Hello all, i'm a producer from edinburgh. I'm trying to make music that's as influenced by deep house and modern classical as UKG. I've had good words from Gutterbreakz, ben ufo and peverelist, so i'd be honoured if you could check out my stuff and give me comments/criticism.

The new one is "Naked and Ashamed."

Thank you,

Jacob.

Good stuff there, I really like it, keep at it mate.

really like the beat and the vocals but maybe spice up the bass a bit. big up

thanks for the feedback!

Jacob

New tunes time! This one fresh from being played by ben ufo on ruffage sessions: "Account"

Go to http://www.myspace.com/sodiumnightlife to hear it, let me know what you think.

Naked has some potential. I think you could back off on the echo on the vox, I like to know what the girl is trying to say LOL. The B-line is a bit boring too imo. Like someone else said... spice it up a bit.

yeah i've gone off naked a bit. Different from what I normally do and not as good.

savage tunes, i like your style

definitely has room for improvement in the drums and bass

Damn, nice tunes!

thanks a lot for all your feedback!

Jacob these tunes are absolutely wicked man, such sick vibes, really really feeling them, keep doing what you're doing! Malaise in particular is very lush, Account also is a sick one

relating to the above, i actually really enjoy the slightly rough, un-processed aesthetic on the drums... reminds me of grime, early house, juke etc, which brings a really different feeling compared to really finely tuned stuff

big up man

thanks elgato! I've always noticed on dissensus that you've got pretty similar tastes to me so that's wicked that you like em. And the influences you spotted were dead on.

great tunes!like this dubstep

Thanks for all the feedback!

Been working hard recently, really feel I've got a fair bit better at making these bits. So, two new things on the myspace player: Out You Go and Hare Cut.

If you check them out and have any responses, feel free to post away - good or bad.

Thanks,

Jacob

Out you go is very nice, but i like Hare cut more. Great tunes!

320 possible?

I think i need to tweak the mix slightly on hare cut, but i'll send a 320 of it when i'm finished. If i forget remind me..... thanks for the feedback.

Hello everyone, I have three new tunes on my myspace now. I've had kind words from Untold and Martyn about these ones, plus my friend Chris likes them too which is always a good sign. Hit them up, any thoughts much appreciated.

Digging Hare Cut - the B-line makes it for sure. Particularly love the clave under the handclap in the 'snare'. Not sure about the progression at 2:00, but it resolves itself nicely between 3:00-3:30. Would love to hear this on a proper system.

I love the deep in the basement vibe of the breaks-n-bass intro of Jara, but by about 2:00 I'm wondering where it should go. I feel like something needs to interrupt the rhythm to keep the vibe fresh.

Must say though - Green Fields is just a lovely composition. I've been reading the paper listening to it and it just unfolds beautifully. The rolling development in the arrangement make it a lovely listener. Layering on some effects in the mixdown could amplify the hypnotic effect nicely.

Cheers for the good tunes!

Thank you very much for the kind response. Made me a happy man.
