Damn, this is really impressive stuff. The main thing that stands out for me is the surprisingly powerful vocals for a chillout piece. They sound like they should be in some hard rock/emo but, oddly enough, they work.
Cool pad intro and then at 0:32 you get the groove going with that kind of arp synth.
0:47 piano is subtle and playing all the right (low notes).
1:51 after that intense vocal I'm expecting it to kick into some 150 BPM metalcore or punk or similar. But no, it's some cool, fat kick chillout. Nice merger of genres. Piano really comes to the fore there.
This is very musical and I shall say more another time but it's a fave for me for now.
How much of this have you played, how much is made up of samples?
good for you RealProblemShuckers...very cool & easy listening chill you have going on here...the crossover points on some of the looops are a bit noticible ( intro in particular)...but the music overcomes that little issue...enjoyed this one...keep on my young friend...a big well done to you...Ed
this pad from the beginning is super nice. The combination of mellow piano and trance vocals may seem bit strange at first but in the context of entire track it is really fine like this for me. Interesting atmosphere you've created here. Nice effort - really good chillout vibes! Alex
(PS. I updated my track - it's quite different now. You might check it out again if you like.)
How you mix genres together is all right...this vocs could easily be in the lead of kinda nu metal but it works here...we can't say it's chill...I mean the vocs...the drums neither...but overall it's chill...
Sounds a bit plastic in places but this is absolutely great track with incredible vocals and some fantastic transitions
and in my opinion deseves a big 'fav'!:)
Hi. That's a really classic synth house organ riff. I guess it's a loop. In fact, it's so classic, I was hearing the vocals from a few 90s tracks in my head as I listened, especially Show Me Love by Robin S.
Now that is a hell of a tune. Big classic smash hit right there.
Everything sits pretty tightly in this fairly minimal type of track.
2:10 those vocals are a bit of a surprise but I quite like them. Kind of seductive. Certainly nothing like Show Me Love.
Are you able to hear some of the audio pops in this as one loop moves to the next? Eg 0:07, 2:09, 2:17, 3:41 and no doubt other places though they're masked by the drums on top. You can fix those audio pops.
Overall, a decent 90s house dance track but I guess I would have liked a bit more variation in that classic organ house loop.
P.S. Damn, big congrats if you really are only 11! I had no idea but I totally understand your point about not wanting it to be mentioned. Hey, I'm only 3! Well, not only 3 but there's a 3 in there at the start...
Thank you! I can see what you mean about the Robin S stuff (btw I love the synth used at the intro of Show Me Love), i'm actually a big fan of the 90's Eurodance Era (my favourite is 'Surrender Your Love' by the Nightcrawlers, such an underrated tune, I love the bass on that track. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P06Xa80nd8g)
I tried to make the tune as minimal as possible, but yet still something to dance to (e.g My Love by Route 94 & Jess Glynne is very bare and minimal but still very groovy.)
It was really hard to search for a perfect acapella but when I heard KnowKontrol's acapella I was like YES THIS IS PERFECT! I knew that there were going to be complications and the vocals weren't going to be to everyone's taste but I liked it 'cos I'm familiar with KnowKontrol because I have previously used one of his vocals on my track 'Can You Feel Me?' listen to it here: http://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/155018
Aaaah, the audio pops. I am aware of this; and hopefully this can be fixed.
Yeah, the main loop came from WongKiShoo, not me! I would've replicated it but honestly, it didn't really work. I could get the sound that I wanted to.
And the fact i'm 11! Ahahah, not many people do know I'm 11. Lol, your in your 30s? Huh!
Sorry if this reply is big, that's just the way it is...
Pretty clean sounding mix overall. The kick, like Pete said, is snappy and sounds great here. The break around 2:00 could use some work on the vocals. the vocal sound reminds me of the singer from DePeche Mode, they have a similar tone. Maybe some reverb, more volume or whatever might emphasize that a bit and make it stand out. I agree with others that some work could be done to the vocals to enhance them a bit and make them fit a little easier with the music.
Vocals are a tricky thing to mix, at least I find that to be true. I try different effects depending on the genre, feel and production on the song. I must also agree with the others that for 11 years old you seem to way ahead of the pack, that is impressive!!
Interesting use of slow vocals but I think they don't fit perfectly. I like the concept a lot but the arrangement doesn't work as planned, imho. Overall a better work on the mix would really pump the tune up. I liked the idea, thouhg, keep working on it!
hey, Nice one. I am into a dance electronic mood for a while and think you did very good work here. Vocals are bit strange indeed but they add a very fine colour and nice melodic variety contrasting to repetitive elements.
Good chill vibes. Alex
That's okay, man. Everyone has their opinions. BTW, by vocals do you mean the chopped vocals or main vocals by KnowKontrol? Just leave another comment saying which one. Thanks!
Yeah man, nice sublime Deep House. It does bear resemblance to the Route 94 track. Man you got some serious skills for your age, you definitely need to keep at this. Sometime in the near future we will all be telling stories about how influential we were in helping you make it as a big time recording artist!!
Hey!
I'm not a big deep house fan but still some tracks force me to listen to it! the same with this track, from the moment i've pushed play i couldn't turn it off! nicely done my friend! my head was nodding to the beat! :)
wow ...nice to hear some nice thick drums and a snare/clap that snaps...
not sure about that vocal at 0.45 not sure it fits with the deepness .. it might if it had some kinda reverb or fx on it...to be honest I'm not sure any of the vocals work in it..I might be because they are crisp..ya know?
though I do like the track and the mix down and master how ever rough is well done...
great grabber at the front. that is a neat color that you add at 1:20. wondering what that is. like the way you take your time developing and varying your beat in subtle ways. very cool work. congrats!
This is great. Really like the riff you've used and that chopped vocal sounds sweet. There's some nice drops and you've chosen good complimentary loops.
Where did you get the vocal from? it's a nice touch.
Really enjoyed listening to this track.

Hi there, I just listened to a few of your tracks and I'm impressed. Amazing for someone your age. Keep it up cuz you're good at this and you'll only get better. You never learn out where music's involved. I'm in my 50's now and never stop discovering new tricks or beats. I started making music at 10 and believe me you never stop evolving. I look forward to your new songs. Rock on, Tim Terror.
I keep having to remind myself that you are only 11 years old (maybe you turned 12 now). You have a better grasp on music composition than many people who are 2, 3 or 4 times your age. Great mix as well. Nothing to critique here, just a huge amount of respect for you and all that you do. Keep at it - you have a huge future in this business. I hope all is well.

Yeah, I meant the ones from Knowncontrol. I Like his vocals too, but they don't fit in here in my opinion. But like I said great track though.

Nice chill track. Man im really jealous about how you do the synthesized music so well and easy. your songs always worth to listen. :)
One thing: I don't like the vocals here, I think they don't fit. Hope you don't mind :)
But the beat is really nice and i think you hit the route 94 theme 100%.
