Backyard Bench

Yeah, yeah, side chain compression. Can't help it. Again, produced on a time budget. I like the groove of this one. I've been experimenting with two things here: Doing a house track on a 3/4 signature and also morphing the heavily side chained track into an uncompressed version using abletons cross fader. Works quite well I think.

Nice track. I like the 3/4 time and the cross fader idea.

I def like the use of the 3/4 time signature, it gives that cool shuffle feel to the track.  Nice job!

This is really cool, I hear a little 12/8 feel half way through if you pay attention to the bass like sound. I just got done listening to Robert Hood's fireside chat so I can't help but compare this to him, with the poly-rhythms. I've tried to do stuff like this before but It never quite turns out as good.
