I don't know how many times I've listened to this now, but it's numerous and it's just a fantastic tune you've made here. Kudos again! :-)

[@burnside_music]

I love the track mate! The vocal samples are definitely the highlight, but I also really like what you've done with the superbooth samples

[@KaelAlden]

Beautiful voice, brother!

[@DoloJones]

This is a beaut, great entry, very listenable!

[@MonitusMusic]

This is my favourite entry for the contest for sure. Although it doesn't do well to my entry as I also did a Deluge live jam with similar "topic" ... I don't mind, as this track is fucking awesome

[@aardvarkmindshank]

Very cool. Super cool. So creative and beautifully executed. I have to order this machine!!!

[@KaelAlden]

Thanks, I love the deluge! I don't know if there's anything better for dawless composition.

[@boratezel]

Thanks Simon! Your channel looks cool too, I'm checking it out now.

[@SebticSmile]

This is very cool!! Love the vocals - the melody is great! Love seeing the break down too - interesting to see how others work. Good luck!

[@HelicopterRidesForCommunists]

Dude what you did there dropping the tempo is BAYED AYEASSS

[@sendalunar2974]

Super sick. I am definitely getting a Deluge

[@KaelAlden]

You'll love it! Just know there's a learning curve, but the payoff is quite worth it!

[@sendalunar2974]

@@KaelAlden i figured it will take literally years to master. But anything worth it takes time. I've heard it's not as bad as the octatrack lol

[@colindavis2113]

Fire track man. Super groovy 🤘

[@Jebrald0]

Beautiful Voice and awesome Track! Nice work and thank you for the breakdown!

[@NoxBoxdy]

Nice! Great walkthrough as well!

[@Fractalfrog]

great jam

[@luvinfunvan]

Killed it dude. Nice track. And great idea on using a shotgun mic to give some space away from the station.

[@LukePetruzzi]

I freaking love this song! Love the mix and love the vocal chops and decisions you made

[@KaelAlden]

Thanks Luke! Yeah I totally hear you with the gain staging. I struggle with that on the deluge sometimes too. Honestly if I get to clipping too much I usually let that be my indicator that I've gone too far with the arrangement overall. On a DAW I tend to add and add elements, not really knowing when to stop sometimes. I guess when I'm working on the deluge I let the limitations be a creative tool to just keep it simple.

[@MonitusMusic]

I have come through this many times and found that the solution was to always set track levels at around 10 out of 50. Then when you stack a lot of tracks it still sounds nice without clipping

I Want It So Bad

[@enensis]

dOPE!

[@Dekalboy]

For the second drum track at 11” , you have different colors pad on the track screen , but only a green line on the song page , how do you do that ? Normally , you should have different coloured squares on this line ….

[@KaelAlden]

I'm pretty sure the song page colors correspond to whatever is at the top of a kit track. In this case I just happened to have a solid row of green hi-hats on 16th notes at the top, so it appears as a solid green track in song view.

[@Dekalboy]

As I understand, you are grouping section by type of instrument and not by type of part of the song ?

[@KaelAlden]

In this case sort of. It's a fairly simple arrangement so I didn't make much use of the section groups, except for the pink breakdown section.

Is this Loopop?
