Nice tune,
Like:
- sounds used
- effects uses (delays, reverbs)
- transition into break
- Percussion
- Some nice melodies
Needs work:
- weak kick (maybe thats what you want)
- track structure
- play around with that riff that comes in at 1:40... whack a filter of your choice on it... and automate the cutoff. Because that riff was getting really repetitive and boring by 3:00... around with it.
good work mate |

This is tight.
My recommendations: Lose that melody loop thing that comes in at 1:40. Cut it completely, or do some max James Holden style compression. It sounds really bad. Leave the breakdowns as is, they rule.
Worq the bass. Make it a little more noticable, and you'll have a hella funkai tune.
Nice. |

this is fan in tastic.
bassline is there but not quite?
but i like it like that.
love the atmosphere of the pads + progressions.
workin the music theory? :)
love the little reverse hats
only qualm is melodies. flat.
i think you can expand on them while remaining subtle.
hell, throw a few more in the background.
just suggestions. but love the work.
edit: what's with the names? lagoona, serengeti? |

wow thanks guys.
yeh im gonna sit down now and work on something to fit that first melody to make it more interesting.
wade, ur right the highs are a little muddy, will fix that.
regarding the bass, yeh its extremely low in frequency, but i think it goes nicely.. sorta reminds me of Lemon 8 - 'NY NY' (not that it can compare or anything :p)
jaykue: dunno why lagoona, just thought of it and sounded okay. serengeti - huge wildlife park in africa, i think it suites the track hehe (gilmista actually thought of this one!) |

Well done Jace.
Not heard any of your other tracks but this one is great. Not really my style to be honest but like it a lot :) |

i like the theme.
reminds me of ferry's tagalog [fillipino] track titles.
just thought they may have held some significance to urself.

i really don't think u'll need to be changin sequencer :) |

Wouldn't it be something more like if you're doing all this in FL, imagine what you can get out of a more professional sequencer?

but man. that means time out to relearn a new program's interface :(
i ain't a pro but slap me ears silly if jace's "serengeti" doesnt sound quite the pro production already. |

serengeti does a little i guess coz im originally from sth africa
haha
yeh.. i dont really use fruity that much, just for melodies (using imported synth samples)
i do all my sequencing in acid pro and use a load of samples
moving onto reason soon though.. |
