[bf2gamer007]

i found it boring =(

[siedgey]

@bf2gamer007 Hehe no probs man, it's not going to be to everyone's tastes! Thanks for watching anyways... :]

[siedgey]

Thanks everyone for watching - a properly produced version of this track is available on Beatport - just search for Simon Stokes, and it's called Kick Back. Thanks!

[bwstripessam]

thanks bro

[seble]

could you tell us please which equipment you are using for this track?

[siedgey]

Thanks for the comment man - I'm glad you like the track! All the equipment used and how it is set up is in the info man - the main synth is an Access Virus, with a Roland MC-909 for sequencing and drums. All of this is being held together by Ableton Live. Thanks for watching!

[seble]

amazing - I love it!

[ramidubbb]

the bassline alone is techno! sweet stuff bro keep it up!

[blaumy]

MUSIKOTE DEL BUENO,SI SEÑOR

[RhythmDroid]

Wow! This sounds just fantastic. I would love to hear it on a huge soundsystem!

[emacna12]

lol "It's just a techno jam really - not sure if it can be classed as a tune"

Kick Back is your best tune!!

[siedgey]

Haha thanks man - I had no idea when I made this video that the track would ever be signed...it's kinda weird looking back at it now! I agree though, Kick Back is the best track on that EP - they all seem so old to me now! Thanks again man. :)

[pickyourwindow]

To be honest i was didn't really enjoy the first minute or so and was about to change the video- im glad i didnt, that was top quality. Really reminded me of audion. Would love to see you live keep it up.

[markwhelan82]

you got talent alright m8!

ood work.

[kyunthir]

You really kick ass ! :)

I really like your style. ;) Been experimenting with some myself. Check my video response and tell me what you think.

[paulmorrice]

whats that controller on top of your speaker..? Am thinkin of buyin a virus c, would ya recommend one..?

[dusp2k]

@paulmorrice: it's a behringer DFX69 tweakalizer

[siedgey]

Hey man, thanks a lot for the comment. Don't think about it - buy the Virus. It's the best synth I have ever played, and I've played a lot! Can't recommend it enough man! ;)

[anggasaragih1114]

u sound like trentemoller, a little bit, haha nice job

[siedgey]

Wow - now that's a compliment! Haha...still got a long way to go I think, but thanks a lot! ;)

[MintallyImin]

I dig!!!! Id buy this,, to much of the minimal that seems to come out doesn't 'drive' enouigh if you know what i mean,, simple loops do it for me!

[siedgey]

Hi there man, sorry about the late reply! Thanks for the comment man, much appreciated. A deliciously produced version of this will be release on Monu Digital in the next month or two man, I'll keep you posted if you're interested! :)

[Tyblubearboy]

Hey mate.. Can't say I'm a huge fan of minimal techno but if anyone can turn me onto it then it is your tunes you've knocked out and put up here on youtube. I'm loving your hooky basslines and you cannot beat a hooky bassline no matter what the genre.

You seem to know your 909 well, mines in the loft but I'm thinking about getting it out again and hooking it up to my old retro analogue gear that I am slowly building up.

Keep em coming anyway... hopefully chat again in the future :)

[siedgey]

Hi man, thanks a lot for your kind words! I'm glad that you are liking the tunes despite not really being into the genre...I don't think anyone can resist a funky bassline! ;)

Hehe yeah you should get back into the 909 - I didn't use mine for about a year really and then when I turned it back on I fell in love with it all over again...Thanks for watching man! :)

[HardasNailz]

Fucking brilliant!

Greetings & congratulations from Sydney!

[lordolof]

Bad ass track/mix/jam or what ever =) Where's that nice shuffel comming from? is it the mc-909 or is it your drum programming.

[siedgey]

Hey man, thanks for the comment! Hehe who knows what to call this - I like jam though. ;) Not sure what you mean about the shuffle - the overall quantizing of the track is done on the 909, but the shuffled white noise hats are coming from the Virus! Hope that answers it either way. :)

[lordolof]

yeah that kind of was the answer i was looking for :) I think shuffle wasn't the right word, I meant the whole groove the swing of the track. anyway good job.

[tehta25pl]

That shit is awesome man. Good job w8ti'n for next vids. cheers

[siedgey]

Thanks a lot for the comment...I'm glad you like the track! There should be some new vids in the near future... :)

[apc170478]

Nice one son.. sounding good.. i hear ur a free man now aswell.. no more studying..well u can keep bangin out the tight tracks like this one then now cant u !!! good work.. keep it up.. andy

[intelagents]

Nice tune Mr. Stokes! Yet another techno bumper from ya with this track. Keep 'em coming. ;)

[siedgey]

Thanks man! Long time no speak - I'll catch up with you on MSN sometime soon. Hope things are going well for ya! :)

[Senj1n]

this is pure PORN.

holy shit - amazing stuph!

[siedgey]

Loving the last three comments drawing similarities between this techno and sex! Amazing. Thanks for watching man, glad you like it, albeit a little too furiously. ;)

[djpi0]

NOW THIS IS WHAT I CALL SEX !

[minsoocapo]

those shuffled hats are sexy

[mrkawpy]

that's amazing man.

[craplike123]

fucking right dude!

[freqstep]

4:45... Bring that beat back!! Been watching your 909 escapades lately and, in a less sober moment(!), made a purchase...expecting it to land in my greasy palms in the coming days!

Where's the 1st live gig btw? We travel for fun?!

[siedgey]

Wooooo! Congrats on the purchase man - you can't beat inebriated purchases. Give me a shout if you're needing a hand getting things going with it, I'd be glad to help. And wash your filthy hands before it arrives, won't you? ;) My gig is on the 7th June in the Glasgow - check my channel for more details, would be great if you could make it! :)

[smooth92]

Hi, how did you get your upload in stereo and whats the red box on your desk ? Excellent track by the way.

[siedgey]

Thanks a lot man! To upload in stereo, download Moyea Flash MX Video and convert your .avi to a .flv before uploading. It's really easy, just make sure the audio bitrate + the videa bitrate is less than 340 and it will be in stereo. :)

[siedgey]

Oh yeah, and the red box on my desk is an Access Virus Classic synthesiser.

[Babungus]

Good stuff man some nice sounds in there, and it's very jamtastic - a little bit messy and sticky but does the job. :)

Nice one on finishing uni!

[siedgey]

Babungly Wungly - thanks man! Much appreciated. I think the stickiness is all part of the techno vibe - who wants perfection? ;) I see you've got a new one...I'll head on over and check it out!

[pasito28]

Great tune! I just love those virus sounds!!!!

Congrats for the uni thing!!!!

Keep uploading brilliant tenminsongs!!!!

Hugs from Spain.

[siedgey]

Thanks a lot man! Hehe...you just gotta love the Virus. Definitely my favourite noise machine. Hugs right back at ya from Scotland.

[mauralexandris]

Excelent!!! 5 stars, at the min 2:07 start to get the vib of the song, and then the speakers get louder, party on, blue light!!! Briliant. Thanks for your msg, much apreciated, and send more details about your gig in june, i'll try to go and give my suport!! chears!!

[siedgey]

Hi there mate, thanks a lot for the comment! Hehe, yeah as Vivi says the first 3 mins or so are just a teaser really! Been working on the proper version today, I'll post it on Myspace soon. My gig is in Glasgow man - get yourself up here for a party if you can! Oxia is playing on the same night. :)

[vivipedraglio]

awesome my friend...specially since 3:30...is crazy!!! luv it!

[siedgey]

Hi Vivi - thanks a lot for the comment! Hope things are going good for you in Argentina - not seen any Youtube videos from you in ages! :)

[crazygoat85]

hey man, great stuff! good to hear u're finished with the dissertation so u can bring us tunes more often lol :P keep it up! p.s. i noticed the Matthew Hawtin artwork over your desk! nice!

[siedgey]

Hi Crazy! Haha thanks for the comment - so glad uni's out the way - you guys are number 1 now. :) ps Keen eye for the Matthew Hawtin artwork!

[reinohh]

Heyy! really nice job right there... nice up building feeling. Wish I have some real gear some day and not just software.

[siedgey]

Hey! Thanks a lot for watching man! I'm glad you like it...you should try and save up for a Virus man - you can get the older ones (like my one) really cheap now and they still have the same engine as the newer ones, just less polyphony! :)
