Originally posted by dj_palm first of all i think the baseline and kick lacks of power, needs more energy and depth eventho its a chill tune. Melody very nice at 1:40 and out. String also very good. Hmm less reverb at the clap/snare and drop that ugly "prodigy-bell" that lyes on the first beat of a bar. would be cool to hear a more energetic version of this one.

Thanks, fixing the clap hehe all told me da same and puting less reverb on the piano/delay .

Ah, nice track kopi- I like the summervibe feel to it- its gotta be the atb sounding bassline, props on that. The intro is a bit, not my style- but then it gets smooth- sounds like something PVD would play. The only thing i would do is work on that intro, everything else sounds great.

Hmm. Definitely a good track here. Happy but not cheese. The one real suggestion I have is the shaker in the left channel is too loud. Tone that down a bit and it'd make the track come together a bit better. As it is, it distracts from the rest of the elements.
Now you're going to get me on a rant about snare rolls. The snare roll would be better putting it under a filter and bringing it in earlier than you have it coming in. Bring the amplitude up a bit, then filtersweep up and amp sweep up at the same time. Do a bit of panning while it's happening, too. E.g. snare roll comes in on the left ear filtered pretty heavily. As it moves to the right ear, it gets louder and the filter cutoff raises a bit. And so on and so forth.

Great track here, though. Reminds me of a summer evening spent watching the sunset and being with friends.

Hey there,

Nice track. Kick feels very nice and the highhats strand out from the mix very well (something I always have trouble with)

The clap or snare seems a bit too loud perhaps and somewhat grainy like the sample quality is too low.

Very uplifting and energetic track. Has a distinct feel to it. Like others have said... very summery feel to it.

The melody could do with more work though. Its good but doesnt quite get me there... =)

Theres this really cool synth at 5.48 which I think could do some serious damage if placed earlier on in the track, but thats just my personal preference.

Excellent idea, thanks man for sure I am adding that snare roll like you explained it, soon new version coming with that tip .

Musically (Melody wise) this track is fine, great stuff!

However the tune lacks depth, it needs a bit more power! stronger kick, maybe knock the clap a bit down in eq so it sits more in the background of the sound spectrum (it seems to be hitting my ears more than it should).
I think what would make this sound better is a stronger element of bass on the kick drum and bass line, it just all sounds a bit too reverby!

Good work though..

Hi.

Ok pretty standard hat from the beginning. Need more dynamic percussion line!
Bass is short and has a nice character, but it lacks power so you really need another bass layer here and give this more color.
Synth coming at first is a bit flat like this, without backup.
Nice pads in the break. Clap is very standard and the percs really need attention. Pretty happy tune, I like the melody. Synths are a big muddy pool, no room for each other so they drown. Give every sound his own room in the frequency, and give the lead synth the most power cause there's need for a lead here (there's none atm for my feeling)
Nice piano, touchy.

Overall nice to see that you've put some work in this. Give some attention to the percussion, the mixdown/eq and the bass.

-Jay
