Nice atmosphere and musicality, no crits.

I got a much better mic and re recorded the singer (still a cheap preamp mind you)

Still needs fx and fills and finishing touches

If i was doing it again i would get the double tracking tighter

any critical feedback gratefully received

This is the first tune ie made in this style but enjoying so far

Chris



Incredible mix mate, I wouldn't change much about this as it has the right vibe, nice n chill.


Posted by Richard Butler on Jan-21-2014 22:43:

I really am going to find a decent vocalist for this one.

Can you advise me if I need to vary up the main synth sounds and perhaps also the way the main riff is played at certain points?

its not bad Richard, i was comparing it to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWYeGHETCSI
and maybe your track lacks a little depth in comparison? obviously you dont have a vocal yet which would make a huge difference

should point out im listening on my ue boom so cant say much about bass etc..

Cool track.
The kick needs more punch imo.

Great pointer mate.

Having listened back today the sub isn't nearly present enough and I will be adding variation to the synths / drums and adding some stutters etc.

Biggest issue will be getting the right vocalist, not too mention making the vox sound propa!

This is really nice clean work Chris also nice dynamics and sound separation which is important (a specially in this style). As far as some FX, fills and finishing touches (as you mention already), would definitely help this track overall attractiveness - sweet work man !!!

Very nice and slowly unwinding story right in front of you effect - really cool man.

I'm net really sure if I would be able to give you any constructive idea or even a criticism on how/what to do next as this already sounds pretty good to me.

One of the cleanest and best work so far from you Caleb.

It sounds good Richard, you are on the right track with this production man. I would increase a bit this field of you sounds depth (instruments spread) for improving listening attractiveness but as evo8 mention already your vocal would help you in this area massively.

Me like it

Thanks chris marsh, evo8 and Caleb for your opinion on my WIP.

So after some thinking and analyzing in depth this melodic development idea, I just release that I have to completely reconstruct/rebuild this track from ground up to the top.

So here we go some blend of Trance and Electro:

Great warm synths as ever and a good track, plenty of energy.

For me to work properly on the floor, needs slightly more attitude.

I will provide that attitude for you Richard, no problem but first I need to deal with vocal lol - nice to have your opinion man thank you

Cheers,

Harmonic stuff, I like. Sine part is pretty cool too.
Percussion-wise it's really weak, dry and boring. I also would like to hear some background drones and ambient weird quirky sounds, just to keep it interesting.

I really, really think this needs to be drier. The kick needs to be more powerful and the bass needs more space. It doesn't move forward for me.

I am hearing the potential for some kind of arps with delay on the high end. Hard to describe but that is what comes to my mind. As far as varying the main synth and riff, I personally would leave it just to keep it simpler since it sounds good already.

Normally I like your sound design and mixing lots but this one sounds off to me, especially after 45 seconds. The bass is the main problem I think. I don't find the underlying music all that exciting either.

Electro-Trance TEASER (DariusX - IGNORANCE) by DariusX.

Richard Butler, Deillon, Seandroid, Trancelover03591 - thank you guys for your time and effort, appreciate

Point is well taken guys - It is my fault to not communicate this properly lol as this was only dry melody layout to try to see if vocal would be able to work properly in this environment - I know that there is probably some technical issues with this WIP and they would be taking care of in the next stage of development but what is worrying me the most is the fact that (as Trancelover03591 mention in his comment) melody is not catching the attention the way I wish it would so I will have to rethink this idea one more time and see if I can make some necessary adjustment to make it sound right.

Thank you all one more time - your comment/s always counts guys

Cheers,

Darek

I hope I'm not breaking any rules, haha seeing as this is my first post here ...


Not sure what it is exactly about this mix. If I where to change
things myself I'd start with tightening the reverb and delay on the saw that comes in.
It seems too bright IMo. The track has this bouncy vibe that kinda clashes with the later parts.... I could be crazy but this is just IMHO.

I've actually been following you for a while on soundcloud. Hahaha
not much I would change, if anything. Some parts seem empty to me
but that's if I search really hard for a critique.

Nice vibe! Very chilled. not my normal cup of tea but i like it

I really like the kick, nice and punchy but unobtrusive and still kind of light. It sits nicely with the sine sub.

That vocal sample is really nice and leaves me wanting more - but then towards the end of the track you get more

I always try and give some constructive crit as i find that the most useful:

I think you could have some more fx and stuff in the background to fill out the space a bit more

I would like a little bit more variation in percussion. Could maybe layer up the percussion a bit more, add a ride, etc

I wouldn't mind a little bit more drive personally? like maybe some parallell comp on the drums

Cool vibe with the keys

really need to watch your sub imo, theres too much down there, at times, giving a muddy overall mix

Also sounds like your sub is in stereo? and doing some panning or phasing at some point
As a rule your sub should be in mono, and also normally be a pretty simple synth sound

But then there are other parts where the sub and kick sound quite tight, then it gets a little out of hand!

Also another general rule that works quite a lot, is keep most everything apart form the kick and sub out of the 200hz and below range, so high pass everything else


I really like the break with the keys, cool vibe!

good creative ideas in there imo just work on the delivery etc

Does sound a bit like lots of percussion loops stuck together at one point!
