This is great so far, as Danke mentioned it could use more work on the drums.
I checked out your "my influences" section and while i did expect to see the likes of Iggy Pop and Joy Division (based on your music) I was suprised to see no mention of Sisters of Mercy. I highly recommend you check out their albums "First and Last and Always" and "Floodland" if you haven't already. Your music falls in a similar vein to theirs so I feel it might be a good source of inspiration for you.
Needless to say, i'm interested to see how this project pans out.
Hi yes thanks for all your comments appreciate the feed back. I plan to re do the song with bass guitar added and different synth sounds, its a basic progression B D G E so will upload when this is done in the coming week. Thks for sister of mercy will listen tonite.
Haha it's insane I've heard songs top the charts that weren't as good as this. Great mixing/mastering and composition, lyrics are written well and sound good, lots of polish.
I don't know why but it reminds me of something that'd be on the soundtrack to a Fast & Furious movie.
I don't usually like the excessively loud kick/sub combo common in trap but you pull it off pretty well. The composition and production quality of this sounds professional. It'd be cool if someone puts lyrics to this.
Haha this is awesome! Great choice of sounds that not only feel nostalgic, but all mesh really well together. Wish I could sing, a lot of lyric ideas come to me just listening to this. Hope you find someone who can.
This is really nice, kinda reminiscent of old-school techno.
One thing I don't like is that there's not much progression to it. Like maybe when the beat comes back at 1:07 you should start adding more instruments/elements to it.
What you have so far is great, i just think you should try to keep adding more to it. It has a lot of potential.
This is cool, love that change in flow when 1:07 hits. Though i feel like that would be a good time to introduce a counter-melody or even just some pads playing out some chords. Anyway, good job.
I like when it hits 2:05 and by "like" I mean it's pretty damn terrifying which I assume is what you're going for. If the subject matter wasn't so dark I would maybe say it sounds cool in a "Quake theme music" kind of way.
THANKS THIER WILL BE MORE TRAP BEATS POSTED IM TRYING TO NETWORK AND WORK CAILLAB WITH PPL SO IF U HAVE ANY SAMOLES LIKE TRAP BASS, DRUMS, MELODIES COMENNT WHEN U MAKE NEW ONES AND AGAIN THANKS.
thanks very much SimilarSystem,
Ive worked so long solo I think I end up filling melodically any space left for vocals.
I dont see dead people, i just hear voices ahah
cheers again
Nice track but the bass is lacking quite a bit. I'd go back and forth between headphones and speakers until you find a sound that works on both. For me the general rule of thumb is: if the bass sounds loud and sub-heavy on speakers but you can't hear it on ear/headphones than highpass filter it and turn it up (a highpass anywhere between 150-260Hz should do), and if it's loud on ear/headphones but quiet on speakers than do the opposite and lowpass it.
I'm listening on headphones and can barely hear the bass so i'd personally turn it up a couple dB. And again if that makes it too loud on speakers than highpass until it sounds right, then put your headphones back on to make sure you didn't over do it, then just keep going back and forth until you get it.
Nice work, I don't really like sub that much so don't usually enjoy stuff like this where it's sustained almost all the way through but this worked out pretty well.
Hella funky. Whole song is pretty solid, find myself really drawn to that organ. Great arrangement too, you drop things in and out at just the right times to hold my attention. I would call it jazz but i don't listen to enough of it to be able to name this specific style.
Haha that's coincidental, I only just finished a film noir inspired track called "Fatale" (shortened from Femme Fatale). I really Like this, especially that piano melody that comes in on 12:00 and plays throughout, and those organs that give it a cool tension. Solid work.
Super cool. Really love the synth work in the breakdown, kinda reminds me of Daft Punks' Tron soundtrack. And I like how 'up-close and personal' the breakbeat sections are, especially that drop at 2:52.
Ok, nice. Thanx for that. On the breakdown, the first synth is the original, the 2nd is an attempt to recreate it, but then just decided to mash em together. I'll have to check out that 'Tron' stuff.
Solid work. This is one of those tracks where the only way anyone could possibly dislike it is if they disliked it subjectively because there's just nothing about this that needs improvement. It's flawless.
I don't know why but your name and avatar stood out to me as being something i'd probably like, so I thought I'd take a listen to a bunch of your tracks. I have to say I really like your stuff. I got into synthwave recently which encouraged me to listen back to a lot stuff from the 70's and 80's and your tracks make me nostalgic for that era despite me never having lived it. Just top notch work, if you ever put out an album i'd buy it for sure.
In regards to what i meant about "cleaning up" the track: I'm not really sure how effective this will even be considering you're using loops (which may have been poorly exported/recorded to begin with) but i'm talking about the use of mixing utilities like filtering, equalization, compression etc. When you put 2 loops/recordings together there will most likely be a point where they share the same frequencies. If you keep letting the same frequencies multiply it starts bogging up the mix and turning into this layer of noise. So if this happens it's best to figure out which instrument sounds best in that frequency, and then cut out (through filtering or EQ'ing) that same frequency from other instruments. Sorry I could go on about it all day so it's probably something to look into when you have the time. It's the reason why sound engineers exist but if you start learning about it as early as possible than you may never need one.
Ah, I'm hip to what you're saying and no, I didn't do any mixing other than adjusting the volume of each channel. Heck, I didn't even use reverb. All of the loops are as they were recorded by the artists who made them. Then again, everything sounded pretty uncluttered and not muddy to me so, perhaps I just don't know what to listen for? Although I do recall running across a fairly involved video on YouTube about it a few weeks ago so, maybe I should go look for it again. Thanks!
