Thanks for comments guys. No, Systematic, kick wasn't mono or at least i didn't switch to mono by purpose . Yeah it's pretty messy mix, thanks for you ears guys. I've lower main lead volume, but maybe needed more.

Some "bassline" if now after 2:00 but don't know if that took me too melodic :/

Yeah, the lead is still too loud. And there's this thing that starts around 1:30 that sound really weird and off, but I don't know if that's a synth or just a reverb/delay of it.

I would also seek a deeper, rounder kick for this. The current one sounds a bit too nineties eurodance-y for my tastes.

I think I posted a clip of this earlier, but I'm not going to work on it any more, so here - a free track:

Yeah, it's just that it's so far from what I do nowadays that there's not much point in developing it further.

Originally posted by SystematicX1 Thanks Chris for the valuable insight! With that said I decided to experiment with a new kick and snare tone and checked on the bass. Damn if my cans aren't giving away to the dead. I haven't done the ultimate test in the truck yet but think this did a little more improvement. Appreciate the advice.

your welcome dude glad to be of service I lked the new drums, thought it was a definite improvement didnt get a chance to comment further as its been taken down. could have maybe even but a proper breaks beat behind it as suggested by someone else on here

what cans do you use? if they are not giving you an accurate picture of whats going on maybe get some new ones? AKGk701 so cheap nowadays...im having to rely on my cans as acoustics in new room awful atm!

quality IMO. if anything maybe missing some kind of "hook" but then that would change the feel. Perhaps the tune could have used a little development after the drop. I like it a lot. nice mix, textures, layers. sounds tight. skills

Originally posted by chris marsh Im really liking the arpeggio at the end of the clip. If im completely honest the rest of it is not working for me, especially the vocal. Drums and bass sounding tight though. I would scrap the rest of the music in this track, and use that end section and build a track around that and the drums/bass. That end bit is really awesome IMO. All IMO as always....

Thanks Chris

I'm pretty down on my musak at the mo, nothing seeming to grab people much.

I don't know if I will finish this one tbh as I cant see where it can go after the break to make it interesting

Cheers much for the feed

This may seem weird FB but the first 15 secs are wondefull, if you could keep it like that with a light deft touch and then add some vocals to float things away, nice. It becomes too heavy handed and jerky after 15 secs for me
