This is a really cool drum pattern, I would've let it evolve even slower, those atmospheric spaces between notes are sure enjoyable!

I think the track would definitely benifit from more BASSSSSSS

love when the clap comes around, now do double hand claps! XD

Some nice sounds here, especially when that modulating synth comes in at 2:00, reminds me I have a dr660 collecting dust, should try and do something with it.

Hahaha I take that benefit, man! no sweat!

I don't really know how to mix the track properly, so I was cautious with the bass levels, though I get your point. I'm afraid it has too much ringing hihats because I'm all used to pitch down everything in my muddy downtempo/hiphop tracks, yet I guess techno sounds more pristine.

Thanks a lot for the positive feedback

Oh, I'm really bad with drum machines. I mean: i truly love them, but after a while I sampled them and never use them after I tweak their samples. Only exception: my Behringer TR6 (606 clone).

Would love to have some WB members close so we could swap instruments for a few days, so we get the excitement of exploring a new box without the hoarding

slippy slidey synth line.

It's a mild surprise you're into techno this much, but it's an even bigger surprise you're producing it! A lot of your other output was not only downtempo (like you mentioned) but generally more berlin-style electronica, maybe krautrock.

I like what you did here. Suggestion: it's not exactly easy in Renoise, but I'd use some glue compression to make the drum kit sound tighter. And yes, more prominent bass wouldn't hurt!
