myself. It wouldn't even entered into my mind, as I am an old guy and am into tradition music more.

But what you did here has a certain audience and I am sure it will be enjoyed by many.
You put a lot of stuff together and lots of cool effects, so it was an interesting tune for me!
Thanks for sharing,
Randy

wow I feel humbled. I could learn a lot from you. The old school snare rush was amazing. If i made that song it would burn a hole in my pocket; I would want everyone i know to hear that one. Sorta like a self portrait I'm asuming. Why don't you give a review on my track Drop It

Description : With this song, I wanted to challenge how we perceive darkness and the power we allow it to have over us. Rooted in Scripture, it's a reminder that evil is no equal to God, Christ's victory is absolute and darkness can never overcome the light.

Description : This track started as an idea Pnnywze pitched to me and Ci when we were brainstorming for the Halloween EP, and it just grew and involves members of our collective. Pnnywze came up with the melody on an old Casio keyboard we found in a garage. +Explicit Content+
