My friend works in a professional studio, so he'll be mixing it down himself for free.

Brace yourself. The "XXX's engine sounds better than YYY's engine" discussion is comming.

LOL Dude they all sound the same lmao

The intro to Colonia reminds me a lot of Pryda, same kind of bass/bassline. When it gets to the main part, it sounds really dark. The nice sounds you add in there just make it perfect to listen to at a club, afterhours.
Stairways sounds more EDM-ish, aimed for the mainstage. I could see Steve Angello dropping this in a festival/club set. It's just pure straight up energy, we need more tracks like this.
Definitely enjoyed your EP man, downloaded the tracks, will use them in my live sets!

What makes me different as a producer is the melodies, the chords, and emotions I put into my productions. The thing that I bring to the table is my experiences throughout my life, I've gone through a lot of negative moments, but instead of letting those moments go to waste, I express them in my productions. Every chord, melody, idea I have reflects/references different moments in my life. That roller coaster of emotions I've experienced the last 10 years allows me to create music that uniquely reflects who I am.

I used to be very into playing instruments. I played clarinet in middle school, and before I quit playing I was playing college level orchestra music, Mozart's clarinet concerto: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3EJqvKhYzY
There came a point in which I felt that the clarinet required too much discipline, so in 7th grade I decided to play saxophone and double bass. In 7th grade jazz band, I played double bass, it was really challenging! I actually was pretty small compared to the bass, but I spent many hours practicing to get my hands adjusted to it and know where every note was. So I did that, played double bass and bass guitar up into 10-11th grade, at that point I discovered deadmau5, and as you can guess, I decided that I was going to spend all my time invested in FL studio. And now I'm here, producing all kinds of stuff...it's been a fun ride, wouldn't trade it for anything else in the world

Wow...I really enjoyed this tune. It's very emotional, ambient, you created a atmosphere with it. What's your soundcloud man, I wanna follow you

Alright, so it seems you're trying to make a old style rap/hip hop or trap beat. What I first recommend doing is coming up with a chord progression, and decide on the key signature. The one you have I can't really tell what key it is, but load it up on a piano so you can hear the actual notes. Then, from there, try to add variation every 8-16 bar phrase near the end, so the listener doesn't get too used to it. If you don't know key signatures, read up some music theory on the basic scales. It'll really help you figure out what key you want to make it in, go off what you feel
