There is it is! There's the Crucethus I ran into over a decade ago!
This definitely reminds me of your earlier work, but with the evolved quality of the now. I love the instrumentation in this. The vocal samples fit so well, too.
You know, I've never been able to put a finger on it, but I think the best way to put it is that you, sir, are the Jackson Pollack of music. You have a way of throwing so much at the canvas, and it all lands exactly where it needs to, and makes the big picture a true work of art.
As far as chill-out...yeah, for me it certainly is. Considering I fall asleep to bands like Infant Annihilator and Cannibal Corpse. It always cracks me up when a dude will say, "Yeah. I listen to some pretty hardcore, shit, dude. Ever hear of a band called Avenged Sevenfold? They fuckin' ROCK, man!". I just want to put my headphones on them, and go full Marty McFly, and hit play on some Larcenia Roe type shit.
Anyhow, I hope everything's going well for you, Steve. It looks like you had pretty rough road lately, and I sincerely hope it's getting better for you, brother.
Take care, bud.
Aaron.

Amazing work. Of a good quality and mixing. And this IS chill out in my opinion, cuz it's quite relaxing even though it has a fast tempo. Anyway much credits for this work!

Wow, what an incredible, danceable track! I wish I could hear this in a club because that's exactly where this song belongs. The rhythm is fantastic, and the transitions into the different variations are masterfully executed.

However, as Attila once said, "If this is chill-out, then Im out of control" smile. This track energizes me far more than it calms me down!

A brilliant song with amazing drive, smooth transitions, and an outstanding mix and master. Hats off to you! Best wishes, Manuela

Ahh, you are very sweet. This is me finding my way again musically. I was a bit lost, so I delved back into the Berliner Techno from Tresor I loved back in 98, added with all the knowledge and progressiveness I love to add, but kept the measures short and sweet and went all out at the end, only to shut it down with a cymbal. I had forgotten about being economical in the musical space and also spreading the instruments in a nice stereo field. I re-introduced myself to Valhalla Supermassive (Update to 4.0) but realized that being more tasteful in the mix was a better choice. I was commenting to my wife that I have moved away from Keyboard soloing and showing off musical hops to understanding the progress of building a track like this and being critical and economical with the measures. Moving it along with Percussion and teasing the listener for wanting more. We can always learn, and so I am learning. Always a student of Music. Bisous, and Merci for your kind synopsis.

Huh, it actually is quite chilled, who would have thought?! Nice use of the vocal snippet. Great beat too and lots of change ups and variations. Cool track!

Brilliant Steve!
On the other side, if this is chill, I'm out of controll. :-)
Your huge progy attitude is there as the instrument variations too.
Great track, a real treat!!!

Danke, My Chill may be relatively less Chill than others. If I'm in a traffic jam, give me some Thrash metal. maybe it's just me.

I always say you need to add progressive percussion as the song moves along to take the listener on a ride.

Hello crucethus, just listened to your track and found it as pounding and progressive from beginning to end, the bass and percussions never broke stride alongside the keys, guitars and various other instruments taking part in this hard hitting track...great track.

My wife is an electro/trance/dance fan. (poor one) :-)
Imagine the situation when a rocker tries to embrace this type of music... :-)
BUT ALL JOKE AWAY, YOUR CREATIONS ALWAYS TRANSFORM THE GENRE!!!
Because of your brilliant progressivity ... as the guitar chop at around 2.50 ...
great track Steve!

Danke

Dude!, I love Rock and metal just as much as I love the electronic world. I love melding the genres (you know that about me already). Music does not need to be gate-keeped by taste sometimes. Thanks as always!

FIRST OF ALL, BRILLIANT, SECOND WITH YOUR PERMISSION I WOULD LOVE TO "BORROW" THE GUITAR RIFF AT THE BEGINING. EXCELLENT WORK. THANKS FOR SHARING.

No Worries mate. That bass was from Music Radars Samples I believe bass Boutique. I have had that particular sound in my arsenal for many years. So it's Royalty free and you can enjoy and use with no worries, and no permissions from me mate!

I like it, lots of variations but can't specify like the musicians among us.
Now sorry for my comment: I listened with studio speakers and audio headset and heard something strange. From 00:23 to 01:24 I experienced a distortion. So I took the studio headset and heard a sub bass. After running the sound through an EQ I found a 20-35 Hz frequency that is considerably louder than the rest.
Again sorry if this was intentional and my equipment is simply not up to par :-)
crucethus
crucethus replied 27th Mar 2025 - 1 month ago
You were not wrong. There was a distorted Sub bass. Leftover Lasagne's Push Tech was the culprit. I used The Eighties Monster Kick Prest which pushed it over the edge. Also I usually listen on Multiple audio units (headphones and speakers) I did not do that. (Lazy, lazy, Lazy.) So I remastered it. Good ears mate and I appreciate you fo that.

Hello, it's wonderful to see you back here with fresh new music! I don't want to say that your break did you good, but for me, this has turned into a fantastic song. The marvelous drive, perfectly utilized breaks creating a beautiful arc of suspense, combined with the brilliantly arranged and orchestrated instruments, and the rhythm that immediately got me movingthis song has become one of my absolute favorites here at the moment. Well done! With love, Manuela.

Thank you So much Manuela, You are so sweet to review this in the way you do. I have revamped the studio (Yet again) and it is easier to produce now, so hopefully I will be inspired to make more music. merci!

Pretty wild man, so much going on and ever evolving. Fantastic synth work and like Dennel I was thinking funk when I heard that bass line at the start. All the best Zoot.

Euro -techno to the max indeed! This track was slammin' big time, I like how you opened up the track with some funky bass accents. From 0:53 to about 1:09 that thunderous kick drum was working out my headphones lol! A very fun and enjoyable track to groove to. I also like that you did several musical change ups heading towards the end part of the track.

Very nice production and sound quality.
