Really pleased wiv this

Just put together a progressive version of Meltdown( Psy DNB Mix) originally it had been a Euphoric Track before i dnb'd it, now this is the progressive version...I'm really pleased with the breakdown and the drop which instead of building into a usual euphorik drop, falls into a nice bassy-sparkly riff eace:


Melodic, Euphoric and Sparkly Progressive Trance, quite fast @ 144 for progressive

Miszt - Meltdown (MisztikalMix) Updated


feedback appriciated! i think the sound works pretty well so far

listening...i like the fx or pads in the background. bassline seems a little bland so far...the percs get a little repetetive. This reminds me of old school trance which isn't a bad thing. Something paul van dyk would play in his sets from like 1999 or 2000. Is it just me or is the timing on this off? Its a neat song.

You have some ok sounds and things going on. However you really need to beef them up. For instance your kick is way too simple...it is like a little pop where you need a thud...make it deep and dark. Your bass you need to tweak a lot as well, try to veer away from the typical kick-bass-kick-bass-kick-bass-kick-bass repetition. You also need to add more layers to your bass which will give it more depth making it sound much fuller. Your percussions also need a lot of work as well...they weren't bad they were just very simple. Did you make this in fruity loops? Because some of the samples sound like them. I think you need to go for more "pro" sounding samples. Its a good start though. You have a lot of good ideas banging around so keep it up!

thanx for your feedbak nope this was made in Cubase with Albino, VStation, Battery and my emuXL, the kik is ment to be clicky, i prefer psy style kiks, but it does need beefin up, i noticed i cut the decay off allot more than I thought, will sort that n bring the bass bak into it!


the Bassline has been driving me nuts, i originally had a psy style double bassline, but getting the sound right was drivin me nuts so I went bak to this one, theres 2 layers of bass and 2 diffrent basslines going on, once I get the 'proper' bassline sitting well I'll put it bak in

the precussion is ment to sound simple, but yep they need to evolve more thru the track for sure

I love the old skool sound actually my aim is to make more oldskool sounds mixed with Psychedelic....still workin on that tho, juz a noobie


where does it sound out of time? not sure why that wuld b...its all quantized midi lol

Just listening....

- I like the intro a lot
- Nice build up, although not too keen on that bass line (i have the same problem with basslines - they never seem right to me!)
- still building.... really nice melodic sounds
- 2.05 seems a bit empty after some nice build up
- its now 3 minutes, and I cant quite see where its going yet...
- 4.35 nice melodies - I know what they say about old school - but in a nice way!
- Im really liking this overall, a very easy listening track. I dont think its a floorfilla but something i could listen to in the car

Overall, really good - it has all the trance essentials, but it takes a while to get going IMO.

Keep 'em coming!
