I personally would definite it as tech house.

The mixing is really appropriate for the kind. Anyway, the structure leaves much to be desired. Till 1:05 is great, it hooks you...but then you have just build-ups of elements that don't really seem connected between each other.

Interesting background nuances.

thought it gets a bit cluttered in the middle third, few too many elements maybe

Soundi biggg Darek, good work.

Remove that 'jib jibber' it sounds naff.

At about 3 mins it gets a bit clashing.

It only gets the manipulated drum loop and that 8-bit synth hit there, but maybe the introduction is a bit too sudden.

I'm not really sure what to do with it. It started out as a knob twiddling experiment out of boredom, but I've grown attached to it now.

Its got a nice groove and I like the choice of sounds and percussion.

I know you may not want to hear this but I would add some cliche white noise transitions at certain intervals to kinda "guide" the track along a bit more. It doesn't have to be anything too big, just some transition white noise sounds. It would provide some tension and relief. Just my 2 cents.

Nice track!

on repeat its not so bad, maybe try mono-ing some of the extra elements, should appear to free up space

Here is a track I have been working on some this weekend... Does it work from a conceptual level? I realize the percussion and mixing need work. I havn't gone into mixing deep yet and am just getting close to finishing the arrangement:



EDIT:

I think I am going to redo the synth progression in the first half after listening to it again.

Real nice groove, love the kik/bass, made me move.

You just need to now give the track a bi more defined personality - there's always a danger with a sorta live tweaked drone in the beckground that it can come across as a bit of a random noodle. So maybe after a minute make the drone into a sorta 8 bar rhythmic drone with a definite personality and role.

The odd stab and / or vocal stab would also give it a proper personality.

IMO

the arp that comes in around 40 seconds is class, really dark or something, i would use it as the foundation, i dont really like where you take the track later on, i would make something really dark with that arp but thats probably not the direction you want to go
