Please check out my new track 'Rags' and post your comments here!

I made this on reason 4, I got vocal samples from Free-Loops.com. I know how to put sounds down but am still learning even the simple tech. stuff so simpleton technical comments are easier to understand. All comments wanted, welcome and appreciated.

ez mate yeah i lap reason up,like the way u bend the notes up almost guitar like nod to the west coast,takes ages for the beat to come in maybe use some more breaks in the intro (hi pass em in dr rex )to keep peoples intrest, the hats that come in around 4 min should come into the mix earlier imo about 2 mins as it fills the track out more, its alright bit mellow for me.keep it up freddy- peace

intro takes a long time and kinda bores me after a while tbh..
nice pads though!
some nice work on the pitch there, has some eastern feel to it somehow. like itBig Grin
nice drum work, snare could be a bit more snappier to my opinion.
when the drums are playing it takes to long untill synth hits in.

the tune has some great potiencial (how ever you spell that word roflTongue )
but atm it's a bit boring, nothing really happens.

intro sound, filter some mid out it then distort it a little, that hig pitche synth is fuckin nice.
intro is really good in composition.
Drums are little dry, just layer them with some amen breaks, filter low frequencies out of those bbreaks, so you habe a thin raging layer above it. Bass has to much mid, just filter some around 3300-600 HZ, lower it.

Nice vocal, that vocals are nice, nice track.

not bad man, just get some more energy in thos drums, and lose some mids on that basy sound.

success

Pretty good, it's a bit to clear at some point that the drums were mostly done from single hits, it sounds a bit mechanical.
Structure is ok, melodies are good, sounds are good.
Just make some more tracks and things will improve automatically.

That intro noise is too loud and has a wide range of dynamics in it, it goes on my nerves honestly...
Nice synth melody.
Good atmo opening...
The drums need to be layered, punched and more dynamic...
Bassline is great.
Some change needed around 2:05min...but that is a matter of taste:-)
Try adding more hats around 3min, cause it comes the synth and the melody...
Excelent pad.
Nice preview, it needs to mixed proper and arranged.
Finish this one it has a lot of potential:-)

I agree with Age Break, Intro is too long, make it shortly.Best think for learning is to read some books about producing, or if you find on internet will be even better, also don't forget to learn music theory.Try to find book from music school in ur city.Because i don't find anything about music theory on internet.Nice tune some dark/sad liquid i like it.Big ups and keep it up.I would love to hear some other tunes by you too, in the future!

the reese in your intro, you made it with Thor right?
It'll sound better if you make it sustain fully.
but when the reese melody starts get it back to few sustain. it's cool as it is.
Minimal and i like it.

Intro is focking killer mate, really love the melody. You have good compositional skills. I'm more impressed by the intro than I am the body of the tune though tbh. Because the pad and the bass both play the same notes, it gets very repetitive. The vocal sample seems offkey and out of place.

The song really picks back up at 3 minutes! I enjoy the tune a lot more during the time when the leads and bass are playing at the same time, it is much more full and interesting!

Mate, let me tell you, if you beef up the drums and make the bass sick and growly, you'll have one hell of a tune. Keep working on it and push the tune as far as it will go!

I like it ! Its very atmospheric and peacefull. The lead synth reminds my the 80's,. I think just that the track is a little long.

But good vibes, and thats the important think !
