I like the odd exotic local type of synths you're using. After the break when you drop back in, I think that would be a perfect time to keep listeners intrigued with your sound in terms of depth. Of course that's subjective, but maybe between the drums and other sounds there could possibly be a bit more variation on how you deliver your sound. Still nice tune. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for the taking the time to listen and thanks for the suggestions, I definitely think the percussion could use some variation. Any suggestions or advice for variation on how I deliver sounds? (Only been producing a year so anything is helpful)

I just find I have a hard time evolving an idea and remaining coherent.

I'm reluctant to really put my input in on suggestions on how you change the sound because while it would give you an idea which may be helpful, it would simply be me stating what I personally would like to hear. This may seem odd, but that would be unfair to you in my eyes. One major thing when it comes to electronic productions in particular, is the manipulation of the sound. For example. On this track you have, at 3:10 you let the kick be the main focus. Simple, but effective. The listeners hear that change and I for one naturally wonder what you're possibly going to transition into. Will you switch things up, or revert into the melody beforehand. Experiment with your sounds, and see what you're comfortable with. See what you like and don't like, then expand on both what you like and don't like. I don't produce the music I do, I write the lyrics. But I do the same thing when I rap. You've got potential and you definitely have talent, so keep building.

Thank you for your honesty, I know exactly what you're saying. I appreciate your insights, which are much more helpful than telling me to specifically do one thing or another. Thanks for the listen its much appreciated.
