I would like some feedback on my newest track Symantec Corporation as you can see it has something to do with Symantec, the anti virus corporation, and I made this track, too describe my feelings over my Anti-virus program, which doesn`t do it`s job properly..
Interesting source of inspiration Downloading now.
It's a neat structure and sound, but I think you should work on your bass and synths a LOT more...add some more percs...as it is I think it's quite amateur sounding.

Be careful making such claims! I've personally never had a problem...and they always save my bacon!!
Hope you don't have a hit here, cuz they'll come after you for sure! LOL

in a way the bass sounds not good true, but the other hand it kinda created this weird vibe with those vocals..
the one thing i didn't expected was that heavy synth for the lead, i expected more weird sounds, i think that will suit the track due the vocals, some psy elements.
Aim for psy stuff i say, and ditch that push synth.

Can't say much for the kick you used. I've never really liked that pure thuddy click sound. Try supplementing it with something like a staccato bass note or something.
In general, it was very unmoving. You could have stood to at least do something more interesting with the lead other than just let it rise into the song and just fall back out without having done anything. I think you should listen to Massive and go for the psy trance stuff.
Massive 84: thx, ehm.. yeah the bass is maybe not so vety good, and the lead sound is totally without chord-progression, and btw: that u call it a "push synth" I take as a complement, but yeah, u are right it needs to be changed..
thoughtlessjex: thx for listening, yeah I will need to make a heavy lead change, as for the bass what is a "staccato" bass note?

You probably want some sort of subtracting synth for this, but just take a synth, go into it's volume envelope and make it's volume drop exponentially. Next go to the pitch envelope and make it pitch drop very fast. Twiddle around with this until you get a nice kick.
You may also want to look around your synth and sample library and see if you can find any good kick synths or samples.
Heyyy...that's a very nice track, guy. Other than the elements that need correction that have been mentioned by the members, it's very enjoyable as it is. Keep it up! I would love to remix this one day when I find time if you don't mind and give me your permission...I for some reason see a potential killer track out of this...the lead part just gets to me...it's misterious and has a suspense atmosphere to it.

By the way, did you use FL for it? Just wondering.
