Please check out my new track 'Got 2 Go' and post your comments here!
safe every1.this a jump-up track i bin workin on the last few days-nearly finished i fink.ne comments/critisiscm on mixdown an tune in general is appreciated.cheers
Intro:
Maybe too much reverb/processing? Everything sound kinda far away. It'd be nice to get the drums pumping through harder and clearer.
The first drop moves too easily into it. It could use a larger more intense build before the bass comes in. I like the notes and feel of your bassline, but it also kinda feels like it not punching through. Maybe you need to eq each part better? Maybe taking your base sound and separating the high end and widening the stereo field of the high end while leaving the low mono.
The hihats throughout sound too clean. I'd put some distortion on them and then run and effect over them with sine to give them some movement.
I have a feeling you play this loud over and over and so your ears get used to it and it sounds good. You should try listening at lower volume, (if you aren't). I was just listening to N-Vee's track Run away and it's got a much cleaner sound. It doesn't have that far away feeling. I'm just using that as an example.
Anway, just trying to help. I know it's hard to go back and rework all the eq when you feel your done, but I think it would be worth it.
I really like what you've done with this track sounds awesome mate love the basses. sick. Definitely could see me bouncin to this mate well done sounds solid.
ez man, mix sounding ok generally speaking, not sure about the hats that come in around 1:10 don't quite seem to fit with the amen break, beat could have a bit more punch, apart from that likin the bass textures n edits r nice as well!
safe-ye, 1 thing i wasnt to sure of was the punchiness of my drums-cheers subinfector sum helpfull advice there-defo think need sum more tension n anticipation in the intro n kno wot u mean bout the track not sounding very 'bright'-i dont put anything on my master channel.ne advice how to get that sorta clear,sorta shine 2 a tune?
if u kno wot i mean).
an n-vee, glad ur feelin this 1 mate-comments well appreciated! n kno wot u meanin bout the hats ketz-jus tryed them like that cus on the offbeat but defo think will re-arrange them to flow with the beat better.safe 4 all comments
good general mix. drums are thin but that has been covered. like the bass, bit of a twisted indivual sound to it. not sure about the bass fill around 1.45 i would change it as well as the new bass melody in the secon section around 2.10. i think you have changed key as well which is hard to put in a dnb track wih out out it sounding like you have mixed in a new tune. try making a new melody in the same key and new bass. a good trick for creating new parts in atune is to load up the same main synth patch or sample onto a new channel then manipulate it so that you get a new sound with similar characteristcs to the first. the new sound should generally fit well with the first for a new section.
alrite mate likin this 1 the amen fits in there nicely ay i think to get that bit more outa ur bass as far as punchiness try puttin sum more top end in and a little less attack just my opinion bit more masterin and would be wicked track mate nice 1
the track sounds very wet man the drums seem to loose impact because of it. turn the reverb time down or the predelay up a bit so the hits have chance to come through a bit. bass is ok. but im not big on jump up
so i cant really comment much farther
