That's a good idea to erase it.

[sergiobR1]

i don't know what u mean with that, but the idea is to find a good label so... will be erased until then.

cheers.

Nothing, I was just teasing you.

To come back to your track, i would say that your kick need to be much more deep and powerful. Or maybe you could add some sub. Obviously it's a track with little variations, it's meant to be hypntotic and "dancable", so i think that the kick is too weak.

[sergiobR1]

that's because it's unmastered with headroom, you need to level up the volume

[quest]

It's already down. I didn't count "a few" days, it was there for one day. Did you find a label already?

[sergiobR1]

well.... i'm very close... been talking with someone.

I have told to erase this post since I deleted the link.
But as no one has deleted this thread i'll keep a link to it, just because you requested it.

EXCLUSIVE FOR SUBSEKT (please don't like or comment on it):

I would have listened, but your approach completely put me off.

[Eliad]

Just for subsekt ? For free ? How generous !

[quest]

Apparently reverse psychology doesn't work for getting feedback "comment or whatever" isn't encouraging exactly...

Anyway, I think there is definitely some originality in the music, good elements for sure, but as the first commenter said, the low end is lacking in a way that would be hard for the mastering engineer to make up for. Some reinforcement is in order.

Weird attitude, but I took a listen.


There are a lot of mix problems that need addressing to get it to a decent standard in my opinion.


The kick is buried in the mix and needs more weight, and possibly a little more emphasis in the high frequencies so it matches the top end of the track a little more closely.

High hats are too loud in the mix and completely outweight the kick, throwing the overall balance of the groove. They also sound really dry and could do with some reverb.

The overall low end of the mix feels really crowded and closed off, like it`s over compressed or just restricted to a narrow frequency range. The lows could be lower and fuller, all the emphasis seems to be in the low mids/high bass, with nothing sitting lower, this makes everything sound very digital and lacking warmth.

Claps are also very dry and could do with a touch of wet, reverb or something.

Ok, listening again, I see the low end problem. The bass and kick occupy the same region, they need to be moved apart frequency wise.

Stereo width is also very tight, track feels very cramped and could do with some more space.

Overall the sound is very dry and digital, and very static. There doesn`t seem to be any life or presence in the sounds.

Use of saturation, chorus, stereo spreading, reverb and other effects would help to breath life in to this.

If I were given this to master I would say it is not ready.

ok,
first of all, i'm so sorry to all of you, never wanted to sound like a prick
to be really honest, i had reported this thread a long time ago to be erased (because I can't erase it by my own), but seems that i have to learn the lesson.

and second, thx voidloss for the tips, will try to bring everything into life ASAP.
I had made a small experiment on this track, taked everything on a group and putted a decimort on it, and fucked up everthing, LOL, and as you can realize everything you had said has sense, because decimort has a few filters and bitreduction and well... i'll try to make everything clean and see what I get.

Regards.
