@DaBeatPlayah: The reversed bass works very well in the midintro. The break/melody gives me a summerlike feeling. Not really my thing, but it works well with the rest of the track. Transition from break to climax could use some work. The climax is kinda there now, not much anticipation (does that make sense?). The highest pitched kicks sound out of tune to me.

@Arcus: Starts off nice, get's you excited for the kick to hit. Bit disappointed about that though, to jumpy for my taste. Even if that is what you're aiming for, I think it would benefit from some punch. Screech is good! Vocals work very well also. Would certainly try to finish it if I were you.

@NRx Hardstyle: I wouldn't call it scary per sé, it's just not a happy track. Which is a good thing. The tail of the kick could use some more crunch imo (I find a bitcrusher to be helpfull). Maybe add some additional sounds, drums/percussion or variation in the melody in the second climax.

@Arcus Thanks for the feedback first of all Like Loophole said, make a really raw kick, the track would be so mad with a heavy resonance punch with deep bass! Add more reverb to the screetch to make it sound bigger and eq the high end a bit more, it's a really great concept, vocal timing is perfect, finish the track
@NRx Hardstyle Thanks for the feedback aswell Fix up your mixdown, your kick has a bit too much bass which makes the rest of your kick hard to hear, the lead has a bit too much distortion for my liking, (almost sounds like its clipping). Feel free to add more reverb to those impacts and turn them down a little, maybe add a bassdrum to it so it has more impact in the low end. I think the claps are too loud and lack reverb. All my opinion, and i just love reverb, does the job for almost everything

I worked a lot more on my track, i know some bits sound odd/empty, i'm planning to add FX kicks and screetches and shit. I know the reverse bass is anti-climactic I can't seem to find a good bassdrum for it, i might just scrap it... Same with the bit at 1:40 Mixdown needs work, and at 3:37 the "big lead" is a bit too loud. If you're going to give me feedback please think of things i haven't added/ need to improve, thanks

NRx Hardstyle: I love the style of the track. I think after 1:20 it goes a little too quiet IMO, the first crash after that is way too loud in comparison. The lead should also sound a bit "fatter" and "deeper", it sounds a quite thin to me. Sounds really good though :>

DaBeatPlayah: The melody in the intro reminds me of a song, cant remember which but it sounds very similar. The synth from 3:37 sounds like its panned too much to one side. You should add a sub bass or reverb crashes to some parts to fill in the mix, otherwise it sounds dry. The lead during the climax sounds a bit too quiet but otherwise everything sounds pretty good

Hey guys having bit of trouble can't quite make this screech fit with the other sounds still pretty new to making Hardstyle would appreciate some advice




Or does it have to be like this

[NRx Hardstyle]

@SQMDQ: Awesome lead and just gotta love that progression, keep it up!
@Krip: Cant listen to your first link, second one has waay too much detune on the screech, try adding a bandpass and distortion together with pitch and filter envelopes(?) with a lot of reverb and sidechain the tok to a compressor. You should get a nice fat screech.

Something Ive been working on
The intro is a bit wierd and the screech

[viniarinsky]

@NRx: i think you really have talent! your track sounds really good imo. I just joined this forum because i am looking for someone to start a duo with. If you (or someone else) want to start a duo with me, pls let me know.

Here's a track I made:

... mo/s-mRnuU

peace!

@NRx I really like that melody man sounds awesome. I don't really have something to comment on it sounds really nice. The only thing i would do is have some more variation in the intro i think that would make the screech fit in nicely. Maybe a some chords under it or something. Keep up the good work!

@viniarinsky The track sounds really nice, fine screeches and nice fx and build up but the kick just doesn't fit in right. In my opinion it needs a way harder kick and you need to sidechain because that makes the punch sounds better in the mix. A tip that always comes in handy with me is mix everything around your kick. so first make the kick sound as you prefer and mix everything around that. Keep up the good work!

Here is something raw i have been working on.

[krip deejay]

@climax really love the dark atmosphere and melody in your raw track lead sounds nice too

Here is something I have been working on

... th/s-605N8

[NRx Hardstyle]

@Climax: Kick needs some minor changes, it sounds like its been pitched too far down and the whole sample is grainy, tok needs a bit more punch and try addding some more high end in the tok, it sounds like its inside a bag.

@Krip Deejay: Try remaking the melody with a lot of more notes, try get influences from other similar melodies. Kick needs more volume, I like the low end though, its blasting. The main lead is a bit thin and missing some eq,delay,reverb,sidechain, also the Legato in the lead is waaaay to high.
I do like the screeches, but they need more power, adding some more distortion wont hurt
You should focus some more on mixdown and mastering, getting some more power in your tracks. Otherwise it has great potential, keep it up!


Collab with Vienzo and Me, working on some vocals and other stuff like that. The arrangement isnt final, some parts will be shortened and remade to fit in with the vocals.

@NRx Hardstyle
Nice tune you got here I really like the distorted synth thingy in the intro (I mean the synth the track started with)! But unfortunately it gets pretty annoing with the same pattern (just the synth, not the whole arrangement) over and over again. I don´t know how to describe it properly. I hope you get what I mean.
Anyway, everything is pretty clear and sits strong, as far as I can hear. I really like the Kick! Sounds very good and pitches well! Nice Job so far!

@Climax
All in all there is a cool atmosphere in the track. But the kick is muddy as hell, lacks tok and like NRx already said I have the feeling that it pitches too far. And mabe it is just me but it is hard to understand the vocals (which seem cool ). Mabe lower/eq the backround a bit and raise the volume of the vocals. but keep it up! Cool idea

@krip deejay
I really hear a cool idea! But there are some things bothering me. The kick needs a better punch with a strong high end. The lowend of the kick seems fine while the mids are a bit too stereo and thin for my taste. But maybe this was intended. The overall sound design is pretty cool even tho the sounds are a bit thin overall. But sounds cool mate, just needs a bit more work you are almost there!

Okay here is the latest track I made. Turned out pretty long (I am sorry for that ). Any feedback is welcome!
