Hello,
I really enjoyed listening to it - it wasn't as bad as you made it out to be lol!
I liked the idea for the melody, and I thought the sounds that you used were good and fitted into the track well.
I agree with you in that the bass sounds a little 'off' sometimes but I can't figure out what it is!
The initial synth also comes in too suddenly - maybe it needs a fade or something, just experiment and see what works and what doesn't. You also need to do a fade near the end where you lose the synth.
Overall, I enjoyed it. Keep going, and just enjoy it! |

The synths need some mastering, they doesn't sound very clean imo, intro/outro also needs some more energy, maybe add some effects or something to make it sound more complete.
I liked the melody although it is a bit repetive. You should consider making some variations in it, not much is necessary imo, just a little maybe. It was relaxing, exactly what I needed right now :)
The bass is very simple, you really need to work on it some more.
Overall it's a good start for a great tune imo. I liked it :happy2: |

I agree with danxx. It's a really pleasant track, I think you should try to automate the cutoff for the main synth at 1:56 ;)
The melody is nice, really peaceful, I like the atmosphere of the song.
For a first release it's a good job :) just need to work it a little bit ;) |

| Not bad. I wish my first track sounded like this. The main synth does come in to sudden and falls out too sudden at 5:30. try putting small build ups up to when they come in. Perphaps a snare roll with some crash at the peak. That way we will be expecting it instead of catching us offguard. Very nice overall, you have potential. |

| Cheers for the replies :) Yeah, I rushed finishing it, bits just fly in and out, I hope to go back in a few months with a bit more skill and put in the time and effort and hopefully pull off what I wanted (a bit softer really, hard to explain what I was aiming for :)) |

damn.. i wished my first track was this good.. must agree with others about the sudden entrance of the synth.. but thats nothing to sort out..
im not sure what your using. but here's my top tip:
add a filter to the mixer channel of the main synth, then automate the "Cutoff Frequency" (may also be known as the Filter Freq) from a very low value, up to its highest.. over a 8 bar period, this will allow you to build the track into a very energetic yet soft piece..
As for getting the track to be melodic.. try using a softer synth sound on the main lead.. and having the little offshoots as the more raspy synth :)
hope these ideas help.

Dammmnnn, I wish my first one sounded this good!
For only producing alittle while your def on the right track. Just some more mastering and filtering and the track will be way smoother. Nice Melodies! |

1. like the opening baseline, synth is cool too.
2. the ooh's kinda suck, definatley need a transition at 1:57 althoguh the new beat is cool, but you need to turn it down a little.
3. I like the beat with the arpeggio's at 3:30ish.
4. sounds very good at 4:20 (no pun intended)
the rest from there is really good i just think the intro needs some refinement. overall, especially for your first, it's really good.
as for a name suggestion how about DJ Rusht? lol |
