Another crazy creation....you got a talent for putting sounds together man! Although mixing technique could be improved on you have potential to be one of the best producers of ALL TIME ! *Kanye Voice lol but keep it up man love these unique crazy sounds so beautifully put together.

What a fun song, I love the synth that starts at the beginning, sounds like something Luke Vibert would use (I'm pretty sure he did use something like this in one of his songs). Sounds go along perfectly, and the song kinda has a summer feel to it. Very well constructed, good job.

xxxZigZagxxx responds:

I hadn't heard of Luke Vibert and he googled him... he seems like a good acid artist. Thanks for your kind words, they're really encouraging, Qvarcos :)

There was some really funky stuff going on in here, I liked it. The percussion was great and I really liked the trumpet-like synth.

Thanks Verbee. :)

Man you went crazy with drum programming here. How many sounds you have going on in just the 0:45 part? Kick, snare, bongo trash can thing, click, panned clap things, hats, maaaaan. I like the jingly vibraphone thing, too. Was the vocoder saying "dance" somewhere in there?

xxxZigZagxxx responds:

Thanks man. At the 0:45 part, I have: slowed down simple kick-snare loop; bassy kick; a really quiet dry clap going every beat; an 808 snare on every 3; another "rawer" snare doing more complex hits; single hi-hats trilling; a sped-up little bongo loop that goes by itself every so often (0:48, 0:52, 1:02, 1:07). I wanted to pick samples that resembled real drums but still had a sense of fakeness about them. I don't think I put any vocal samples other than the "ayy" samples in there. Which part does it sound like there's a vocoder going on?

Thanks so much for the feedback, phosphorusprocedure. I really appreciate it. :)
