Johnson & Corbett vs Alan Marcero - Ibiza Sun *UPDATED*
Hey guys back with a new track this time we collabed with Alan Marcero who has recently signed with Trance Tribe Recordings he remix the way for us wich really sparked our intrest in this producer anyways with out further adue here u go the link to the preview track.
*EDIT*
Volume Levels Now adjusted and cleared up some of the muddiness from the percs so here you go an updated version of the Demo.
yea its ok- pretty good even, but doesn't stand out from the crowd of recent "amateur" productions I've heard lately.
I like the bassline(a bit too loud in the mix tho), and that kick is pretty smooth. The instrumentation/melody in my opinion is thuroughly overdone tho, these synth sounds seem too overused, and to me that indicates unoriginality. Don't get me wrong, they seem to go with the whole feeling/atmosphere of the song, but yea, its been done before too many times...

I think this track is pretty good so far.
The 2nd bass seems a bit too loud in the mix, and overpowers the other synths. Got some nice efx going on throughout. kick is nice and powerful. Around 50-52seconds for the transition there is some highnotes of sumtn that makes it sounds strange, idk if its bass, or a perc, but i would get rid of it. Other than that after adjusting some levels, it should be really good.
the kick is huge! wow!
the lead seems to engulf the higher end percussion, do you have the lead & percussion side chain'd?
those pads are gorgeously warm, and the strings fit really well.
not really feeling that choir pad in the build, maybe bring back some of those pads instead.
cool track, not much to comment on because it is really well done.

- i thought the first bass was a bit loud, but the second, deeper one is just fine
- i dont like those really fast hats, they make it all muddy
- lead is pretty good, but i don't think its outstanding
- other then the melody, the overall sounds need more attention to detail and those small little things which have created a whole other area for creativity in more modern trance
It is pretty good, I am not going to comment on production but the overall song is interesting and melodic. It stands out with the bass and kick and energy, but I thought the melody or lead stuff was sorta more generic for the genre. The overall feel is great and the only thing I would do would be make a more powerful overwhelming feel to the leads at the break. These all are really smooth and nice, blend good but something to match that bassline would have to be the same level of energy, which I think the leads lack, they are too smooth and nice for this song.

since you aren't on msn right now, and before i forget, congrats on your signings with TTR! 4 of them I heard, although you need to refix Elude longer outro mate.
hey guys,
sounds very good! i like the bass, strong and powerful, but it's missing some low frequenties i think. percussion is ok, the synths are nice
breakdown... nice pads, the melody ..is great! very good job!
Excellent work guys! That main melody completely kills me. Looking forward to hearing this one on the dancefloor soon.
!!!
..is great! very good job!
