This is very cool. Lots of fun sounds that work together. I agree with the vocal mix maybe being too low, or perhaps benefiting from an exciter to wake it up in the mix. lately I sidechain and duck my instrumental bus by .5 to 2 decibels and I'm often surprised by how much I can duck it to make space without making it obvious. You both did a very nice job here. Good on it!

I like this song, it's awesome. I would like to hear a background shout for "I don't wanna waste" at :59
It seems like a good place to start building up supporting vocals that would really push the chorus at 1:12 like a mf. Doing that will also make the 2nd verse sound more intimate when you could drop out the backing vocals at 1:48.

Good bracing on "trials and errors" with backing vocs.

You did a nice job breaking the track back down for the outro.

If you want another voice for it let me know! I'd have a 2-3 day turnaround probably.
Damn good song.

"i get so saturated hearing the same volume all the time" I was just talking to an engineer about this today!
By the time I'm about ready to pass early mixes around, I'm blind to the track nuances from hearing it so many times. A peer review site like this really helps me out sometimes. Even if you are relatively new to production you can still give valuable advice and opinions as a technical savvy listener. I hope we can help each other!

This track is pure FiOs.
Really though, it's a nice track. Balanced and dynamic. Maybe the snare/clap could have a little more presence, but I'm not an expert in this genre, maybe it's better a little subdued. That was literally the only thing I could find to comment about technically. :) Well done!

Reminds me of "Tangled up in Blue" with the intro chords. Never a bad thing. I agree with the monster magnet reference. There is room for tambourine and shakers. Def vocals would light this up. Groovy piece man.

Nice job on this. The beat is killer. I like this as a song, would play it in my car.

That's tight as feck dude. If you like remixing reggae I just uploaded track stems for remix, I would be stoked for feedback or remix collab.

Nailed the pop-punk genre. Really solid piece.

Super nice mix. Quality Hip Hop. Summer jam status. :D

Ahhh. Words of wisdom. :D

Classic hard DnB style. Good one.

Swanky, Great sounding CBG. Nice!

Super clean production on this! Good hook with the synth doubling. :D Breakdown just before the end is tight. I like this one a lot.

The automations are cool. Well made track. Good job man! \m/

The drum brush scrape noise is cool. I could use to hear more bass on my system. Doesn't thump on my 20/20 bas v3's which thump pretty easily. Very good song and lyrics here. You guys are basically killing it. The track feel and performances are on point. \m/

This mix sits really well. I can imagine some country vocals on it. Bass playing sounds great.

This is cool. Nice chord progression. I also like the high end wave synth as THC mentioned, well textured. If you want less chip-sounding drums you might need to compress less or parallel compress the drums. I like this compression on the drums musically though, lets the toms ring out.

I really like the mixing and resampling on this. Nice job! Good upbeat summer track.

Sounds good. Keep on it. :)

Great vocal.
-if you can record real claps and layer them that sounds really good since they are in focus throughout the track and benefit from any added personality. Snaps, clacks, shakers, etc. Good song too btw.

Synthtastic, I like this arrangement and glide playing. Good stuff.

I like the lyrics and delivery. the mix is a little flattened, but so was that style of music historically, so it's very accurate imo, but it could sound better with modern treatments and mastering. Love the style man, I hope you keep bringing it back!

Sounds well mixed and composed to me! You did well adapting these vocals imo, and i hear no issues. Volume is pumped almost to saturation, volume is maximized. I hope you can check out some of my vocal stems and consider them in your workflow.

Great sounding bass on this track. Honestly clicked the track bc I just finished the first season of the series. :D
I play bass too, from one to another your bass playing is killer.

I like the lyrics. i think the vocal timing needs some nudging around to find the rhythm pocket. the pocket in the piano part is great. I would like to hear the vocal timing more connected to that sample timing-wise. break at 2:18 is what's up. the space opens up the track and i can really hear the potential. :D

Yeah! nice and chunky playing on this. I think you can find a singer pretty easily for this kind of music. the arrangment is classic and appropriate. I really enjoyed listening to it. bass could be a little deeper but maybe that's just my taste.
Nice production too. \m/
