Well, this is certainly good fun. I just played this quite loud. I was immediately impressed with the sound of the kick. In fact all of the percussion has quite a punchy sound. I liked the synths too, with their dry and reverbed treatments.
Good work

I wanted to hear more tonal variation on the main synth bass loop. Nothing major particularly, just something subtle. That's about the only suggestion I can come up with
That is a great kick. BTW, isn't it weird how soundcloud's waveform doesn't seem to always match what's going on in the track - i.e. in some places we hear a kickdrum, but the spikes it makes in the waveform are absent.

Thanks for the listen, guys!
Sendy. Yes, SC's image of the wave form, might need some work. Just a glitch(PUN!) May be.
As for the , tonal variation on the main synth bass loop. Yes, I agree, it needs some variation.

The mix is a lot crisper. It's like you opened a filter on the entire mix I still say the main riff needs more to it, maybe subtle layering. It souns good and I like the sound, but as it plays through the entire track, and it's going to be the opener on your album, I'd say it still needs more work.
Come on, get to it!
Come on, get to it!

Yeah, the main riff Is, the next thing I'm working on. As for the "opened a filter " impression, I've switched EQs on each channel, I'm using Meldaproductions' Meq, from their "free" bundle, which I've paid the upgrade fee(about $65 USD, currenlty) which has about 16 FX in it, and any additions to the pack are free, with the upgrade, that is. The master channle has Meldaspectral dynamics, inside Melda's "Still To Be released" MXXX project.
Its going to be HUGE and should give Ozone a run, for it's money

I prefer the sound of the latest version. It's louder and punchier.

Sounds great. I like the way you changed the bass synth. It also seems much louder than the previous two mixes.
Good work

That's a resolution/interpolation artefact. Maximise the browser on-screen and the waveform becomes more accurate.Sendy wrote:.....isn't it weird how soundcloud's waveform doesn't seem to always match what's going on in the track - i.e. in some places we hear a kickdrum, but the spikes it makes in the waveform are absent.
