Thanks -
But does the intro / verse section match with the drop?
I keep thinking to ditch the drop synths and put something more like 'I cant get no sleep' type synth line in there? |
no i dont think they match |

My Missus hates it but I wanted that second opinion
SO,,,,
Here's the original hard dance version which I prefer in hindsight - just need to pop the vocals back in
Thanks so much Evo, such a help

I don't usually like to share tracks in this early stage of production, but I thought I'd throw it out there:
It's going to be filled with all kinds of tidbits later, but how's that basis working out? |

| I'd have to hear it more in context to see if its working out, I have an inclination the sub is not working but I could be wrong. You can try a sine layer to push more energy. |

Yeah, def needs a third layer. I accidentally had my low end turned way up on the mixer. |

Compared to others of yours it just does not really do much for me I'm afraid mate, but don't less this put you off, it may just be me and my taste, if you like it then finish it. The drums / bass seem a bit brittle to me though.
Sorry for not much input here |

the synth that comes in is taking up a lot of room in the track, i would go with some different

man, im loving that kick/toms combo, it just carries the groove - beautiful stuff man, little cheesy in places but thats ok..last break is lovely.. its mad watching a person's sound develop over time
p.s. those wide hats are badass |

Started this yesterday and haven't been able to pull away from it.
This version however got thrown a curve when I impulsively decided to add vox. It was not my intention to do so at first and I am still debating. However, I received these late last night,threw em in and instantly raised an eye brow. It does add dimension to the track however, the main verse vox seems very dull and flat whereas the melody is strong and vibrant. Was hoping for more phrasing verses but only managed 3. Still need to do a timing adjustment as I know some phrases are a little bit off.
Arrangement was deemed originally a placeholder but I am actually digging sound choices.
Composition seems weird to me...??
Any tips on this you guys could draw up?

Nice and groovy start. Break is cool. Nice vibe with the pads. Back to groovin'. Cool deep stabs. Great listen overall. Mix is really cool, although I might prefer a bit more compression and the ducking effect that comes with it. And maybe a bit more eq ing to decrease overlap in certain sounds. I feel this mix could benefit a lot from a bit more space between elements (in the spectrum, possibly also timewise). |
