« on: January 07, 2016, 12:50:54 am »
So I finished this track, but I'm waiting to hear back from the artist to release it officially. For now, here's the private link. Any final feedback about the mix or the musicality is appreciated!

 Enjoy :)

Yooo Steven.  Hey, gave your tune a listen.  So (i am not speaking from a place of authority here, obviously) I think the mixdown could use a bit of cleaning to get the highs out where you want them and bring out a couple other things.  But besides that, things I love about this: your progression, your choice of varying timbres, you spacing (i love clean spacing of notes and rhythms), and your melody in general.  I think this is an amazing track and I really like you how you ended it.  You also kept the vocals really clean over the top and everything gels really nicely.

Overall great work, dude.  If you have any thoughts about your mixdown or whatever that you would like to share, feel free.  Keep up the good work.
I produce for Him.  Not me.

Thank you, sir. After I listen to my tracks so many times while working on them I can't tell how the mix sounds anymore lol. So I think I'll give it a few days and see what I think then.

Did anything seem too "boring"? or like it could have been more interesting, to you? I tried not to have much of a melody in the verse, to bring out the vocal more.

Ummmm, I don't think so, really.  I think there maybe could have been a little more variation in the drop and the subsequent repeats of that wobble with the arp over it.  But I liked that a lot so I didn't mind so much.  The vocal editing was sweet in the middle there.  And I think you did right by keeping it minimal during the verses.  I did notice that things may not be all locked in and quantized.  Which could help things pop a little bit more.  Wasn't sure if it was the percussion or the vocal not lining up exactly on the downbeat at times.

But despite my little qualms, I really do think it's a great track and I can tell you put a lot of time into it.  Really nice work.  Gotta let me know when it's officially released, man.  Would love to pick it up.

The thing that sticks out the post is the saws im really digging them a lot. My only piece of advice is to layer that snare or tighten it up a bit! overall its a brilliant tune!

It's actually just a snare & 2 claps. Maybe I will lower the clap to bring out the snare more. Thanks

wow.

nice track really, only thing to mention is that the drop lacks a bit of depth, which im used to have in a melodic dubstep track.
maybe try to use some fadeouts, reverse them, pan them, or add delays and reverbs and pan them out.

Yea I could definitely see that, I've been struggling to get that sort of depth, although I layer alot. Maybe better use of reverb & delay will help
