This is great! I get great stuff out of the Rytm at around 140 BPM.

I took a break for a year and a half, and have started making again in the past three months, but these are from when it was all about 140-160 for me.

Thanks @okpk

A good mate who loves producing gave me a review which was like he jumped into my head, read my thoughts and motivation behind my sound choices, and repeated them back to me.
Although I don’t know about Cocktail Part and I’ve never heard of Filter Dread tbh.

Blockquote“Thanks for thinking of me for the share man, appreciate it. Love your creative vibe.

Right, just been listening on my headphones… some quick thoughts:

Loving your gun fingers!!! Some super sharp shooters shooting super sharp shots! YES! Also you’ve got mad staccato robotic dance skills. Like :+1:

Really like the intro sounds - reminds me of birds tweeting, good reverb.

When the beat kicks in at 0:40! Deadly. I REALLY like how that just drops in. GUNFINGERS!!! :point_up::point_up::fire::fire:

Then goes a little abstract, initially I was feeling that I was missing some structure to it, but actually it works - keeping you a bit off guard, so when that bass comes in at about 2:50 it locks you back in. I like that little DJ sample.
I really like that filtered synth at 5:00! Love that sound. You’ve got some pure rave sounds going on! :orange_heart: I like that melody that comes in at 5:30. And then that b-line and beat kicks in again :fire::fire::fire::fire::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes:
I think my fave bass line is the one that comes in about 10:10. That is pure rave. Sounds really good detuned :ok_hand:
Also the hits at about 13:10 sound very fresh - reminds me of the Shattered Retina EP by Cocktail Party Effect, that came out recently on Tectonic. The whole thing had a kinda Filter Dread vibe - but done in your own unique and creative way.

Overall I reckon that with all your ideas, it could be edited into maybe 3 or 4 separate tracks to make a wicked EP, part of me would love to hear your ideas developed into more structured tracks (thinking purely as a DJ), BUT maybe that would lose part of what makes it yours - your free-flowing creativity. It feels spontaneous. Fresh. Unpredictable. It feels like a mini DJ set - It plays with expectations, teasing with almost familiar rave stabs, before spinning away. Love your energy in this.

Anyway just some thoughts! Enjoyed seeing you vibe off of it.”

Not a genre I’m well-versed in but the headbangin and hand gestures make it for me. Love it when people are totally down with their shit.

Always good to hear. Energy is definitely something people can vibe off.
After a session it feels like I went for a workout.
