hey guys,

i think the melody has a lot of potential, but still needs some work to tweak it right, i would also change the notes a bit, but all in all really good melody. I think it needs lot more effects in the breakdown, to make some more impressive atmoshpere or something, and needs a bit more effects at the ends too. I would use a submelody too buildung up to the main melody or something. The percs are great, the clap needs definitely more reverb and some delay i think. Add some more drive to the bassline, like above & beyond do, try making some driving sub-bass or something, the pads are great


overally it needs some more work on it, some more tweaking, mastering right, and you guys will have a quality track

btw, what software do you use for producing music?

cheers,

Peter

Hosting is down Perry - should be up soon.

Thanks for the comments ilovetrance

We know we've got some stuff to do to make it amazing, but its our real first collab and only my second track in six months of production

We're using Logic 5.5 on PC with VST's like Vanguard, Pro53 and the in-built logic ones

I like the idea behind this...potential here? I THINK SO!

Interesting melody! I like it...but its not too syrupy..you know...its got hooks, but not sickly sweet and annoying like some hooks.

Love the instruments too...i agree that some counter-melody needs to be intertwined into its development!

And needs a good mixdown fo sho!

Other than that... WAY TO GO GUYS!

Seems like we're gonna go over this one again and pick up what people have said and make some alterations

great sounds here

the tune is nothing special for me and the main synth could use some more strengh.

good percussions and bass and counter synths and ambiances

firstly, the sound quality is great! top production skillz here.
the compression on the mix out seems to alternate everytime there is a large kick or climax? might want to sort that. melody is nice and whiteroomish, good pads too.

after the break the tune kinda wanders and loses interest
try get some more elements in there to maintain interest

massive potential here

Cheers for the kind words John, encouraging to hear about the potential as we were just happy getting some music down and out there.

I'm looking forward to getting back to going over and alter some parts so we can start to push it more
