So, This is just a 27 second long intro thus far. My question for you guys is do you think that the delay/reverb is up to high. The riff didnt sound so great until I added some reverb and delay, gave it a more hypnotic feel. The kick drum is a bit heavy on the low end, its a little over powering so ill mix that down a bit. Also, idk where to go next, I feel like this lead takes up a lot of space in the track, so its kinda hard to make another synth and put in there. what do you guys think?

This sounds extremely muddy... Not sure where you're trying to go with it.

Muddy indeed, I think i just need to clear up some of the delay and reverb and mess w/ the EQ a bit. thats the feed back i was looking for! ty!

As previously said, it does sound very muddy; try sweeping the EQ and low cutting everything except kick and bass (yep, even the hats). Also, try low cutting the reverb and delay if you haven't already. Just my 2 cents.

thank you! I put a low pass on the lead and started to tweak it a bit more w/ that. we shall see! im lowering the delay and reverb right now too.
