@krystal Your landscape track is legit! Can definitely picture that at a festival. Same with twisted sun, but the landscape is the favorite.

My lead isn't mastered or anything, just exported raw out of production so volume may be low. I like designing more of the older style

@Krystaal - Nice atmosphere and Code Black'ish lead :)
@Tragedy1191 - Has an oldschool feeling, but some places are really random... Try to put it under scale and proper chord sequence... I know that it is somewhen hard, but you should learn this asap :)

Krystal: chords are nice, but I don't think those upper notes fit.
Tragedy1191: that delay is strange. Otherwise there's nothing really wrong the melody, but I think you should make some variations.
Qobalt: some rhytimic issues I noticed, correct the notes :P

Inspirational wave together with NC kick.

@convicted really like the second part of the melody :) first part could do with more variation imo. nice lead :)

@Qobalt its ok but its missing something

I tried a hardtrance/hardstyle melody im not the best at producing.made a reverse base for it and quicky made this snippet its not a track.

@Sashone has a good feeling, more like tech trance though
Rhytmic Dynamics, just pitch the tail - simple

@Krystaal that has a nice feel, like it



this melo isn't my style and made it just for fun, inspired by the insane dentist Dr. loboto
Oh shit, I love these weird notes! Not sure, if you'd come up with a track including this melody, but I'd definitely have a listen to that :P



Simple, but I think it should work. Don't pay attention on the build-up, it's horrible :P

@the convicted
the build up is a bit long, but doesn't sound so bad ;)
the melody does sound a bit too repetitive in my opnion tho.
but overall it sounds pretty good.



i really tried to improve on mixing for this one.
The "vocals" do need a bit more cleaning, but i wanted to know if i'm going in the right direction with the mixdown.

Edit: i noticed thah the reeverb plugin crashed while reopening the project, thats why it sounded dry in the first preview.
In this one, i managed to keep the reeverb.

Zine-Wave, the melody is a little to simple. And some of your long notes sound like they're randomly placed. :)
Convicted, lovely summer feeling in that one. With the right sounds this could be great.

Made 2 melody's myself, not really sure which one i prefer.

@zine-wave: just as aftershoq said, it lax a bit complexity, structure the melody up and add more notes.
@Aftershoq: link is dead, can you reupload?


Testing out a new supersaw technique and a older melo that I remade a couple of times
