If you have time take a listen and give Eighteen some feedback.
Henry and Crucethus are giving great advice. That transition at 1:02 is awesome. The music fits the vocals really well. The effects you have, especially in the outro, sound great. I like that you didn't overuse them. I'm excited to hear the final version.
Thank you very much :)
Yesterday I heared 3 of your songs and the melodies that you sing are fenominal!
I cant reply to them so I am happy that I had a chance to tell u that! :)
I like this one, it´s quirky and fun has some eighties sensibilities. If you could inch the vox slightly down in the mix, and lower the reverb also a little bit as it drowns out the rest of the instruments. Bass is fine, need just a bit of warmth in the middle. It might also be the overdriven chiptune sounds that are also causing it all to sound clustered. I completely agree with henry as he is spot on with his original synopsis. This is a good tune worth the time it will take to get it perfect. I do really like it.

Thanks for the feedback! :)
I have changed this song a lot of times xD
I am not sure if I can do a better job then what I have right now to be honest, the project has a loooot of tracks, different sounds and stuff, It was kinda hard to keep all of them 100% hearable.
As far as my current skills can bring me, I think this is the max :)
Very nice idea, fantastic atmosphere created, the voice seems to come directly from the 80s, and more precisely from Patsy Kensit from Eight Wonder!
Technically, however, there are several things to fix. First of all the eq of the volumes, the voice is too dominant and, as already written, too full of reverb. Despite using headphones of excellent quality such the I-phone ones, I do not hear the bass (the low frequencies generally), the drums are too weak. Maybe you could opt to saturate them if you don't want them to be too prominent.
The general mix mastering should be reviewed, as your track is, however, has that vintage flavor that is definitely a positive aspect.
I have not selected as a favorite just for the audio quality, but I believe you can do your best to improve it.
Judging from this track, your album promises great things. I'd like to listen to it!
Thank you for your feedback,
I too heard somethings that were not as they should be,
but in the past few listened to it a loooooot of times, and
I became a bit ''deaf'' to Eqs and basically everything.
I have changed a lot so it sounds more how it should be in my opinion.
I like it. I think there is a little too much reverb on the vocal. or if you want reverb really thick, you can duck the reverb to clear up the vocal and keep the lush long verbs. Very cool and original. The ending is tied up nicely.
Description : Feel free to check out the video on YT as well (Alan McLaren Project - Upside Down) of this 6min journey from electronic to rock with some psychedelic moments...
This is my latest, but also one of my earliest tracks.... any feedback is more than welcome, thanks :)
Description : A demo of one of my current projects. The chorus vocal sounds like "Aaaaraashe" to me. The song is in C# minor with a nod to C# pythagorean on the chorus. The beat on the verse was inspired by the Peter Gabriel song Intruder.
Description : This is one of my earliest productions that I did at the start of my recording career. I did not have a keyboard at the time I made this song, so I improvised and used my sister's iPad and a 5 dollar GarageBand application instead, and plugged the headset jack into into my PT6 rig and did my best to turn each individual track (which were mono and there were about 25 tracks or so) into a stereo image. Then recorded vocals over it. My computer was so old and slow that I had to mix my music and then BOUNCE it to a new session - four times. My computer (which had 512 MB RAM and an 80 GB hard drive) couldn't handle more than 8 tracks at a time or it'd stop working because the processor couldn't handle it. Took me FOREVER to do. But I got it done. Had a lot of fun doing it too, even if it isn't my "best" work. I'm still happy with it, considering I didn't have many tools to choose from at the time.
Description : Long time lurker first time poster, pretty new to production n stuff, this is my first track in Ableton Live.
was going for a darkwave/synthwave sound, reminiscent of Justice, Carpenter Brut, Perturbator, ect.
Looking for some feed back, constructive criticisms or even just your thoughts if you liked it or not. This is just a rough cut on this current WIP, just the bones of it if you will.. If you have some cool title suggestions, would love to hear those too.
Thanks for listening.

Description : Far out mid-tempo fat beat deep chillout grooves with Eastern/Arabic and slightly menacing vibes, huge delayed synth bass and a great palette of psychedelic layered and intricate sounds (mostly synths) and a stirring, epic feel. Even has guitar solo section reminiscent of some 80s power rock which is then followed by a brief synth harp solo. I began making it straight after staying round the flat of the flute player from the legendary Ozric Tentacles - easily the greatest ever space rock band. I made this in about 2001 and still think it might be my best track (and it's nice and short, for a change). My production skills were much weaker in those days (no EQ, compression or mastering used here) but, somehow, this one turned out pretty much just right. Feel free to disagree. Now sit back and get ready to trip extremely far out. If you manage to return, let me know how that trip was...
Description : Got some spare time finally...just started on some random ideas basically (lets say kygo meets alan walker). A blend of dubstep,edm,downbeat,tropical etc.
It's still a work in progress, so i would appreciate your honest inputs. Thanks to all those whose loops I have used in here, sorry I don't have time to search them out.
Edit-added some more filthy sounds from my previous tracks and gave it some ending. Advice will be helpful.
Cheers!

Sorry.
Why don't you give me the vocals, so i can remix this?
Private mail send.
~Eighteen
Anyway, you didn't still get the right eq/comp/mix/mast.
At the moment, i can't because of my hand injure, but i would like to make my remix of this, one day.
yeah I always have trouble with mixing a song if I have a lot of tracks in one project, specially this track the gets louder and louder near the end.
One day I will get it I am sure :)
Tnx for the feedback!
Cheers!
