Description : PLEASE REVIEW!
This was all based around the sound of the piano, I loved how it sounded.

I would love all the criticism I can get, this is the one track I'd like to improve on.
PLEASE REVIEW!

Im not too great with mastering my tracks really myself but if i had to make a suggestion it would be the same one you keep hearing, which is to make the kick stand out a bit. A little less reverb on the piano too once it kicks in. Other than that this is a fantastic track, i thought it was overall fairly excellent. You get a 2 thumbs up from me.

Peace Love Jesus!

hey man i like the intro on this its koo, but i think you should make the kick stand out and i think it would improve the sound of beat, but the beat is great man

Great intro! loved how the piano just played around givin you a loose sound,then the build up was perfect. Maybe I would beef up the base in your kicks to give it more impact when you come out of that build-up after the intro. but other than that its great!

Thanks! I've been having a hard time learning to master my tracks, especially when it comes to bass and snare hits. Seems they always overpower everything or are drowned out. Thanks for the review.

Hiya bro.... nice vibe you got happening here... im the same fella i love piano's.

On the production side... i like what you have done so far, but i would maybe say lower the volume of the reverb on the piano, and also put an eq cut at about the 120-200hz sorta mark (And about 500hz on the reverb if you can) to clean it up.
also if you can, i would probly say try to put a side chain compressor on almost everything that isnt drums and have it being triggered by the snare, d&b artists "The Brookes Brothers" use it all the time and it works wonders in making the track come alive.
Also on the bass side i would say make another copy of it, cut everything below about 350-500hz on one and change the other for a sine wave cutting everything above 600hz on it.

it sounds like you may have already done this but the sub wave seems a little detached from the high bass.

Hope you dont take offence to the advise, cause if i didnt like your work i wouldnt have even commented at all.

Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing bro :)

Description : 180 BPM ambient drum n cell. Melodic electric cello playing over dnb drums (all fast except for one 30 sec section). Drums are all manipulated loops. No acoustic drums so also no cymbals, just for a change. Various synths, plus some interesting sample-based sitar parts in the second half. A fun, far out track that feels like it should be deeper and better. Let me know what you think, good or bad.

Description : Sometimes I love taking our great singers out of their comfort zone and placing them in a completely different genre. This time, it's Callmedezz, for whom I've created a velvety soft bed of sounds for his rather powerful voice, making sure the women feel comfortable after light is switched off :-)

Description : So ive been listening to alot of dnb lately, and i decided to try my hand at it. It turned out to be alittle more chillout than I wanted it to be, but I still like how it turned out.

A ambient type of DnB track, one to make you think, Second attempt at the DnB genre for this year, again apologise to Drum and Bass artist, guessing again not your normal DnB.Used flute Rhodes Piano, and a few other bits to hopefully get the feeling for the piece I wanted, along with a few break beats/bass lines and FX etc...

Please comment/review and the favour will be returned...

Peace Love Respect...

Description : Pure melodic Liquid Drum & Bass

I got my start in the industry (As in paid artist/music label) with Liquid DnB, it's a nice thing to go back to every once in a while. Especially remixing such fantastic vocals.

Description : Two months have passed, and since then I've had some rest and made my first two tracks using MilkyTracker.
This is my second song. Another is called Winter Night.
I dedicated this track to a dream I had in my sleep on 17/01.
Write a lot about sleep. Understand it through the language of music.
