Thanka for your comments on my work. I'm going to second mr Mystery on this, it is a badass concept! If mixed properly this would be similar to that Eelke Kleijn style which I think would be an amazing achievement

Originally posted by Storyteller Slowly getting happier with where this is going. Bass is too loud I think in the end... Any ideas on how to take it further?

This is really my cup of tea, pretty smooth and nostalgic with sweet sound selection and well balance. I wouldn�t change much, just focus on finishing it then you can worry about everything else.

Same clip has been updated quite a bit now. Far from finished still but moving forward nonetheless... Hopefully the mix doesn't sound that headphone-ish & bass-heavy anymore. Thanks for your pointers

you transported to this magical place called plastic city... then trumpet and the guitar kicked in... the spell broke, and it became something else... ...

personally i would strip out a couple of the vox samples, and probably just use a lick from the trumpet, and guitar if that in order to stick with the plastic city/timewriter vibe that i was feeling in the begining. i felt that the trumpet and guitar turned the vibe into flaccid poser house. kinda like the naked music type vibe you'd hear at a daytime pool party in the hollywood hills where no is dancing cause everyone is snorting coke and sipping wine and taking selfies for the gram so other people will think they are cool.

but yeah, i was diggin the track. regardless of what i think, you need to finish this one.

been trying to chisel on the mix a bit more, took out a pad to make some room, but the mix still sounds cheap a/bing to good tracks; the bass is distorting and I cant get rid of it unless I recreate the sub, shiet.

I'm really liking what you're doing here, particularly with the synths, really nice. I think it might be the drum sounds that need the work to bring the mix up to where you're aiming at. They just sound a bit flat at this point underneath the rest of it imo... But yeah this is really promising.

oh nice observation, yea I think thats part of it too.

🦉 A tip from deadmau5. Don't overextend your kicks. They'll cause havoc, specially in the club. Short & punchy kicks is where it's at. Or are you tryna make hip-hop?

you're hip-hop.

anyhoo, im done with that track its reached the point of no return; its finished. need to make more music, been struggling with this one for too long.

And is moving right direction, so far so good.

producing when you have little musical and mixing skills is a treacherous game.

anyhow I was able to craft something presentable, still in the process of editing everything, I think there is a track in here somewhere, im lacking some interesting things/mid range. the only thing I like about this is how much air my little speakers are pushing out.

MSZ you still using Reason?

If by using reason you mean opening said program and rolling my forehead across my keyboard to see the LED trails, yes.

Giving it to you straight. Instrument separation is good on my headphones. Bass synth should be softened. Same for synth stuff. It seems too loud with the rythms going on.

Synths are slowly progressing lovely. Maybe also vary a bit more in rythms. Now time for the break.

Cool sounds. Tension. Overdrive-ish thing going on. Looking forward to what is to come!

many thanks for the fb, appreciate it.

Agree with this ->

Just to keep this thread active I will post my latest WIP concept - it is in a more developed stage but still need some tweaking and massaging. Lets see what you guys think?

hmm I think thats one of my favourites from you, sounding really nice. maybe st can chime in on your mix but sounds good to me. sounds nice and full, bass has nice air too, perhaps a little more midrange boost on the bass a little bit? not sure.

btw where did your son go, does he still make music?

edit* taken down cuz I suck.

Yeah, couple of day ago I was able to quickly run your WIP and had to take off without leaving any comments but yes, there was something in
that sound which cause (in my opinion) a fatigue, something like to bright sound but I will need to listen it couple more time before give you more constructive opinion.

Cheers,

Darek

Appreciate Mac. Mike is currently finishing his MS program but, as he said himself, is ready to make some noise lol. He recently purchase some hardware and fancy new audio interface so I myself are waiting for him to shine again lol

Cheers,

Darek

ooooh, splendid.

Is it worth further development?
