Hey, I have made a Tech House track. I am still experimenting and I wanted to ask you for some feedback.
1.) Do you think it needs more mixing?(yes, I have already mastered. maybe there is something I have to change
2.) Do you think it needs better mastering?
3.) In general, what do you like or do not like?
4.) What do you think about the vocals?



Sry for the bad grammar by the way

Best regards Dlinez

 

Work those vocal levels... My ears are bleeding ...
Can't say if the mastering needs a better work, 'case those vocals are just HORRIBLE

 

Ok. Will be done. Thank you! :D

 

Hi Dlinez,

I'm afraid you can't fix the vocals in the mix. They have a serious lack of timing, intonation and emotional expression. To be honest timing is a catastrophy (chorus), intonation is bad and emotional expression isn't really there (where it should be).

You have a bass sound at 46Hz? Are you serious? To judge if this really sounds good you need full range monitors and listen to it at really high volume (min 85dBA)! Despite that a simple frequency analysis shows that it is much too loud. And if you lower this the whole RMS level changes, so I don't respond to this at the moment.
Also the frequencies between 300 and 3000Hz aren't falling in level which they slighty should and you have a small peak between ~ 6kHz and 9kHz.

Despite that your track is incedibly clipping! If you convert a wav to mp3 don't go above -1dB with your wav (never go with your wav above -0,3 anyway) and if you want somebody to judge your mix/mastering use 320kbps instead of 128. The difference is audible.

But I like your composition ;-)

 

Nice tech track man love the arrangement...except yea those vox...maybe chop it up a little tech house style and turn them down in the mix. Got my vote on everything else in general!!

 

It's not the singers fault, as this is a vocal rip of following song:

He can fix it easily by doing the correct frequency to beat calculations. Intonation and expression, however, were for the song linked above (for the tech track it's pitched down) and not for this more darker tone.

I agree to everything else you said.

* Kick doesn't kick... it's so muddy, bass swamp
* Vocals wayyyy too loud (piano too)
* Main synth and mixdown reminds more to EDM than tech house

* Arrangement works well
