I guess these are WIPs, though I'm not finishing them. Just thought I'd share on here

Very good stuff.  I always find it really hard to pick what songs to scrap when making a project.

I'll give some feedback for what it's worth. Like you said these arent on the album but whatever, you posted in sharing and feedback.

Was Slips Away complete for the most part? Arp/gated squares in the drop felt abrupt compared to the rest of the sounds (unless the intention was to create a feeling of unsettling). Enjoyed the space you created around 3:20. For me, this track had 2 separate ideas that didn't mash together well. In Bipolar you had this gritty electro line section that you blend with a progressive house pluck fest, both of which compliment each other. I wasnt feeling that same kind of cohesion with the trance and trap/future/whatever you want to call it, even when you blended the gated trance chords at 2:00.


I'm guessing eyes open was too similar to what was on Damage Control to be included in the album?
