128 & 140 BPM Progressive
« on: March 16, 2016, 09:01:33 am »
I've been working on this for a couple nights now. This has probably been my project with the best productivity:time ratio. I'm still not really sure how it sounds relative to other tracks, so any feedback, as well as straight-up opinions, would be super rad. Thanks!

Cons:

- The repetition in the melody is a too much. Try for at least a little variation.
- The washy-ness that comes in at around 1:22 feels out of sync with the song. Its rhythm clashes with the rhythm of the melody, which throws off the song a little.
- Perhaps you should consider adding an ending? Not a huge issue, but I feel like the song ended a little suddenly. The song was building up nicely for a great deal of time, until it just dropped off in the end. Typically, that's not a good practice to have in your music.
- Throughout most of the second half, there's a little too much going on in the high end, especially for what (if I understand correctly) is supposed to be a deep-ish song. The amount of noise itself, for a short period of time, would not be much of a problem, but it gradually became harsher on my ears.

Pros:

- I like the mood it gives off.
- Also, the way the sounds evolved overtime was really good to listen to.
- The transition from house to dubstep (At least I thought it was dubstep) was pretty good.

Well, you're off to a good start, definitely. I think it's worth finishing.

Lastly: I'm not a very experienced musician, so if anyone else gives you feedback on this song that contradicts what I've said here, it's very likely that they're right and I'm not.
