I just found this amazing band, Star One, on Spotify. Awesome music. Track #2 is best so far.

thanks for the feedback al, i can imagine it's not your sort of thing. i don't really know what you mean by cd skip? maybe the subs?

i didn't use one fruity loops stock sound as a matter of fact, they are all from other places. i was fairly pleased with it overall, i thought the bassline that starts after 2:15 was pretty good. i'm going to clean up the mix slightly (make the kick and subs louder and turn the hats down a touch) then put it out a bit wider. after that i'm going to start working on some brasilian funk tracks that i've had in mind for some time.

Your other stuff was better, Cockney

this my latest tune, it's an attempt to recreate that minimal techno sound circa 2005/6. it's not finished yet (i need to sort out a few things on the mixing) but let me know what you think.

What's with that thing that sounds like a metronome? Is that necessary in techno music? There's something about it that sounds off-putting... like it sounds like a CD skip. The way it fades out is sonically bothersome to me. I can't explain it.

To be honest, I don't really like this. The sounds scream Fruity Loops stock sounds. There are loads of free samples out there, you know.

And the minimalism of it makes it dull. Sorry, Cockney. Not feeling it. But again, my judgment of this genre isn't very meaningful.

A-ha made other songs besides Take On Me? I notice that their singer sings in English so much instead of Norwegian.

Loads of them. Quite a few great ones too.

a knock on something is like a strike against something.

Strike against? If anything, the song is about what God is for us and what we are for him.
