Hello, at first I thought, okay, the song title says it all! After the first speed change I thought, okay now it's drived. Then, with the onset of the first sphere sounds and the superimposed, almost canon-like melodies, I had the wow experience! Although the song ultimately consists of repetitive melodies and bass runs, you managed to make it so interesting that it wasn't a problem to enjoy the song in its entirety. Well done! Greetings Manuela
to me it is very nice to see some folks still loving house of the earlier kind like Chicago House. Your tracks all are awesome and I think your problem is the same as mine a singer is needed urgently. I think that should be someone with a low kinda gospel voice. But where to find? The good ones all are busy, right?
yep totally agree need some singing or vocals that contain more than a few words doing house like this can be repetative but vocals could really add something extra but dont think anyone good would be interested in singing over my tunes lol
So, Kyle. (I assume that's your name). I've listened to all three tracks you referenced in the forum post. I think you tracks show a lot of creativity. The drums on this track were really good and you brought in interesting variations in the sounds.
The mix on all three is good, although I found the high frequency drums sounds a bit loud in the mix on the first two tracks. (I liked the balance in this track better.) I've got some degree of high frequency hearing loss so I'm perhaps not the best judge.
I really liked that fact that you kept a good range of dynamics in the tracks. They weren't all compressed and limited to the max.
Chord progressions were limited and repetitive, but that perhaps is characteristic of this EDM genre. I'm hopeless at distinguishing genres of EDM.
I do prefer tracks with more traditional song structure and strong melodic lines, but your tracks kept my interest because I think you were very inventive in morphing sounds and introducing new sounds. And, as I said, the mixes were nice and clean. So, very nice work!
hi thanks for taking time to listen to and comment on my tracks its really appreciated i usually go for a minimal and repetitive chord progression while trying to keep it interesting and not boring could do some work with drums on the other 2 was thinking same about them being too loud will have a another look at them
So, Kyle. I liked this track a lot. I understand that Verdiqo may have found it repetitive. I agree with that, but I was "hearing" it (with some re-mixing) as a backing track for vocals. With vocals the repetition issue would be solved because the variation comes from the vocal performance and lyrics. The track has choppy rhythm, so the vocals would be legato to provide contrast.
Another option instead of adding a vocal melody line would be to cut back on the number of bars that a particular sequence (loop) plays. Instead of 8 bars, try 4. Problem with that idea is that I could be totally out to lunch. I aspire to make good EDM, but I'm more attuned to pop and R&B stuff. For dance music I know that extended sections which introduce subtle changes in the track are really effective. So, what might seem repetitive to a listener would work really well for dancers. At least, that's what I've been told.
Anyway, that's my two cents worth. I like all kinds of music, but I do know that on Looperman, if I listen to a track and a vocal line springs into my head, it's a track worth pursuing. Nice work!
Prety monotone and kinda repeative. So yeah i miss some diversity in this track. Besides missing some ingredients. It still sounded decent enough though (quality wise). So yeah it was ok but it could have been better though. Anyway keep on listening & creating.
hi thanks for commenting yeah does get repetitive it was worse until I uped the bpm to make it faster that's fixed it a little my aim at the start was to keep it minimal as possible but the song has moved more into repetitiveness rather than progression there was a few other things I was trying in the song will get back to it and see if I can fix this
This sounds good on monitors as well. I think you should add some sort of instrument/synth to the intro. I mean drums are a nice way to start tracks out too. But, I think the intro is just too long for only drums to continuously play. I really liked the sounds you used, when they finally came in. The sounds gives off a chill vibe.
For me, the song felt like it was just a very long build up. I don't feel like there were any main parts, if you know what I mean. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it is something that should be worked on.

Not sure you could remix this and improve on it because the minimalism is what makes this so attractive. Great solid output on this one KKyle.
