This one has the 2nd drop and a lot of fit and finish done.
I've shortened this track by nearly 3 minutes, re-recorded every vocal, and did a bunch of work on the arrangement. :)
At 2.40 in track one this really comes together, love that part.
Well done on your vocal work, I know how much effort this would have required.

Interesting, do you feel like it sounds that way before the drop too? I don't think it sounds notably strained and I can hit that note pretty easily but maybe it sounds that way? hm
Yes, it feels that way each time. Perhaps you're pushing too hard from your diaphragm?

dig both. Im a sucker for melody and both songs have some great melodies going on. Really like the hook on survive, I think its killer, and the harmonies just add that extra something.
Still, I wanna hear that chorus really open up and explode, I got the same initial feeling as when I heard the song the first time in that the chorus/hook section sounded more to me like a "false" chorus which was about to repeat itself but with more impact the mext time around. Obviously thats just me! Awesome work mate, really dig your vox.
Hey I still wanna know what mic and pre you use, sounds nice!

Sounds good,I would try to mix a bit more dynamic/open if possible, it's allready plastered quite full, create a bit more air and contrast.
The break still sounds a bit dull, not going anywhere, that might work but then I would cut it in half, like a contrast and back to the beat.
the overall groove/feel is great.

Here's Clown finished, and I'm pretty pleased with the drop, I added more drive and did a proper break, wut do ya fink of the mix n stuff before I get this mastered?

Nice bit darker 2step with up to date bass, sounds good.

Hi Richard
its good to be back doing some music again
cool track! I think the first "thats not funny" is too dry maybe the whole track could do with more reverb imo
the fx at 1:00 like a reverse vocal fx is really cool how did you do that?
im Listening on my laptop and headphones, but the bass sounds banging, the fx are really cool and keep it interesting. Pretty warped!
I feel like the track could do with a nice big 909 ride on the off beat personally to help it chug along, or a bit more hi hats/percussion but that may just be me.
Heres my WIP. The mix is still rough and bear in mind its going to have vocals so I've deliberately left space etc

Lovely soundscape, drums are sweet. Some of your synth stabs and hits are for me too loud and when they hit the grove is temporarily lost.
Epic sound there at 2.30. Kraftwerk sounding synths, great.
I like the first halve or so but I would say it starts too sound overly full as time goes on so it looses its vibe. In places go back to just a beat and maybe a little rhythmic addition to give contrast to the track.
Thanks for your feedback on mine I will address those points especially the break which I agree is dull.

Thanks for the feedback as ever, CLOWN is now finished and ready for mastering.
Tried to ensure impact throughout.

This is one of my favorite things I have heard from you. Really nice sound design, and several catchy elements to give it a full sound.

^ I'll agree with said sentiment, I have no real crits but enjoyed it and it sounded like you had a lot of fun.
