hi guys :)

i've posted a few wips on here and i always get really great advice and tips, leading to an even cleaner final product. that being said, i figured i'd throw this little beat that i've been working on up here too, to see if there's any advice that you could give me. thanks so much for listening and giving me some of your time. i really, really appreciate it.

also, harsh feedback is welcome. it leads to the best results!

WIPs / ambient, anime inspired wip
« on: March 02, 2016, 07:27:17 pm »
hi guys :)

started this wip the other day, would LOVE to get critical feedback so i can turn it into something better. don't be afraid to get super nit-picky, that kind of criticism is the most helpful i think.

thanks so much!

Mixing/Mastering / Antiphase....?
« on: February 25, 2016, 01:00:22 am »
Hi everyone :)

Just wondering if anybody has good advice on how to control antiphasing in your production, or even just more information on exactly what it is and why it exists. I've been searching the internet before I asked here, and I've only found a few sources that give some good information on it. Would love to hear if anybody else has experience with it and how to deal with it in your own work.

Cheers :)

Finished Tracks / things could be different (hip hop beat sampled from a DS game)
« on: February 21, 2016, 05:51:27 pm »
hi guys :)

i made this short little song out of a sample from my old 3DS (because i'm literally one of the most uncool people you know). it's far from being perfect, but i'm happy with the way it turned out and thought i would share it with you guys.

would love constructive criticism and feedback, thanks for listening :)

WIPs / i'm making this song out of a sample from my 3DS lol
« on: February 16, 2016, 11:08:40 pm »
hi guys :) i have this WIP here that i think has potential, but i feel like it's missing something. maybe it needs a tighter mix (well it definitely needs that), maybe i need to add something a bit more tangible to the progression, i'm not exactly sure.

would love and appreciate it if you guys were to give me some feedback on what you think and what could improve the track as a whole.

thanks so much!

Mixing/Mastering / Mixing resonant percussion into your track
« on: February 12, 2016, 04:30:29 pm »
Hi guys :) so I have a quick question for anyone who is better and more knowledgable at advanced mixing than I am (which is probably a lot of people).

In a few different wips I start i often find myself being drawn to interesting percussion sounds like bells, tambourines, or more exotic sounding hits. the issue that I seem to be running into is that these types of elements seem to make my spectrum analysis become pretty rough looking. This happens even when I find the element to sit well in the mix and be cohesive with the rest of it all.

Just to give a bit more detail, the issue isn't resolved just by lowering the EQ at the specific frequency because the percussion loses it's flavor with that specific band. The resonance coming from that specific frequency range is what makes the sample interesting.

My question is, should these elements be mixed so that the spectrum looks smoother? Or should it not be too much of an issue if it pops out of the range a bit in a frequency band? I know the ultimate test if whether it sounds good or not, but I'm wondering if there's an issue that I can't pinpoint because my ears aren't trained well enough (I'm no pro at this).

Hopefully that wasn't too hard to follow. Thanks guys!

edit - here's a direct link to the wip I'm trying to mix: https://soundcloud.com/tatsumiport/wip-clip-poet-and-i-didnt-even-know-it

Finished Tracks / city lights remix :) - japanese hip hop (i know this is weird)
« on: February 09, 2016, 06:22:51 pm »
hi everyone :) so i'm pretty new here, but i figured i would post this anyway, because i really value this communities opinion and feedback. i know this track is pretty niche, and certainly not for everyone, but i would be honored if anyone would take a listen anyway and offer up some feedback on what i can improve on in the future so i can continue to progress (:

thanks so much for checking it out!
