Jens: nicely done! But I think the kick should be changed a bit, doesn't hit that much I hoped for. Also do some variations at the melodic part, it's a bit repetitive.
Starkast: proper dark stuff incoming, I really like the atmosphere. Nothing really much to say there, looking for a longer version.

Here's my latest stuff. Not the most professional, but I'll keep trying for sure.

Antimoon you might want to add a guitar bassline or maybe some more backround noise, Sounds good overall but you can add all you want and it would sound good. But other than that i dont know you have a good start. Work on it abit more and come back would be nice to hear what you have done on it after a while. :)

The Convicted It sounds nice have you tried add a cello as a bass so you have that bassy kind of string to fill in to the track otherwise its nice and clean piano and strings.


I seriously need some help on this one, like i have put up abit of a constuction on this one but i know it needs alot of work but i dont know where to begin.

@Higgarn: Very interesting synth, main thing to work on is making the drop more interesting. Try adding a heavily distorted fm synth in or try playing around with effects on your main synth, play with filters and distortion, maybe add some notches and play around with those?
@Antimoon: Nice idea but really just needs filling out, add extra elements as Higgarn suggested and also try and make the strings sound more natural, if you can, link the volume/dynamics of the sound to a mod wheel and adjust that whilst playing, I've found that to be the best way to achieve a natural, authentic sound.
@The Convicted: I like it but would love to see it fully dressed with more parts of an orchestra! Nice work :)

Trying out some trance again, been a while since I touched this genre!

The Void love the way you used the vocal and if you only made trance i would have all your tracks right now, i am trying to get it as you have done but i never get it XP however i like the flow you have in the track you realy have something here, i want the mp3 when you are done with it :) ^^ <3


I call this track a remix because i used the vocal from the original track, but i have not yet listen to the original how it was made i only had the vocal in my vocal pack that i downloaded and ended up with this so called remix :)

@The Void Very good, love the trance (L)
@Higgarn Nice one, really dig it :D
Can't really give you any feedback, as I'm not as good as you...

Me and my brother has been working on this project during Christmas, and are getting happy with the results, but we need some feedback, it would be much appreciated :)

@Higgarn this is relaxing, personally I even would've preferred it a few bpm slower but thats taste, nice mixdown quality and the beat/cymbals kind of remind me of the Police - Walking On The Moon (J-Art & Madan Remix), in a posititve way :+ also nice use of the vocals.

@Herman
I like your build up very much, gives me a refreshing feeling, melody is good too, sound quality is good, but maybe cut down some upper mids? Feels a little bit stuffed there

So I finally uploaded stuff I've been doing the last year, and I'm very curious for feedback :) it's soft/light/chill house? I don't know

@Herman: One thing I noticed in the beginning of your track is that snare hit at 0:14. It hits a little too early. Should hit a few beats later. The rest of the track is good, but you should work on your mix. Some sounds feel a bit too loud or agressive. Keep it up!

@Edgie: I really dig the overall atmosphere of your track. Maximum chill level! Though it feels like you put a low-pass on your master channel. Please add some high frequencies to the track! This would make the athmosphere stand out even more. Also you should make more room in the mix for the punch of your kick. It gets eaten up by the surrounding sounds and thus looses its energy.

What do you think about my very first track?
