But... needs side-chaining. I don't know how to exactly describe it, but... the drums aren't as "prominent" as the synths while the synths are sorta louder than the drums. And sidechaining allows these two tracks to stand out equally, or something like that. Again, I don't know how to describe it exactly.
One thing, tho, the drum loop sounds really good. Nice to know that you're getting the hang of the Machiniste thing. Kudos!
