        I think it may be that your delay timing is set too sharply different from your tempo

        Since u have very noticeable delay, the timing is important and needs to be based on your tempo otherwise the echos will play out of sync with the song

        to calculate the correct delay time in milliseconds, requires some math.

        @Thoko: hey dude, im not sure what your refering to as there is no delay in this track, theres just a reverb at 50% with a 5sec decay and that would be the only thing that sounds a little strange but its intentional. All my delay plugins in live do the math for me if I use them but thanks for the link.

  I decided to do a Deep House mix as its a genre I'm becoming more involved with and I will hopefully be doing a heap of Deep/Funky house mixes over the upcoming Australian Summer. As always, this mix is live on my decks. Please tell me what you think and more importantly, enjoy it :)DOWNLOAD: 3...

  **I made this track, besides the drums, COMPLETELY out of feedback** (jumbling a cord into my laptop through my monitors). The power of Ableton to me is incredible and I'm extremely happy with the end result. The drums were a combination of a programmed drum rack out of Ableton with hi hat and cy...

  Recorded this track with a few other guys at my mates place in Wamboin, NSW. When I'm out in the "country", its a different vibe and that's what I tried to capture. One of my friends brought a harmonica along and so we did some recordings through my MacBook mic. Even though the microphone is obvi...

        cool stuff - a phat sound - its like three synths were used at once to fill out the low, mid and hi ends, giving an embellished and thick product. also that drum hit, i have heard it before and it works well with the beat.

  Yeah, get all your woops woops out of the way, I decided to do a remix of this track even though its a bit dated and it all fell into place quite nicely. I "mastered" this by limiting the master and then pushing it so ontop of 320kbps mp3 compression so keep that in mind, though I think you could...

  This is a reworking of the J Dilla beat "Gobstopper", from his album donuts. People discribe Dilla's work as "a beautiful mess" and I hope I captured that in some way with this beat, with its unexpected white noise, stopping, and beat shuffles. Looking foward to trying this one out at a party in ...

  Aussie Hip Hop beat for some rapper's I know. I love it but obviously the bass patch needs to be polished up, the only reason i sang on it at the end of the track was so I wouldn't forget the melody haha :P. Enjoy! Please tell me what else it needs!

        Overall the song is good but i think it has issues with the arrangement and the flow. maybe a stronger bassline during choruses to spice it up and even some supporting melodies like strings

     2. djbricksta

        djbricksta on October 29, 2009 10:54

        @Thoko: Its a chilled hip hop song man, with a dillaesque arrangement hence the randomness. Not trying to make it high energy and its designed for a rapper over the top with the two chorusy bits. It will all be clear when I get a dude from the states on this :)

  I got back into writing hip hop again, this is my first effort. Couldn't be happier, just got to fix up a problem im having with the tightness of a sampled drum loop and this is done. I love this song.
