I really like the untitled track. It sounds like it's "growing" the whole way through, if you know what I mean.
Are you mixing with a subwoofer? I find on a lot of basslines I experiment with, as well as on this track, the frequency of the bassline is a little too low for my speakers. I'm using Alesis M1 monitors, and when it gets too low you start hearing some port noise. The bass is sort of there, but not 100%. It's weird because some good records sound like they're playing way lower and the bass is loud and gripping, But when I'm playing around with my gear I can't seem to reproduce it. Your bassline is killer though. Maybe it's just this room or something, but if the track isn't headed strictly for the dance floor, maybe you'd consider adding some higher overtones to the bassline to make it more audible on lesser equipment. I can only imagine the frapping if I listened to it in my car, which has nothing special for a stereo. Some really good tracks tend to avoid that by playing with overtones (I believe). The second track is cool but not as epic sounding as the first, which I gather is the idea. Being a fan of epic sounding shit, I'd be biased. Let me know what you think about the bass - maybe it's my gear and I'm just an amateur, I don't know. good shit -----Original Message----- From: Mike Kenney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: June 1, 2002 5:39 PM To: Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List Subject: [dnb-prod] New tunes from MK2 collaborations Ok here are 2 new tunes that I made in May in 2 different collaborative efforts. The first being a tune from myself and Nathan Curry under our usual psuedonym: Kindred Spirit. We haven't decided on a name for the tune yet so as for now it's untitled. Here's the link: http://www.madbass.com/tunes/KINDREDSPIRIT_untitled.ram The second tunes is from mysels and Jesse Brause (from Charlotte, NC). This is a more upbeat aggressive - but not really dark - kinda tune. It called "On The Run". http://www.madbass.com/tunes/MK2JESSE_ontherun.ram as always direct comments, constructive criticism, requests to me.
