Vizay - Reflection (former unnamed)!

New updated version!

hoy there folks, it's time for me to give you another track

this time it's a bit more straight on than my last track citrus source, less breakbeats and so on

I'm not 100% shure a bout the mixing yet so I might have some things to fix there but it should sound pretty okey.
The track has not gone through any masteringprocess so the volume will be very low for now but I intend to fix that pretty soon

Download the updated track by clicking here

feel free to give feedback, good things and bad things...just hit me

enjoy!


[edit about the update]
well I sat down today and came to the conclusion that it needed to be totally redone in the mixing so that's basicly what I've done.

changes also include:

*new intro
*minor changes to different sounds (eqing & compression mostly)
*changed a misstake with the bassline


the tune is also mastered now so the low volume should be fixed

[final edit]
Redid the mix and mastering again, no biggie really, only turned the highs down a little.

Finally came up with a name, or rather, a guy at the anjunabeats forum came up with the name for me

once again, enjoy!

The first part sounds good. No real problems here imo.

At the break I think you should have a little less delay on the guitar. The melody is really good tho.

The guitar is maybe a little too low in the main part.

I think this one is better than Citrus Source. A little more "trancy" Keep it up!

Sounds okay, although it is a tad boring to my tastes. The melody repeats and there aren't a whole lot of instruments added or taken away during the course of the track. Not a bad production by any means though!


Posted by DeZmA on Aug-03-2004 19:51:

bass sounds ok, subbass too
guitar is cool, fresh and summer-ish, other synths sound pro too.
Same comment as previous tho, the melody gets a bit boring towards the end.
nice work !

hey vizay

i liked your other track last time.

about this, mastering is poor here.

intro wasn't keen about it, needs more, the second synth that comes in the intro, not a fan of that.

guitar is really nice with the acids.

pads are ok, but they sound a bit thin.

this track really needs drive, and if you tighten up the kick bass and clap, it will be alot better i think.


Posted by Sunquest on Aug-04-2004 14:15:

hey
#1 suggestion is mastering, u cant really hear the clap, the percs are too trebly, the kick is too weak and is acting as a bass kind of, as for structure and everythign esle u know what ur doing, u just gotta master the mastering but dont give up, practice makes perfect

peace out


Posted by Vizay on Aug-04-2004 15:44:

well as a matter of a fact I can master my mastering, I just havent done it yet (as I wrote in my first post)

I'm a bit fucked up in my ears today so if I start the mastering right now it will prolly sound like shite so I'm saving it for tomorrow

have some ideas about some things I wanna change too so it doesn't get as repetitive as it is now

stay tuned for another update on the track soon


Posted by Vizay on Aug-05-2004 12:19:

I've updated the track now, read more in the first post

hehe I was actually sober
but usually when I work with my tracks I do the mixing while creating the track so it takes it's place at the same time as the creating of different instruments and such...

when I redid the mixing now I took the mainpart of the track and reworked it from there

Hej..... Skitbra l�t...Opps sorry in english

I really like this track... Its dreamy, mellow but has that elegant touch of roughness at the same time.... I have to agree with NooN, a little less delay on the guitar wouldn't hurt...

Over all this is a good track, keep it up...

Friendly greetings from the ghost of Mozart...


Posted by BuRoLovesTrance on Aug-05-2004 20:21:

hmm, not a bad one...


Posted by NiX on Aug-06-2004 01:39:

Pretty good production. I'd probably spin this. I'm not sure about the guitar patch though.


Posted by Shad0wmaster on Aug-06-2004 14:32:

Loving the guitars in this. Well done Vizay


Posted by Vizay on Aug-06-2004 15:12:

glad to see that people like the track

imo it's better than my last one citrus source, more danceable

I'm playing at a big party tomorrow in sweden so I'm gonna test it there too, to see how it works on a dancefloor and all that


Posted by Vizay on Aug-25-2004 20:18:

worked pretty good on the dancefloor but as predicted, defenetly not a peakpoint song

well anyway, I've redone the mastering and small parts of the mixing so it should be more gentle to your ears now

ohh almost forgot, it has a name now


[edit]

I'm also thinking about doing a chillout remix of this one, waddaya think about that, you folks wanna hear one?

HELL YEAH!!!!


Posted by Thunder5 on Sep-01-2004 23:45:

Oh yeah.. this is pretty wicked track..

Can't really point out anything specific atm... Too tired..


Posted by M1cro5lave on Sep-02-2004 00:21:

Sounds very clean in my ears.
The guitars sounds quite good, but I'm not very fond of them and I think they give the track a whole new dimension. I can't say if it would be better or worse without them, I think it's a personal taste...

Everything else sounds very good, kicks, bassline, effects and all. I love the intro. I love the melody. Overall a great track, but I think the guitars could be much better.

Keep up the good work.


Posted by azndragon0613 on Sep-02-2004 01:57:

The bass could use something to fill inbetween the highs and the lows. THe clap is very old school . That synth going from F to Eb is a bit weak but i guess that is understandable since it's just an ornament. Man the guitar...mesmerizing. I love it. Beautiful melody. I would throw in an ohihat between every kick to keep tempo but that's just personal opinion. Good track man. Thanks for sharing.


Posted by pho mo on Sep-02-2004 04:12:

Bro, this tune is really awesome! I don't think the sound quality is up there though, which is a shame, the tune is beautiful.

The the saw-based synth that starts fading in around 2:00 is just awesome, exactly the kind of vibe I love, and when the progression kicks in on the bass at 2:17 with that trancey synth still going - that's just excellent! And then ... the guitar, ...!

From the tune itself, if the mix was better this would be my new favourite TA tune #1 for sure. Plz let me know if you make any more changes to this one!


Posted by Vizay on Sep-02-2004 11:06:

thanks for all the nice replies I've gotten, really apreciate it

well it seems like I have a bit to learn still both when it comes to mixing and mastering.

the mix has pretty good low and high end but the mid's are lacking, it could feel so much warmer than it does right now imo.

I'm working on a remake of this track but I might go back and work some on the mix and mastering too so stay tuned


cheers!
