Yet again another rough track

finally updated this:



Black Pepper by ekkobot



feedback welcome as usual :slight_smile:

Yo dude,



I really enjoyed that. I don’t know why you commented on working on your melodic elements, as I think these are the star of the show here and are a definite driving force. The bassline has a 80s electro-tech vibe that lends itself to a deep house feel, the keys, perc and off-set elements really work well.



The kicks, for me, need a different layer to them, but then again, I have a tendancy for over-doing my kicks, and suddenly the nice ‘deep house’ track I’m working on turns into a techy monster. I love the how the kicks work with the track, I’d just like to hear something subby under them to widen that field.



I’d also love to hear some heavy reverbs in action here… The track is begging for some dreamy, trippy elements… If I had that track in my mix I’d be playing with the efx for most it… I think sometimes on a track like this the reverbs can really gel it together.



The mixdown is great, I hear all the elements very clear and unique… there’s nothing I would add or take away… Spot on!



But yeah, the melody is seriously nice. I dunno, maybe it’s just me, but I was having flashbacks of Bladerunner and Tron… So its defo appeals to the nerdy retro sci-fi cult side of me! :slight_smile:



Hope the feedback is constructive dude! Looking forward to hearing more.

adams right the kick could have a little more but as for the rest of the elements they really sit nicely. Very interesting



Id add a touch more variation but thats just because im more a jacking person rather than progressive

hey thanks for the feedback people, glad you liked it, its something i will come back to one day, i’m on the look out for a more interesting sounding delay for the main melody and yeah i’ll fill it out eventually, the kick i dunno i have a fondness for those kinda weak but still kinda punchy sounding ones… i dunno i’m sure i could improve it someway, anywahy cheers for listening :slight_smile:

Hey you should really make an effort to finish this!!!

updated this :slight_smile:
