first thing what in my mind about this is Arkham Asylum. sorry if i`m offended you (i`m a honest guy).
everything is in place and sounds nice i hear every frequency which means that you mix really really good!
only what disturbs me is the 808 kick its like there is no sub or to deep for my headphones idk (i`m making music with them).
Anyway its a nice work and got some weird but nice vibes! Cheers!
I don't really understand what you mean by Arkham Asylum coming into your mind from this song. Could you explain that more clearly?
And by all means, be as honest as possible. That's why I love this community. That's the only real way I can improve.
I made the decision to decrease the volume of the bass to put more focus on the synths. They're not as prominent as in other tracks. Though now that I think about it, I should have either given the synths more intricacy or increased the bass with the synths as they are now to give the drop even more energy.
Absolutely beautiful track! I got the sense of anticipation throughout the whole song. I like how you gave lots of time for the song to "breath", combining moments of intensity with a chill aspect. Very well done! Do you use Soundcloud, youtube, or any other music platform? Let me know so I can follow you and your music.
nice!, took me to a dream world. love the beat. in the middle I felt a beat that wanted to get out.( this is a good thing, not bad) it kept me glued. started to tap a beat with music.
Glad it took you to such a place, though I feel I could have executed the concept differently. In the middle, I left a bit of breathing room for vocals. So it should sound even more complete. Glad you enjoyed it
wow, the build is great. it gave me chills. not to many songs do that. only when there is an emotional power behind it. love to hear the rest when it comes out.
Thanks! Glad you like it. Like I mentioned in other replies it'll definitely get finished, but it will take time. I'll do my best to keep emotions high throughout the song.
OK, this is sounding really promising. You MUST continue with it. I really like the orchestral treatment and it has very interesting transitions. Keeps the listeners' interest. I have no idea what "future bass" is, so am going to do some research. I can never keep all the genres straight, but I know what I like and I like this a lot.
I'll definitely get the song completed, but it will take a while.
Hopefully by now you've learnt what future bass is, now that it has become more popular. It's basically more melodic trap, but it's just a broad definition. Music over genre.
This sounds really nice to me and now I wish to hear the final result..:) I hope you will continue to have alot of good fun working on this one ! Bottom line...thumbs up !:)
This is probably the toughest song I'm working on finishing right now, so it's not going to be all fun Haha. Though I'm really curious how it will sound in the end myself.
Finally getting back to replying to old comments on my tracks so I'm a little late Haha Anyways I'm currently busy on a lot of projects, so maybe in the future we could collab! I'm really glad you liked the track.
Wow okay I loved that.
That build was something to be proud of. I feel like that right off the bat you could drop into future bass and it would sound wonderful.
I'll be impressed whatever you wind up doing.
Thanks I'm really glad you liked it. I thought of dropping it right off the bat after the orchestral intro, but I wanted to experiment with contrasting dynamics and not just loud all the way. I've still got a lot of work to do Haha Thanks for the comment.
Nice preview! The gentle 'ping pongs' at 0:40 had my attention in this piece and could lead to a nice part after that buildup! I love the fact you fuse styles together with 'no fear'. Really seeking your own style and desire (for this track) instead of mainstream and the simple ways out. I respect that.
I do totally understand the 'expectations towards yourself issue'. I haven't got any full tracks released here on Looperman yet but there's a lot going on behind the curtains here and as addition, my perfectionism sometimes just blocks things up.. lol
Tiny feedback thingy:
Knowing its a preview and work in progress, so please forgive me in that.
For me, the 0:35 transition is a bit out of the blue.
I'm fully confident that it will turn out as something beautiful so keep it up!
The whole idea of posting it before it was done was to get as much feedback as possible so no need to be forgiven. I welcome all kinds of criticism. Especially when it comes to finding my own style.
I'll work on the transition, and make it sound as smooth as possible.
And yeah, I understand what you mean. There's always a part of me that strives for perfection, and it can be extremely discouraging. I have around a 100 projects that are either incomplete or complete but will never see the light of day because I'm not proud of it. But being in a community like looperman helps because of all the support an all the knowledge I can get from people here.
Sounds like the making of another amazing track! Really looking forward to the full version. I love the idea of an orchestral type beginning leading into future bass. Keep up the great work!
i prefer the second part. This track will walk very well with a trip hop beat. What kind of style will you choose for your definitive version?
i don't know words to describe what i feel wrong in the first part... if you really want i can tell you in french :)
This is a trip from start to finish Sheen.Lots of great ideas and big compressed sounds,dirty, almost nasty! but it draws the listener in.Great job dude.
Haha Thanks for all your points and I'm glad you really liked the song.
By the way I only recently found this out, but the bass on the first drop is barely audible on speakers, but can be heard on earphones and headphones. I wonder if that's a problem I need to look out for next time.
As for tips, I don't really have that many I'm learning as well Haha But for future bass, there's a lot of focus on melody and harmony. Try learning about 7th and 9th chords.

Every second of the track is total eargasm xD
Loved the LFO automations in the drop. Very perfect!
I thought the second drop would be identical to the first but I was wrong.
Second drop was really a twist for me. Nice trap stuff there too!
Amazing work on vocals. Takes the track to another level.
The dreamy synths and leads throughout the track were nice. Nice reverb on them.
Mixing is on point. Great work.
Any tips for making future bass would be helpful.

Aviat
