Massive Electro House Track by DJ Collision
Posted on: 19.01.2011 by Tierra Barbish
This is a song I just threw together in about 8 hours, and may spend some more time perfecting it.

EDIT! :

I just sent this track to Porter Robinson and got some GREAT feedback! I'm also buying some Mackie MR8's to start producing with! If all goes well I'll have a great track when I spend about a week fixing things with Porters feedback and the balanced speakers. So for now, the original mix is to just hold off until the completely re-mastered, and refinished track. I will post when it's done, which will be within a week. If anybody wants anything to be added to, and or changed, please tell me before next Monday!


Please comment, hate, love, critique below!

Thanks for the critisim, and I agree the intros pretty basic, but I believe there's not much substance to the song, so it just makes sense, but then again I could be wrong. Ill make a very sophisticated intro in my next track. And I ment to pan the synths out, but I never really thought about it while finishing the track, dang it :P and thanks for the notice of the bass, I believe it may sound quiet because I was always turning it down because
my speakers and headphones are real bass heavy, and I wanted smooth transitions between synths, but I should be able to fix this as I'm going to get some studio monitors soon.

Thanks ron for your support again

Ill work on a new track this weekend and try to have it up Monday with these new ideas

Also, this is off topic, but does anyone have any monitor suggestions?

Hahaha, thanks so much! And the workflow I stole from Porter Robinson, in an interview, he said he would start at the beginning of a track, and wouldn't move on until he was satisfied with what he was working on. So I took this, and forced myself to complete it with this workflow, and hey! It worked!

Also, I put a new version up with a bassline after about 43 sec into to satisfy the build (your welcome ColemanT ) , and a download link on media fire that you can find on the first post.

And about that wobble, I may have finished it in 8 hours, but that dang sound always seemed readjusting

And about the build, I believe I'm going to add a root noted bassline because it adds suspense and I know exactly how you feel a bassline coming on, and don't get it. :P

At around 50 when you blend in that bass build I was believeing a sweet bass line was coming! ALthough the build makes sense... I just love a good bass line.

Excellent.

Great idea, maybe ill do a remix of my own track :P or just release a club mix and incorporate your idea, and I agree that there needs to be more bass parts.

Thanks for the support!

Ok, I started a new thread for my finished track (and remix request if anyone is interested!). Heres the link:

And I'd pretty much call this thread closed! Thanks for the support for getting this track done!

I love the sound and the notes you use in the arpeggio. I just get a really good feeling listening to those.
