The arrangement and the composition is good. It seems too thin for too long though, but it really kept up my anticipation.
It seems really plain and non-descript at first, but just grows into a wall of sound.
I think it needs more air. I know some of the big boys use harmonic exciters, but I am not an expert, I'm a novice who wants to take things further. |

| I noticed the same thing about the Airpad, I was actually looking for some good plug-ins to do that with ! Thank you for the recommendation! :) |

Well it is not progressive in my book as it sounds exactly like an early house track from about 1991.
When the lead gets fuller that sound shows some promise though, but you need to make every other sound much more refined and then bring it all together with transitional elements and a groove.
No worries, I guess your on the journey so keep at it. |

Perc loop is a bit too Vengeance out of the box sound, but that's not really a major critical assessment of the track, just an observation. Not really feeling any bottom end to help move the track along, seems to be relying on that synth and the perc loop too much. The hook you're focusing on is OK, but it's just not that memorable. The timing on the notes on the synth after the breakdown is a little too computer sounding for my taste, it might just be the envelope.
In other words, the composition and arrangement seem to be all over the place. The production is OK but not anything special at the moment, although I have no major qualms with the track it's just not too stellar at the moment. |

I don't know if I'd say there's anything really wrong with the track aside from the fact that's it's very boring. The track is 4 minutes long and nothing happens for the first minute. That can be executed well if the track is ~6/7+ minutes but here it just takes up way too much time.
The man "lead" synth is very cheesy and needs a lot of work. It sounds like you recorded the audio from a little Casio keyboard from Radio Shack :p
The bassline synth is too simple. It needs some oomph. There's nothing there. Maybe some wavetable modulation on an envelope or something to give it some drive. Once again sounds like a Casio keyboard preset.
You use that cymbal impact thing way too often, during the last minute of the track I swear to god you used it 462 times.
The track needs some transitions and builds and excitement. At the moment it just sort of plods along and you wait for something to happen and then it ends. |

Thanks alot for the feedback ! I am working on making the tracks I make less loopy, I realised it myself too, I also agree with the boring 1 minute intro. Thank you for the advice I'll try to make it better !
I'm just new in producing, like 2 3 months in too it,I also use a pretty old version of FL studio :S I do this as a hobby, it's nothing too serious, but of course it's like any other hobby I like getting better at it, so that's why feedback is greatly appreciated ! |
