    @5:00 "Energy" caught my ear, i´d say that one

    You have a certain sound and i always recognise it, could you share your master chain and/or kick effects?Do u use Trackspacer?
    And, do you layer kicks and claps/hats etc.?

    Ok, thanks. Yes, i use Trackspacer. I seldom layer kicks but do layer claps and hats. Sometimes open and closed HH play at the same time, lol. But i see "my drummer" as a 16 armed octopus anyway... ;)
    edit: Oh and and master chain is T-Racks tape plugin, Mixroom, Bassroom, Softube Weiss Maximizer.
    edit 2: Kick sometimes gets Voxengo LFPunch.

    T-Racks Tape is the only one i consider worthy (and actually use regurglarly).

    I listened to the whole thing and wrote some notes, like I usually do in my DAW. Meaning, immediate impressions I will go back to later.


    The vocal in the first one has that Green Velvet thing going to it. I like this one, but I think it could use a four/four. I'd finish this one for sure.

    Second track, the kick is great. The water noises are annoying and i really dislike the vocal chop that has the most going on in it. the others might work.

    Third track, too short a clip. I'd keep going on that one. That vocal probably has to go as it is very identifiable. Maybe you do not care.

    Fourth Track with the "energy sample", Vocal samples get repetitive. It's too short, but I'd work on that one more.

    Fifth one, you have a bleeping loop in there that is on the abstract side, but there are two parts of it. I would get rid of the one that is more rolling/bubbling. The one that sounds like a drummer could play, i'd probably leave that one.

    The breakdown at 9:50 gets deeper house again. This is another one to expand upon.

    Uplifter into track @ 11:05, this one is nice! Finish this one. This is a track you could hear Mark Grant or Derrick Carter playing.

    At 12 minutes-ish, I like this one too. But I think the woodblock sample you are using is too prominent in your mix.

    AT 14:40, this is another one I would keep going on.

    Nice production indeed man! Very clean and also fun for the style of music as well. I'm not always into this style but I definitely like your style. I would say in my humble opinion that you have your own sound and feeling which is what we strive for as artists.

    Thanks guys, especially for the extensive track notes! I will work on the tracks and surely keep those points in mind!
