Description : It's because they're French.
I was working on mixing the kick and the bass for this. Multiband compression helps. I can't match the legends, but it's getting better, let me know any thought!

Wowzers!! this is freaking awesome!! if honestly I have never been a huge fan of electronic music, though I have sung over electronic tracks before but this is fast changing my mind.

really cool I agree with sheen, I started digging it more around 3:12

definitely needs some more mixing on the highs, I feel the track is to loud on the highs and im not getting enough dirty and crunchy lows from the synths or maybe the bass... a side chain would also help out... any other feedback feel free to DM me.

huge fan of daftpunk btw im glad someone is doing a similar style.

Cheers monsterage, and thanks for the feedback!

I'm gonna give it some time before revisiting tracks, right now I kinda want to make as much new stuff as possible. I'll take that advice on board for my next tracks though!

4-12-18 is very cool btw

Very interesting track my friend, you went for a french house-disco vibe but went modern with it instead and I appreciate that. I worked on a French Disco-House type track not too long ago, so it's a treat to see this and listen to it. I think you did a great job.

Thanks man!

I listened to your track 'music breaks us free', really cool stuff, the baseline especially.

This is a really cool track. Lots of interesting sounds and atmosphere. I also love the progression of this track. 3:12 onwards has to be my favorite part. That bass synth is something else and I love when it opens up from there into space.

Mixing wise it feels lacking in energy. Maybe some tighter sidechain on the kick and snare could help. Some brightness on the lead synths could help open it up too, so maybe some white noise and some upper harmonics?
A solid saw bass layered underneath that high plucky bass could help a lot to add some body to the low end around parts like 1:31.

Of course this all depends on what you're going for for the overall sound.
See "Daft Punk - Doin it right (k?d remix)" for my preference, though I don't think this track needs to be as extreme as it feels more like a vibe than a banger.

Awesome work, keep it up!

Thanks for the great feedback Sheen, I really appreciate it!

I like what you said about brightness. I was just boosting higher frequencies, didn't think to saturate or distort them.

Also that k?d remix is fire, cheers for bringing that to my attention!

Description : New and kinda final version of track using acapella from JakeBuzzad.
Instrumental track recorded with Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboard, MPD and various percussion then vocals and movie samples added in cuebase (all samples taken from public domain movies from the 1940s-1960s.

It should now be in a half decent stereo mix - however, I am deaf in one ear and it makes it difficult to get the cross over right so feedback / comments more than welcome.

Thanks

Most of you know that I don't take myself seriously; I experiment, I just wing it, I don't care much about standards, and I don't care if the music industry takes me seriously, I'm just having fun. This is another one of those tracks where I turn everything upside down, an absurd story in a fast techno beat.

Only 1 sample used: Explosion-sfx by cbbk (2024).

Put on your dancing shoes and enjoy!

Description : 'On My Own' is a song about a man who is living the SIGMA Male mindset/grind set! A man always alone, so alone that only God is his his companion. This is deep house music, with Arabic sounds and a sweet Western vibe. Hope you enjoy it!

Description : I continue the hybrid procedure of creating music. This is a relatively recent song of mine that after the in DAW processing it was used as a prompt with certain guiding choices to AI machine. What was produced was di novo imported into the DAW to be blended with the original recording. It ended to a long music piece which I believe can be of interest to the listener. I hope you will enjoy this listen. I think Rocking Ambient describes well the genre.
