acheadKeymasterHello strangers… been a while since I came on here been pretty busy with a umber of things… DJing and production included of course!
As you may or may not know I used to post alot of "works in progress" on here and then never take them any further…
Finally though I actually finished one… it’s a bleepy tech/electro track that’s been getting alot of play from local DJ’s. Alot of you aren’t going to like it, it’s very specific to the nights we play and the crowd we play to… some of you may even hate it… but a few of you will hopefuly love it!
Here’s the Facebook page…
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=7112991675Here’s the Myspace page (although we check it/use it much less often)…
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu … =190851170Add the song on your myspace!
Can you all join as facebook fans? And add us on Myspace. Then if your feeling ultra generous you can pass the links around to friends who are into electro and house and ting…
Also any of you who might DJ or know DJ’s in the genre feel free to PM me and i’ll send you the link to the full MP3 promo pack with the remix (Reflex Mimimal Remix) included.
It’s getting played a by a few top DJ’s already up here in the norf and getting great reactions form both the funky house scene AND the electro/minimal scenes.

acapellaKeymasterEy Up Crin – This is a nice surpirse. Glad to hear you’re doing well.
This nearly blew ma ears off as soon as it started.. awesome production levelling on the low-end.
Loving the break @ 1min.
Here it goes, ah settled in nicely.. rompastompathon.
2:30 another layer coming in..
Overall solid track, I can see it doing the right thing on zee dancefloor.
A little too minimal for me and I’m always looking out for more production trickery with anything like this so as to make it stand out from the rest. Would like to hear some HBP filtration on the progressive bassline that sticks throughout as a nice ‘touch’ – would lovely to have heard some ‘shuffly hats’ for sure, actually stripping it back one stage further, a slight swing/shuffle feel to this one Crin could send it down a new ‘groove’ path altogether.
Very impressed, 8/10 mate.
Regards.

acheadKeymasterThanks for the positive feedback Pilch!
Also thanks for the suggestions, this tune has had so many tweaks to it that it’s finally just had to settle at this… the minmal sound is deliberate really, my current DJ audience and the general scene round here straddles grinding electro and pumping minimal so this is aimed in the middle.
I’d hoping to get this signed, i’m sure if it does ther’ll be a few tweaks before it goes to remaster. One of those is certainly gonna be a subtle filter on the bassline is prob gonna enter there 😉
Yeah the bottom end is sounding nice huh? Took alot of fiddling and some very much needed assitance from a good mutual friend of ours. 😉
If you go on Facebook/Myspazz there’s a remix by our very own Tim Gosden too

If you know any DJ’s / Labels this would be suitable for can you PM/email me dude?
Glad you like it mate, means alot to get a good review from yourself.

BParticipantMan this is cool especially the extra layers added @ 2:30
Bassline is tight, alot of fideling to get it right has payed off…
Possible to get a full version @ 320kbps?
AdSense 336x280December 7, 2007 at 7:53 am #638730
andycessfordParticipantgot the PM cheers.
Have been playing this a lot today and it is growing even more on me!!
AdSense 336x280December 7, 2007 at 12:28 pm #638741
acheadKeymasterThanks Silversix, check your PM’s.
Thanks again Andy, yeah it grows on your the more you listen to it, I think it’s cos it’s something a little different while still being solidly in electro/tech genre.
AdSense 336x280December 8, 2007 at 12:53 pm #638807
tim.gosdenParticipantGood work, even if I do say so myself [being that I remixed it! HA]
Looks like its gonna be a big track in the underground electro breaks world.!!

De-Fine musicParticipantHi Crin,
Good solid sound you got there mate, really liked the glitchy fax noises and all the blips and spats.
Thought it could do with a variation in bass here and there maybe, other than that, quality stuff.
AdSense 336x280December 8, 2007 at 2:50 pm #638813
acheadKeymasterDe-fine, thanks for the positive comments, yeah the bassline is pretty monotonous, but that’s intentional, kind like "I Thought inside Out" by Chris Lake and Deadmau5 which is currently my favourite track. Like Pilch said, it could maybe do with an effect that subtly morphs around over the course of the track. Will maybe, make that tweak if it gets signed. For now this is it s it’s the version that’s getting played about (by an ever increasing circle of dj’s!)
It’s been played at Filth in Leeds and Puuuurfect Electro and had good reactions and it’s getting an airing at Bedlam next week.
If you want a copy of the 320kbps PM me

Oh and cheers Tim 😉
Any one who wants to listen to Tim’s remix it’s the Reflex Minimal remix on Myspazz/Facebook

tim.gosdenParticipantand boy is a hot mix… hahaha

SolarliteParticipantMate, this tune is bangin’, though I don’t think I could dance to it, as that may require another layer, possibly strings…
How does it go down in the clubs, do you get people dancing to it?
Whichever way, well done, it’s bloody good.
AdSense 336x280December 9, 2007 at 7:25 pm #638916
acheadKeymasterYeah gets the people moving! I’m not sure why you think a track needs strings to make people dance! :p I don’t think I have a single record in my bag with strings actually these days, they don’t crop up much in the electro/tech scene. I guess it depends on your crowd really, I wrote this track with a specific scene in mind. What do you usually play?
Thanks for the postive feedback mate, very much appreciated! glad you like it!
AdSense 336x280December 9, 2007 at 7:53 pm #638917
SolarliteParticipantHaha, I’m no DJ! You’re the man who knows what he’s doing, I’m just talking from a professional clubber’s point of view. If you get them dancing, you’ve got a winner.
Seriously, this stuff is shit hot.

vhsplayerchrisParticipanti usually post in the hip hop section. i picked this song because the title stuck out from others.
the track had some nice pure tones. i think climax could’ve used some added body.AdSense 336x280December 10, 2007 at 12:25 pm #638974
acheadKeymasterjdmdj –
Thanks man.vhsplayerchris –
The title stood out!? Ha ha well I guess that’s a plus!
I know where your coming from with the climax, I tried a few different versions and there was a vfersion wherre the climax went NUTS but it stopped people dancing, i think it was too much, I reckon I remix might be on the cards with a less minimal climax! Glad you liked it, thanks for the feedback.AdSense 336x280December 10, 2007 at 8:39 pm #639036

jefpeaceParticipantOkay, I’ve listened to this half a dozen times and I’ve lost 6 pounds … I’ve got to stop listening to it whilst’ I’ve still got at least a little fat on my body.
Yeah, killer dance track and a sure winner in any club … at least I think so.
Thanks for posting this and looking forward to seeing more of your work here!

Maybe I should start marketing it as a weight loss product? 😉
Define- Did you say something about a remix or did I imagine that?
