Melodic electronica in progress, BUT

hey there,



i’m working on my new project (called “white curtain”) but i’ve been told that it’s got the 80’s sounding which isn’t so cool… they couldn’t tell it why and i’m at a loss as well. is it the samples of the drumline? or the sound of the synths?



it’s not arranged completely, no master, just a rough mix with a loudness maximizer…



i could really use some fresh ears now… :cool:

Personally I didnt like the main synth melody or the trumpet…



The sub and groove are nice, I liked the heavy reverbed keys.

Cant really comment on what I would do with the track, sounds good overall, just the synth melody was slow and didnt really have an “emotional” impact like a melody should in electronica, the trumpet’ish sound I really disliked especially.



Good luck with this one, has potential!
