There's a bad disco smile on this one. ;) Otherwise sounds good to me. What did you use for mastering?
Kris Xperiment
Thanks, I have'nt mastered it, it's simply been eqd in fl studio i tried to clean it up as much as i could without whipping out the waves diamon bundle.

This sounds good to me.

Perhaps the kick could be made a little crispier but on the whole it's got a nice balance.

Do you use the standard FL parametriq and other EQ? Or is it plugins?

Cheers

sounds good overall :)

as mentioned before, the kick could indeed be crispier. the lower frequency spectrum could be cleaned up a little. sounds a little messy at some parts.
but else mastering-wise..thumbs up

Sounds fine to me, although some additional mid frequency percussion could be added to increase the drive of the track. But thats just my opinion.

Overall it's good.

I'll give some constructive critics:
- Try adding a bass sound on a higher octave so you get a bit more drive in the song.
- In the buildup, you got to much random percs. That semi-open hihat sound bothers me. It hits so randomly it seems, and it's not a good sample. Try FX'ing it up with some flanger and delay.
- Kick needs to be tune a little bit. Both EQ and the sample itself so it doesn't "collide" with itself during the rolls. If you're unsure about how to do this, I can make a quick tutorial. It's a good trick! ;)
- The shakers are a tad to high. Lower them by 3 - 4%.
- The guitar sound has a good atmospheric vibe to it. Tweak the EQ a bit. It has a lot more potential. Give it some proper delay and some subtle long reverb.

That's just if you want to be picky. Good tune, good production. :)

Thx everyone for your replies, corteoz that helped so much, It would help inmensely if you hooked me up with a quickie :)
Corteoz
Glad I could help. :)
I'll try to put together a tutorial. Haven't made any FL tutorials yet, but I'll see what I can do. I'll post it as a new topic once i'm done. I'll see if I can do it before i'm off to a party tonight. ;)
Corteoz
Sorry, only 70% done. I'll have it up by tomorrow I think.
Cheers.

Corteoz
Done! :)
