FINISHED TRACKS FOR FEEDBACK-- APRIL 2010

Post by Sharmaji » Thu Apr 01, 2010 2:28 pm

folks--- fantastic work on the last one, almost a new page every day. keep it up!

The March thread (and every other subsequent thread) will be de-stickied; ideally that'll be the end of 'em and we won't have to lock 'em, just migrate your discussions over to the new ones.

doesnt feel like the drums cut through enough to me, in fact they feel a little quiet and lacking punch throughout. the higher sustained bass sounds like it could do with a bit of dirtying up with some distortion or something.

i quite like your snare, the funny off beat bell sort of thing sounds a bit odd at first, but when it comes in later it seems alright, maybe filter it in? not really feeling it when the bass goes realy screechy. could probably do with some more in the way of atmosphere, maybe some strings or pads.

any tips/critisicm/feedback is appreciated! has a sorta progressive feel to it. deep pads and melodies made for losing yourself in thought :P
will return the favor! thanks
ooh i like that percussion in the intro, could maybe be tuned to the rhodesy synth thing a bit better, but i like it. nice pads, and im liking the skippyness off the beat, feels like you could have done with a better kick to me, and the hihat type thing is a bit harsh. really liking this though, really cool idea. feels like it could do with a little bit of filling out here and there but its very nice. different. id quite like to do a remix of this at some point if you'd be up for it :D

intro is promising... very chilled vibes going there, the snare (the one on the 3's) seems a little... odd to me. might sound better with a bit of reverb? hmm not very keen with the sort of acid-line thing - i think its to do with the rhythm its playing, feels slighty childish to me. it stops very suddenly, and feels like it needs a bit more filling out to me, but its a promising start.

^^^^ Awesome drum line, no real criticism, just like the tune :D

Here's my latest effort. Will comment on more tunes as they come through :mrgreen:

edit: @ Gravity. Nice dark tune man, really rolls well. To be fair your production is top notch too mate. Sound really well balanced from where I'm sat. :!:

Like this very much! Also your last tune Hydraulic. Solid production on both. Are they getting a release?
Maybe bring up the snare a tiny bit? So that it is more present. Otherwise very very nice, bass, pads and the overall athmoshere of the tracks.

only thing I'd say is perhaps there should be a next element in the first drop....even if it came in later.

but thumbs up other than that

reallly nice tune man, nice choice of drums and the atmospherics remind me of gangster boogie sort of stuff

only listening on pc speakers at the mo so can't offer much feedback in terms of mixdown, but i think the snare needs to be brought out a tiny bit more

really like the introduction of the synth in the second drop aswell

this is a big tune mate, really feeling that drop, sort of reminds me of a cross between kryptic minds and some n-type/youngsta productions. nice and dark but also got a deep roller vibe

i think some of your midrange synths are a tiny bit too loud and you should bring your bass out more so the two sit a bit tighter with each other

really like that synth you have in the intro, and the breaks are cut up nicely

i think that you could reintroduce that synth you have in the intro maybe 8 bars after the drop just to spice things up a bit

the drum pattern is very nice tho, how they are all very stuttery until the end of the bar. and i think that synth in the second drop is sick

very joker-esque tune

i think its lacking hi-frequency sounds

think the shakers could be brought out a bit more and maybe you can introduce that same square synth but an octave higher and slightly quieter about 8 bars after the drop

but those beepy digital things after the second drop are very nice

i think the first drop needs to have just as much variety as you have done to the second drop

could i get some more feedback on this tune please?

Soundcloud

i was thinking about sending it out but after giving it another listen just now, i think it needs a little bit of tidying up as some parts are a bit messy

what do you guys think?

The low mids on something are kind of muddying it up a little, and that snare is a tiny little it too loud compared to the rest of the track... but don't take my word for it, I've been listening to tracks all day so my ears may be skewed a little by now, heh.

Really nice vibe tho, like the progression.
