Dramatic Synth - Samoi08

Description : Composed of two dramatic string piano samples in Am, a dramatic synth also in Am, three drum loops, a baseline loop, hi hat loop and a synth pluck in Am. I started off first with the two string piano samples that you can hear at the beginning of the track and thought to myself that it needed a bit more drama, so I added the synth pluck sample in Am and used delay and reverb to make it sound more like a bell ringing out. I originally thought that would be it, but then I found another dramatic synth in my sample library which was also in Am and fitted in perfectly. I then added the main drum loop and transition drum loops in the style of a commercial hip hop track.
I could not find a bass sample that went well with the track so I got my midi keyboard out and created a melody using the 3x Osc plugin.

YO FAM THIS IS SOME HOTTTTT SHIZZZZZ

sounds like it could be something
straight from tha vaults of ShadowVille
ahahahahaha straight almost 2DEEP/Sinima type
feel to it...

got tha foundations for an AWESOME track...
all tha elements you've got work perfectly
together~ tha drops on tha synths and tha
drum work are TOP NOTCH...

luvvvv them STRINGZ~
ahahaha i've got a thing for epic stringz... ;)

all i can say is that tha MIX itself could be
improved a lil' bit more... there's a lot of
muddiness around (what i think) is around
800Hz - 1.5kHz area for your stringz and
piano... of course i ain't an expert that's
just me opinion ;)

KEEP IT UP FAM IMMA FAV THIS JOINT

TIGHT WORK

Much Respect from LA

Love the ideas your showing through this track,definately dramatic. it does have its problems as Spd2 has mentioned above, no need for me mention them again as he is right on the money with his own recommendations. If you can get this fixed up and completed it would have so much potential there after, in short a very promising song you have here.

Description : I'm continuing the 'Unfiltered' Vol. 1 series, this is track 2.

Same as with track 1, i'm on the electric guitar/Squier Affinity series Stratocaster, drums and bass only in the beat, i kept percussion to a minimum to not distract from the guitar too much.

Made/recorded/performed in Reason 13.

Feedback is appreciated.

One acapella by Elven Voice, one loop by GenaMusic... So separate but something common...I decided to merge them and to leave them as clean as I could. Just added some synth pads and percussion.
