Here is an experiment in Prog Dance as I like to call it, which I did way back in the mid-noughties...yep it took me this long to get the mix and master right.

Hi Ben, a bit different for you, for me it seems a little lacking bottom end clarity/weight, for a dance track, gets better from the 1:30 ish mark.  Possibly a little more work needed on this, but what would I know
 
Thanks for sharing.

I'm really not sure what to say about this other than I listened to the whole thing. Seemed more like a rough mix than a final mix/master.

Ok, thanks for listening guys...interesting about bottom end and mix comments.  I've become a bit lazy with a couple of tracks, because I'm slowly winding my way through the archives.  Or it could be the way I've described it, because it's not really dance...more Emerson Lake and Palmer.  I've been laying off the bass a bit, trying to use the soft-clip function on the Concrete limiter.  Or it may be the Fairchild isn't fast enough to let the kick transient through.
 
Cheers Ben

Ok I went back and listened to track on my laptop speakers, which are excellent for judging the bottom end, and it's as I suspected...I should not have called this Prog Dance...it's just Prog lol...I was a bit tipsy when I posted last night, and I was being highly creative with my written language lol.
 
Peace Ben

Nice name change, I can't imagine any human dancing to this.  
So it took you 20 years to create this song? Truly amazing.

Challenging mix.   Kept my interest all the way through.  A bit over the top for me, though. Nice results.

Ben, I love your imagination but sometimes it makes my blood pressure rise.
It's hard to relate to something so old. Maybe you should not even mention that!
What's current in your life? Any more local videos of your surroundings?
 
Hope all is well.

Hey Jimmy, not much new stuff at the moment, I'm clearing the archive getting ready for the next big push, if you like.  There will more of the video art soon, as it's part of my Phd project lol, sorry I will my ego back in the box.  I need to buy some more equipment before I can make the next big push, in particular a Fishman triple play for my electric (which if you don't know is a midi controller for electric guitars).
 
I will get there, thank you for such lovely words though and for listening.

I should have said Jimmy, that this and anything that is coming from the archive is being remixed and mastered.  This is because every mix I've ever done up until a couple of months ago was crap.  And I'm archiving everything, as I say getting ready for the next lot of new stuff.
 
Sorry Jimmy.
