dude, that sounds wicked. The bass line is just insane, haha, hook me up with the tabs for that.
and it's really original, nice to see someone is coming up with new stuff these days.

Hey there,
Tabs huh, well - I can send a few .mid files your way if you'd like.
If you ever see this response and you want any of it just PM me and I'll get a few files your way.
Thank you for being able to appreciate this type of thing - not many people are into this type of stuff
very unique
I like the beat. Weird sounds in rhythm... wow. Very cool. The bass line sinks so perfectly into the track. Its one that you don't need to hear, because you feel it. Thats the best kind of bass line.
When phones are dialed on Earth, I think this song is what what entities in parallel universes hear.
Truly some crazy sounds were put into this with some strange method of organization. Its really hard to review this but I was glad to see LJC on the top 5 so I had to drop a comment. This song needs to go in a trippy flash. I think I might try and do that.
I hope I don't have to stuff like this to have a career in music because I can't even begin to grasp how you put this together. The organization and variation mix up so perfectly. I've been listening for a while, and although the bassline is pretty repetiive, I can't remember hearing the same pattern twice and I know the song must have looped at least 4 or 5 times by now. How? Mind blowing... my mind is blown.
Good one LJ, keep them coming.

:D
Let's see, "phones are dialed...parallel universes hear" that was great!
As far as having to "do stuff like this to have a career in music" - Don't worry at all about that, just look at my music career - ha ha - apparently doinf stuff like this is a pre-requisite for not ever having anything that resembles a career or fans XD
I really enjoyed your review.
Thanks again!
Not my style, but is good.
This reminds me distinctly of Metroid-esque music, which I believe it would be perfect for. Musically.. the lack of a real melody really drains the piece. Basically, it would be perfect as background for anything sci-fi, or scary. Keep it up.
LJCoffee responds:
Thanks Nal,
I appreciate your review - especially since you said that this really wasn't your thing. Wow - you really hit hard on the Diversity score :)
niceeeee.
the bass line was really catchy and the electronic sounding synths are a nice touch. sounds like it would fit in a game. keep up the good work. ttyl

I'm glad to hear that you liked it. If you can get another nine hundred thousand people to listen to it as well then I might have a chance at selling a CD some time :D
Thanks!
Ohhhh very good opening
loved that opening, thought for a second where it was going then, that bass (line) kick, came in and i thought 'Oh Yessssss!'
Lots of proverbial pots and pans being chucked about in this tune, thats your beat arrangement im on about, really off kilter, but freaking awesome.
It's quite an intensely moody and dark track, be absolutely terrible to hear hungover or coming down. great for a night out tho.
I think the main melodic synth may be a lil quiet compared to the beats, seems to be fighting for attention but its a minor gripe.
The production is spot on, full of musical energy and dynamism, pans are right, sound choice is bang on, like i said earlier that synth is desperately fighting for some space, it's either a case of rolling some of that bass off, or pushing it more into the mix. awesome tho.
5/5 mate.

LJCoffee responds:
Thanks for the review! There are, as you've mentioned, a few issues with levels - I'm blaming headphones for that. I still have not quite yet learned how to compensate for what I think I hear through cans.
I made two mistakes on this one, I created it using headphones, tweaked things and then only ran it through externals for a few quick adjustments - almost always a mintake.
The second has more to do with compression. I usually apply a bit of compression to certain elements as well as a little medium compression to the master bus - with this one I bounced everything and then cut it up a little to create the stutters and repeats here and there. By doing that, I compressed everything during the bounce and then it all got recompressed during the export.
That may be why certain instruments feel like they're fighting for freq space and/or why the volume levels are off a bit.
Thanks again - let me know when you have some new stuff up.
