Listen To NzBeatz - PlayGround 2k10 House Song By NzBeatz At Looperman.com

Its a good track, could be a little longer. The start was too long, and after 2.10 min, you added a bit more on it, i was off it by then, you should of kept it simple and transition it better before leading it back in. Apart from that, not bad for me, i like it.

Peace...

I'm gonna say this real fast before i forget what I'm thinking, try shortening the intro a little bit, it got kinda dull after 10 seconds,(that's the average attention span of anyone listening to a new song) the wood block? idk but that instrument with the insane reverb, i like that, but maybe use a little less reverb. also i am huge on bass, and kick bass drums, my favorite part about any song are those two things, but i felt they were lacking power and depth. i would add that power and depth by mixing it up a little bit, i can't really elaborate much on that through text. but that repetitive "dun dun dun dun" is what really made me lose interest.
on a further note, i think the song was a little to short to be house, generally any song is three to four minutes long, and a dance/techno/house song is generally anywhere from four to five minutes longs, and i've known some to be longer. but for now try to keep it average with the duration and make it a little longer. the ending seemed kinda pushed together and i know alot of songs do it, and i learned the hard way, a crash isn't the best way to end a song, its like a book that leaves you hanging. another thing too that would also help with adding some more time, is that a vast majority of songs have what is called a 'hook' which is basically a part of a song that repeats its self, generally that part that gets stuck in your head and makes you want to listen to the song again, and again.
no that i think of it too, the whole track seemed kinda bunched together after it really got started, the part i liked and wouldnt mind hearing again is that section with the woodblock sounding thing. i would add some more to that and maybe make that the hook, and for a break down take that piece just as it is now with out anything added to it. another thing is try speeding it up maybe? idk. maybe if you spice it up, shuffle the beat a little bit and expand it out so it doesnt feel so squished together, you might not need to speed it up, as long as the track is filling.
and thats another thing, i've never heard a track like this. there are points in the track that it has a 'full' sound to it and other parts where it doesnt. but you'll be able to correct that with more experience. infact all of this is all fixed with more practice. i started off kinda the same way.

now i didn't just criticize your track for my entertainment. i did it because i wish someone had done it for me when i first started out. i learned just about everything i use today on my own and it took alot of time.

what i did to learn better, was to listen to songs, making sure i heard every little detail and made mental notes about every song i listened to. i asked myself questions like "why do i like this beat, how can i achieve that feeling, which instrument is usually panned where, how heavy are the effects... ect."

now if you want to make more dance/techno/house and you plan on following my advice of song analyzing, and comparing to y
