Pretty groovy I might say :) I can't say that it's common nor rare because I feel that this track you've made is something that I've heard before (or not) btw, nice use of instruments but in the mixing, try to tweak a little on it. Overall, Nice :)
Hi !! Hi ReonN ! Thank you for stopping by ;) I'm 100% sure you haven't heard it before unless you already checked it here or on my profile on Soundcloud. You might hear some elements that sound familiar because of the style of the track but that's it, i don't even use loops. About the mixing yeah it can definitely be improved thank you very much for your input ;) Best Regards WB
Love it. Exciting and different. Original. Voice sounds good to my ears. Really great rhythm to this and love the main synth sound and it's prominent level.
Thank you silverman im very happy with this track , i was just taking a ride on your (train)track lol,good work there ;) Thanks for stopping by and take the time to let me know your thoughts. Peace WB
That drumbeat is very catchy if I must say so myself haha. Nicely balanced and the bass has a presence that is just right, not overbearing and not too quiet. Everything sits quite nicely in this mix. I have no complaints with this one, which is rare for me to say. Oh, in my opinion the vocal could have been pulled back just a hair so that way it doesnt cut so roughly through the mix. Besides that, everything else sounds pretty darn awesome. Love it.
Hello ER! Good to hear from you, thank you for listening and leave a nice comment ;)
"That drumbeat is very catchy if I must say so myself" True.I had to synthesize the kick from scratch to make it sound as i wanted it to sound, and i do that all the time now since samples usually don't work very well in my music i need specific frequencies to make it gel with the bass which is also made from basic synthesis. In fact i synthesize every sound except when i need real instruments and the drums as i like the sound of real recorded drums (snares , hats,crashes,toms etc...not kicks though).
"Nicely balanced and the bass has a presence that is just right" I agree im very pleased with the bass on this piece.
Thanks for your input on the vocal, i will do another sweep through the track to recheck the levels before the final export. Vocals and low frequency elements are always the hardest for me to control. Your feedback is very much appreciated ;)
Great job Woozy. You really improved this track. It sounds much better now. Every sound has its place and it makes this ound really stand out. Great production!
Hey mudhoen! Thank you 4 the support and for coming by to listen again. I can only thank you guys for the amazing help here, i very much appreciate it.
Super cool track you've done here! And I would have to agree about the breakbeat ties in here. I love some good breakbeat, and you've experimented and brought some modern influences in. I find many of the rhythms quite jazzy, which makes it all that much better! Kudos for the CC release as well! I noticed on your profile that you mentioned Genesis, and that made me happy... their work seems so under-appreciated these days. I've been watching a bunch of auctions for "ABACAB" vinyl lately, just can't decide what cover color variation to go for. I'm happy I listened to this track though! Faved and downloaded!
Thank you so much 4 the support! "I find many of the rhythms quite jazzy" I have a pack of Rex Loops that came with my Audio Interface most are jazz and other funky stuff, what i do is mash different rex loops into a unique loop , i'm surprised you noticed, you have good ears .
"Kudos for the CC release as well" Felt appropriate, since i'm using also freely available samples.
"you mentioned Genesis" Amazing tunes ;) and i have a very soft spot for 80's music, maybe because i was born in the early 80's, so it's kinda embedded in my brain.
"their work seems so under-appreciated these days" True.
"just can't decide what cover color " Good Album, I would go for Yellow, Green and Red simply coz it's my country's flag lol.
" I'm happy I listened to this track though! Faved and downloaded!" Thanks mate it does mean a lot, and helps me keep going.
Don't ever feel bad asking for some feedback, that's what we are here for, it is a pleasure to help you guys out, allows me to give something back for the help I receive here 6 years ago when I joined, plus I can learn more while helping out, you should check out the review I did for mudhoen earlier today, please do mate, longest review I have ever done on site lol...a novel...OK on to the track, on second listen, mate you have got this so MUCH better, have kicked volume right up with headset on for this second listen to see if any distortion, think you have nailed it now mate, I personally wouldn't change anything now my friend, good on my friend for keeping at it, pleased I could help in a small way to get this sorted for you, been enjoyable...If I could double fv I would...Like say please don't hesitate to ask via contact if you are stuck, if I can help, I will try my best...Peace n Respect friend...PS thank you for your thoughts in msg, means a lot mate...Just thought would have 3rd listen mate before posting review, this has come along in leaps and bounds...from here this is all GOOD...Mos...
Thanks Mos! I really appreciate all the feedback and the follow up. You really went out of your way to help out and as a result the track is a lot better so i very much thank for it. We all need feedback and if something sounds wrong is always good to know so it can be improved. I'm glad you feel it's good now, but you know for me it will never be quite right for some reason, it happens with most of my sounds lol, but i think i will leave it as it is for now. This has been fun, i learned a lot as always. If there's anything i can do for you just give me a buzz ;)
Back for another listen even looking at wave form you can tell it has less distortion, this so much better but still seems like a little distortion in some parts, I think it is more the choice of a synth?? or something like that, it comes in at the 58 seconds, everything from here sounds so much better but when that part comes in through out track, it does sound distorted, maybe it needs to go further down in the mix, or maybe it is not same key as rest of the track??? From this end personally I would remove it, as I don't think track needs it...Just my thoughts my friend, like said major improvement, on second listen now, yes believe that is what is causing the grief here, also I think the same problem at 58 sec mark is affecting the vocals coming through better in the mix...The piano that comes in at the 2.45 sec mark would sound great in place of what you have happening at the 58 sec point...Sorry friend to bring bad tidings...Like before mate if you change pls msg so I can come back again, like said last night this piece has so much potential to become a very nice piece indeed...Peace n Respect...Mosaic...
Hi brother! Thanks again for chipping in i really respect that. I think that the distortion on that synth was me pushing the distortion a bit too much, since i bounced it to audio (i do that a lot to save CPU as mine is weak) it's actually embedded on the sound it self, i will try to place the piano you mentioned instead to hear how it sounds, if all else fails i will probably redo that part of the track.
"Sorry friend to bring bad tidings" All you have done is help so no need for apologies or feeling bad about it, it's all good;) I'm not a pro and still have a lot to learn, my music is mostly experimental so i'm bound to fail ( until i get it right), no shame in that.
"Like before mate if you change pls msg so I can come back again" You're a legend honestly.
Fiest of all, great track. Very creative approach and it has a nice swing to it. Only thing is tghat the track is too loud. The instruments and voice are fighting for the frequencies. The bass is too loud and gives distortion. Lower it with an equalizer or put a limiter on it. I love this track and I believe after some few tweaks it will sound very hefty!
Mate very creative with this one, listening with head phones something I don't normally do when reviewing, as normally to lazy to go inside and get but for you I have done just that, to get a closer listen, there does seem to be a fair amount of distortion in the mix, making it sound a little muddy, not really sure what you have to do to fix the distortion, guessing others with more experience here would know for sure to help you out my friend,but reckon would lift track clarity a lot if you know how to adjust it, vocal sounds great, nice tone...As others have mention, could come to the fore a little more, as it does seem to get lost in some area's, don't know if that's because of the distortion?? Hats off to you friend on the arrangement, totally love it, great choice of synths, working extremely well with the beat and vocals...Please let me know via contact tab, when you sort this one out, as I would really love to hear it again, when it has adjustments made...Thinking this could be a very impressive track when right...Peace n much Respect WB...Mosaic...
Hi Mosaic! It's always good to hear from you, thank you for reviewing and i really appreciate you going a step further! After reading the comments i went on and tackled some of the problems this afternoon already, indeed there was quite a lot of distortion, i guess after listening to it so many times one stops being able to detect some problems, that's why is great that a site like this exists with people willing to help ;) Anyways I changed the intro and made a few changes here and there then mixed and mastered it again, after export i compared them and it's much better, is not so loud and feels more compact. I will upload it soon and will let you know. Thank you again for the feedback. Best Regards WB
Hello, This track very good, creatively laid out . Nice dance, however; your gain is too high that at the top end there is a distortion. Maybe it should be a touch lower this is my view though. Its great job though. Jamid
"This track very good, creatively laid out " Thank you, I'm happy that you like it.
"your gain is too high that at the top end there is a distortion" Thanks for the heads up :) i do use distortion on most of my sounds so maybe that's why? However i might have pushed that Limiter a bit too far, Dam Loudness War.
Thank you very much for you review and constructive criticism, i really appreciate that ;)
the vocal need to be abit higher some place it get low, and if you used reverb you should remove it, and the trak could be a bit higher volume. other then that i feel like running while i listen to this :D
Fantastic and instantly reminded me of The Alan Parsons Project. Doesn't particularly sound like him but same kind of vibe same kind of story telling. If you haven't heard of him he was one of the main producers and engineers of Dark Side of the Moon WITH THE Floyd.. If you aint heard of him he's done quite a few albumbs get a listen to this track ... I ROBOT. i THINK YOU'LL LIKE THIS GUY ....
This would be breakbeat in my opinion, but I don't think categorisation is so terribly important. All in all this is very nicely produced track and I believe there will be more:)
Thank you very for you input Orlando, much appreciated.
"but I don't think categorization is so terribly important" I agree, but is just good to know what it sounds like to others. For Example i would never have thought "Break Beat" and the reason why is that i usually don't listen to that genre, i have no idea about it's structure( although most electronic music is somewhat similar in that regard ) or what makes it tick. The idea of producing it was unthinkable to me.
"All in all this is very nicely produced track" Thanks I'm glad you think so ;)
Very nice track, telling a story...good clarity of the mix, sounds great from this end for sure, nice pads/synths used with a very good beat, has a touch of dance about this one...one of the better tracks heard here today doing reviews so far...impressive work matey...FAV...Peace n Respect...Mosaic...
