You seem very talented. I think the song comes across as a bit hard to follow, in my opinion, kind of wandering. But, there are a lot of beautiful and rich elements. I think the drums are the weakest part, but that is easy enough to fix.
Genre seems to be uplifting trance and some electro. |

Thanks - yea I agree with you about the drums - I'm afraid to fix them tho because I feel like i'll mess up the whole thing haha :crazy:
I am currently exporting an updated version with some JP8000 pads / chords and some sub bass sort of things. Also I've edited that bass part in the beginning parts of it I didn't like.
Also I added a legato bass for the slow parts.
Lots of compressor threshold automation for the sidechains in this project - never done that before.
anyway thanks for the kind words I'll upload the new version as soon as its done exporting. |

| great structure and good vibes, this isnt quite my taste in music (anymore), but this was produced pretty damn well. To much reverb and the plucks that play through out the track, which can really bring down the volume of the original sound itself, and inturn bring up alot of noise. I'd cut the verb on those plucks, and maybe filter out the lower end of the delays. nice work though. im impressed. |

thanks!
yea I know what you mean about the reverb - I think the wet level and the dry level are equal - so perhaps i should lower the wet level a bit and raise the dry level.
again, thanks! |

| I always like seeing inside producers projects. Curious, do you play piano? Also, it is interesting to see some of the levels maxed out on the mixer. |

Acomplished work this, and you handle a busy project with skill.
For me, it is missing a little originality as I've heard many tracks like this. |

Thank You! Yea, I know what you mean. There's a lot of tracks with spanish guitar feel to them.
I have a project I created called Ring Galaxy - Haven't worked on it for a few months now, but those tracks are aimed at being more original / atmospheric.

Like i said though, haven't worked on it for a while, so the quality isn't exactly pristine. |

| Hey I like it and think you definitely have a talent - keep practicing! I like the way you layered the melodic elements halfway through the track. I do feel there is a tad too much effects muddying things and some of your EQing and mixing take away from the track elements really working together. Also found a little overcompressed at points. But a sweet vibe and like how you are learning how to manage more complexity in your mix - good work! |

| It sounds very, very generic on the verge of the nauseating, but your avatar makes me think you are still pretty young so hopefully you'll grow up to make some sick original tracks in some years, because it sounds like you have the producing pretty much figured out. |

Haha yea I understand what you mean - I hate when producers start using all of these cliches. Yea I'm 17 so you guessed right but I'm just trying to get the producing down before I sart writing some serious tracks.
Thanks to all for feedback so far |
