Here is my last WIP which was called English Boys but it's taken a light hearted turn.
Does it need an 'epic' synth passage at the end (where the track currently ends)?
|
It's need a good frequency filling pad, because the synth lines aren't carrying it enough I think.
Here is something I found on my old computer, started working on it again.

I think this is awesome. This has some of the best sound design I have heard on one of your tracks and is very current sounding, while still being original and unique. |

Good melo and playing, what piano are you using, sounds great? |
I am not actually playing it, I wrote it in FL Studio and made a lot of changes to the velocities of the notes to give it a natural playing feel. The piano is a freeware VST called Piano One, with some reverb and compression. |

This would make a good track you should work on it. If not, send me the midi :haha:
|
I might make it into an EDM track in the future, but I have other projects at the moment. I sent you a message about the midi. |

From the off this got me nodding. That kick and perc are fantastic but I feel the track looses this special interplay as soon as the bass comes in.
Personally speaking I'd go back to just those first few seconds and build a simple rhythmic track around that part.
Thanks for commenting on mine - the original had shed loads of synths and melodies but I removed them because I wanted a very clean impact sound at full volume, so I ended up with whats here now.
You have prompted me to make those leads a bit more interesting and special though cos I know they are kinda basic sounding but I wont make the changes unless it comes out clean and loud at full volume.
Thanks to evo and trancelover for you feedback.
I'm so critical that I already think it's not good enough but I will finish this one. |

I really like this - especially the sub bass, but it seems very, very dry. There's almost too much room!
This is a remix I started working on that I'm pretty happy with. It's almost done. It's an attempt at kind of fusing the aggressive chopped & screwed kind of electro that I like with the big room sound. I'm probably gonna work on the growl sound that starts the phrase in the drop to make it more dynamic.

this is really good.....until the drop and the whole track changes mood into something else
it has a nice dark feel but i wouldnt go with the onbeat snares after the break, id be tempted to return to how the track was before the drop, maybe add some heavier noisy hats/rides or some sort of extra perc, taking care not to go too muddy
good job, my 2c... |

wouldnt be into this style at all but anyway, sounds a bit narrow to me?? not much width to my ears
also the snare isnt really having much impact for me, actually the whole drums need to come up i think - bit light on bass too |
