Hey guys, well I've been working with ableton for like 1.5 months or so and two years ago I was playing with reason for some time, so decided to make music again

Here is my new quite decent track called "Liudis" It consist of minimal beat loop and a bassline and some sample voice sounds... I learned to make these sounds myself by using mic... I think you wouldnt like idea that i used loops but i really suck at producing drums

So maybe some help would be very nice!
Myself personally I really like this track dont know about you waiting for feedback and critics!!! Hope you like it!! I think you should be able to download it from soundcloud!

Hi there .
Like the style, but the kick doesn't pop out as it should in this type of techno.
I don't like the piched down vocals as well

Except that if you work a bit on it, it can be very decent techno track ! I'd play it in my sets

(oh and maybe a wi too much reverb ...)
Bye ! !

hey! thanks for feed back, perhaps I should increase sidechaining for all chanels! But I will leave pitched down vocals it was my vision

Nice track!

Reverb is indeed too much on these tracks, make it a little bit more subtle.

Nice pecussion!

Nice ambiance!

Really don't like the straigth bassline, the sound or the line. sounds cheap. I like the vocals though, and the clicks and little sounds. Maybe cut down on the reverb, like said before, or cut some lows and mids from the reverb channel to make it brighter and thinner. The "biuuuuu" sound doesn't work for me at all. good rhytmic drive after breakdown.

peace

to me this could be a club banger.. get rid of the verbs ... and and the bitcrusher on that kick. Arrange it a bit better and you got a hit imo

edit : i like the straight flow. It might sound 'cheap', but in this track it really works so what the f...

Oh come on, what is it with the laziness of people these days...

If you listen to the drum loop, it really isn't too complicated to figure out that it is the typical electronic music drum setup, ie. kick-hat-kick&snap-hat repeat repeat repeat.

The track is alright, you should have more control over your effects, they seem to be going all over the place. Also, you could try cleaning up the sounds a little bit, like some of the samples make it sound very rough.

Pretty good for so little practice though. Keep working at it.
