Hey guys, it's me, that annoying dude who posts his music all the time. I finished up a new song today, and was wondering what you guys think of it. Here it is, Still Drifting.

I was going for a sort of Burial/ Phaelah/ Skream hybrid feel on this one, I like how it turned out, but wanted to see what you guys think. Any input you have would be really appreciated, since I'm always trying to grow as an artist.

Also, if any of you guys make electronic music, or any kind of music, really, I'd love to hear it, and I'm sure the rest of the Flood would too!

Hey guys, it's me, the cool dude who posts his music and doesn't afraid of anything.
You can leave now. You're trying way too hard to be cool/funny/whatever.

Except he is a cool dude posting his music here, and he has the balls to be open to criticism about it.

Listening to it now OP. Better not make me regret stopping my JJ for this :)

I added a comment on YouTube about adding a bass and switching up the drum beat and style... however the piano and synth worked and I liked the whole structure of the song, I thought you could possibly take advantage of a more energetic drum roll kind of like near the end of the song, and the very end as it was ending really tied everything well. It was a good track... but I would think of other things to make it more original and stand out, and I wouldn't quiet say this is new age enough to where it would do well just on it's own without maybe a soundscape and/or more instruments... goood go though. (:

I saw, and thanks for the comment! And yeah, it does feel a bit sparse, maybe too much so. It could do with more of a soundscape to it, some more tactful reverb and other sounds, and a more energetic drum would be interesting, good idea.

Thanks, mate!

Trying to plug my own music but soundcloud won't load :/

OP, this is my favorite of yours yet. I liked the sparse, airy feel to it. It gave the song an airy feel, which i thought worked great with the direction you went with it. The name fit it perfectly. The solid piano/synth worked very weel the minimalistic amounts of other sounds. I loved it. Perfect music for playing in the background, or thinking, or relaxing. Very well done.

Pretty good.

I just got a big smile across my face reading that. Seriously, thank you so much for the complements, dude, I appreciate it. I love when people enjoy my stuff, partly because I'm an arrogant idiot, but also because it's nice knowing something I did or made made someone else happy. So, thank you! :D

Any time man. Keep posting your stuff as you produce them. I love hearing others' works (especially originals) and talking about music with people.

Here's my stuff. Same three covers as last time, but i've got three originals in the works. Hopefully i'll be posting them soon!

It's a really really nice melody but it's a little to repetitive for my tastes.

You just need to spice it up a little, maybe see if you can get someone to play bass line for it.

This is possible, I think I know a guy who plays bass, actually, and I know another who has a good microphone... Maybe! And thanks, by the way!

Also, EAKLE, I remember your Soundcloud! Lemme know when you upload something, I'll check it out for sure!

You're one of like four of my followers :)

Will do man! I've got one in the writing process that i was gonna record a sample of and post today, but then i ended up writing a different song last night. Tracked it entirely today, but changed the lyrics, and now i need to finalize that before i post it :P

  • 12.02.2012 8:29 PM PDT

Liked it. As previously stated; spice it up.

I listened to some of your other stuff and I've got to say it's pretty spectacular stuff. What software do you use?

I tried to mix together 2 songs using windows moviemaker and camtasia a couple years ago. Probably one of the most miserable experiences I've had in my life.

I had a guy ask for a download though :D

Really? Hah, that's killer, and thanks a ton for your compliment! I use FL Studio.

Talking about Sweden is an ultrabannable offense.

Too bad being completely and utterly wrong isn't a bannable offense.

Chillstep being made by a friend of mine on the Flood?

I don't think I could not like it.


Should ask Salfa what he's doing.


As of now it feels a bit too minimalistic, if that makes sense. I agree with what everyone else ITT has said.

The progression is great though, as are the synths and everything else. I just think it needs a little bit more.

Thanks for the input, I've been thinking about adding a few more elements, since I agree with everyone so far, as well. Thanks for listening, too! :D
