Hi there!

I'd really like some construction criticism of this piece, so I can get better at this stuff.

It's a combo of prog house, trance, and whatever Vangelis is considered.

Prosperity on Soundcloud

Sorry about that mate.

The strings are a gazillion times to loud. You almost can't hear the beat. Everything sounds like it is clipping really really hard. Fix that and then we can actually try and listen ;).
arskinetica
I'm running into the loudness war thing.

I want it to be clear be loud.

Thanks for your honesty.

Any advice?
arskinetica
I'll rewire Record to Ableton and do a mix there.
Storyteller
Don't worry about loudness. Make it sound good without anything on the master first. It's really really far off from where on should want it to be right now unfortunately.
arskinetica
I totally agree.

I was too focused on that, and it does sound as clippy as you said. Wow. Guess I was too enamored with "hey, this sounds kind of neat and stuff"

Can't have a good project if the production sucks before the mastering stage.

arskinetica
Ah.

I've noticed though, that a ton of commercial records just sound huge and airy.
