Originally posted by Jay M 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

Thans man, this can of critique is excellent, I agree my drums are very amateur, thanks for all the tips I am working in this track them on mind .

i love the feel of this track....feels like summertime...


in the beginning i agree....too much reverb on the clap..

one trick i learned from this site is:

take you clap with huge reverb....and cut it off half way through the decay...then bounce that to a new clap sample...then take that and add a small reverb to it....


nice work my man

Typing as I listen:

bit boring intro, maybe add some fx?
Waay too high and also the wrong kind of reverb on the clap imho.

Starting to get much better The bassline sounds a bit weird perhaps. I don't know if it's out of key or something (don't think so) but the last part of it sounds off in osme way.
Arp sounds good. I like the background melody @ 3 min, nice vibe.

Maybe work a bit more on your percussion.

Anyway all in all and when all the elements of the track comes together it sounds very neat

Edit: you should add an outro btw.
