That was actually my track that he quoted but went wrong and it looked like he posted it lol
Look for the ninjitsu track thats his.. Speaking of which the bit from 45s to 58s is really groovy, just needs the bass to be more huge! |

OK at 3:00 mark till 3:15 I would like to hear a bit polished transition to 3:15 part which is really good with nice emotional impact on listener (with this nice symphonic synths sound) -> at 3:29 this particular arpy sounding pluck (you can leave if you really like it) I would support (at least from 3:55) with something sharp and thick like this sound at 1:26 or combo of two or more synths:
Sorry if you don't like Avicii lol, it is just for reference only ;)

pretty good man, would make a nice intro track into a heavy set, those arp'd plucks are nice
Just wondering if it would sound better without the silent part before the drop? |
Cheers for the feedback man. Its still pretty rough just now so will look at changing that transition for sure.. thanks |

I would definitely say that this idea is really sweet my friend but unfortunately your execution is not at the same level -> your volume level is really low in this WIP and because of that your dynamics suffer quite a bit. I had to turn my volume level almost all the way up to have some acceptable listening experience so try to spend a bit more time on this aspect of your production and result could give you a lot more benefits then you think ;)
Just my $0.02

Glad you like dude, the first 30 secs i think i will change or trim as they are quite low, for the rest i wanted it to be somewhat quieter than the main drop. cheers |

Really dig the early part when it's all subdued and the synth is closed up, but after this it looses all the mystery for me. Personally I'd prefer it all centred around the early vibe but others may like it as it is. |

Since there's three tracks in the post im quoting, it might a little easier to leave comments on all the tracks.
Seandroid: The track is not my style, but I do appreciate the ambition to tell a story, and go somewhere instead of churning out some some boring motif stretched out (w/different drum parts coming and going, and 10min drumroll, or some other stupid build up just to hear the same tired old motif that got stale 8 bars after the song started) to steal 5-10 of my life. I'll have to give it a few more listens to try to get into it, and maybe i can offer a more detailed critique.
TranceLover007: Not really my style either... but a little closer to what I would listen to. I felt your bassline was a little to loud in relationship w/the kick. It sounded a little too upfront, or more approprietly the kick and the claps/hat sound too soft/low in volume.
I liked the sense of space behind all the elements the reverb creates, but the mix feels like it lacks some depth. W/the reverb making everything sound more upfront/closer to the listener, but the relationship between the sounds feel more like differences in volume w/out much of a sense distance, making soundstage sounds a little off in my opinion.
BluffMonkey: This more my style. :) I would love to hear you develop the idea more. I hear major balance issues. To me, the kick is way too loud. instead of turning the kick down, turn everything else UP! The element/melody that comes in @ :30... barely noticable. I can't really comment on the other aspects of your mix, since I can't hear it. ;p It's stuff worth listening to, but it's hard to enjoy it as much as possible w/that kick stomping all over everything.

I absolutely love how punchy the bass line is!
I think the synth in the breakdown that starts at 1:30ish is a little too simple. It doesn't have much character. It's too clean.
I'd actually say the latter half of the track is where it starts to lose direction for me. I had hoped it was going to have a huge impact into something powerful and big but it's very gentle.
It works though. And I mean, it depends what your direction was and where you wanted to take it. It could be very purposeful.
That throaty bass line is ing dope.
Here's what I've got going, I posted an earlier version a while ago but this is approaching full length now.

Yes conjours up the aliens alright. Nice sounds, from your Moog?
EVO - I think the early part of that track is great, don't scrap it!
Here's a WIP where I'm trying to keep things cleaner and simpler;
