Sounds like u are into that oldskool london acid sound.... :)

Some of the elements sound like some of the ones used in the first ever Clusters. The Clusterfuk CD comes to mind.

I know you say you are brand new to this...

So its hard to really say *that* many critical things about these....

I guess here are some tips I could give (even tho I'm basically a begginer like you as well) :

*The tracks tend to be too minimal in too many places..... There are several places where the tune just dies down for no apparent reason... Also the first track seems to stay too minimal forever... Like over a minute in and its still not going anywhere....

Also the pacing on these seem all over the place.... Almost like you are trying to do too many things in the same track. At the same time, sometimes you are not doing enough.

I guess what I mean is that it's way too sporadic. They sounds more like a live PA than one track.

(I have the opposite problem in alot of my works where there AREN'T ENOUGH changes. hehe :) )

That's my feedback.

Keep playin around and having fun... That is the key....

i don't think i could have said it better myself. i can defo see more woody mcbride in here than london acid techno though. some of the crazy things in the tracks are actually really good. perhaps work a little more with effects - nice delays and reverbs will fatten up your style. keep it up raymond! nice c u on here m8 :lol:
