Any feedback would be lovely, and hay if you wanna go through and listen to all my tracks feel free nah just kidding..... but seriously

ps. I couldn't get the stupid soundcloud player thing to go in, sorry

Thank you!!! you guys are totally worth it.

DEMZ - "Insomnia"

pluses:
+pads with delay in the beginning make for a nice intro
+beat comes in at a great point, giving it a unique flow right from the get
+tweaking that bell sounding lead gives it a super dreamy feel
+nice 'overthere' snare with delay
+(3:12) splendid panning/break
+using the beat repeater on the delay into the last drop is super sweet

advice:
-intro is well worked but could be a little shorter to reduce drag, unless you're trying to trance people out before the drop (which is effective too.. personally at the club im ready to start jumping around tho)
-first drop needs a little more definition, feels like it's still building
-needs a little more variation between the drops so it's not more of the same.. would make people go 'woah'
-bass needs a little more definition, feels all physical and non harmonic
-would love to hear the occasional double-timing of that bell lead, kinda like what the delay achieves but a little stronger

overall:
=mm, you have a yummy little dream track on your hands, so far... with a stronger bass and a few surprises i could spend all night swaying with the crowd to this one

much love

**will post more reviews of your work once i have the time/energy, trying to spread myself out while i still have some steam..**

Legendary man, thanks for the feedback

LTUK wrote:Thierry, its sounding good - like the way your kicks have real "punch." I just kind of think you need an extra melody somewhere along the ways. Like the fat synth a lot though.

TheSnifit - really not my type of music so I don't know what your going for with the track. I do like the growly bass though- but i would say that your percussion is a little quiet for my liking.

This is my effort

Hmmm, nice sounds, like that weird harpsichord sounding thing, but I think ur bassline is out of tune? It works when it's on it's own, but not with those chords (I think it's just one note that's off) Nice production on the drums though, sounding lovely

Again, the drums sound great, nice choice of sounds. When the midrange basses switch up and the end of the bars about halfway through it sounds cool, and when everything drops out towards the end it sounds lush! The whole track should be based around that ending if u ask me

Big evil bass drone. Nice. Everything's coming through nicely too, nice mix Only complaint would be that it sounds a bit too rigid. Maybe try pushing your snare back a touch, or turning up the swing?

Cool squelchy panned bass man! It overpowers the mix slightly though.
thanks brothers!
