BTW came back and there's nothing wrong with the low. I'll throw my earphones in the garbage and remember not to post too soon! :D Still a lovely and very interesting song. Great job Micky!

The first 20 seconds I think is really promising; the part after also isn't bad, but it's mostly gimmicks, in my mind. Try to make a strong track musically (like the first part), and then the effects can help to enhance it - but try to be more than just another Skrillex ;)

Dude! That's an excellent techno track! Hard as nails, booming bass, industrial sounds all over the place... and you kept my attention for the full 6:19 min! The long break in the middle is a bit of a risk but you pulled it off and kept my attention.
I'm a secret techno afficionado - quite different from my own style but good techno can be extremely pleasant and I totally like what you did here!

Hey man, that's a great vocal (set of vocals). I also like the background loop and the dubstep rhythm that you used.
They even work together, although that's certainly not obvious.
For me the transition around 0:54 is a bit sudden; the piano plus vocals in my mind had a slightly different rhythm to it than the dubstep - that's definitely not a bad thing, but it would help to a simple sould like me if you introduce elements of the beat a bit earlier, so the transition is smoother. Does that make any sense? EG the bit around 2:38 I would like to see a bit earlier, before 0:54, so my poor brain knows what to expect. It's such a smooth song otherwise, so I think that might help :)
Good job and good luck man!

Nice! All yours or you used any loops?
I feel you overpowered the mix a bit. That sort of comes with the genre, metal can have that, but I wouldn't mind a bit more clarity for the individual instruments. And I agree, try to write some lyrics and find a singer... even sing yourself :)
And Slava Ukrayini!

Very pleasant chill track. Good use of the vocals too!

Very powerful. Well done man!

That's a great track man. I listened to the acapella, which is a good dancehall vocal, I like his voice, but you took it to the next level. Also great to see how much you've grown as a producer - tooka look at some older tracks and your sound now is so much more pro. Great stuff!

Not a huge metal fan, but enjoyed this. Good drumming, solid guitars and also appreciated the lyrics.
I think that with some mastering you can get even more out of the sound. That may also be a style choice, of course.
All in all well done, I always enjoy hearing distorted guitars here :)

Hi dad! I did enjoy it ;) looking forward to seeing more of your stuff!

Has a very nice Fleetwood Mac vibe to it! I like it a lot, but (listening on cheap headphones so that might be to blame) most of the soundscape seems to be in the mid and high, and less so in the lower region? I'll give it another go with better sound later.
Lovely song though and I always love seeing collabs, so both of you well done guys!

And enjoy I did. It's straightforward but at the same time you included a lot of fun details that keep me hooked throughout the song. Great job!

That's awesome. I can hear how much fun you had!
All instruments played yourself?

Verrrry ambient and verrrry pleasant listen. Awesome work Chris!

Awesome job. Love what you did with the acapella; compared to the original it has so much more energy now, excellent.
One thing you could consider is around 1:40 to have say a 2 bar "tag", to give the audience a couple seconds to catch up. Not 100% sure of that though, because now it's relentless and that actually also works.
Top notch. Keep rocking! (Or in your case, DnBing ;)

Massive track man, and a very interesting back story. Love your work!

Oh, maybe one tiny thing. I note that from around 2:40-3:00 the vocal is slightly trailing behind the drums (the snare), and it might pay off to align that a bit more? Or was that intentional?

Ready to go mainstream, this is as usual a monster track. Man, I wish I could spend a day producing and learning with you :D Absolutely delicious drums too. I note how the snare really pops out - let me see if I can emulate that a bit :) Do you use a gate on the snare mic?

Very cool interpretation. Also especially love and appreciate the drum fill from around 1:39, tight as a... well, as a drum :)

OK, now I also get "Take a Chance" better. I do think if you merge the 2 tracks, maybe cut part of it but not much, then you have an absolutely epic track. Hats off man!

Awesome, especially the drums. Good stuff as always buddy!

Gr track but especially great drum rhythm - I want to get behind my kit and drum that out :) Good stuff man!

Very nice! I can't hear the flute but I do think there was something like a gamelan or some Asian bells?

My first thought was: what, like Hong Kong Joshua Wong, the jailed dissident and personal hero of mine? :D
I like the song, but to be honest, to me the autotune is distracting now. Can you make it less harsh? I would prefer a bit more natural voice, even if maybe not all of it is 100% in tune - that would also allow you to get the emotions more into the song. I would also consider to allow more dynamics in the vocals so you have more of a build-up.
All in all again a great effort man. Good work!

That's a really interesting and impressive track! the intro is maybe a touch long and you risk losing people there with our tiny attention spans these days, but those people would be wrong, and it's worth staying around and experiencing the whole track :)
One tiny thing: the snare sound you use feels a bit "dry" while it's such an important sound in the track. I think you could add maybe some massive reverb, or see if you have another sample for it?
Good luck man. Great work.
