    It's great overall really, sounds top notch, proper Brejcha vibes there. :disco:

    Personally think you have enough going on for two tracks here, I kinda dunno what the theme of the track is by the end, motifs change every drop, so in return storytelling is somehow lost on me, but if I was high as kite on a rave, I would probably just embrace the madness and play along.

    :mates:

    "Redux A Chorus" on the other hand is really cohesive, amazing work! "Get Over It" too, "So Bored" and pretty much everything down the line, top notch stuff!

    Thnx man, yeah the first track is suppose to end at 7.30 i extended it and reintroduced the first drop, i was going to do something new there, just havent done it, i wanted a long track, so i will in the end delete the extended bars or make something extravagant.
    It it a bit messy, needs work and better arrangement, i just went with it basically
    Thanks for feedback, Boris is my main inspiration, i have others aswell, Maksim Dark, Droplex etc.

    But i feel like im getting pretty ok, and i dont promote my music i just upload it and dont send it, besides now, just found this forum so i will be working on my music some more before i send it to labels.

    If anyone else has some feedback to give, id appreciate it. But thanks for the feedback, maybe ill make an 6 track album with the latest ones.

    All the best

    Maybe it's a noob opinion, still to me it feels like if I am in a club or something and music playing in the background. I can imagine a myriad of situations to go along....

    Hope you won't feel bad...
    I Just feel it that way :dj:

    No thats fine, track is extended, so i should make a better third part or delete the last 2 minutes, i have other tracks thats not as confusing, feedback isnt a bad thing.

    Thanks for your input!

    I don't meant to say it's confusing, rather It feels more to me in cinematic context of a theme. Like say in a scene at critical moment of a story where someone in a clubhouse searching for something and glancing over different characters..

    It kinda reminds me of Something I can't remember but the first thing that comes to my mind are scenes from tron legacy

    Aha okey, well, it is a bit of story telling, making music, there is the intro and buildups, choruses, bridges etc, everything has its own variation and in the end it needs to fit and make the story complete, like a animee eposide or whatever.

    My music is very experimental which is why i like to get feedback, i have my inspirations but i try to make in my own style and what i like :)

    So feedback is important, appreciate it :)

    I'm not very familliar with Minimal Techno, but should it lack reverbs/delays?
    Also should the arrangement sound like random assortment of FX on top of a very basic bassline?
    The mix is flawless dynamics-wise and in terms of spectre, but it sounds not just empty, it sounds barren.

    Listen to the tracks below, how do you feel about those? like the top 6.

    The track in question is not flawless, and thats why i need the feedback, i hear what you are saying, i agree, this is not the final version,
    And what would you want to have different?
    The bassline is two one more audible and one subbass but still have filter opening up, basic yeah nothing special.

    The Fx is simple samples, but i automate alot of FX plugins, so im not lazy, there is like 3 fx samples from sample pack rest is automated fx, or bounced track then manipulated!
