@Snoopp: Awesome track, it sounds a bit mono to me, maybe try panning and add a second layer on the lead to make it more full.

Been working on this for a while and Im not sure about the screech parts but whatever

sorry guys my bad :)

ill be as honest and open minded as i can be :)

please dont be too harsh if mine is somewhat crappy, i tend to be very over critical of my own stuff :( that why i would really love to know what others may think....

***********************************************************************************************************************************
@PERCEPTOR
im loving the sampled parts before the drop... vocal is cool and trippy, kick is ok could do with some more ooooomph... screetch is also ok, maybe a tad more wider with respect to stereo and longer tail maybe???

@R.H.
i agree with fort noxious, there's no POW!!! flat/hollow punches... distort compress layer and repeat and see how dat works out, also place some perc hits over the punch of the kick to bring the treble frequency on the punch up giving it a tad more "KAAA"..... but there's a million formulae to get a kick that'll give you a hard on, best thing is to fiddle and fiddle and fiddle till u get da perfect sound that fits with the other samples in the track and layout...

@FORT NOXIOUS
very different use of that style of vocal and very nicely done.... love the screetch synth melody, could have mary variation or change but otherwise rocking!!! i like the beat juggling and vocal pitching before the last drop.... another track i would like to hear fully...

@SNOOPP
love that rising screetch in da beginning!!!! hell yeah!!! really nice melody!!! a track that i would like to listen to from beginning to end... nice!!!! ever need a remix? lemme know ;)

@DRASTIC
hectic that boom comes outta nowheres !!!! BOOOOOOOOOM!!!! dont like that synth, needs lotsa tweaking, its a bit harsh???

@NRX
wow, i have nothing to say except that i would love a copy of this full song @320kbps, nice f*^&king tune!!! melody also is nice and catchy!!!! ne chance to do a remix??? NICE ONE!!!!!

NRx Hardstyle: the midinro and outro sound very flat and empty and it sounds a bit boring cuz it's like the same for a long periode of time. the melody sounds nice also a good kick :) but I think the whole track could use some more atmosphere.

HardStaticRecords: I find this very hard to judge because I'm not realy into this kind of style. but to me it sounds like there is to much going on. also the build ups needs more power and take to long. also take a look at your mix beacause it sounds messy to me.

a project I started

@DizzleHS89
The concept is alright, but it all needs some work done. The first screech is way too quiet, you usually dont have such big volume differences between two screeches. The screech itself has no reverb on it and needs proper EQing, since it sounds not really powerful. Also there are percs and fx missing, so it sounds still quite empty. But hard to judge from such a short preview.

@hardStatic
Stereotypes mentioned everything I must say. The mixdown is way too overcompressed, the build up takes too long. But it all seems pretty worked out and I like the track itself a lot. But please fix the mixodwn ;) Hard to judge because of that.

@NRx
I have to say that its not really my cup of tea, but technically its quite awesome what you did there. The mixdown is nice and clean, synths sound a bit thin but alright and your kick really has the room to breathe. The Outro is the best part for me, it has a nice drive. But I think you could add a few more fx and glitches. You already got your fx kicks but I'm sure more fxes will fill out your track more.

@Stereotypes
Huge! Nothing to criticise here, your kick sounds awesome and the screeches have an insane drive. Looking forward to the finished version!

@maneki neko I like the reverse kick, maybe the punch is a bit too long but thats personal preference. Like how you gave that track a new light but i think the punch in main kick has too much reverb. Overall sounds great
@defiance dj Welcome to harderstate. Your tracks don't really stick into one thing. Its like lots of ideas for a track put together. Can't judge much since you are a begginer but keep going. The kick has a nice crunch but on the second track the start sounds like slowed down happy hardcore.
@djzane Not really into hard trance but I do like uplifting trance. Loving the gated kicks but on the second track I think it drowns the climax too much and when it stops you can hear the melody getting louder. Work on the mixdown, is my suggestion. Overall I like both tracks but there is room for improvement.

Here is my latest remix for Robert Miles. Enjoy

Stereotypes, sounds nice, really

DEFIANCE DEEJAY, i think you should make your kick more clear, i mean that now its like floating somewhere. And as i hear you have weak low frequencies. You basically should wotk on your kicks more + work with lead sounds and melodies, more practice.

DJZane, i like bass and the sounds on the background of your hard trance track, but not the melody, sounds booring for me, everything else is good. like it.
Same thing with the other track, sounds and mixing is good, but not the melody :(

Dj Matikk really cool tune, maybe lead sound on the drop can be 1 octave lower and after second drup main lead also, maybe this is a just my taste. Kick is nice and your track is doing a really positive and summer feeling in me) And i love how track ends

What do you think about my latest project?
