@Binarix: Sounds pretty intresting, just some more mid frequencies and it should be good. Also screech needs a bit more reverb to sound fuller ;)

Zone: Nice sounding kick and vocals, lead needs fattening and some more voices to become big.

Working on something completely different, dont know about the melo tho...

@NRx : I like the intro, the part from 0:13 to 0:38 is pure gold, kick is a bit too jumpy in my opinion but it still sounds good. Tho, the melody doesn't fit the atmosphere and the lead is a bit too cheesy compare to the intro. Imo you should keep the intro and change that main part. good work _O_

@GamerZoneUSA : Lead sounds like an organ, which is not harder enough. With this melody you can try something like frontliner, should work.

@greentechnnl : good atmosphere, but I don't like that annoying screech. A more screamy synth should work better imo.

@sohaBay : 3 min of the same sounds can be a bit boring. The only bad thing imo is that horrible kick you should fix. And same as others, mastering is a work for specialized people, don't loose time with it, just make a simple one.

@daniro29 : the tba track would be better as a trance track but it's ok and quite interesting. Melody can be improved a bit but it is still nice. For your other track, make a raw screech and it will be better imo.

I have updated the last track I posted here. Don't know what to do with it as I don't find it enough good compared to the other tracks i'm working on :O :'(

Thanks for the feedback, how is this for melody? Im still going to change it a bit and add stuff to it. This is just the basic parts. Also dont mind the failed pitch bend.

Melody is okay I guess, kick pitching too, but I think the lead needs more power :p

Sound already better imo! One problem in your first one was that the kick overpowered the lead, now with the more present lead the distortion gets "pushed down" a bit, but I think thats just a mixing thing :P

@Ynori Greatly executed ideas my friend! The track mechanics always keep me interested and focused. You seem to have your main theme with the main lead and another outro sort of "edm drum" theme. I could imagine that track working well if you introduced another theme such as something Dubstep or raw or more EDM like at 2:30, just something different from the first climax, even alternating would be fine {one bar 1st theme second bar modern talking dubstep "yoy's"} Idk man, i just feel like it needs something new in there. That aside, sounds like something a a record label would sign! :dance:

@GamerZoneUSA Just as a start, I would reccomend never ever mixing screetches wih something ever so slightly melodic. After 1:00 i may have gotten an aneurysm to put it nicely. The vocals didnt't match the track whatsoever. Your melodies are made of init presets with nothing in the mixer and randomly placed in the piano roll. If you're looking to seriously produce, look up some tutorials, there's more than enough out there, because tapping away on mouse and keyboard with no new knowledge wont help at all. I'm not saying mine is any better, and to anyone reading this, take it more as a wake up call than an insult, or just disregard it completely. Better being told the truth than keep on getting sugarfed.

^I might go for a "wasted Penguinz - Inner Peace" approach with this one, I just really want it to sound big and idk, creative.

@DaBeatPlayah,

Man, the break sounds really good in my opinion. Kinda remind me of Scarface somehow haha! (which is goooood)
I would bring up the piano a little bit more, more the attack of it so you can hear him 'hitting' the keys a bit better, but that's a taste issue of course. I get what you're willing to achieve here but the climax is now kind of out of the blue if you get what I mean. Leadsound is a bit thin imo and missing his reverb, try to sidechain it with some compression, this way your kick is also brought back a little bit more to the foreground. The sound at 1:13 is really dry, try playing with that a little bit more. Piano in the climax is really good, fits it well! Melody sounds really good to me! So try tweaking it a little bit further, but it has some good potential!

We also entered in the remix contest of B-front's 'Face The Truth', we submitted the track like this. But feedback is always welcome :D. And we're gonna give it away when we reach 50 likes on facebook :)

@Chaze

Wow, I love this 2009ish sound! You guys did absolutely great work! I have nothing more to add. Superb track!

So, yeah. Messing with some sounds
