ParticipantHi all,
Been working on a jump-up project – got as far as the first half so far. It’s a blatant ‘The Sauce’ rip-off, hence the name.
Would appreciate some input on what it needs…

KeymasterThis is heavy Mark! Would go down so well in the rave. Really nicely executed and produced too.
Perhaps needing a little something to add a unique identity.
Those stabs tucked away in there, heard from the breakdown are awesome, big Bad Company flavours. Is that a sample?
Definitely keep this in your demos folder and keep writing, keep the vibe and productivity up 😀 -

ParticipantThanks for the kind words of encouragement Genies!
Any suggestions on what could be added? I’m starting to go ‘blind’ to the tune TBH.
Yeah I added the Pulse reference after my original post and switched out the files :-). It’s a synth preset (DC Breaks’ Halo), that has been OTTd, Trashed, excited and filtered to thin and flatten it out.
I’ll deffo drop this at house parties, etc… but unsure I can I ever do anything further with it as, as originally stated, it started out with me trying to recreate a ‘The Sauce’ tune (particularly the break and intro) – there is just way too much similarity. However, it was lots of fun to make (and I learnt a lot in the process) – i just wish I could make those DLR basses oozing minimal funk… *sigh*
Many thanks,
Mark

Leave a while, don’t even listen to it for a month or two.. or more!
Keep writing and generating new tunes all the time.
Clarity / samples / ideas for this tune will pop into your head when you try not to force it! -

ParticipantThanks Genies!
Yeah – will deffo step away from this one for a bit (that’s what I did previously, I started it in July :-)). Taking a break from the tune last time allowed me to approach with fresh eyes so sound advice!
Many thanks,
Mark

ParticipantTried to edit the post but it didn’t stick, so replying to myself instead 🙂
I wanted to add that, when I originally left the track (rather than ‘pushing through’), I wasn’t sure if I was doing the right thing ie – it felt like giving up.
Your confirmation that feeling the need to step away from a project should not be misconstrued as creative failure, is both encouraging and great to hear!
Many thanks,
Mark

Definitely this 100%
You’d be amazed how many tunes that get released today for example, began 2/3/5 years ago and the artist had to wait for the idea to settle…
If you stew on something too long you’ll go crazy!
