My first club-music song!

I got this idea a while back that I wanted to try this kind of dance/club-music song or whatever you call it that kids listen to these days.... I'm actually really not into this kind of music myself, but I'd say I'm satisfied with the results.
Excited to know what you guys think about it!


NOTE: Audio quality went through 2 additional compressions to reach youtube. So please download the mp3 before for a better experience

I like it. It has a nice, understated ambient quality that's not totally in your face. Good work man...

I like it Sargas. How about tell us what gear you're using and how you did the recording? Don

I've really kept it simple when it comes to gear.
I use Cubase for recording, and hence used a Halion drum preset that comes with Cubase for the drumbeat. And everything else is all from my beloved Korg M50

Only "trick" used is that I recorded the desired track on my M50 at first (in slower tempo if needed) and then quantized it in the M50 sequencer before recording it into Cubase. Just to make everything nice and tight

Apart from that is just plain simple mixing, like doubling some of the tracks and just putting EQ & Compressor on everything

Good job!
