  1. does it have vocals dropped from a sample CD?

    'cos that was the only thing holding Asura's Life back from being classic to me

    i'm keen to hear this if it is similar

     

    they chose a great name - Distant System. i like it

  2. the vocals always turn me off

    they sound so cut and pasted. it is a shame when i am really enjoying some of the fat grooves, only to have a 'ethnic/tribal' vocal come in

    the music can sustain itself without them

  3. it's good to see some support for Cujorius One

    i've been meaning to make an Appreciation thread for them listing some of their sicker tracks

    their use of open/close hi-hats combos is criminal, such nice sliding between beats

    and i love their basslines, really sounds deep and full, sort of like Reefer Decree (must be a Danish thing)

    what are some of you guy's favourite Cujorius One tracks?

  4. what i dont like is the 4x4 kick in too many tracks, would be ok tracks without it for my taste.

     

    man i LOVE the 4X4 tracks...i find trance at that bpm to be super psychedelic

  5. ok

    Brainbow has been in constant rotation

    at first i didn't know what to make of it

    but now i am really enjoying the vibe

    the squeeky melody which comes in at the last few minutes is really nice

    genuine atmosphere too, that is well constructed rather than relying on some fat pads

     

    the vibe reminds me a little of Etnoscope. not the aesthetics of the sound, but the way it makes me feel

     

    bravo, definitely gonna cop the album

  6. i think it is because electronic music is very technical, and psy especially is very dependent upon sounding a certain way.

     

    you could have a great track written, but without all the technical know-how of mastering, eqing, mixing, the track will not be presented as well as it could be, and not compare to other 'cleaner and fuller' tracks.

     

    in a way it's a shame, because you have such a steep learning curve before you ever make a track that is even 'presentable'. but this would be the same in many other genres such as drum and bass, progressive house, etc.

     

    some of the more experimental styles don't require such a technical labour of mastering, etc, but even then they will still benefit from at least a bit of post-production.
