Please check out my new track 'Deep Down' and post your comments here!
aight, so this is a more chilled tune, i wanted to keep it more simple. created this in fl 7, over last 2 days. its kinda complete, but unmastered...
looking forward to your reviews
Intro is too empty, not building up any tension for a long time and it sounds very dark compared to the main part of the track.
Composition is a bit on the thin side, it gets repetitive.

ye sounds good but the intro seems to go on for ever-not much goin on in it-think u should defo add more stuff, possibly sound fx/melody or summin (at the latest) on 32bars.the beat sounds pretty fat to me-like the kik but would prefer bit more snap in the snare n would prfer a sort of preview of the beat in the intro if u no wot i mean.with more variation this could be a good track-fair play keep workin on it-safe
I agree it's weird there's a minute long nothing that happens... I like the drums, but the variations you're trying to get by adding these offbeat snares, are sounding a bit strange. the added snares should be less loud than the main snare and have a bit more "schwung". add some variations to keep it interesting.
This tune definitely needs more action. It's much too sparse at the moment. I do like the Goldie-like synth melody that starts up around 1.50. The other synth melody around 3.00 is good too. Vocals are pretty good as well. But the whole things lacks oophm. You should definitely think about beefing up those beats, perhaps by layering them with something with more oophm and rollyness.

definatly a more minimalistic sort of tune but it builds up really well after the first 32 bars or so. the intro however is very empty and needs something else in it,(maybe more fx or some synth patterns).
would like to hear a little bit more variation later on and possibly some changes in the beats mabye layering some perc. on top. you could go for a key change in the bass and pads. the bass is one of the most repetative things mabye put some changes in the phrase at the end of every 8 or 16 bars.
nice tho, i can see this being a good track if it was tweaked a bit.

thanks a lot for the reviews guys, really apreciate the advices. im working on the tune, trying to fill out the intro and making more changes throughout the track. but yeah, its supposted to be a bit on the minimalistic side
anyway, i think a new version will be available in a week...
the hats in the intro are very robotic could do with a bit of swing in them. love the pads and the vocals. this tune has an ols skool feel to it. i like it.
