Hey guys, new to this forum so hopefully done everything right - I'll definitely offer my feedback as much as possible, I'm a mod on a mashup feedback site (mashstix) but they aren't so good at helping with remixes and original music so I've joined here to hopefully advance my music  :D

Anyway, here's the link to my WIP remix:
http://picosong.com/KjmW/


Any and all feedback is most welcome - I can take harsh feedback (should have heard my first few mashups I used to make.. ouch!  ;))
Especially in terms of mixing/mastering, oh and ignore the end - didn't do an outro/ending yet.  :)


Thanks!

I love this song! it used to be my alarm for school.

When the vocals come on they sound like they're fighting the synths to be heard though. Are you working with an acapella or the master track?

And it'd be awesome if you had a build up after the hook and it went "num I ye ye ye ye #stuttery thing ye# then a big drop! Lol idk, if that makes sense but it sounded cool in my head. Anyway, can't wait to hear more. Keep me posted, man. :)

Thanks!

I'm working with the pella - though it's rather off to work with as, even with a tonne of reverb, it still sounds quite dry. I'll increase the prominence a bit so it's less drowned out :)

Hmm I think I get what you mean with your idea, I'll try see if I can get anything good to come form it - thanks for the suggestion!

Good sidechaining! You show good craftsmanship.
However, do you think you could try to make the lead play something else while he's singing? Unison is nice, but it's a bit boring.
I'd go with an arpeggio, or a chord progression.
I'm sorry if I sound dumb. Eargasm does that to people.
