Ok I will try that out, I figured the sub underneath would be enough low end, but ill try bringing the mids down an octave\
@immerse, really like it. its mixed well and the vocal works really good
@rayman, this is a sick as beat. I wouldnt change a thing

IDK, to me it seems it's sitting nice in the mix, then again i tend to make my kicks too loud at times
Love Rayman's and Kidshuffle's tunes also (those hats!)
something i'm working on atm, just a rough draft really,I'm not sure about all the lead synth switches in the last 16

nah, pitch the SUB down an octave, if you tune down the mids, it won't give you any weight plus they sound alright as they are

Ooooooh Johney boy!!!! I LOVE THAT TUNE. add some brass in there in a higher octave in between wobbles in kind of a rusko esque way would sound straight wonkey! im really liking it man! and yah i dont like the lead switch either, the rolling congas at the end are tight, turn em up a little and maybe eq them to have a little more "smack". and maybe layer a rising synth with your white noise to make it a little cooler. keep me posted on the status of this tune i really like it.
as for my tune im working on a few changes in atmospheres in the beginning and the kick, should be done soon if i squeeze it out before work
edit: johney that is one of those tunes where there is so much groove, you dont really need to make many changes besides subtle ones. like you did with the synth in the middle and the congas. just build on what you have while maintaining the groove and thatll be a ch00on. maybe add a break or two to make it a bit longer. or throw in some bars without the sub then bring it back in

Thank you! glad you are feeling it,
As for it being too short, yeah, i haven't started on the second section yet I like the idea with the synth riser i'll try and come up with something, most of the time it sounds like crap though so i go with plain white noise instead haha
Thanks for the feedback mate!

See I thought maybe i was getting that wrong bc the mids wouldve disappeared...
ill try the sub, but i though I had it in the right octave, it does rise to the next octave for a few notes throughout the tune tho

Well it has virtually zero weight now. Just pitch it down an octave, same notes, but an octave lower and it'll sound better
ok heres the update, added some atmospheres with a stretched vocal. few other little things and fixed the sub i think it sounds a lot nicer now, and the added headroom from reducing the high's let me boost it more for more sub

@climax, prime sub frequencies are about 35-55hz. as you get higher than that it starts becoming more heard and less felt

johney i like those congas, id use them more throughout the tune
and something else to fill the space, unless thats what you were going for, more open, just seems like there is a lot of room to add if you wanted to
like immerse said maybe brass or something

Hey ninjas, im really excited about the most recent tune ive been working on. It's a VIP of my track Never to Return. I'm so happy with how the VIP is turning out I decided to give out the original mastered tune as a free 320k on my soundcloud (check it out). I really need your help on this one, tear this apart for me please!
PS: really into that track electric nice one! love the second drop, i recommend you spent a good amount of time cleaning it up and shop it around to some labels, or dj's
