[Tech House] Code Duello & PFGB - Cooler Than Thou

Code Duello & PFGB - Cooler Than Thou (WIP) by FunkySpacePiratesCDuello

Hey guys, I think there is a problem with this song but I don't know what it is. Do you think this song is dance floor ready? What additions do I need if any? I don't know what's wrong with it but I just cringe when I hear it for some reason.

Thanks guys. Later.

It seems like you have some clashing freqs between the toms and the house stab. It feels a little weird and screws up the flow in some way. Look at the Toms, I think you can find the problem there and maybe solve it by getting rid of those freqs fighting with the stab. Or maybe thin out the house stab just a tiny bit.

Im not sure though, but maybe this can point you in the right direction.

yeah, I have listen some more, and Im pretty sure its that "high" tom that occurs on the same time as the stab that is the problem. You can hear it best at 5.05

No offense but this sounds like more of a DJ tool than a proper song. There just isn't enough progression. Great sound design. Everything seems in place. It sounds excellent, mix-wise, but it just stays where it's at. I guess I like it for what it is.

Thanks for the input guys! Will definitely look into adjusting the mix.

And no offense taken EZ. I did want this to be more of a DJ tool more than anything.

Lacks groove and drive.
