My New LP is out! 11 electronic tracks.

[Lockdown]

Comparing it to my last album I released, it takes a more traditional house style approach while I also experimented with some new stuff, getting away from the whole 118-128 bpm 4/4 on a few things and trying out some new VST's. Overall I'm pretty happy how it came out, I took a bit more time per song and dropped some others so I can have an album I'm 100% content with all the songs on there.

Personal favorites:
Tormented
One Hour to Dusk
Lost Without You

I listened to Tormented & One Hour to Dusk. Nice production, though it is similar sounding instruments, i wonder if you perhaps could work on different frequencies for some of the saw-like instruments. You tend to use a theme in the song a lot. Perhaps you could have that theme played on different instruments, too?

Hey, was wondering what you meant by a theme, like too much of the same sounds throughout going on? Since these songs are grouped together, it's supposed to be somewhat similar sounding, yet having each song have it's own personality going on to where the listener doesn't feel like they're listening to the same thing. It's something I've tried with this LP not straying too far from the similar "repetition-like, synth heavy" lockdown formula yet having something that's all too much the same in a way.

Oh yes, then that is the theme i felt. Great as it is intended.
The other thing is in respect to the individual instruments frequencies. Here you could try and spread instruments over more freq. The benefit is that they will 'occupy' a new 'area' in the song, and for that reason stand out on their own more.
I also tend to forget to try a preset in different octaves, moving the Base-note

but then when i do try, sometimes it works very well, with this kind of freq-seperation, but thats just me :)

What a nice collection of tracks, you got there.
I remember that Foggy Forest track very well. It's still one of my favs.

That Blip song, especially the start up, is really nice. I haven't heard something like that in a while.
And that melody, from 22 to 25 secs, that plays once awhile in this track, I must admit, it really
suits this song well.
