Finished Tracks / 50 Cent - Candy Shop (Craaze Remix)
« on: April 04, 2017, 11:55:58 am »
Hey guys,

after a long time I finally finished my latest track. It's a Twerk remix of 50 Cent's "Candy Shop" and the first of my tracks that I actually feel really comfortable with playing in clubs. Of course I'd also like to have some feedback from others which is why I decided to share it with you. Whether it's just a statement how you like it or suggestions for improvement, I'm looking forward to hear it!

Not only well-produced, but it also sounds nice and has a good melody!

I really like it, it goes pretty hard and has a nice buildup. Only thing I would change is the volume of the kick drum in the intro (and outro), it seems a bit too loud to me. In the drop, it sounds alright though!

I think it depends on the feel of different parts of your track. For mellow, relaxed and peaceful stuff like Tycho's, having a sphere of white noise in the track does the right thing. Sometimes, though, it doesn't really fit. Especially when you really want to stress a certain element in your arrangement, whether it's a vocal part or the first bars of the drop. I think the best way to find out when it's beneficial and when it isn't is too experiment. It definitely connects to the track's mood and energy.

Hi guys,

I'm sure I'm not the only one stuck with this question. I'm experiencing the following dilemma.


1. I want to produce only the fullest, fattest layered soundscapes and blow everyone's minds with them.

2. I have 4 GB RAM.


Ideally, I'd have to do a lot of freezing and bouncing or resampling while working on a track, but for me it just feels like a huge obstruction of the workflow to do this. If I want to tweak something afterwards, I'd need to keep the old MIDI track which is sort of contraproductive when it comes to saving CPU. Plus, I don't like removing my sidechain tools from the channels and putting them back afterwards, they don't feel right at the end of the (new) effect chain.
On the other hand, my CPU can't handle the layers at a certain point and starts crackling, which sucks as well.


This is why I've decided to start this thread. I'd welcome all your statements to this subject, whether they are "just suck it up and start bouncing your channels" (deep inside myself, I already know it's the right thing to do) or other things. Maybe you have found a method to layer sounds while keeping your own shitty RAM in line. Maybe this will just turn out to be a huge self-help group for people who weren't blessed in the RAM department.

Enlighten me!

I really like the feel of this track! Nice, long but to-the-point intro. I really like the melodies. Personally, I expected/hoped for the drop to have more melodic elements, to explode in a firework of synths and arps and tastefully placed white noise and all that. But I guess it's a matter of taste. Good job  :)

Hi, fellow producers! I've recently finished a remix for a fellow artist and I'm excited what you think about it since there's a lot of know-how present in this community.
