Sounds good man, I can't really advise on production quality - but things that I would say is that the breakdown is either too long, or not interesting enough for one of such length, also the main melody is maybe a little dull, as it's so prominent it needs to have a bit more stength to it I would say. Hope those are fair comments

thanks for the reply.. i'm gunna try toplay with that middle break section some more.. se what i can come up with..

I'm going to be adding some very warm pads in the background to play with during the break.. should be interesting

any more comments would be great

well it sounds like a pretty good basis. not sure if there's much of a hook. the melody doesn't really grab me - it sounds alright, just nothing special. imo it lacks tension, so trying changing the notes and adding some tension.

the final melody needs to evolve somehow too, either rhythmically melodically sonically or all three.

looking forward to hearing percussion when you put it in.

in the breakdown i think you really need to have a more engaging rhythm ( right now the background arps are boring ). plus the melody is too slow to act as a good buildup.

hope it all goes well for you. i look forward to hearing new versions as you get it ready for release!

Cut the "Ecstacy" vocal. It adds nothing.

Drums at beginning and end could use a little more variation. And maybe a deeper kick drum.

I agree the molody could be improved somewhat.

Also another harmonic synth would be good.... you just have that one fast one... maybe a bass harmony?

I like the track overall, I'm actually ok with how the breakdown works out. You do ride pretty heavily on that melody though... again.. try adding another synth and play with the drums a bit more.

That's my 2 cents, hope it was helpful.

not bad

told u everything u need to know on msn
