This is my first post in a while. I have been writing an EP that will soon be released and have had to keep those songs private. Here is my newest project 'Something About You'

I would love to hear everyone's thoughts and feedback as to how I did and if there is anything that could be improved.

Cheers

Sup man, just wanted to say I really enjoyed your track.
The echoey feel + your chords sort of resemble epic music and I think that's pretty cool in electronic stuff.
Tips would be to maybe change up your chords every now and then, and maybe even modulate, otherwise I thought it was very nice good job
Also you posted it under the genre Dance, which I think might need reciting.

I really appreciate that feedback And yeah, I realize that chord progression became a bit repetitive. Since I've never played an instrument and have 0 understanding of music theory, I sometimes have trouble "progressing" through a song.

This is my new song 'Don't Look Back.' When I hear listen, it reminds me of how far I have come in life and how I have all of my accomplishments have been made by looking forwards rather than backwards. I hope you guys enjoy it!

Feedback : What could I have done better or what do you like about it? Arrangement/mixing/musical feedback is very much appreciated here!!

definitely a cool start. A few things I noticed:

-I'd get a different kick sample. It doesn't seem to fit. But that could just be my ears.
-I think you need some more frequencies in the low mid area. Maybe another bass layer or low pad to fill out the sound.
-The low end could use a bit of control. Kinda tough at times to tell what's going on down there.
-it feels a bit narrow. I think it could definitely use more stereo width.

Musically I really enjoyed it! I think it could use some work in the mix category but it's dope!

on the treatment: Really cool ideas you have. That baseline is dope but it could be grungier and bigger! Overall I would say the track could use some more stereo width. The kick also gets lost in the mix. Partially because it isn't punchy enough. Also because you have a lot of chaos going on in the low end of the track. And sub on your kick gets munched by all the low end energy down there.

Cool ideas, keep up the good work!

Definitely some cool ideas here! One suggestion I would make: Try not to let the break get soooooo quiet. Dynamic range is a good thing but it felt like it needed to be turned up right when the break hit. Maybe increase the volume on the pad.

It also feels very narrow. Try adding some more stereo width to some of the elements. It definitely could use some more layers over all to make it feel "bigger."

Awesome start, keep it up!
