Hello out there.
Time has come to present the first of my traxx:
Ian Vanderson - Havanna Beach (Demo Cut).mp3
I`ve trimmed the Orignal track from 7:42 minutes to a 3-minute-"Demo Cut"-version. Hope its enough to get a feeling of this track.
I`ve used Reason 2.5 and a middle class sound system, so my mastering abilities and/or possibilities are lil bit limited.
Would be glad to hear some Opinions about the track from you. Please feel also free to criticize my work. I`ll cope with this. ;) |

| sounds good man. what do you mean by middle class sound system? |

Thank you, mef. :)
I`ve got a 600 Dollar-compact-Surroundsound-system. Mastering is not so easy with my speakers, cause their frequencies are not outbalanced enough for getting a good sound on other sound systems, too. So mostly my tracks seem to be less powerful and darker on other ones soundsystems. |

You need more backup voices during the breakdown...you tend to lose the listener the way you have it structured here.
I liked the initial buildup right before everything dropped off, but after that it was pretty weak. I think you can do a better job on the buildup.
Track could sound better sped up about 5-10 bpm. Your lead is a bit too loud, it tends to overshadow everything else.
Loving the unique sound though - brings an originality to it. |

Thank you very much for your cutup, tranc3.
You are right. I`ve heard my track with headphones just now and it seems to be lil bit boring. The bassline is almost completely swallowed by the melody guitar synth, I should really change this.
`will update this track soon. Hope to change this one to a worth-to-listen-track sometime. ;) :p |

Nice tune,
I think those guitar string things need to be emphasised a bit more, perhaps a bit more variation in melody too? Production definitely needs more work. I agree with tranc3 - the breakdown really does need something else in the background like vocals or some kind of wooshing pads.
The track sounds like it definitely has potential, keep at it mate. |

I think this track totally has potential, but it needs to be taken to the next level somehow. A few little tweaks here and there and master this sucker and it might come out crisper. On that dark sine (dunno how to describe it, i dont have the technical knowledge or experience to back me), for the last bit of the demo, might sound nicer with a note variation on the 2nd to last one of each loop.
i dunno, its hard to describe, its like its soo close, some small change or tweak could push it over the edge.. hmm. |
