Hello all,
I'm about 12 months into the long journey of figuring out how all this works (music creation and production that is) and have ended up buying Cubase4/Reason4/Predator/Sylenth to aid that journey!
This track is a semi finished track and the end break can be ignored as it's just a few blocks randomly placed to try and finish it eventually. It's also not mixed at all so the kick get lost regularly.
I have no idea what genre you would call it but then I'm not really that bothered either :)
Any feedback would be appreciated

Great ideas.
The kick is down-right anemic. Once the track gets going, the overall mix looses some of its clarity and begins sounding muddy.
Keep working on it. At first, when I listened, it sounded very generic and familiar, but you put some really brilliant change-ups in it that made it worthwhile. You might try getting to your hook, a little sooner, but it's not necessary. If I were you, I'd focus on developing the track, further, in so far as its complexity continuum, work on the mix, and develop the kick.
What you have, as a work in progress, is definitely the right direction. |

I appreciate the feedback.
To be honest it's the first full track i've tried to complete that isn't just a piss about of ideas. As a fan on running an arp then fiddling with the cutoff i've probably got too much going on as well. The novice inside me (or in/out/all over me) is still struggling with compression and EQ as well so the muddiness is as you point out everywhere.
I do have an offer from somebody to mix it for me once it's structure is finished, including a run down of exactly what he's done as well.
Personally i'm not fussed about it sounding generic but i'm not disagreeing or being critical of your comment either :) I'm just happy to get something that sounds semi decent FINISHED at last and learn a lot in the process.
Once again thanks from the critique, much appreciated. |
