Maybe you could soften out your sounds? Make them a little more touchy when it's slow and really spark it up when it drops. Other than that, it's good.

Thanks for naming the genre 3 months after i uploaded it, was really wondering that one. Was sitting here just really thinking about the genre it was killing me but now you have relieved me of those thoughts, i now know. Its minimal chill out. Thank you sir, for your 17 character comment that clears everything up for me. I can now go on with my life without the crushing burden of what genre this is. Thank you good man, forever in your debt.
regards,
Xyilent

Cool beat! I like your use of synths to create that classic Xyilent feeling. I did have a sensation that the drums were a hair too loud when placed against the other instruments. But dang, your song structure has come so far in such a short time. Great work, listened all the way through! You're becoming more and more unique with every new track :)

Has a nice laid back chill feel X...I think the side chaining gives it a kind of rhythmic flow that works well (I don`t use side chaining much myself) Maybe there is a happy medium if were pulled back just a little.... It gives the synth brass in the middle bit a nice kind of pumping brass vibe although I`m not crazy about synth brass myself...like the higher keys...does have a bit of an R&B vibe so strikes some nice ground between chill & R&B....sounds good over my way.....Ed

Hey Ed, yeah thats what i was thinking the sidechain gives some flow, some momentum but its my first time using it in this type of song so ill learn from this and progress in the next :)

"sounds good over my way"

Good, Good!
Thanks for the feedback Ed.
Always Appreciated bud :)

Good job Xyilent!
I like the good taste on this one
best part for me is the chorus
yes it'd be interesting to hear a soft vocal...
too much side chain for me, sometimes it distract a bit but its only my opinion
congrats

Well done song. Has a Little R & B feel to it along with your side chaining. Not much to say except outstanding as usual.

yeah im moving into a kind of hip-hop/r&b style lately. would be cool to have a rapper on that part at 2:11 actually.

"with your side chaining"

i may have went nuts with the sidechaining i dont know lol, i got some new sidechaining software and its awesome so i might have over done it, but it sounds cool so oh well haha

thanks for the feedback buddy :)

Very nice work Xylient! The synths mixed with the melodies you created, were ear heaven. I loved every part of this song. There is absolutely nothing I would change. I would however, like to hear how this would sound with some female vocals on this. Soft vocals, nothing too harsh nor too long, but just enough to capture the sounds even more.

Thanks for sharing, adding this to my favs and downloads!
XyIlent
XyIlent replied 10th May 2016 - 10 years ago
Me and you both buddy haha i think a soft female voc could be awesome with this but its difficult finding the right vocal with the right lyrics.

thanks for the comment man :)

Description : Technology is a great thing. But I'm glad to know that if it ever fails ... or simply isn't there ... I can always play my guitar or drums, or just sing. In any case, the power didn't go out during this production ... so it's electric. And eclectic.
