Yea, just about done!  good tension building and good idea. main melody is simple yet effective.  but it could have a better rhythm.  not a drastic change or anything but I would just experiment with it more.  the sample you used for the snare buildup kind of stands out in a bad way because it could be better.  drums are pretty good too.  I would try to create some sort of contrasting melody or counter melody that compliments the main pluck. anyways good job!

I have to say man, I can definitely hear your improvement. I know we've shared feedback a few times and you've improved immensely since I last listened to your stuff.

The most glaring thing I noticed was the drop pluck. It needs more layers. Think along the lines of Arty - Flashback. Add some lower super saw layers underneath.

Also, I would say make those pumping pads that you have underneath louder and wider. They could definitely stand out more.

For your breakdown pluck, I would recommend the same thing. Maybe another layer or two. I have been obsessed with using layer upon layer lately even for smaller sounds like that and it can go a loooong way in the sense of creating space.

Keep it up man!

Ps. if you wanna put in some feedback for meh https://theproducersforum.com/index.php?topic=2712.0 :)

It's good, but a little too cookie cuttery. Needs something that makes it unique yaknow? I like the sounds and such, they sound great! What he said above about adding a layer onto the pluck is a great idea.

But the master on this one needs lots of work. I really suggest you put in a bunch of time and learn to master. It'll help you A TON in the long run and I know for a fact that you will enjoy your own tracks more when they're well mastered. :)
