Yo!! Really nice track!!! Following! (U can check mine out if u want ha!)
as for tracks having to be dancefloor bombs, I should imagine that each label is different...plus the fact that most tracks that have an instant impact on the dancefloor also have a short shelf life...this is not one of those tracks..
well done..

Re: Does a track need to be "dance floor friendly"
I'm less and less into music that screams dancefloor. I'm more interested in music with personality and storytelling. There's not enough of that, as well as music that screams Timeless. That is where the challenge is at!Anteuro wrote:Do you guys think in todays market a track needs to be an instant dancefloor hit in order to get any attention from labels?
Do you lot think this has a viable place in electronic music, and is good enough to possibly be considered by labels? Even though it doesnt exactly 'scream' dancefloor?

i love dance music, but i only step onto a "dancefloor" once in a blue moon. for me home/headphone listen-ability is paramount. if it doesn't sound good in that setting i probably won't repeat listening to it again. oddly, on the flip side, music that is tailored to the dancefloor generally sounds good on a dancefloor. most of this music i find lacks appeal for home-listening pleasure.
bless king tubby for the remix, we can adapt and synthesize new purpose from existing music.

thats some solid dubtechno/dubhouse/deephouse/berlinafterhour-sound whatever you wanna call it.
there are tons of labels out there releasing this. i would recommend looking into the "whatpeoplehear"-onlineshop because they seem to focus around such labels from what i have noticed.
good luck, its good sound.
edit: one little note, the bassline-saturation is a bit questionable in the high mids. what plugin did you use? a little bit less would do it either or a better saturation-source.
