Nice ambience and overall feel. Too much focus on the mids in the mixdown.

i'm glad you enjoy the overall feel,i need to improve more my mixdown skills.thank you.

pretty cool, but not something i'd come back to. i'm not a huge fan of house (?) but i am a big fan of chilled out music. to me there's a lot of high end content from the cymbals and vocals and i honestly just get rly tired out from how much high spectrum content there is and how high (vol) it's been pushed up in ur mix.

not a househead so i can't give 'constructive' solutions but my brain just gets weird signals when on the second drop i hear even more high Hz content with the addition of more cymbals... aaaAAAhhh it hurts the ears.

the chord prog is like.. Am --> C --> F ? something like that. let's look at the notes of each

Am = A C E
C = C E G
F = F A C

really stagnant!!! there's so many commons between the two... very little movement musically which is kinda bad because i have to listen to a 5min loop of just i --> III --> VI which is not very chill at all because as soon as i hear it i get bored lollzzzzzzzz


--

personally i am comparing ur track to an old fav of mine i saw played live about 5months ago
https://soundcloud.com/porsches/horses

very chill - very clever play and movement with the textures - chord prog of (Bm) i --> VII --> iv --> III (probably something wrong here like them all being 7th chords or whatever but i dont care) which although repeated all the way through has a constant tug of tension release through downwards step motion chordally, and im really happy to just listen to this forever because there are so many interesting things that just pop up which are intentional composition/production decisions. great tune


hopefully that wasn't too much and i can't wait to be destroyed by people reading this lmao

best of luck with the future tunes

*edit - i listened to this on laptop speakers while lying down on my bed - probably the most chill way to experience music

First of all,thank you so much for take the time to listen to my song,i really apreciate it.

I just read all your comment,and you really open my eyes,is now where ir realise this could be a better work... for real,i'll give my 110% effort in my next song

No worries man,your comments actually help me a lot,hope you can give me more feedback the next time !

PD:I really like your tune :)

Funny, how vinyl noise always catches my ears and my attention.

I like the build up at the beginning but maybe you should add something between 1:00 and the part where the kick comes in.

There's another long break starting @ 2:40 and I think that's great, nothing missing, building tension.

The drums/percussion sounds mellow and suits the song very well, this is chillout, not a dancefloor filler.

Nice work!!
Thanks !

Sounds good,but kind of it need more stereo widening,also,more brightness on the high frequencies,the song reminds me of Rudimental !

I won't put this song into the trance realm,i think it's more in the electro house realm,but anyway,it sounds pretty good for the time you say you have producing ! Congrats,you have improve a lot in that time.

I think you could paning some stuff,i feel like everything it's in the center of the stereo spectrum,so you can improve more in that are of the mix.

Keep it up !

I really like it ! The way you complete the harmony and introduce all the new elements was great.

I feel like you can improve more the bass by making a sidechain to the kick,also i think you can add more brightness on the high frequencies (this could be make on the mastering chain).

But overall,it is a really great song.

Man this is really cool,very inspiring,i could like to hear more after the song finish so fast...but anyway,really good work with the stereo ambient,i see you know how to play with reeverb and paning.

Good job :)

The main chords leads reminds me of the Anjunabeats and Enhanced rec. style,really like the amount of details that you put into the song,the way you introduce new elements it's just fine.
