Music's not bad. If I may make a suggestions from an artistic standpoint, the heavy and steady bass line (bum bum bum bum bum) is a bit annoying/distracting. I know it's standard fair in techno because it makes it easier to dance to it, but break free from the mold! Reinvent the genre even as you transcend it! :lol:
-
Yea Num good point, I am getting sick of the "Fruty Kick" myself actualy; I use it for every song. Hey atleast "Terminator's Dance" did not have it.
-
Num, witch songs in spesific were you talking about?

Num, witch songs in spesific were you talking about?
Just about all of them. THere's always some sort of low, heavy bass beating that I rather dislike in just about every single dance techno in existance.
-
Well, I gess you are not the type of person to listin to Dance Techno then...
Although, I will try some songs with mo bass beating in them, have no clue how they will come out.
(My sitiuation is a bit worse Num, I used the same exsact plugin for all most all my heavy bass beating.)

Well I AM a techno-liker kind of person, and I to find the bassline to be a bit er... irritating. But before you start flaming or crying :P ,here's why:
Reasons why I don't like your bassline:- It is too repetitive, yet is it not. Trance/techno/dancemusic basslines are usually there to support the track; to give it a good background. Basslines are the pumpin' bottom of the track. usually, they fill the lower EQ parts of the track. Yours is quite high(EQ-wise), and sounds more like a lead. Listen to this example of an excellent bassline (in my eyes): F-fact - Yonaguni (the fall of Atlantis) (http://www.dance-industries.com/view_artist.php?ID=1458&track=9884)
or this more repetitive one:
DJ Ghost - Arabian Rave (http://www.sectionzmusic.com/detail.asp?SZID=18197) - It is not so interesting soundwise, as it is a standard sinus (is it?) synth
- As in first reason: try to use lower notes for the base
The rest of the tracks are quite allright, even though there's still a lot of time needed to improve your sound and songstructure. 'oefening baart kunst', so to say.

Alright, thanks for the advice.
-
Henk I am a little confused here, the F-Fact Bass Beating sounds as heavy and as load as in my music.
-
He means pitch I believe. At least, that's how I read it.

Yes I did, or something like that. I meant the height of the notes for the bass, which are quite high in Bots's tracks. Usually they are lower, to fill the complete EQ range. Now it sounds a bit superficial, shallow.
-
Ok I will try to fill up the whole EQ range next time I make a song, You also have to work on what to put into the EQ range that wont sound like static, I also always go over the "wave valume limit" not sure what the offisial name is , (I mean the waves go off the scale) I need to work on that.
This are the first songs I have done and I really did not pay attention to this things, for one I could of added more 3 dimentional sound.
Once again thanks for your help , it is greatly appreciated.

What exactly does the self mutating executable actually do on the computer? Does it just randomly go along?

Its like darwinbots only with actual programs as a bot. Simuler to evolving vegs alone. But with infinite possibilitys the coolest being a matrix in real life senerio (and the lest likly one too based on the 9 days I siccsfully ran the latest virsion) Best thing it ever did was originaly knok out Northern. Maybe did 50 phone calls and tryed to print out half a harddrive - Funny things it does in msdos.
