nice one! made a few tracks in this type of progressive myself too. everything is just fine, only the beat it`s really boring. with a little percussion in the background and some variation with kick, snare, hat combo would be a good refreshing track! Cheers! :)

Thanks Analog! I think you're right when you say the beat is a bit boring. I'm working on a better version of this, so hopefully it will sound better when I'm done. Thanks for the tips and glad you enjoyed it. Take care!

Thanks man! I'm happy you enjoyed this little piece. I think I know what song you're talking about. Is it "Scream N Shout by Britney Spears and Will I am"? That song's melody does sound very similar to my song.

I'll check out your new song when I get a chance. As always thanks for stopping and take care!

Lovely Track! And i second that Larry! Better mix will take this track to a whole new level... Also I just think a lot could've been done in the rhythm part in terms of clap samples or -interesting Hi-hats... Your bass-line is kick-ass and i feel the rhythm is somewhere not doing justice to it... The lead came as a good surprise at 4:20.. Nice variation that was... and loved the ending too. That Nexus piano sample needed little processing though.. but overall.. A Wonderful track!

Looking forward to hear some more interesting music from you.

Thanks Ether! You made a great point about making the rhythm parts more dynamic. Adding more dynamics to the drums will probably boost this track to a higher level. Right now, I think I only used three hihat samples and a basic clap rhythm, so these tips are making me think.

I'm happy you enjoyed this track, and I'm looking forward to hearing from you some more in the future, till then take care and thanks for the kind words!

Simple but effective. I love the sounds you've used. It's kind of Deadmau5 vs Jimmy van m. A lot of tracks i play have me turning the volume down but this one says "crank me up" Absolutely love it and i'm going to download it so i can hear it again.
Cheers for that!

I can hear what you're saying with that Jimmy van and deadmau5 style. Most of my progressive house tracks usually combines artist styles, such as the ones you're pointing out, and turns it into it's own style. So good ear on that one!

Thanks for taking the time to review and comment, happy you enjoyed this one!

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.

Description : My third rap song. Still not entirely sure how I got here, but I'm having fun with it. This time, I brought along my alter ego, Cool Grandpa. He's got more swagger than I do and helps bring a little street cred (although not much) to the operation.

I did update the vocal mix based on feedback and I think that was a good call by gixxie. Vox is stronger now.
