I actually like the whole thing itself but it sounds quiet a bit empty as some "ambiance" point, like try some pads and add loads of reverb on your synths but overall it's pretty cool!

@fallinedge
I like your track, and the idea of it. For the pre-drop vocal, maybe focus the vocal a bit more on the syllables. That way, the vocal has a bit more impact. Besides that, the kick itself is waaaaaaaaaaaaay to quiet. Turn that motherfucker up, it's what your track is about! In the intro the track sounds pretty good, it's full-ish, and the drums fit well in my opinion. Maybe a bit dry. Your lead sounds a bit annoying. Maybe turn the decay up a bit and turn the sustain down a notch. Melody is fun, nothing too special. Sounds a bit like Phuture Noize, which is good if that's your inspiration. The transition to the mid intro is a bit sudden, you can announce it a lot better by using risers, and percussion. Your mid intro sounds pretty good, but it get's boring pretty quickly. Try to add some more elements to keep it interesting. The vocal itself could be louder, cause it's hard to understand. Your lead sounds a bit dull, coming to the second drop. Try using some pitch envelope on your lead, so it has more movement. I like your idea, it has a lot of potential, sounds like Phuture Noize on mdma. Keep it up, and you'll have a great track on your hands. Certainly a lot better than my first track
@KRB-MP
The intro sounds pretty cool, but the little melody get's boring quickly. Try to mix it with some variation, and break it up with maybe another screech or sound to make it more melodic. Your transition to the midintro could use something simple, like an impact sample or smth to really give the feel you're coming down afther the drop. The melody itself is pretty good, bit simple but simple can be good. I like the variation you use towards the drop, maybe use a pitch automation to give it a bit more energy. Also, use some risers and such to work towards the drop. I like the sounds you use in the background, it gives a good feel to the track and fills up a lot. Overall, a pretty nice track. Polish it up a bit, and you have a dope track.
@Krystaal
Your kick doesn't really come through. The synth is a bit too loud, and the kick too quiet. I think a bit of compression would do your kick good, so it sounds a lot more whole. I know how difficult it can be for your kick to cut through the lead and all other sounds, put it's one of the most important things in a mix. If you can make that work, you'll have a dope track.
Keep up the work guys, practise is key!

Lost In My Dreams [Remastered]
i think the highs are to much. it overall sounds a little thin. the idea is cool but the main lead melody needs a lot fuller sound. add some chords underneath i think.
@SKRWD
about that crossbreed idea. i think its cool man. sounds dope. nothing to add.
@zero opacity,
That anthem, its decent imo. but yeah the melody just doesnt gets me if you get me ;P
that kick is not my type to but that can be taste. also i have the feeling that the lead is drowned by the reverb and sounds to far away for my taste.
@fallin edge,
cool stuff. but indeed like others said. the kick is very low in volume and just doesnt cut through.
some cool idea's in that track so. keep it up.
@Krystaal.
The crypt v2. i hear some Crunch i dont like. maybe its just clipping and not in the nice way, dont know how i can say it better... But yeah. the idea is cool tho. would finish it for sure.
me binarix have been gone here for some time now, alot of stuff goin on in my life right now but nevertheless wanted some feedback on my latest snippet.

@greentechnnl
i love it .
its hard to give feedback on something that sounds finished .
but , if you want it ,
here you go .
maby make the intro at 40 sec even more interesting , by adding the seocnd half of the intro with the kick you used in the outro at 2:43
also , it sounds perfect i say again , but if you want more , you could ad a high lead , just teasing the second half part of the drop , to ad even more things going on .
for the rest , man , this is good stuff
now its time for something i worked on with a midi controller i got from a buddy , first time i start to use a midi controller
please let me know what you guys think about it , ( side note : i want to ad more vocals to it , but i am thinking about what vocals , so keep that in mind )

@Krystaal
This Krystal x The Crypt WIP sounds absolutely epic! Nothing to complain here. Please send me a test version asap ;P
@greentechnl
Really liking the sound design. Sounds a bit like Atmozfears to me. That kick at 2:38 is really sweet! Can't say much about the overall quality and mixdown as I'm listening on cheap in-ear headphones. Keep it up!
@Gunner1001
The intro (?) sounds good... But idk, the sudden key switch when the kick comes sounds a bit... Weird? Overall compared to the intro it sounds too flat and dry for my taste. BUT. You've got a structure and ideas. Work on it until you are satisfied with your results. This project definitely has potential. Keep it up, mate!
Sooo, I've been working on a new kick which is made of a shitton of layers (including my old kick), eq'd and distorded until I was satisfied with it. Also, I've been working on my sound design and mixing skills. What do you think?

Thanx for the replies mates.
If it sounds good on cheap in ears then I'm happy
Will check the tracks posted later and try to give some feedback.
On my phone now.
Edit:
@Skrwd.
nice start. got a little audiofreq feeling with that rythm thingy goin on.

SKRWD I like the overall structure. I would agree that it got an audiofreq feeling but you should work a bit more on the sounds to get smthg really cool
Gunner1001 Unexpected it's the word that describes the more your track. Everything comes in without warning and disappears so quickly. It's like you're trying to put all the ideas you have on your head some parts pop out more than some others (volume, cleanliness)
Greentechnl Really like the break, atmosphere is great. Melody/lead sounds a bit strange at first, but it sounds ok at 2nd listening. That last part is pretty dope.
Was working on a kick and I did this.

@asklepios
Thx m8.
I like you're drive, its cool but I feel like after that were you end there should come a big bangin kick. Not the club style/psy like stuff.
I. Also really am glad that people like the last part of my track...
But tbh it's the trend right now.
The whole track i did 4/4 and in that part i just used a club/psy kick and arped the tail of my raw kick (atleast the mids/highs) and did that part in triplets. it was nothing special to me tbh. But people like that part the most.
I think of my snippet like the break i put in the most work. And tried to get a raw kick feeling in the intro/climax goin.
@Skrwd.
I listened to youre last posted track called ''andromeda''
the lead could be alot fuller if you stacked some chords that goes with the melody and balanced it right.
its to bad. cause i like the track but i also feel like the whole thing is to static.... IMO
try to make the lead a lot fuller cause the lead is what is driving this track IMO.
Also try to work on youre loudness levels... some tracks are so different in loudness that i have to adjust BIG TIME to really hear what you wanted to achieve.
It's good to read what people think about some stuff. And i thank you all for that feedback.

Hey man! First of all I'd like to thank you for your honest feedback. I really appreciate it. With static you mean kind of repetitive, or? Well, it is meant to be, hence the repetitiveness was intentional. 'Andromeda' is basically a refined and remade version of one of my older tracks called 'Android' which was a sequel to another track of mine, 'Invaders'. Said track has also had that kind of repetitive sound with some dubstep-ish rhythm pattern.greentechnnl wrote:@Skrwd.

'Andromeda' is basically a remake of 'Android' which I made in around three hours (without mastering), hence the simplicity regarding sound design. I simply wanted to finish a track and started with remaking an old one of mine. It also is a try on mastering Hardstyle.
Concerning the loudness: As I don't know (yet) how to properly master - 'Andromeda' is my first try on a mastered track - I used to mix my tracks on 0db. That's the reason why most of my tracks sound way too quiet. This time I mixed on -6db so I've got enough headroom for the mastering process (I hope my way is correct, though...).
As I said before, thanks for your review! I'm looking forward to some new tracks of yours and I hope that you'll like my upcoming tracks.
@Asklepios: I will check your track later, as I'm on mobile rn
@Asklepios
WOW! man oh man this sounds PHAT! This gives me real Code Black/Toneshifterz type of vibe. Awesome drive in the buildup... and that kick blows me away, it is so powerful and that rhythm is spot on. This would tear the house down played live at a festival or club. Also love the silence @ 0:36, perfect place to then throw in a screech pattern with that heavy kick. FINISH THIS! I want it ASAP
@SKRWD
That intro is driving! Personally i think the mid intro lets it down a bit... not enough energy and perhaps lack of power? I think with a fuller kick (low end - lacks power) and some extra reverb on that screech it would sound top!
@Gunner1001
There are some awesome sounds going on here, i think it is a lack of structure that lets this down. Sounds almost too random? but with the dreamy vibes and oldskool feel i think this could turn out interesting!
@greentechnnl
Wooow! Vibes are strong in this one. That kick is tough! Nice and clean mid intro pattern also. Buildup works, and the climax is spooky
Sounds good! Oh maaaaan! That techy kick yesss! Sounds 10/10. love it.
Been working on this track for some time now. Like the vibe and looove the melody so need to finish this. Would love some feedback and general thoughts
