Feedback posted on your soundclouds.

Only got feedback from 1 person, thus repost.
Also, much better mixdown imo.

Sum Gud Tunes Here I Got To Say. But That Teknian Guy Is A Real Nub To Be Honest Soz Big Ups Tho

@atticuh
Yeah That Piano Is Really Good Love It Mate, But I Tink When The Bass Drops and The Drumpattern Comes In It Can Get Alittle Too Fast, I Think You Should Use That Piano On The Drop Aswell Mate. Keep It Up!

@Ascian
Thanks a lot man. Appreciate the kind words!

@ETF
Big ups mate. As you probably saw, you got a follow from me. Lovin your style and lookin forward to hearing more

@Bola
Thank you. I appreciate the input, but I think I like the way the mix sits as far as the bassline and reverb amounts...I've got a lot in already and I don't wanna over saturate the track with mid range. However I will probably bring the main mixdown gain a few dBs lower. Thanks again!

@Bud
You've anticipated my moves very nicely Thats the plan. Thanks for the positive feedback


Quick re-up on the new page for anyone else's thoughts

@deafblindmusic thank you for the input, i almost agree with everything you said. I was stumbled a bit on the structuring
@budspencertron thank you for the input, going to definitely try out some of the things you suggested. I am confused about what you meant by vocoder phrases though

@Malleus
I like the dropping FX sound you have there. I'm not a huge fan of the lead synth but the sub is nice. The vocal sample goes really well with the tune overall. I think the drums are ok but like you said the kick needs layering. I don't really like the shakers all that much, not the pattern of them, just the sound. IMO this would sound better with a less rough sounding shaker and more of jingly kind of sound. But as usual top notch production value dude.

@Bola
brilliant intro man. I was instantly drawn in. I've always liked ambient style tracks.
Very chilled out. I don't like the triangle sound very much it seems a little distracting from the song. All the pads are great. the drums have a very nice swing. I do think its a little long but the change ups are keen. I like

@BudSpencertron
Your intro was awesome dude. I think you need to do something with the low mids mix wise. it seems a little muddled. I'd have liked it to be crispier. I don't know if there is some kind of reverb going on but it makes the whole song seem a little too clouded. The snare is very thick. It sounds layered. I like.
The staggered wobble was cool in the beginning but I was a little tired of it and expecting it to stop after the second drop. Still your track sounds the coolest to me so far. Nice ideas overall.

@atticuh
I really don't like the space where the piano sits. it sounds super crowded. I like the idea of it and the minor chords are a nice touch. as an intro it is great. kinda long. but still pretty cool. If you put the piano in the drop and sample a loop of it into the song, bring the drums up, shorten the intro, I think this would be an amazing song.

Alas my internet and soundcloud are being raging tnuc bitches. so whenever it decides to upload I'll post my WIP.
There are a lot of really good tunes going on as of late, I love to see all the different styles of production and creativity. It inspires me to make better music. Keep up the creativity dudes

atticuh- all i have to say is ...... your a high persons worst nightmare hahaha, that tripped me out hard man. but seriously its got a very wicked phsycodelic feel man. big ups, just work on ur frequencies so they arnt fighting for space as much !
Malleus- That intro was perfect, the spaces after the bass just dont sound like the rest of the song tho :/ but other thenn that , that shit is wicked bro!
Bola - intro intro intro intro ! i couldnt press stop after that fuckin intro man ! and im a huge fan of the ambient tracks, HUGE, so this track to me should just be completely handled delicately and im sure if u take your time it will come out magnificent !

And yeah, im back with yet ANOTHER WIP in the past 4 days? hahaa, hard at work never the less, but here is a wip i got going, made all the basses in massive, the song was done in albeton 8 with fl10 rewire for some fx. check it out guys !

@benjoneslikewhoa thanks for feedback; do you have some suggestions for a wobble change more melody or more like different sounds or groove overall? yeah did some chorus maybe it makes it to muddy overall.

@bola haha sorry for being unclear and bad spelling but i am a bad speller in my motherlanguage german so its exponential in english; what i meant was like taking some acapella and find a fitting sentence or phrace and run it through a vocoder to add something to the atmosphere
this song would be awesome without the vocal but its perfect with it haha so thats what i wanted to say

@malleus haha

@Atticuh I like IT still sounds like though that it could be raised the levels a little more
@Malleus ahahahha very unique sound sounds great!
@Specimen Yarp
@bud spencertron I like the songs in your sig!

Heres a new dub im working on almost done

Soundcloud

@wizardd : Jungle Dubbin : That bass is stompppppppppppppppping on everything mix-wise (I like the actual sound though, it just needs taming). Like the bongo's, you might want to work on some pattern variation though, introduce a slightly more naturalistic feel playing with velocity etc. I'd like more variation on the bassline too.

atticuh: I love the piano, but I think the drop needs work, try to get the drums clearer and louder in the mix, other than that I am liking it so far.
Malleus: Loving this! That bass synth is awesome, great job! Can't say anything bad about it!
Specimen-Yarp: I like this, but mabye tone down the distortion a bit, the drop and notes are solid, just some of the sounds need a bit of tuning. Love the drums.
wizardd: Love this, well put together, and the sounds all fit together nicely! Good job!


Here is my track, I went for a Drumstep feel to it, let me know what you think of the sounds and the general feel, I'd love some feedback, thanks! (THis is my 3rd track while using Logic, so I am still learning around it)

@noizestorm :

Like this track from end to end. Great melodics, drops, perc is nice and frantic. Bassline great, plenty of variation on the bits that matter. Once it's mixed/mastered you are done.

@Budspencertron
No, The sounds are Great!! just the fact that it starts to go, and then stops, then starts, stops, starts, stops. you should just have it continue without stopping.

@Specimen-Yarp
I do not like the intro synth. Your mix is waaaay to loud. almost clipping. and the synth is very edgy. The melody is amazing though and I really like the drums. I mean I REALLY like the drums in this track. I had to listen to the drop section a few times. If you mix this down and compress it a bit more it would be awesome. there is a serious head nodding feel to this. I'm not the best at giving mixing advice because I'm not the best at mixing. But this track is nice. I really like it man.

@Wizardd
Love the bongos. Kinda reminds me of chrono trigger when you go back in time to the prehistoric days. Anyway like deaf said your bass is Smashing the rest of the track. Think of your song as a Japan and the Bass is Godzilla destroying Japan (but not in the cool movie epic way) you need to mix it better. I don't like the second drop. that sound was just irritating to me but I guess thats personal preference. It's a Good track with a lot of potential, you just need to mesh it together better, ad some change ups to the drums and fix that Bass.

@Noisestorm
I personally HATE drumstep. It is too uptempo for me. Just drum wise I guess. But I really liked this. Especially the random vocal samples tossed in. The Synths are great. Not tooo Brostepy and the drops are well timed. Nice work.

Ok Finally after fighting to death with soundcloud, here is my new WIP. I didn't spend a lot of time on the mix, more so the overall idea and structure of the song. although I did a little mixing just to make it listenable. I'm more interested in your thoughts on the feel of the song, it's a little different then my usual style.

Thanks

@Noisestorm I Liked it good job, very variated overall really solid track!
@benjoneslikewhoah dude thats pretty cool i love the middle part how it breaks down so trippy and mental ahahhaha nice drop too!

Yeah I just gotta go re record the bassline for jungle dubbin the bass was way too high as you guys pointed out LOL I noticed that before i even made it but i still recorded it cause i was eager to use my akai mpk mini ahahahha fun stuff

I have an m-audio axiom 25 but its to big to really travel with and my drum pads are not working any more. :/

House beat I'm trying. Never done house, was bored at 2AM with the Octatrack in bed ...

@Budspencertron
i agree with the idea, just keep the flow going man. no stops needed, keep the whole movement of the head bobbing, thats what i always try to do, i love when people groove out to my shit man !
@Wizardd

@Noisestorm Drumstep <3 , the synths were heavinly and the drops kept me sucked in. good job mate.|

Heres a little experimental drop im working on check it out, feedback is awesome
its more on the ambient side. |

@GV1 SUUUUPPER chill man i dig it!!
@Specimen Yarp, I like the basses you make hahaha really chill

Well this is a remix of specimen yarps song extinctors It is basically done

Soundcloud

Let me know what you think? it sounds fine to me on a sound system (aka my cars subs LOL)

@Ascian -enjoy the samples , like the over all tune. could push that bass a little more but very good work on the mixdown.

@atticuh amazing piano. piano need to be in the drop. slow that bit all down. then it will come together

@Malleus love that wobble sound. very nice groove to it. nice change ups.

@BenJonesLikeWhoa- you have alot going on in the intro nice. The bit at 00:14 is a little rough with the "ufo" sound i like the over all space feeling. everything sounds reall nice just smooth out things.

@Specimen-Yarp- nice machine sounds. needs a little more to that drum track other than that really nice work.

@wizardd very good man the "humanoid" is a bit much imo. maybe its just me but the snare is a little quite.



I did a bit of work to the previous WIP fine tuned a few things, still a little sketchy in some spots. but all in all improved.

Here is another my friend and i are working on.
