The kick and the clap are all wrong, aside from that it sounds okay.

i like the melody, but yea the kick and clap don't fit, not sure what you need, btw what you used for your melodies?

the clap sounds a bit off...i'd probably lower pitch on it...extend the decay a bit and pull the volume down to bring it "into" the mix a bit more...

but I liked the kick all in all...tight...solid... a real floor stomper if you ask me...maybe bring the volume up on it a bit to get that "up-side the head" feeling that it suggests...

i mix songs weird...i like them thick and soupy not much "space" between "voices" etc so i can't offer much on the over all but the sounds seemed a bit "spread out" for my liking...huck a pad or some atmospherics in there and it'd be golden...

the kick could work with some changes... the clap doesn't work at all... but the rest is fine

first the things that the others said...the kick and the clap are way to weak, get a mor esplashy clap and a harder kick...

you might wanna work more on the rest of the percussions too, one highhat will simply not do (now I know this is a sample, just mentioned this as a "just in case" thing)


I think you've come a bit closer to hardtrance, you just need that harder sound omainly on the percussion & beat section

so judging by what you guys are saying, the precussion needs the work?!! kewl. thanx.

how about the synths.... is the "main" synth strong enough? is it "the good sound" if you can put it that way?

I used the FL4 piano roll to make the melody, what else would I use?
It's a 3osc synths with my own touches to it and a phaser added to the normal set of effects.

I'm interested in listening but the link isn't working.
