Need opinions with this finished track,how i mixed,the structure…br
Please listen and post your opinions
Hey there,br
br
Overall i feel like its well-mixed. elements mesh well but are still clear. Sounds a bit too harsh to my ears. Seems like the lowend could use with a bit of clean up, I feel like the bass is a little light, but maybe taming the highs will even that out. im not on the best system to judge the super lows well at the moment.br
br
br
I feel like the structure could be refined a bit. I think you could easily do with a break in the center section because it kinda feels like it goes on a bit too long for my taste. I like the vibe overall, but I kinda feel like it could use more drive to bring it through, maybe a mid-low bass layer with some 16ths to put in some energy?br
br
good work
hibr
br
thanks for the tipsbr
br
yes the music its long, maybe im going to change it a bit
Good on you for putting your own track together, it kind of reminds me of something from Goldeneye 007 for the N64 around the 1:30 to 2:00 mark, maybe its that synth that starts @ 0:47 playing that c minor pattern…br
br
The best advice I can give is working on your mix, the FX are a bit too loud and the percussion gets a bit lost in the sound. Also again it seems like that c minor pattern is your ‘main theme’ or riff for this track, so I would try to make that the focal point of the mix, try to build everything up to and around it, volume and arrangement wise. And have a few sections that alternate back and forth kind of like what you did from 2:00 to 3:00, then breakdown and bring the ‘theme’ or riff back in, intro and outro, etc…br

Good work making a track from start to finish, that is hard enough. Continue doing tutorials and it’ll start getting easier… Keep up the effort :Dbr

Boss.
the few things that stand out for me is the clash of keys. - The Synth that enters in at 2min : 10s im not sure if its just me, but it sounds like it’s maybe not in the same key as your track?br
br
there seems to be quite a few different ideas going on in the track. i would maybe distill it down a bit - or drop out other elements when you are introducing new parts. - perhaps make use of a drop / build up section to tease the new elements in?

thanks for your tipsbr
wonder where is that part that reminds you the br
Goldeneye 007 for the N64?br
i heard the theme song from the game but i can find something similar…br
br
anyways thanks for your tips

br

br
the synth you mentioned,problably youre right because is a sequenced arpeggiator synth…br
so maybe its not in the same key
