I would be forever grateful for some feedback to my work in progress. I guess it would be trance. Many thanks~

WIP October by myersttam

Here is an update...

WIP updated by myersttam

Well; what i like is the concept of the progression. This track has some potential but IMO the synths need ALOT of work. the bass with that fat layer of white noise is not so pleasant on the ears, and sounds very out of place. I dont care much for the kick either, there seems to be no bass on it. I think a different kick, or a very altered version of that kick could add alot to the precense and energy of the track. I really like the groove of the cymbals and that other drum sound I here going though, that works rather well. I'd work on the synths, and mix them into their own spot. But, this is just my opinion! nice work though mate it has a lot of directions it could go!

basically what sicc said. Id scrap that kick altogether. the track has some interesting elements but they just need to be polished. post updates so we can hear the progression.

Thanks for the input, I'm working on mixing together some of these sounds, I can see how there is a lot of hi frequencies floating around. Gonna post an update soon. I'm scrapping the kick for something with some more low end that sounds better in the mix. Thanks again, I will post changes soon

Looking forward to hearing it.

I changed the drums, added a new percussive element and a couple other things. I tried to clean up some of the synths, but I still get this fuzzy distortion out of it and im not sure why, i have them all rolled off at 10-12k with a lpf and i still get that noise... any advice? Also any advice how to get a bit tighter kick sound? Input welcome~ Thanks again!8

Looking foward to here your progress. The distortion is probably due to the signal clipping, mix it down a bit, quite a bit if you cant get rid of it though you might have enabled some disto in the vst xD. that could be a lot of things though. As for a "tighter" kick, i find that cutting out some of the low end helps give it a round "tight" feeling, as does shortening the sample length and giving it a snappy decay. follow your intuition!
