    i have to ditch the melody, as i have put this on cm/fm as well and they dont like it either. (some of you liked it)
    i am going to work on something else throughout the week and post a finished copy when i am done. thanks again for all the kind words... very motivating to get nice feedback
    I learned something about listening to others...mostly this applies to artwork, but it could clearly apply to what you are going through.

    Julian Schnabel (painter) once said, "Never listen to anyone when it comes to being responsible for your own work" Now it's nice to get feedback from people. But taking the feedback from 20 people and then changing your attitudes on the song doesn't say much for your opinion of your work. Frankly I liked it and wish you had just kept it the way it was.

    Unfortunately sometimes you do listen to others about your work, and then you change the song...then down the road you wish you had kept it the way it originally was...then you end up kicking yourself in the ass. Don't do that. If you feel it might be lacking. Finish up the song anyway...then do your own remix of the track. Look at PVD, that guy does around three remixes for every song he has ever put out.

    Just remember this...those 20 people might not have liked it...but 20,000 more might just have really loved it that way.

          Pretty damn fun early type track
          Only non positive comments
          somehow build up to that nice guitar sound
          without the momentum dropping out
          and add a little more kick and snare
          for mixing out with, cause that middle eastern sound
          with the guitar would sound great flowing into another track.
          Otherwise, lovin the sounds, dirty grity and very mixable.\
          Carry on

          So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

          1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
          2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
          3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
          4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

          Am I close here?

            Checking :-)

            Like what I hear..starts nice and calm..brilliant atmosphere.
            kick suits to the track..very nice. like the low and deep bass in addition to the rather minimal percussion.

            3.20 mins now, nice sounds coming it. reminds me of something, but cant remember what.

            great production, personally i think it's more of a "lounge" track
            Coming soon:
            Matt Rowan - Waiting To Happen (Matthew Adams Remix)
            [Only Records]
            4mal feat. Ani - First Sense (Matthew Adams Sensual Mix) [Beatfreak Spain]
            Espen & Elusive - Stone (Matthew Adams Remix) [Caps Lock Rec / Deep Blue Rec]
            4mal & Matthew Adams feat. Corey Andrews - Computer Parts [tba]

              yes i do need to bring that sound in a bit better. i will work on that, and teh outro sounds like a good idea too, thanks

              oh and matt, it was my goal to make a "lounge type" track. i was listening to alot of warmup mixes when i made this... namely chloe's warm up for diggers mix

                Chloe's sound
                has a great feel
                like Q6's old mixes
                just sets the stage perfectly
