Haha definitely. Future bass is gonna picking up some serious traction soon. I'm glad you liked my song.
P.S. Just as a tip for anyone else reading this, the saw really isn't an LFO. It's sidechained to silent drums so I can get the rhythm I want easily and I used a utility (basically a volume meter for Ableton) to make it sound cleaner. Just using sidechain sounded a bit messy.
Hey! I've been working on my version of this song, and I'd thought that you would like to hear what I've been working on! This track is not yet complete and is not my entry to the constest, and I've thinking about starting over. Thanks! https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/178616
Sadly I can't give feedback on the song until the competition is over. It would be unfair to others. Based on what other people think of your post and your intuition, you must decide if you want to change it or not. Just remember to complete it and send the final song to me by the deadline on August 31st.
You cant hear that this is your first try on this genre. It sounds more like an experienced production. You seamlessly fit teh vocals and synths together as a whole and have a lot of variation in the melody and beat. It was and is a joy to listen to and cant give you any hints as it is perfect in my ears! Respect and favoured!
CRAZY! if you ever wanna collab on some future bass that is my favorite genre ever! really trying to get into the fundamentals of it, the bells around 1:20 are fantastic!
I'm happy you loved it. Sorry I'm getting ready to start college in a week and as a result, I'm too busy to be working on collabs atm. Maybe some other time.
Love this, sheensheep. The piano keys and Eshar’s soothing voice brings me to a meditative state then as the beat kicks in.. I’m suddenly possessed to do some popping kind of dance with a fierce look on my face. It's crazy! (But you wouldn’t want to see it. Hehehe.) That’s the power of your track. I want to share this to my dancer friends and see what they can choreograph out of this. Great track artwork too. It reflects what I experience as I listen to the track. Looking forward to more future bass tracks from you! :)
Since i cant reply 2 ur reply :/ i have 2 make new a comment, sorry. But foley is ordinary everyday sounds like opening a can of soda, or picking up your keys to go Pokemon hunting. A song that i heard recency thats uses foley well is > https://soundcloud.com/ujico/ramune. Ignore the weeaboo background, but like the squeaky bed, the glasses clinking together and what i think is a gun are all examples of foley.
Yeah, one of the disadvantages of Looperman I wish would change is definitely being able to thread replies on comments.
And I'll look into that for my next song. Thanks.
Thanks. I'm considering this track as done and move on, so I'll keep the criticism about changing the kick around for my next song (the kick has been mentioned a few times).
And can you tell me what foley is by the way? Do you know any good songs which used foley well?
Not normally my type of music but I started listening and couldn't stop. Love this! Super well done, sounds really professional and clean, definitely something special here. Good work!
Very cool and interesting piece! I liked the minimalism of it, which kept the loudness of the mix at a good level, while still being able to hear the intricacies. Fun arrangement and sequencing as well! So, can you explain what I should look for which differentiates "future bass" from "trap" or "dubstep?" I've never really figured it out. I like the song a lot, I'd just like to learn more about what makes this genre what it is. Thanks for sharing the piece!
Thanks I'm glad you liked it. I'll see to keeping my future productions minimal to some extent and intricate. And I'll give you a quick rundown for each genre and give you an artist to look into so you can clearly listen to the difference.
Dubstep - Loud and dirty (Excision)
Trap - Minimal and more focus on bass (Troyboi)
Future Bass - Much more melodic and synth focused (San Holo (my fav artist rn))
The first drop for the song I made can be considered future bass (more focus on melody and synth) while the second drop is pretty much trap (more focus on bass). Hope this helps clear things up.

Yo this is banging! I love this track, sounds incredibly professional and is a great first (or any) attempt at future bass. Im loving the breaks in the synth and the overall vibe of the song, the vocals are super fitting too. Sounds like Blackmill or something. Keep on killin it!
Oh hell. This is definitely heavy and crisp. Future Trap, yeah? I love the various sfx, and leads you have all throughout the track. Very calm in certain places like around 1:37. Your mixing is really sharp, and your use of the fat 808's are hella full. Nice man!
Thank you for adding my vocals to the track. I really like this and like I said before you have a natural talent. It will be interesting to see how others re-interpret your vision. I might even have a go at the remix comp myself lol.
Probably one of the best track I've heard lately. I'm nitpicking here but maybe it'd sound better if the vocals were more wet. Can't wait to hear what you come up with next!
You won't find tracks like this there though. They're older and I've been changing my style to fit something more like this track: future bass/experimental. Hopefully you'll stil find some enjoyment in the old songs I've made.
Maybe I would just de-compress it or (de-limit) a little. The wave form seems peaked in some parts, probably would be nicer on the hears and more dynamic if you lowered it just a bit.
Nice one man, didn't expect it when I read "trap". Way different than average. Has a really nice flow and rythm.
I have some different trap tracks too, would like your opinion.
Keep them coming

Dope LFO saw with noise! Those 808's goes in hard tho! Congratz dude, your skills are getting there.
P.S. Just as a tip for anyone else reading this, the saw really isn't an LFO. It's sidechained to silent drums so I can get the rhythm I want easily and I used a utility (basically a volume meter for Ableton) to make it sound cleaner. Just using sidechain sounded a bit messy.
