Free Bass
 

Here's the first draft of my new track 'Free Bass' for your perusal...would like to get a fresh pair of ears on this, so let me know what you think.
OnMyspace & Soundcloud players is a 3 min demo.

Thanks for the share, white lines takes me back. Still got it on 12'' amongst other. Nice breaks mix by the way.

Cheers mate, thanks for listening. Yeah I managed to snag both 12" vinyls that where released originally & sampled the bits I wanted. You can still hear some slight worn vinyl noise in there but I think this adds to the old school character of the track. I'm still not happy with the the DIY mastering job & there's a few other things I'm going to change but this is just the first draft.
I should have it pretty close in another week or so. I'll hit this thread up when its done.

I think that there is too much compression on the mix.

Nice...looking forward to it.

In my mind the over compression gives the track a vaccuum feel, with the background noise I feel it's a poigniant result.

Well I have to agree with the groovy ninja, it was way to compressed...thats what you get for being a lazy bugger & using presets. I had another go at mastering it but I will be the first to admit that it is definitely NOT one of my strong points & really should be left to people who actually know what they are doing ; )
Anyway I only really made it just for the fun of it & planned on making it a free dl, so no cash for pro mastering on this one.
The full version is a free dl on my Soundcloud right now.

Cheers,

Berni.

Raining all day today so I thought I would have a stab at making a video. This is my very first attempt at making a video & also the first time I have ever used iMovie so it's not too pro but may give you a laugh as long as you dont have any cocaine issues ; )
You can find it on MySpace here...

Berni got to say I love the track. The basslines just keep me in a zone. Epic track mate, like it a lot and mentioned before love the original.

Nice job Sir

*Entertaining vid* 3-4 Mins would be better =: )'

Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed. Yeah the video was one of those 'nothing to do on a rainey afternoon' deals. I just googled 'white lines' & got a bunch of images off the net & took a few 'interesting angle' shots of my old SL1200, stook it all in iMovie (which I have never used before) & added some FX.
Now I have a better understanding of the program the next vid will be better.

off topic but I am playing at a show tomorrow night called "free bass"

:D
