- really nice intro sounds. how did you do that bass pad?
- nice trumpet, really gives the electronic sounds a nice contrast
- percs in intro sound good, but maybe use a different sample for the drum, something more alive sounding
- really nice bg effects
- cool bass effect at 2:00. are you gating the pad there?
- nice gates at ~ 3:00. maybe you should bring them in and out more, for a more intense effect, and more pan too.
- nice touch with the bird fx. once again, give good contrast
- i like the transition out of the gate and back in
- amazing re-introduction of the trumpet that breakdown part is a total trance
- maybe you should have more of a tension build when the main beat comes back
- ever thought of gating the trumpet too?
- overall, the track could be better with a different, flatter kick IMO.
- also, maybe work more with the subtle perc and effects you got going just to add variation here and there. sort of like what Sultan & Tonedepth have done on "Sagres"

Bass pad is a Korg polysix VST, a basic supersaw, and yeah, its
gating with a bit of sidechaining comp later on.

Choirs could indeed be panned a little, thanks for bringing it out, will try it. I'll also reconsider the transition into the climax.
No, I haven't thought about gating the trumpet, but i think it could be used in transition... with a bit of bitcrush it could sound awesome

It seems the kick is the issue of all listening to this
I changed it around a lot, but i realy like this one now, and it works well i think... so I dunno really. Maybe...

I'll "obtain" the track you mentioned... maybe I can learn something.

Thanks for this awesome feedback! You really brought light on some things I woudn't thought of that might be cool to have

I did this stuff, I used a gate and a bitcrusher on the trumpet in the transition... and its like OMG
Works spot on.
I also did some volume variations on the choir, and used a stero expander + more verb, so that should be fixed now.

What is left to do is to drop the little FXes here and there.
Will do that, eventualy

Also, I've been discussing the name of the tune... "Trumpet" sound somehow "off" ... So far, since the project name "organic function" applies use of names with anatomic connection... "Aorta" seems to be chosen... so far

Sample will be updated in the next day or two.

Wow, I'm really impressed by this track. Lots of great sounds and a ton of originality. There are so many subtle things going on that show how much attention to detail you've paid. Just a few thoughts:

-I personally like the kick
-I think that choir is maybe a little too thick in the mids, maybe picking it up an octave would sound better?
-The fading in of the kick out of the break really ruined it for me, it sounded great until then.
-Whatever that shaker thing is that you've quantized needs to be fixed. it's cool that you tried to add the human touch sound, but that just sounds like lazy playing. tighten up the quantization to get it a little more on tempo.
-The bass pad sounds good as a pad, but i really don't like it as the main bassline. I'd suggest a sound more like in Kalafut & Fygle - Lullaby

Overall very good work tho.
