the intro is super weak, i just came up with the main part of the song and slapped something on at the beginning lol. And thanks! ill continue you it when i get back home.


also, did you think the bass was too loud? i cant decide if its to loud, on some speakers it sounds fine but on others its obnoxiously loud.

I think the bass is good where its at.  On some systems I can see where it may sound too subby.  so, if you really wanna work on it more, try to take away some of the subbiness and make room for a little more kick sub to penetrate through the mix and it might make a positive difference  :D

The kick/bass relationship is so important and its something I try to practice all the time.  the kick/bass relationship in this track is good, but not great.  Also, the main lead with heavy reverb is awesome and its what makes the track obviously.  I still think you can make it sound cleaner so that all of the other instruments can have more room  8)

You need more breathing room and silence between parts and among your melody.

It sounds like a run on sentence.

Intro is pretty weak as well.

I saw your title or w/e, i think you need to balance you reverb with the dry setting better. look into bus effects, auxiliary channels, or send returns. <----all the same thing but compatible with most daw terminology.

it can be cleaned up a bit more

i did have a intro made for this song but i felt like it didn't transition well with what you hear now so i took it out. Ill upload the older version today.

as far as cleaning it up, i used about 5 sends with effects to make and control the lead so cleaning it up shouldn't be to hard either. in the second half the song it does tend to run on. the idea was to use stereo effects to have the sound move "behind" the listener but it didn't turn out very well so ill either fix it or take it out.
