This is a nice fun track buddy. Old time rock & roll!

Hallo Rotjeknor!

Trap is niet mijn ding (of het moet een vlizotrap zijn ;)) maar dit heb je goed gedaan natuurlijk. Lekker meeslepend, en een zware boem in de bas, altijd goed.

Some ideas to consider: you could play around a bit more with the dynamics. The high key chords at the start (around 0:03 are a bit too piercing, and you could probably dial them down a bit.
I like the build-up from say 1:05, but I think you can make that more extreme - start from really soft, then crescendo crescendo - and then at 1:16 maybe a very short pause so the drop in the next section is even harder. And if you introduce a new element there (or leave out something in the first part) then it's even more complete.

Goed werk makkert! Succes :)

You know what, 5 minutes later this is still stuck in my head, and I had this idea - it feels like the intro to a dubstep song. What if you slow it down even further (75-80 BPM?) And then go double time for some frantic dubstep?

You're getting old ;)
Haha nice! But there's still some distortion, especially in the drums I think. See if they go into the red?

No weed here, the guitar is my dope... but yeah that was dope buddy :)

Hey Ed, this is super. Crunchy drums, nice guitar chords, and what a magnificent vocal. Nice structure too... oh and there is a a lovely bass. It's got everything! Fav'ed!

The sound of the heartbeat with the spoken word gave me goosebumps man. That's awesome.
I like the idea of the track with the panned keys mimicking the heartbeat. Great idea. I do think the transition from the original heartbeat to the high notes (the C-F-C...C-G-C bit) is a bit sudden - I would consider to fade that in softer. You don't want to startle the baby, right? :)
And... congrats!!! Lovely track and I'm sure a lovely baby! (even if that's now 5, 15 or 25 years ago ;) )

Really good use of the acapella... Except around 1:20 where the vocal doesn't match your music. A bit of dissonance isn't so bad but here it doesn't work for me. The rest is excellent!

Hey Luvroxu, congrats on the birthday!! I love seeing your talent and you posting loads of stuff, that's great. You have a sound but you're not repeating yourself, and that's even better. I hope you found a community here that helps and stimulates you, because having fun with this is so important!
Regarding the track, I agree with Steve that there's an audible distortion you can probably get rid of; you possibly maxed out something. Try to fix that and it will be even better, because this is a fun track.
Keep creating, I can hear the joy and excitement and the talent!

That's really good and an engaging track; the idea remains the same more or less throughout the track but you keep it interesting.
The ending is a bit weird though? And to me it feels you maxed out the loudness so much that it's at the point of distortion - if that's not on purpose then you could consider to dial it back a bit?
Great job though, well done!

THAT GUITAR THO

Sssssssmokin'!!!

Zappa eat your heart out!!

It's absolutely lovely, very relaxing; I think you can make it even better by adding a melody, or maybe a suitable vocal. I realise that's why you call it a beat, but why not give it a stab yourself? :)

I think you got a great 4-bar loop there, and you definitely include some nice further elements, so it's not just a repeat. But to really keep the interest of the listener, it would be good to introduce another melody; switch it up a bit more.
Good luck, I think you habe a great start here and well done!

I like it! It's more a Saturday sound to me ;) but a lovely little song. All instruments played yourself? Well done!

Really good job man! I think you definitely enriched it, good combo like this. I don't think you need the fade-out, but maybe that's a question of taste ;)
In any case good job!

The first 0:40 is more my thing than the dubstep/hardstyle part ;) The music is really strong in this one, and I also like the originality of that part. To be really honest I don't have that feeling with the "dubstep" part, but that's probably because it's not so much my thing.
It's very impressive you combined both though, and I wouldn't mind the track being a bit longer. Good stuff!

Yeah same here, I saw "hyperpop" and braved myself, but that's a really catchy track, I like that. Perfect for driving or working out (which happens to be what I'm doing :D )
The intro threw me a bit though, and I had to go back to see what you had done - I heard it's indeed the same sample, so I guess it made sense, but it still felt like a bit too much of a jump.
Anyway, that's probably just me. Good track!

I think this is really promising, and I say that as someone who is not a "trap" fan at all.
I think you can build on this and make a longer and fuller track; you already have 2 strong and distinctive sounds so it's a great basis. Good work man!

Super happy to hear you're back in action my friend! My favorite bit is the part from say 0:40, loads of interesting things going on, very good stuff, and the melody is simple but strong.
All the best Maj!

When Cruce says he's having fun, you know you're going on a trip. And what a trip it was! Really awesome and interesting! Lovely groove - just a bit sudden ending? Maybe put a "needle rips over record" sound there to show it's intentional?
Love it Steve!

Ok, now I know where the great comments on the vocals came from, you are an actual singer. If you live in London, Send me your rate and your phone number, that's awesome my man.
The operatic elements are fantastic. Beautiful opening, great composition; 8 minutes is long but it never bored.
You didn't ask for "helpful" comments but given how lovely your comments were, I will give it a try; I lived absolutely everything, but for me the piano parts can be even better (given how incredibly high the standard is for everything else in this track). The piano sounds like you play it at maximum volume, and I would like it to be more dynamic - it would be a great counterpoint to play it almost pianissimo, so the listener perks up. Just like you can get a classroom to shut up by whispering, rather than screaming :)
Cam, this was an amazing ride. Fav'ed and looking forward to more stuff!

Like it! Good stuff Kirk, but the first 30-50 seconds hardly register on my cheap inner ear phone headphones (that might be similar to what BoD is saying). Crank up some of the higher sounds a bit so people don't skip during the intro - because the rest is totally worth it!

I liked this anyway, but the bit from 0:45 is right up my alley. Good stuff and a nice mix of styles!

Holy smoke, that is really awesome. So many twists and turns, AND each one made sense. My only complaint is that it's (way) too short, but you know what, I'll just listen twice. You've got a fan, buddy!

The arpeggiated melody is really good, and it works really well with the beat. Good stuff man!
