I really dig the sizzling pad stab thing
Tried my hand at some SevenLions style pad ducking. Took 3 compressors all sidechained with low action and a huge release. Can't remember if 7L said or not but I think he said he uses a gate as well to get those long tails.

Would you say this is worth finishing?
Definitely imo no time to comment properly atm but sounds good to me. But what i think is not really important
finishing the tracks off is the hardest part (for me anyway)sounds like you have nt gittoo far to go

would like it more if you had gone with a darker vibe on the chords and stuff! would make a good dark track for techno.

Trap music / Social media Troll song
Hey guys, trying to pull off a trapmusic/social media troll on this girl from Instagram. This isn't my usual genre and apparently it's more experimental than trappy but still love to know what you guys think. With some feedback I might change it to be more full on trap but I think it sounds pretty fresh as is. LMK! <3

That experimental track is cool!
I'm glad you think so but the reason I chose trap was because it would reach a greater audience her age, but I feel like I may have gone a little over board on the experimental ascpects, to do a proper troll i wanted top notch production so you can kind of experience the way I snipped together and edited all the vocal and sample parts.
I just want a nice, legit troll with great production value.

I was playing with the arpeggiator. It's the same 4 chords pattern in 3 different instances, and original without arpeggiator. Mix is a bit crowded in places :/

I'm not really into trap music so i would not know if it's too much experimental, sorry

I don't listen or lke track but as a 10 year vet production I Can handle myself pretty well through genres.
mostly I just want to know if the production quality stands out,a nd which holes in the mix I need to fix.

IMO there are some good ideas in there, but it doesnt really feel like a cohesive track in some ways. around 3 mins it starts to sound a bit confused/loose to me, almost like 2 tracks mixing into one.
i lke the piano chords at the beginning but they do soun very mechanical, as opposed to natural, like they are being played, perhaps what you were going for
mix wise i feel like it could benefit from being cleaned up quite a bit, especially the resonant "stabby" synth the drums are a bit lacking in high end, and the mix could be wider in parts too. Stlye wise its not really my cup of tea. Would defo be a good idea to A/B similar tracks if you are not already doing that..
sorry that's not very positive. obviously its only my opinion but i think its worth giving your honest opinion if you are going to do this...
