Pretty good overall. Gets a little repetitive towards the end tho. It needs one or two extra elements to spice it up, perhaps some high-end lead melodies. The production quality is ok but I definitely feel you should think about boosting some of the levels on the bass and pads. They're pretty quiet at the mo. Also, the beats need to sound a bit dirtier and roll a bit harder. But yeah, a decent tune overall.

hi there, some of the pads sund too much in the background - turn em up. nice flow with all the sounds, think that beat could roll a bit better to suit the rest of the tune.

agree with Tomos, needs more elements, some new sounds maybe a few extra melodies to give more personality, try n get a hook

good ideas Smile

When the vocal is played there are too many new elements. Save the vocal for the breakdown or something. It feels like the track never really takes off, needs more steam!

cool tune man

nice big kick and snare.

melodies are enjoyable. i think it could use some more bass.

electonic mid range sounds are really good. you should turn them up a bit.

cheers!

Sweet tune... Rolling enough to play in a club and chilled enough to relax to. Can't really find anyway to make it better, it's finished. I like the vocal you've used, fitting for the vibe. If you wanted to remix it, to give it a different feel, I could see that being very easy. There's a lot of good elements and nothing is too overpowering, you can tune into the different parts of the mix and hear everything clearly. If I had to be critical, the only thing I would say is it's not very original... But who cares? I will check out some more of your tunes, when I've finished writing reviews and got some of my own tunes on here, catch then...

sound intro and build up, pretty standard, drums are nice and clear, if a little repetitive after a while, more variation and some more layering of breaks could help them sound a bit more rolling, never really seems to take off this track, could be a lot more on drop, sub bass is pretty quiet, could do with boosting.
pretty well put together overall, lacking in bass imo and gets a bit repititive quickly, needs more elements and more oomph on the drop and the beats.

not feeling this i'm afraid. nothing stands out as "good".

mix is muffled and quiet and there is not enough elelments in the track to keep my interest, actually cant listen to the end.

sorry for the bad review just being honest.

try rework the mixdown (eqing), look up some mixing threads on the site.
