RE: Cheetah
VERY er-1 drums, but nicely put together. Kinda pretty but not super characteristic apeggiator line. Shit speakers, so I can't hear all of the highs, but the dynamics sound decent. Good percs. Nice syncopation. Pretty melody line. You've been listening to a LOT of Orbital, and other British artists, I'd guess. I like the concepts, but am kinda burnt on the ER-1 sounds. It's taste, but I'm over the sound of that box, and think you'd do better with good old Roland box samples, tweeked a bit, or more Reaktor sounds, and sequenced in a more broken up fashion, and individual to the bar, more reflective of your other musical knowledge. At the cost of sounding like an asshole, I'd say it's well researched and written, and an excellent quality of sound, but I think it lacks the individuality that I'm sure you're capable of expressing, even if afraid of exposing. Let loose a bit!
