And let's not forget the golden rule. If it sounds good you're doing it right

first blue planet corporation - midian then electric universe - rain but worse they upload a track on youtube that is not by them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfnEJtyiViY

Maniac!

i have one channel per note of the bassline (sometimes plus extra-channels for notes overlapping with the kick) all routed to one bass bus, which is then routed to the knb bus. i often do a boost at the second harmonic and a cut at the fifth on the bassline. if the notes change these eq bands are off and the sound isn't as clean. thanks for mentioning keytracking. i haven't really thought about that before for the bassline.

damn, that was nice!! he is really good at truly remixing an artists style I must say. He did very well with Hallucinogen too, even if that wasnt really a remix, it kinda was. edit: except i didnt think the 303 fit at all. but other than that it is really good.

not only phase issues. but it'd be a lot more work and much more prone to error. even when doing a typical "jumpy" fullon bassline that doesn't change with the chords i use 3-4 channels with different eq for each note. that'd be pretty much impossible with automation.

That's genius.. Automating the eq to follow the key changes. I guess the only other way would be have a different channel for each key change and eq separately. Wishful sinful is a great example to me, regarding having bassline jump around instead of full key changes. But maybe that one is slightly too jumpy.

i was coming from freetekno back than. if you're used to having just a fat kick playing at 180bpm with a few weird sounds on top you have a different perspective. my cheese threshold was way lower back then. i was at the time looking for sound like talamasca - leo, but music like astrix - day dream was fresh and new and played everywhere. for most tracks i liked the first half but couldn't stand the climax at the end nowadays i have no problem with electric universe - peak (though it's still not among my favourites), but i would have hated it then i do agree on that point about progressive. just listened to the sensations album the other day and it's really a gem. most new progressive doesn't come close.

that track is in the playlist currently running in my car i started out a little later, so i only dissed the sort of fullon that had basslines changing according to the chord progression, thinking it was way too cheesy for psy. little did i know what we were going to see from electro sun and the like a few years later
