Description
An attempt at zooming through space.
I cant afford a space shuttle ride , so I have to improvise.
I got some of the drum sounds from a program called Hammerhead . ( a freeware drum machine about 1Mbyte in size). I programmed it myself and created my own samples.
I used a lot of automation on the filters. Anyway hope you like it .

I enjoyed the space ride
Your pulsating background is fabulous, cosmic, mesmerizing. I'm less thrilled with some of the "noodling" over the top of this, but it still works. I might enjoy the tune without that part at all, or toned down, as I like ambient works for background music of my videos (see youtube.com/bobnisbet). Thanks for posting.

Thanks very much for your comment
I probably went a bit mad alright, now that you mention it.
Funny you mention the "noodling" , that was an afterthought and I was in two minds about adding it.
I may calm down a bit on my next techno piece.
Thanks for an honest critique.

I like!
I am not a techno guru, but as a fun tune I think it works just fine. The "noodling" is alright with me, but just possibly needs some balance in the deeper regions, for example a bit more "umpf" in that bass drum. This is after just one listen on my computer speakers, may sound alright in head phones?!

Stay well!

Good dance track
I was just thinking that having just a bass drum was working out great, and then a minute from the end you throw in some more obnoxious drum sounds. That snare drum is ok, but that obviously synthesized one isn't.

A great ride otherwise.

thanks for listening and for constructive critique
I have learned a lot of what not to do from the comments. Which is a great way of learning . This one piece in particular I have learned a lot from .
I love dance music , but as you and others have pointed out , I need to work out how to put drums down properly. I am laughing to myself at the candid way you put it and I am glad to learn my week areas , you could have gone to town on me but you did'nt and you left me with a nice comment . So many thanks VicDiesel . Slan anois ( goodbye in Irish ) .
