    Hi guys, i made another track, i went in all details as best i could, i find this is the limit of my skills.
    So i want your hones opinions in all aspects, dynamic, theme, sounddesing whatever.

    I DONT post my music anywhere, ive done it two times now with this one, and a random one in a thread no one read. Im seeking honest opinions not "plays" or attention,

    So please listen and feedback me hard as you got. Thnx

    Very well done in terms of craftsmanship.
    I have nothing to complain about, but rather praise for the EBM influences and the passages without a kick drum.

    Keep it up... really likely to be a hit...!

    I've listened to a lot of music in my life. Your music is imaginative and full of ideas. Very well mixed and to my ears, no need for improvement. If you get bored you can replace the kick drum with a conga. A good female vocal could also expand your sound.

    Your song is perfect, it was just an idea that was floating around in my computer to replace the standard kick drum with a conga.
    Just delete the idea with the conga.

    hehe yeah but a snippet of a conga can be a nice transient on top of a kick, its like a thing ppl take snippets of all kinds of instruments and blend them with a kick, in techno tho the sub needs its presence and in this track i boosted it a bit more, i like that way, but its hard to say if it would work in a club, who knows! :)

    Well, you don't have to make yourself a slave to the clubs, you know Intelligent Dance Music (IDM) genre name in electronic music, for some idiots your music is too sophisticated, thank God,

    In your heart.
    Leaving aside the repetition of the melody, it is well done, it is solid, But I could add: some voices, or something generated by AI, that guides me and gives me a sense of history, the sound selection could be improved, following a sound palette in Techno is very important, in addition to the balance of the percussive leads of the melody is quite bright, for the tone or feeling of the song I would look for something darker, you should also take care of the decay of your sounds, and play a little less with the ducking, despite being somewhat characteristic of 4/4, a little less ducking and a good balance between the kick and the bass can make them blend more and have that feeling of groove that unifies and makes you want to move with techno, you could also play more with the reverb of the sides in the bass. Good luck.

    Thanks,

    There is this rule, finish the song, wait a week or two then listen to it again, and you will hear all the issues, i always skip that step

    I feel like if i didnt skip that step, this track would have been improved but im blind to it now so it is done over with,
    I will take your feedback with me, i just kinda mess around with stuff, so there is no real "grip" over the song

    Vocals is a thing im gonna try get started with, its a make or break thing so yeah, guess thats next up.

    Choosing better sounds also yes, i take whatever and i bend it to my will instead of rebuilding or taking up nexus.

    Thanks for your input. !!

    Yes that part is better i lost it a bit when i came up with it started dancing, pychadelic sounds very nice,
    But then there is too much synths going, it still works but it gets tiresome, i really need to make a track, and let it sit, for a week or two, then work on it again.

    My genre is minimal techno and darker techno really, i just made a happy ish song lol :D
    Thnx for all the inputs keep em comming i need it

    A musician can also develop further, but he doesn't have to. I think you stand out from the masses.

    Where can I download or buy your songs?

    pick all the songs you want and ill wetransfer you the master = the final track, the older stuff doesnt have -1 trupeak so thats just for further uploading etc doesnt rly matter,

    No money is required but it was my first offer so i value the asking, feels good. But nah i wont take money yet hehe

    Your production is really top notch, as always. :mates:

    It slaps, holds attention, not sure about 4:22 drop, you could easily erase everything after, return to 2:52 drop again and call it a day. :thumbsup:

    Top notch stuff brother. :mates:
