Had to make it quick this week because i'm on vacation for some days. That's why i couldn't tighten this track more, but i hope you guys can sweat it out anyway smile

Thanks a lot for listening and any feedback!!!

That Autechre-ish beat really kicks it!!! Now I get the "sidechain" tag... That whole atmosphere dissapearing ducked by the kickdrum, makes me want to catch the melody and not losing it under that sea of glitch.

The whole part that comes in after the high pass filter breakdown reminds me of those good old Squarepusher days. More glitching wizardry.

Pretty good one. Still guessing how do you create your artwork.

Gritty -- seems tight to me!

Your art reminds me of Schwitter's Merzbau.

Tight track, really dig the chaotic glitching towards the end.

I second this!

Oh man, oh man oh man. This is super. That sidechaining works really well. And I agree with Jim, seems tight to me. The mix sits really nicely too, everything is clear.

PS. +Fav so I don't miss your submissions.

Excellent stuff.  Love the first quarter and the mad ending.  The mix works well!

Awesome. Must have been so much work but it sounds so playful.

Massive!! Really love the flangery/am-ish thing that's layered (?) on the BD, I found that the subtle changes to that throughout the track was more than enough to hold my attention, all the time curious to see what "it would do next" smile It's almost like the BD is the main theme of the song! Awesome work big_smile

THE SPACEEEEEEEEEE. You nailed it. Just the right amount of release on that SC. How do you get those vinyl sounding noises in the beginning? samples?

the sound of the drums in this is immaculate! wow they sound great!  I like the spacey open pad part and the intro really caught my attention.  Not a clue how you got this tight of a sound but it sounds so good.  Crazy bleeps and blurps towards the end too! smile  Nice work!

Sweatin' it till slippery!

Thanks a lot, Mr. Mort! Always happy to see you stopping by! With "vinyl noises" do you mean the crackle in the beginning? If so it's actually part of the fading in drums/hihats. Maybe the saturated reverb of the incoming pad adds a bit to the "vinyl" feeling. 

this is really good! big_smile

damn those are some sick beets.

This is awesome. I love those crazy, unique glitches! I'm always impressed that you not only finish a tight track but ALSO bad ass artwork! smile

Amazing stuff! I really like those rhythms.
