This is just a rough draft of my song I still have to fix it up a little but I was just looking for feedback on what is there so far as this is the bulk of what is going to be in there. Also, in case it sounds familiar, the beginning was influenced by Skrillex's Scary Monsters (almost copied :? ) but hey, it's one of my favorite songs so I wanted to follow a winning model.

really nice track mate, it doesn't remind of Skrillex at all (except for the vocal cut bits), it definitely has its own feel mate so don't worry! however I think you should have that arpeggio that starts at 1:03 playing throughout that whole drop part and maybe have it get louder as you change to the next progression? also you might want to add some hats, more vocal parts, or something, some of the mix seems somewhat empty. But overall, really solid track, keep it up!

if you have a bit of time could you possibly take a look at my rough draft of a song?

fuzz_2k, I've never used a frequency analyzer, can you recommend any good ones for download?

paradigm001 I agree with fuzz about the murkiness of the track but IMO that adds to the actual feel of the track, I mean you were going for dark weren't you :D I like the especially like the melody and the wobbles aren't too shabby, overall the track is really solid!

if you guys have anytime can you critique or comment on my WIP?

Thanks Riich I was thinking some parts seemed empty I did not even think to add more vocal bit (though I will now try to put more) and I will put in hi hats when I can get my sampling down better, but what was with the other half of your post sorry it confused me?

For some reason they were addressing me. This song sounds better then your other one. I would say just work on your bass sound with some eq and add some more elements and you will have a personal winner.

Really liking the intro man! Overall, I think this track isn't exactly my style, but it sounds well put together. I gave it a full listen, and the only thing I would attempt is to smoothen out the main synth, it's a tad too harsh for me. Overall, nice track though man, keep it up. :)

i hear the scary monsters influence in the melody of the intro argeggio mostly , there is this on sound in there that sounds like someone swallowing in the back of there throat it happends at 1.22 . it needs to go. also the drums are boring and you can barely hear them , they need to be layered , compressed , eq'd and it could prolly use a hi hat or two. the intro was really good and some of your sounds are dope , gotta bring it all together. thanks for checking my stuff out ! , keep building!
