I think this track deserves a comment, xNima.

It sounds different. That's a very good thing. Has good intensity and energy. I like the way it transitions from the relatively quiet first section to the main section.

I do think the chord sequence gets repetitive, though, which is what I think you suggested in your description. I didn't check out the loop you mentioned, so am not sure if the chord sequence was determined by that loop. If there's only one loop to work with, that can be very limiting. At least, that's my experience.

I really prefer tracks that have a structure of some sort. Doesn't have to be V, V, Ch, V, Br, Ch or variations of that, but something more than just a repetition the same chord sequence from beginning to end.

I guess there are genres of music now that work fine (funk doesn't have lot of variation usually - can even be just one chord!), but I favour a structure that introduces distinct sections that perform different roles in the track. Of course, that's a lot harder to do as a producer. Generally, it takes more musical knowledge and definitely takes more work in creating a track that hangs together and that handles the transitions well.

I'm very guilty of not working to ensure variation and develop good structure in my tracks, which is why 99% of them never get completed and 99.99% never get posted here or anyplace else.

Your track was really good. Not the "same-old, same-old". I'd encourage you to extend your production efforts to building a more varied structure in your tracks.

I, for one, would really like to hear what you can do.

Dear Eric,

Thank you very much for your kind words!

You are very right, looking back at this I totally agree that I made this song turn out way too repetitive. I am not sure if you have heard the full version on my SoundCloud account too, but even that version gets boring listening to very quick.

Notice that I tried to slightly vary the progression throughout the main part as it switches from minor to major and back, plus adding that admittedly kinda weird last bar of the main part.

In my final version I added a break, followed by something like a bass solo which uses a different chord progression, though. That was my attempt to get some kind of structure into the project. Still, I agree that the entire song could use some more variation.

I also agree with you that it's probably not that simple to create music that's versatile and still works as one unit.

Nevertheless, I am grateful for your praise and I appreciate your opinion on my music.

I am definitely going to listen to some of your creations too.

Lia

Description : Basically, this track was made back in the day when I was a HUGE Electro House (Especially, Big Room) fan. I was inspired by the track LRAD by Knife Party but I ended up with this piece of poopie. I'm not even trying to produce EDM anymore but I just wanted to share this since I spent a lot of time on this. Positive/Negative comments are all welcome! Thanks!

Description : A long time goal of ours was to produce an Electroswing song. Mercury Retrograde means that your day is actually spoiled with problems (If you believe in Astrology) due to the fact that Mercury seems to rotate in a different direction. Thank you 8keey,1Eig8ty and Baby Vice Beats for the loops. And now: Please Start to swing :-)

Description : Hey guys! Here's my remix for Skwish Fish's competition. I try to keep to the original as much as I can. This will probably be my last track in a while. I will be moving for college, and I know I'll be very busy. I did this more for fun than competitively. Good luck to any/all participators. Shout out to Skwish Fish himself for the original.

I tried to make the track as CLEAN and professional as possible.
Fruity Reverb for the Arps
Fruity EQ 2 with automated bandwidth
Vital (Most sounds I templated from presets)
In scale of D Minor
Gross Beat for that "pumping" sound effect
Sampled laser gun shot for that subtle growl
sampled knocking sfx for the signature cyberpunk bass roll
