great potential, i wanted the pads to kinda come in and lift the whole track up
the first 2 bass notes in the sequence really set the tone

Originally posted by Vernon Wanderer I think I'm actually almost done with this one(first one in 2 years!) Took care of the bass and replaced the kick, clap and bass. Any thoughts appreciated!

not a fan of kicks like that, plenty of click but no oomph

I will do some feedback tonight, but in the meantime here's a banger for ya. REally went for the break melodies.

Originally posted by Vernon Wanderer After producing for a commercial EDM group for a while, I lost the will to live and got a huge writers block for two years. I'm now trying to get back in but I'm having a hard time escaping the 4 chord pop progression formula. This is what I came up with lately, there isn't much going on yet, I can't think of a lead. Any opinions on both the mix and the musical idea would be greatly appreciated!

Nice flowing quality - looking forward to a lead being added - I think a wanderimg complex arp

I really like this one, it would make great film score stuff -something moody with a guy driving through the night

Originally posted by evo8 thanks dude! something like this for the sub note: i boosted the drums at 80hz to give the kick a bit more oomph - also sent the drums to some very short reverb - 4K compressor on the master just to even everything out a tad

Wow

Id love to remix this take you got going on here - by which I mean add some synths/ vox etc

Yeah, I can see that scenario.

As luck would have it, this will be coming out soon-ish as a part of a 3-track EP.

I love that strange, quirky melody, but the percs might be a bit too generic to go with it.
