| Wow, thats pretty good! The song stucture around the intro sounds like it needs a work out, but otherwise its pretty good. Also could use a bit more reverb on synths and percussion |

not bad at all.
-I like the fluttering synth thing, but i think it falls off tempo by a small amount. Also filter it in from a lighter velocity or lower cut.
-Also, that gated sound! nice chords. maybe try to minimize the click/pop sound that preceeds each one.
-The randomness of cymbals/snares in the beginning makes it nice and interesting.
Very good start. Post the full thing when you're done for sure k?:) |

This is an interesting old-school ditty!
Reminds me of a juvenile, really rare song called "Save the Whales" by Silent Harmony
Neat. |

The kick is too powerful imo it drains out the bass slightly, try compressing the kick and bass or EQing it. Also you might want to layer song Hi-Hats b/c all I hear is 1 open hat.
Try something like
O = open Hat
C = Closed hat
CCO-CCO-CCO-CCOC
Overall though you have a good start, the bassline sounds good, the overall sound could use a tune up, the song's a little muffled. |

this is actually quite good but theres a couple things that it could do with. i dont think the kick is too dominant - i dont think its powerful enough. it doesnt sound compressed which is something you may want to do. the off hats are very basic, maybe have some 1/8ths and 1/16ths going and swing them a bit to get into a groove. the snare roll sounds a bit weak. i would probably change the snare sample to something a bit snappier. if you search for some TR-909 sample packs theres some quite hard snares there. the gated lead after the snare roll is a bit too quiet. i feel like it could do with widening in stereo. open the filter cutoff a little bit more i think. one thing i noticed is that the offhat remains the loudest most dominant part of the track post snare roll when i feel it should be the leads that are dominant.
i quite like this though - you should definitely keep at it. |

Sorry to come back to this old topic but just wanted to answer some questions...
{b.s.e.}: how can I make it sound unique and yet keep that trance feel to it?
TonyZ: Old skool? I was going for more 02 03 type but I guess it didnt come across as that, any ideas why?
DjGeMiNi529: I used plain ol Fruity 3.5
thanks |
