OUT John O'Callaghan - Impulse Barrier [Subculture]

[skyriderz]

Banger from JOC

 

[Freezer]

Solid hybrid of nasty tech groove and PVD type melody. I would change the final note in the melody bar. Sounds quite off like this. But anywayz a solid track for sure

 

[Redrot]

Super lazy composition IMO, he could have tried to tie the techy groove and the melodic parts together with a bit more finesse. Honestly, this is a super walmart version of Space & Time (if you want an example of how to tie tech with more melodic breakdowns together well), but I'm still a sucker for that bassline.

This is sooooo 2010s wacky-crew of producers(kearney&co).

Its not very tasteful to say the least. But they probbaly keep thinking they are the real deal

More like a cheap $2 shop not walmart

The Techy part and the "epic" cheesy uplifting part both sound so disjointed from each other.

The Uplifting part could have been axed completely, instead putting more effort into the Techy elements or adding a more interesting progression, and the track would've been better for it.

I see your points, but actually I kinda like the "disjunction" between the two styles the uplifting part is kinda meh though... the techy part is very nice

JOC delivers some of the phattest basslines you can imagine, but sadly that's the only good part about this track. As much as I love PVD driven pluck melodies, it just does not fit here and the track would have been better off as a tech banger

 

[aSeb]

Nothing to enjoy in this one. A very "messy" track and just feels off in so many ways.

 

[Enlusion]

More of just the same
