Description : After my dad passing away 5 weeks ago I had a tough time getting back into music as the inspiration was completely gone. But music is a medicine and therefore started up again and found new inspiration from music that I heard on the radio and in here. This is a trancy kind of track which can be improved a lot. The question is where should I start changing. Especially for the mixing of the track. Let me know in a comment so I can better it and learn in the process.

(Something I wrote to this beat)

.love ones - pass away
.they motivate - tracks today
.live on - thru the beat
.new life - so to speak
.going deep - 4 & goal
.hail mary - bless ya soul
.treasure trove - bars glowin'

I know these tunes aren't made for rap vocals, but I just can't help it, too good to pass on. Sorry for your loss, Great beat man.

Thank you! I think it might fit very well to this track. I already have a version with vocals in it (collab with Maddie). It might be good to use your vocals. If you like I can send the one with the vocals to you so you can add your flavour. Just PM me!

Sorry for the loss of your father mudhoen!!!

This track is greatly mixed but I have to agree with jesus about to put some piano as a main melody maker...kinda peak of the song...

Handshake, Danke

Hey Danke,

Thanks. He listened to the track we made together and cried. Was a very nice moment of gratitude but also of sadness. But he liked it very much. Piano music I love but find it hard to make it sound good as it often sounds to synthy if you know what I mean. But will learn that in the future.

In all honesty. It's too tame, sort to speak. Throw in a piano and some strings to bring the life in it. At least that's what I hear. Great quality though mate.

Thanks for your feedback. I have a struggle making synthpiano music sound good as it mostly lacks the human touch. Definetly something to learn for me in the future.

Sorry to hear of your loss Mud.
I can empathise as I've lost them all over the last few years. Leaves me as the oldest male in my family now which I find a little odd.
I keep trying trance buit it has a habit of falling apart around my ears!
This sounds good to me for a comeback track.
I would go for a few louder bits here and there though.
All the best.

mudhoen replied 22nd Jun 2016 - 10 years ago
Thank you! The same is for me now as being the oldest male around in the family. It is definetly odd but thats life. Maybe there could be added somethings but wanted to keep it basic. I might change things in the future.

Sorry about your dad, must be hard. But as you said, life goes on, and making music is surely a good healer. About the track, you know trance is not really a genre I am familiar with, so I can't give good feedback. But the production is great, sounds nice and clean, and it is not boring, some nice changes all along to keep it interesting.

Hey matey

Long time, saw this one in featured so had to come check it out, as you know my fav genre to do is trance, even though have none on site at moment, personally I wouldn't change anything in this track to be honest, only thing maybe and I say maybe is bring in another synth in spots, but like I said don't think you need to do more, it kept me glued to the track all the way through and did have that nice trance fix feel...PS yep I know where you are coming from when losing your father same happened to me back in 2013 after not knowing he was sick, found out about 2 weeks before he past so came as a shock, Yes I struggled to get the head around doing music, but when I did it was a big help in getting out the hurt and sadness, as the saying goes in some way music is a healer (helps anyways) Peace man...mosaic...fav...

Hey Mosaic. Thank you for your comment. i know you are a talented trance producer and hate to see you not posted trance in here anymore. I know the reason and fully understand it but you were a prodcuer i could learn from a lot. I am glad you liek the track. That means im on the good way to learn to make tracks like these. My condoleances for your loss eventhough it is some time ago. It will be a part in our life that always will be there. Music definetly helps out a lot.

Mudhoen, your name rings a bell.. I'm loving that line that kicks in at 1:00... at 1:30 I would have done a small break down, perhaps a minuscule silence before the hats kick in.. 2:45 very painful, as in it feels like the expression of pain in a beautiful way.. It's rare to hear emotion in electronic music and you good sir have nailed it.. My condolences brother.

Thank you very much for your detailed comment and the condolences. Being back in music really makes it all better to chew. I will change and add a small break later on. Good idea!

Pretty epic synth sounds and atmosphere in the intro, cool!

Nice driving beat once it kicks in.

The mix sounds fine here buddy!

And I'm sorry for your loss, music truly is one of life's best therapy's. Keep it up!

Thanks Diskonnect! Put some effort to make the mix sound good. Lowered teh clap a little to make it less on the foreground. Music helps a lot!

Sorry to hear about your loss. Music is great therapy. This is awesome trance. I can feel the emotion. That's the best music. You just getting back to the vibe that you love the most and just putting out there, raw and unfettered. My Dad will turn 80 Aug 13th. I am planning to surprise him by going to see him in NY this year from Ottawa and he doesn't know I am coming. I know that Time is working against us at this point. I am here for you mate ! great work

Many thanks Crucethus. Music definetly helps me a lot now. I tried to put in some emotion without overdoing it. Although the heavy saw synth might be a bit much I found it good for bringing over the emotion if you know what I mean :p

Hey Voltage, music is a great way of healing. Hope it helps you along this tuff road.

The song sound very good and professional....yes the clap might be a little too loud...but it´s a minor issue in my ears.

Keep up the light!

Sorry to hear about your Dad. Music is a great thing, in so many different ways it can a friend. Glad you are back in the groove.

I couldn't tell you the first thing about Trap but I "caught" myself listening to this a few times. sorry

I would guess that the saw synth is a big deal in Trance, it's out in force. Drums are pounding, which I associate club music to this type of beat. Sounds cool enough to me, especially the softer sounding synth at the end.

Description : I wanted to create something dark and romantic with an RnB and retro wave touch. This song has a retro futurism feel to it. I was inspired by The Weeknd when I was writing this song, especially his first mixtape, House Of Balloons, hence the deep roamntic analogies in the songwriting. I have sung this song myself and produced it too. No AI used here. This is an old song.
