This sound really promising man, at least for now - what you are missing is this massive lead with long tail plying some sweet and catchy melody around 2 min mark - can't wait for more on this lol

Cheers man,

Darek

Do you mean the new synth you can hear coming in at the very end of the track that has a lot of reverb along with the crash? Or something different?

You do a great job with a lot of synths in your songs and I have a difficult time adding elements that sound good together, so I appreciate the advice.

Completely new lead need to be introduce in around 1:30 mark (my opinion)

Check this track and time 2:23 - this is this kind of sound I was talking about.

I'd change the snare sound and detune the main synth a bit more - other than that - I like it, clean mix and a lovely melody.

Yeah I see what you mean.

How long have you been in music production? That is a awesome track.

Very pretty chord progression. I wish the percussion elaborated more, though.


Posted by Evolve140 on Oct-21-2012 04:17:

Yeah, like he said... the percussion is kind of weak. Listening to it on some floor mount Polk speakers and a Denon amp and it sounds good, but to really make this stand out the drums need to play a bigger role. Sounds nearly like ASOT or TATW.

I think you might need to tame the tail of the kick a bit as it's coming through the mix a little too much.

Also, that main stab is too forward in the mix, just a bit though. I'd look at reducing the amp release as you open the filters up and wetting it up with a bit of delay and/or reverb as well. I think it needs more ducking too.


Posted by Richard Butler on Oct-21-2012 21:01:

Good work so far - I agree on the filter opening - it looses a little energy there.

I have a lead melody and sound in my head for this.
I really love the kick choice.

Sorry I missed this earlier.

Add more little melodic bits on the background, one shots also work.

Listen to some Adam K & Soha songs if you need some inspiration.

I hadn't thought of detuning, will try. Making melodies is my favorite thing about producing.

Thanks, I will have to do more with the drums.

Thanks for the several pieces of advice!

I know what you mean. I hope I have tracks played on them someday.

I am having a hard time coming up with a lead on it!

I really like some of Adam K and Sohas' tracks. I know the backround stuff you are talking about and will add some.


Posted by TheFrown on Oct-23-2012 04:01:

Nice track man. Find a lead for sure. I have one in my head as well lol! Keep up the good work!

some great synth work in this track, very clean mixing too. Impressed for < 10yrs working the digital racket and coming out with something like this.

lovery track agree with the dudes above, gate your kick and level oyur lead and your set. GREAT track !


Posted by Viking Pillager on Oct-27-2012 11:25:

use of the ssl gate function on digital mixers is one of the most often overlooked rhythmic dynamic effect, good call bro.
