woah, what tempo is that? 140 bpm?

definitley a good dark vibe. Thought the build
to the measures was not totally thought out,
but good for this sound.

interesting track.

btw, Maarten, I finalised the remix - Sounds
nothing like the orginal at all... the sounds or
the beats...nuttin like it. Anyway, watch out for
it. :-)

hehe, 170... (grins, lifts shoulders & head takes a 45 degree angle to the side.)  
Basically all my tracks get recorded in a live kinda manner, this brings some not so thought out builds now and then. I'm in need of a soundcard with multiple in's I guess.

Still very anxious to hear the remix man and your saying it's totally different only makes me more intrieged (spelling?)!

Cheers

so when Last Lap breaks a bit at 2:00 or so..the stabby sound..the lower one...would sound SICK with a dope hipassed delay

I like, tho, man. I wish NOTHING ever went boom boom boom boom, but...this is just so fucking aggressive that I cant help but say HELL YEAH.

String Temples! Wow, thats a really different direction for you Maarten, I like that quite a funky sound. Reminds me a bit of Plaid. Cool.

Last Lap - You crazy bastard! You're gonna end up breaking that 303! Ha ha, banging mate, might be my speakers but the kick sounded a wee bit high in pitch, other than that, as usual quality tune. Hey you're in the chart with A Paradox to silence - well done, quality.

Got the CD the other day but I have not had a chance to listen to it yet, and where's the track titles man????? ;) I will email you privately when I get the chance to have a good listen and I must do a disc for you too.

This is a great track. They'd have to carry me out of the club on a stretcher 90 seconds into the track   I think it all flows well too. Definately would work in a club. I can easily envision the crowd dancing....especially the group of cute girls over there near the right side.

I like your gif too. Don't know if I had noticed it moving in the past.

Thanks for the listen (and the comments / spelling correction)guys!
Oldskool, I plain forgot to write em down, you could see them on the 'puter though. Really looking forward to your comments & remarks.

I'm touched I got you to say something positive on 4/4 influx   and sorry to have given Sitar a heart-attack...

I recovered.   Posting a track is always a good way to get your spelling checked.

Gave a few quick listens:

Last Lap is a real burner! Love the break in the middle and the drums get quite tasty.

Paradox: This one didn't keep my interest as well. Good sounds, but they don't really go anywhere.

string Temples: Great groove! What synth is making that string? Lovin' it... this is the kind of song I like to trip out to. Good polyrhythms and counterpoint... keep doing more of this kind of stuff! I didn't get to the end, but what I was looking for was like a "halftime" section where the drums play slow (You know, kick on 1, snare on 3, slow hat) to change it up. Don't know if I'm describing this well, but you've heard it.

Keep working on the funkier grooves. I think you'll get more people's attention that way... you got skills!
