Future Trap - Gellaitry Style
« on: April 18, 2016, 12:27:49 am »
Future trap vibessss. Been making tons of different sub genres of future lately and this little one popped out. Will def be the next one I finish. Enjoy it! Not modeled after anyone, I just think it has some gellaitry style vibes.

This is dope! Reminds me of playing mario 64 many moons ago. The synths after the drop are too loud and aren't letting the drums come through. Turn them down some, eq the low and high end then maybe try a side chain.

Very awesome though, it brang me back and made me feel some type of nostalgia. Keep at it!  ;D

I really like the intro sounds, though I'd widen them a bit. The snare is pretty good that you have, I'd maybe add a touch more reverb though.

WOW, I was NOT expecting that change at 0:37, but I really like it! I think it may need more mid section like an additional pad in there to fill the space, but it's a really cool idea! For example, when those gorgeous arps come in at 0:49, there's nothing accompanying them to give the track more flow...do you know what I mean?

Here, I'll give you an example. In Kasbo's track "Kaleidoscope", the arp in the main drop has enough accompanying it and it acts as a means to fill space as well, as opposed to an outright lead. Here's the track for reference, the arp I'm referring to comes in at 1:40:
Other than that, I agree with carlitoNthecokefactory - the lead is a bit too loud and drowns out the kicks, but it's a solid track so far! :)

Hey guys! Thank you for both the feedback and the positivity! Means a lot to me! I took the feedback and re-worked a sidechain and eqs.

The original link above is now updated with my new version, so check it out again!

Also I added a very slight LFO to the opening pad to give it a little bit a flavor, but still mellow.

Let me know what you guys think! Haven't pushed forward yet with composition as I want to get this section nailed first.

Seriously, thank you. :)

I know that track very well. Kasbo is a beast.

So you're saying layer in another synth over what's already pre-existing? I could try that. I'll do that and give it a listen and see how it sounds. Thank you for the suggestions and compliments man!
