i think that the vocal is too loud compared to everything else.. maybe a lil more EQ needs to be done on the vocal, its sounds lil muddy so u might wanna cut the low frequiencies and up the highs a lil bit. the melodies are hella nice.. its chill. but with a touch of attitude.. vert nice i like the beat that came in at 1:40.. that is nice with everything working together.. i think now all that is left is the mastering and sum lil EQ.. just to give it that pro sound.. good job man

very nice from the off.

But i think you've done some odd compression on the master of something. When the vox come in things sound like they are ducking out.

really like the synth work with the melodies, it all sits together very nicely.

the beat is quite nice, but think it lacks a bit of oppmh, it sounds quite natural tone wise which i dont think works with the synthy nature of the track.

Layer in some drum machine hits over the snare and kick and i reckon they would fit the track better whiles also giving the kick more depth and the snare more crispness.

great track though. love the vibes. Good work Bigup

Hi mate. Thanks for the review you did Happy

Vocals sound a bit loud and have a bit to much mid.

I can hear some ducking going on, like someone else mentioned. I get the same problem when I used the sidechaining in Reason. I find that sometimes you are better of just sidechaining out the relevant frequencies instead of the whole bass or synth sound.


Some real nice melodies here. Nice little progressions going on. You are maybe over doing the filters on some of it though.

Enjoyed it Happy

If it stays off you could use Antares autotune to fix it or use it for vocoding and play the correct note on the synth you modulate with it.

Tune is nice but the vocal is too loud at times and the vocal needs to be more at the same level so compression could help.

Some filtering manipulations (sweeping bandpasses) sound unpleasant to the ears. You seem to boost some very present frequencies which causes a temporary boost. A limiter could avoid this.

Drums should be louder.

really liked the tune, musically some great ideas man, however again the processing is a little off, once you get that right i think you will be sorted because clearly you have good musical understanding and the tune really wants to come through think the energy has been killed a bit with compression here though. i would mess with the attack and release settings to find somethin that works better with the track. great tune though keep tweakin till its done man

The vocals are alright. Maybe they can use some more work, maybe a different reverb to put them in the background more. Cheers.

Contextually very good. I like the beat and the main lead sample. You've have made it interesting with lots of hfo effects and drum fills. The only thing I would say is that you've applied the filters to the whole audio output which seems fairly basic from the listeners point of view. Perhaps maybe just do it to the vocal sample, kick and snare. Also it's pretty much the same thing over and over 'here I go all over'. I know you have a bit of contrast after she finishes singing, but I think you need to spice up the main beat as well and maybe have a dirtier mid/lead section when the main vocal sample is playing. Much better than what I'm producing at the moment though. Good job.
