on Next to You by AtticElla
Nice brightness and great movement, I enjoyed listening. Maybe just a couple more fills?

Well, If I understand what you mean correctly, in this style of lofi hiphop, fills, frills, cymbal crashes and such are used very sparingly if at all. Not even sprinkled effect hits. Listen to anything by Kupla on Bandcamp and you'll see what I mean. Kupla is fantastic!

Thanks for the comment JackLake!

on Skooln ft Striking Daggers by JoeyBonezSD1
Love those lyrics. Makes me think of Cannibal Ox. Chuck in some breaks or a refrain and you've got a real hit. Dope.

on Immersing - With Jenna Evans by HeathAlexander
Love the way the track develops and builds. And there is so much space but with nothing getting lost. Processing on the vocals is spot on too.

Nice work indeed.

on Super Heroes Cinematic VST by Grozzou
If this is an original composition then nice job Grozzou!

As for the sound, one thing would be more variation in dynamics of each instrument. I want to hear bigger swells in the strings and brass, and lots of them.

The best advice I ever got was use reference tracks. Pick a track that is similar to yours in style and use it to get the levels and space of the different parts right. This makes me think of Hans Zimmer, so find a track like 'Taken' from 'The Last Samuari'. Download it, and keep comparing the sound to yours.

But really this is pretty sweet, wouldn't be surprised if I heard it in a film.

on From Away by HeathAlexander
Nice track dude. Are you using analog synths or plugins if i may ask? They're super sweet.
HeathAlexander
HeathAlexander replied 15th Aug 2019 - 6 years ago
Thank you. They're plug-ins that I've tweaked and stacked and played through a MIDI keyboard.

Nice track! Don't get too hung up on a label. Just send it out everywhere you can and then keep on making more great songs!

RaizerVT replied 22nd Jul 2019 - 6 years ago
Yeah im not hung up, i just want a label that will give me decent exposure, someone with at least 10k followers would be nice!
