incomprehensible

By Jason Nijjer on May 22, 2022 10:21 pm

Away for the week in Phoenix, managed to find some time to put something together, thanks for listening and any comments, appreciate it.

the darkness of the synths and their placement in reverb is so lovely, and the overall progression keeps everything intriguing(my personal preference longs for a bit less distortion on those kicks - low end crackle feels strange, i can hear it especially between 8 - 16 seconds in... but not meant as a major criticism, just a suggestion that might give them more defined impact in the bass range)

Cool effect at 0:50 where you pull back the drums, get a ping pong delay on the voice before introducing the second movement of the track. That second movement is an interesting contrast to slow moody first movement. It is more mysterious. Very nice and intriguing track.

Absolutely agree about that distortion/crackle, noted it last minute and couldn’t get rid of it, every time I messed with things it would make them sound worse, in the end I left it as is

Holy !  This one is amazing!  Has a great groove.

Love the play between the different drum sounds.  Especially those snares.  Excellent pace throughout.  Yais I like!

Holy beat! Fantastic drop work. Kudos on the ending, too, not sure which plucked string instrument it is, but it's really lovely sounding.

Slight change in beat around :45 I like a lot, it kind of locked me in, was just a little less busy I think, but great drum stuff throughout, yeah, or the snare changes a bit in that part I like. Like the arps, voice is cool, always nice hearing some voice in the mix I think. this one grabs you and carries along!

Masterfully built around the sample.
