Delax - Floating (chillout, mellow)

New track from me called floating. Still got to fix it up a bit. But this is pretty much it for now. A bit of feedback?

i think you have the foundation for a nice track here, but you should add more elements, it's cool as is but i dunno, it lacks something to hook the listener imo

also the snare is a bit buried in the mix i think, i'd try to make it a bit louder

and i'd suggest you put a proper link in your thread, people will be more likely to go and listen to your stuff ;)

so other people can listen more easily ^^

Nice work, some of the synth design is very nice. It does sound slightly bare at the moment, but I don't think that's a lack of elements. I think you just need to go back through and add fine detail. Subtley varying the drum pattern and adding instrumental sounds, especially to highlight the end of each phrase, makes the track sounds like it's going somewhere.

I liked it though, i'm a sucker for this kind of music (and write it myself). If you haven't already, check out akema, clubroot and soundcloud.com/solitude for some inspiration.

I really felt that one... I faded away, kind of, while listening.

Im at work atm so i've got shitty speakers, but with that in mind I agree with the above posters, a little bit more tweaking and fiddling productionwise could make it really perfect... On my speakers (at work, not at home - made in china, mid and highs only) the kick/snare sounded a bit weak, but with this kind of music its a matter of balance.

[EDIT] Listening again, at home with my own speakers and realized the value of proper equipment: its not a snare, its a clap...
