hi, i originaly posted this yesterday but due to forum upgrade (or some techincal problems) it was deleted.
anyway, i've got this sample i did, and i've heard it soo many times that i can't tell if it's good or bad anymore. maybe some of you could listen to it and leave some feadback, is it worth finishing it?

| hey man...i'll give it a listen now. Nice elements at the beginning..i dont know what style your going for but that synth w/e element your doing in the break doesnt really do it for me :( not my cup of tea. Your bass seems low at times..maybe you should back it up with another bass patch or something. |

it's supposed to be trance, and that synth is a pad-ish supersaw.
i've noticed the bass is a bit too low in volume, i'll fix that.
thanks for listening :) |

| i had said to play around more with the keys in the break, its just not interesting enough... if you layered a vocal over it though , it would do the job. When the keys pick up, its is very nice though! |

this doesnt just sound like 'trance' to me man.
first, you need more keys.
second, there is no catchy melody. plus it doesnt sound right.
third, it sounds like an old school track.
from hearing this, im assuming youre a beginner or else i just dont understand the style or whatever youre trying to get to.
imo, to make this song better there must be a remix done that has alot of changes.
i hope im not sounding too harsh but thats my honest opinion. but i give you props for making music cause i know its nothing easy! |

I like the production value. It's pretty clean.
I also LOVE the old school feel in general.
If you get some proper chord progression in there it would be good.
Just use something generic and repost it to see what everyone says.
Like
ACE, DFA, EGB, ACE
Just do that for most of the mix, use a different one for the break ( something that adds tension to bring back the ACE... like
ACE FAC CEG -> and..
back to the original ACE, and I guarantee a better response.
[edit]
On second thought, I'll wager you don't know much about chords, so read this, and then do what I said.

The blues chord progression actually sounds fecking awesome with a supersaw BTW @.@ |

@ WiKKid sKiLLz - thanks, yeah vocals would be awesome.
@ stefanoc - thank you for the honest words, it's good to know what people really think. about the keys, i can't change much cuz it's a rmx (http://www.ivibes.nu/index.php?article=4360) i thought it would be fun, though i could work on the chord progression and variation. i'm no professional, i've only started like 5-6 months ago.
@ djglacial - thanks for the detailed comments and suggestion.
cheers :) |

| ive been at it for 8 years :P I might know what im doing, but personally, i am sure my music would be regarded as trash to most everyone. Even I find the quality near unbearable... But thats what you get when you like to do things the hard way - I dont use software, and i mix live |

You have to appreciate the irony in this comment coming from a guy who calls himself "WiKKid skiLLz"... |
