hey buddy, nice tune,

i think the bassline is a bit cheesy, but i work with cheesy basslines to lol maybe turn up the volume of your percussions a bit, the main synths are overpowering.. the breakdown is cool, i like the pad work.
the arpeggio sounds very sweet, the name "Spellbound" fits the track well.

i enjoyed it. and look forward to the full version


Bidor.

Its quite cheesy in the kick department, but maybe thats the style your going for... I also think I've heard parts of it before, is there a sample in there around 1:30? Maybe chicane or something from that period? I could be wrong... But the more I think about it the more I think I'm right. Anyway, not really my thing, but I guess the productions OK. Good luck.

Ah, I just found the sample, its chicane's red skies right? I love playing spot the sample!

I would have a second lower freq monophonic offbeat bass on that bass... the fills the track a little better in that half prior to the break down

I love the roll up before the bass.... but i would use that arp of that break in the roll up to repeating the the 8 steps first, then 4 then 2 then 1 at the end... you know like what you do in the claps..,. or change the arp's amount of playable octaves from 3 2 to 1... then add some delay on it right before it shuts down in the apex... great energy in this song.

could you check mine out>?

thanks for the feedback, will check out your tracks shortly.

The samples (vocal and the hoovery synth) are from prodigy tracks, maybe thats where chicane took it from. Everything else is original except one of the drum loops.

Yeah I picked the vocal and synth as being from the prodigy, but the pads at about 1:30 are almost identical to a chicane track (I'm pretty sure) I've heard, could just be coincidence I guess. I do like that little pad bit around there though, whatever the case.

good tune, has energy... nice main sounds, but bass is a little to annoying. generally i'll give u 8+/10
