This is something I almost always forget to do.
Everything is always
centre stage and stereo in my tracks is usually only from reverb.
Must remember to do this in future. Thanks for that.
Yup. See my comment to your other, earlier song.
Distortion was most definitely used on purpose, but if
you think
there's some that sounds out of place, then it could be something I
didn't put there. Can you be a little more specific? Which sound,
and where, is distorted?
(scratching my head) This afternoon it sounded much worse, now I'm less
inclined to find faults.
E.g. the sound that's at 03:01 ... 03:02
It seems like it was sent through a bad preamp or something. I "feel"
what you were trying to say by using distortion there, but maybe I would
use a different _kind_ of distortion.
I dunno... I listened with a very critical ear at first. Now I'm ready
to go to sleep and I'm more at peace with the world. :-)
It would be interesting to re-listen to it after spacing out the sound
stage with a lot more panning.
It could be that some of the sounds overlap
too much in frequency.
Well, that's a classic issue, isn't it?
True, but doing Kraftwek-style stuff now would perhaps
be a bit
cheesy. Kinda like going back to mid-90's rave tracks and just
speeding up some old song or themetune and adding a break-kneck beat.
Although, now I've said it, I'd love to have a go at that. I have a
real soft spot for the old "bangin' choons". Where did I put that
Smart E's record?
(thumbs-up)
Keep us posted on that. ;-)
