Hey SA. I’m back from quite a long hiatus in music so I was eager to get a new tune going to shake the rust off. This one is just about finished up but I wanted to get some criticism/feedback on it. I wanted to make sure I’m keeping interest without having too much going on and I was also looking on some tips to mix/EQ.
Comments/Feedback/Criticism is much appreciated
(I can’t figure out how to embed the SC widget/player, advice on that would be awesome)
-The drums could use some more power, take a look into parallel compression (compression on a return track added into the drums, thus no loss of original drum dynamics but added weight and power) to add some extra depth and fatness to them.
-Transitioning of sections could be a bit less abrupt, so perhaps add more drums fills and breaks as well as delay/reverb/flanger/chorus leading up to a new section.
-Perhaps add a bit of stereo width to the bassline to fill it out a bit more (delay with left and right channels both set to time instead of sync. left channel 1 ms, right channel 8ms) - adds a lot of oompth!
Wow awesome feedback thank you! It’s nice to get specific comments on what to work on :D So far it’s sounding much better, I widened the bass a bit and added the parellel compression to the drums. Both are much chunkier now! The little one is ready for bed and so am I so I’ll be working on the transitions and redoing the levels tomorrow night and over the weekend. Thanks again, man, I really appreciate it :)
Ok here’s the “final” mix. Added a few drum fills and elements to fill it out and thickened up the drums and bassa bit. Feedback/criticism welcome and appreciated! Thanks :w00t:
