Ha Steve brother, just dropped in today to see whats happening and you're here, nice!
Loving this new composition you got going, Magix 2016, i guess i better update soon 'cause this sounds great.
A mellow track too i might add, great listening too to welcome the spring that has arrived downunder.
Keep going strong brother!
Blessings - Billy.
If you hadn`t mentioned this was Trap, I wouldn`t know better Steve..guess my age is showing as I`m just not up on the current electronic genres...I just listen to whats happening without wondering where it fits...but I do like music that is done well like this...don`t understand why this one doesn`t have a lot of comments...its great evening listening over my side of the water...leaves you with a smile, plus as a bonus a I got a bit of education on Trap...nice job putting it together & top notch bit of work on the production...sounding damn good mate.....Ed
This one seems to carry a lot of your influences Steve...I really like that the mix is a bit minimal (eg: not over cluttered) so it sounds really clean...great little poppy uplifting sound and it goes perfectly with vocal..Tip of the hat for the thoughtful approach to composing with those little breaks just at the right time..I`m not really up on genres but seems to me this one would fit right into today`s charts but it would be a winner in more that several decades of music..the kind of little tune that leaves with you a smile (and it warms up a cool night over here on the Canadian prairies)...you got it all right...so whats to say..enjoyed the listen..mighty fine bit of work...Ed
Yes, this is a very good rendition of an eighties pop track! It's an impressive feat! I think the style and balance of the mix has a lot to do with the old style vibe, and it sounds good this way. Fun vocals, and you used them well. Very fun track to hear! Faved and DL'd!
Nice work Steve, this one is so chilled it cooled off my morning coffee, haha. Seriously, it really is a nice mix of some really good loops. You really have grown as a composer and arranger over the past 4 years or so, and have now set yourself apart from the pack (in a good way). Really well done. I hope all is well.
Thank you Bear.
It takes me a long time to find the loops I like but when I do it falls in to place nicely. The bad part is I actually like my own tracks and have to listen to them ??? Is this wrong ??
You should do more chill Steve...this is really good...when I looked at the hard limiting on the Wav picture I expected a big pumping mix but it sounds good (synth is a lot more forgiving that acoustic instruments)....the vocal is good and it has a nice balance of the warm, low & higher/lighter sounds...nice smoooooth listening over my side of the pond....well done...Ed
The vocals sit so well in the mix that they're integrated with the fabric of the track, and I love the beautiful synth hooks that are weaving through as we move to minute two. The bells are gorgeous; it can be hard to find/make bells that are both in tune AND interesting, and these strike that balance. This is a sweet track; I love how it develops over time.
Way to go Steve, That intro is mysterious and compelling. I wasn't expecting vocals then and that particular type of vocals over a chill beat and chord structure. But it works well. One hand hitting the other in a repetitive motion is the sound your deserve for this work.

Hey dude, this is pretty sweet! I'm hearing some flavors that I've come to appreciate from music made by the group "TuneYards." If you haven't heard them, I suggest you check it out on youtube or whatever, they have some cool songs/videos. I'm especially liking the slow attack string parts in this, they add a lot of tension to the mix. I would enjoy the overall song far more if the mastering was eased back a bit... as to turn it up very far I need to risk my ears a bit. I like chill out, and other music forms, to use my amps and speakers more fully rather than be boosted too much before-hand. I love the ideas contained here and the instrument choices! Great song! Fave.
Well done Steve. I enjoyed this one from you. Always good to hear from another Magix user.

Great! I listened to a few tracks before this and was confused as to where the good ones were. This one got me right from the start, love it. Big fan of chill out music. This one sounds good, good tempo, good sound quality, I'm sure I heard some strings in there which is just a winner for me.
Thanks for sharing, was a pleasure to hear your work.

This is a tasteful bit of chillout and the bells and string parts in the intro are quite mysterious yet inviting.
Are those just pure Magix samples or have you actually arranged those notes in any way?
Fairly powerful vocals, which takes it in a very different direction that I wasn't expecting. More of a chilled pop music style now.
1:12 that's a cool synth melody. This is is sitting and chilling nicely now.
The rest is pretty similar so not much more to say about it.
Oh, and I agree with Spivkurl that the mix/master is too loud. This is chillout, not pumping d'n'b.
Congrats.
