This file has expired and is no longer available here. The owner of the topic can re-upload the file, or post a link to an off-site file. <a name="planetz-tag"></a>Genre: Techno <a name="planetz-tag"></a>Uses: Pulsar Effects,Pulsar Mixers,Pulsar Synths copyright © 2001 SputnikK _____________________________________ A cool atmospheric techno track that would work especially well in a club environment imo. This is what I used: Pulsar for mixing and compression, the melody that comes in at 02.44 is the Hummel Bluesynth, the bassline is the pulsar Saturn. ReBirth was used for the beats, with additional sounds from my XL-1, which also provides the strings and that distorted screeching sound. The filtering in the break-down is the standard pulsar 4-pole. I sampled the vocal sample from a cd, and processed it a bit in Soundforge.
I hope you enjoy it, let me know what you think!

Ummm... sorry to say this isn't a review. I don't think the link is working. Please tell us when it's fixed too! :>

Uhhmmm...yes it is. Just right click the file icon and save. It works with me. Anyway, I've reworked the track a bit for the better and I'll see if I can upload the new version tomorrow.

It only works for people with IE, as there is a space in the filename. Suggestion, use underscores "_" instead of spaces, then everyone can snag it.

No label yet I'm afraid, but who knows...

i have to tell you....I am above all a drum and bass head...and get pretty borred with techno trax...BUT...i sort of got into this little bit from you...pretty tastefull collection of sounds...liked the pad that you open with (what did you use there exactly?)....
though i would have liked the highs to be a bit more present in the final mix (I know clubs kick those up...but anyway)...I liked it better when i turned the highs up (just a bit)...it feels a bit more spatious then...
can you turn this into a dnb track?!?!

The pad sounds are from an EMU XL-1.
The highs are allright in the original mix, it's just that I have a shitty mp3 encoder so it goes all swishy and ugly in the high frequencies.
I would like to try making a drum'n bass track sometime, maybe when I finish the one I'm working on now...
Thanks for the comments

Nice track, a pity it's so short, the demo.
I would still call it trance,

. Not even hard trance(I've been following the discussion on the thread in the General forum,

).
Still..., it needs some "development". Maybe if I heard the whole track I would be able to give it a fair judgement([edit] oops, I didn't download the complete file. So it's great,

).
And it doesn't sound too muffled too my ears.
Yoonchi.
Ps. there are some good shareware mp3 encoders and freeware ones. Try download.com for some of these.
