Hey all, it’s been a while. Really happy with how this Melodic Deep House Number has come along. Any and all thoughts are welcome.

Really great track.

A mixnote. Your kick is really heavy and eats up a lot of space in the mix. It can be turned down or as a last resort, turn the deep lows on it down with a shelf.

Other than that it sounds really good.

  Thanks Piv. Thinking a solve for that could be the reducing the db at fader or low shelf and adding transient to keep the level consistent.

That did it. 6DB shelf, and make up the gain with smack attack to reshape the kick a little. Might do some more work to the vocals, and maybe add a piano under the main synth for color. Or, maybe she’s…Read More

  Realy nice track Scott, reminds me of some of Hot Chip’s deeper stuff which is a big compliment from me. Only issue I found was there was a bit too much saturation on the instruments, seemed like you could tone it down on the bass and leads for a cleaner sound – got particularly noticable around 2:40 ish, just felt like everything could be dialed…Read More

    I’ll take that compliment, cheers mate! Also a huge HC fan here. Yes, there’s a filter that’s opening on the Dotted 4th main lead that’s driving that section. Will try leaving the filter movement but perhaps dialing back the decapitator a bit.

  So much better. Melodic Techno is not kick focused, its just there making the groove. 🙂 This is by far the best you have made. The saturation Ben is talking about seems right. Do you open a filter a bit that makes your saturation sound more dominant, Now I didn’t notice it on first run. Maybe because I listen on speakers. Second time I noticed…Read More

    I know what you mean about headphones vs speakers. Definitely more noticeable on the cans than monitors or hifi. Will see what reducing the saturation a bit does.

      Took 7DB shelf out of the bassline too. Reduced the saturation and filter cutoff of the main synth to open the mix up. Added a vocoder to the vocal which found it being way more in-line with what I’d originally had in mind. Thanks for the feedback, made a big difference.…Read More

Really nice Remix, sound is also really really good. I wouldn’t mix it much, because it already sounds like you took care of most of that in production. dont know what is wrong with the kick?

    Sounds really good Tim, like the stuttery orchestral vox that come in at 1:50ish. Only quibble for me is the arrangement at the start, the beats come in at 0:20 then you go into a breakdown at 0:40, would like to hear more beats once theyve started, so maybe put the breakdown at the start before the beats come in.
    
    Side note, I also appear to have…Read More

hey guys this is V4 i changed the intro as Ben suggested which i think sounds much better, add a few small fx to the good/evil vocal in places for variation, i removed the snare roll but kept the kick roll into the drop, i changed the reese bass sound for a more gritty feeling reese and did some sound work and added some thermal vst for a bit of…Read More

    Nice one man, just listening now.
    
    – I like the longer intro on this one, and the extra vox effects are great.
    – Love the use of the OG bassline right before the drop, that’s awesome.
    – your bassline is sick for sure too, nice addition with the other one periodically
    – glitchy beat is great and the addition of the amen is perfect
    – great switch…Read More

Hey Tim, sounds great. My only comment would be maybe it could use a little more action in the sub bass. The drum programming is top notch! Lovely.

Ok, restarting this thread on the wall. Here’s what I think is my final version of my remix of Ben Hunt’s Midsummer. It’s D&B but not your regular style, more floaty. I tried to pay homage to the original while keeping it fresh.

Let me know what you think!…Read More

Hey John Nice work i have to go back and listen to Been original but as for a DnB track i like this has nice vibes i liked that break down at 2.15 really cool the only thing i felt was the drums/percs could shine thru slightly around 3.30 area as there are the synths etc.. but this may be my taste overall nice work mate, BTW i haven’t forgotten…Read More

  Nice, thanks for listening man! I’ll take a look at bringing the drums out a bit more around that time.
  
  Looking forward to hearing your Three Beggars remix

    Sounding great to me mate, that new synth is definitely sitting better to my ears.

That plucky melody at the start reminds me a little of Girl/Boy song by Aphex. Only a good thing. The snare seems to be poking out in the mix a little more, not sure if that’s because it’s on the dry side, or glue, or gain? But it could be in there. anit more i think. Structure and vibe is tops.

Hey folks, new track here from me. Been a few months since I worked on anything new of my own so felt a bit out of the game and had to remind myself of a few old tricks, but hopefully this one sounds ok – 114 bpm chuggy acid thing.

Partciularly interested in how the low end is sounding, have some new headphones which seem to boost the bass (in…Read More

You can easily turn that kick 1dB down and remove some of the saturation/clipping on it. there is no need for it and your mix will get more clean low. It’s a common problem in your music that you overcook the kicks a bit. Anyway the rest sounds really good, and is the typical Ben Hunt style.

  Cheers Piv, yeah the kick does sound a bit overdone with fresh ears this morning. Easy fix though, thanks.

    Lowered the kick and took some saturation off. Also renamed to Spellbound as it sounds less clunky…

      Bass and kick is working nicely. Sounding like a mix between Herbert and Lindstrom. Which I would have to assume is something you’re going for. Great shuffle on the top loop hats. Not 100% sold on that last noisy lead after the break at 4:30. Feels really full compared to the airyness of the rest of the track. It worked earlier better as stabs.…Read More
