The drums! Where are the drums? Lol! Yeah you should definitely work on defining the drums a bit as they get buried in there.

The brass section is extremely well put together however it's to centered. The strings have the same problem. You gotta leave that middle space available for the vocalist.

If you widen the brass and the strings you'll get a bigger sound and definitely have a lot of room in there for the drums and anything that might come after wards.

Great work on this one! I agree with Manzet... the drums need a bit more bottom... alittle more "boom" for emotion and power. Bring the level up and compress a bit but watch the headroom (allow enough room for vocals over top).

Horn Section Is Banging... And The Break For The Verse Is Major... Drums Could Use A Bump Up In Level, But It's A Heater Yo...

Description : "Tears of the Moon" is just a melody practice of mine, so that's why it sounds a little sloppy, as always Don't forget to share your thoughts and ideas with me. They help me a lot with improving myself. Special thanks for KayOs2.

Description : Shorten My Days is a deeply personal prayer about examining the true intentions behind our relationship with God. It wrestles with the uncomfortable question of whether we seek Him because we genuinely love Him, or because of what we want from Him and the world around us. It is a plea for God to strip away selfish motives, sustain us through life's battles, and teach us to live in a way that brings glory to His name.

Description : 'Main Barbaad Ho Gaya' means 'I got destroyed in loving you'. I had created this track last year. The vocals are AI. However the music and the tune is mine. Hope you enjoy this tragic love track. I was inspired by the Bollywood movie 'Saiyaara' when creating this track.

This started as a bandlab beat called Gridlock. Just mentioning in case someone wants to go get a clean version of the main backing track.
