Apache Dawn

Love it! Good sounds and really nice, really clean drums. The vocal sample in the middle break feels a little out of place, but other than that everything gels really nicely.

Oh! This is truly a magnificent track. Love the drums sounding here. :drummer:

I listened to this track at least three times yesterday, I love the slightly industrial quality that it has, with the single tone bass pulse combined with the way you have chopped up the amen into super short pieces - they sound really mechanical. I love it! On a side note where does that ‘boink’ sample come from originally (first hit around 20 seconds in)? It’s in so many jungle tracks…

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

@scrittah, I feel the same and replaced it with an Apache fly over

@LoneWolfWilliams, The boink and one of the basslines is also from here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=XtbSH1kJbz4#t=25s

…and in turn the bassline from Terrorist is sampled from “I just want another chance” by Reece ^_^ As you might have guessed, I’m a bit of a sample geek :S

Great track man, feels like real smooth dawn, your work on Apache sounds very fluid and natural!

Great track mate, definitely sounding Dread School ! Proper Jungle DNB !!! The drum work is really good, and the overall sound/result is quality.

Did you make this 100% in renoise ?

Thanks, 100% yes, with the help of Dblues slices to pattern tool, and Cas rendernofx tool and a few VST (mostly monitoring).

those drums are freeeaking tight, niiice. love the the little breaks with percussion shuffle. maybe a bit more atmos over the top to add some kinda hook? i dunno, im a pop guy me :)

Thanks, I did try quite a few things but it always sounded better when it was stripped back to the way it is now.

wow man , you nailed it , this is superb!

Nice!

Apache break massacre! Crispy-ass percussion. Nice. Would love some synth/melodic elements…but then again that would detract from the raw break-purist aspect of the track. :yeah:
