    Some notes:
    1- the track is a bit harsh on high frequencies (de-ess de master maybe?), or overall too much high end.
    2- did you remove the side bass?
    3- try compressing the bass area.
    4- nice track :), I hope it goes as you wish.

    Love,
    D.

    Good one man! :like: love the vocals... Mix seems like it needs some work...but i cant comment specifically what ...im listening on cheap headphones and your low end seems too loud... possibly too much stereo spread and volume? And i think the vocals need more definition... But, like i said...cheap headphones... My feedback maybe incorrect...

    Love the song...

    @Kinghtsurfer if 2 guys talk about it, that's a mistake I guess. :)
    Thank you for the review!

    As Kinghtsurfer said, the vocal is a bit drowned, try putting a sidechain for the middle and high freqs.

    Usually not my type of genre, but I listend til the End. It's interesting to listen to

    Great Stereo Imaging! Sounds pretty official.

    Just 4 little notes:
    I miss a little more smack in the snare/claps (maybe increase attack time?)
    The reverby double snares before the middle section and right before the last part ar bit too loud.
    I'd tame the the bass a bit in the upper lows. Sounds a bit too growly
    I Like the airy Vocals, but maybe add some low mids to give them a bit more solid body. They sound a bit "fragile"

    I'm not qualified to comment on the technical aspects of the song so I'll just say I think it sounds great. Nothing in the song is out of place or annoying and it's pleasant to listen to!
     
  11. What is a sidechain?

    I don't like the melodic motif in between, but the sung parts are really good.

    A sidechain is when you strap the miss to bed and then go out partying with your friends :bleh:

    Yeah, I'll check that claps/snares tips! I guess bigger attack time will work pretty good!
    About "fragile" :) This girl vocal is very low (I mean her vocal range is in the lower octaves), so if I add a little bit of body, it's just make it Ultra-Muddy :( For sure may be that's my mistake, and I add/cut to much still I tried it previously, without any good result :(
    Thank You so much for checking, and writing review, I marked all your ideas and will definitely try them at studio!)

    Thank you!
    Previously we have an idea to create a full Chorus, but EDM Labels nowadays, don't like that, and want to hear. Intro-Verse-Drop-Verse-Drop-Outro structure in almost 100% of production.
    One more time thank you for your thoughts!

    Maybe try parallel processing on her vocals. Parallel compress the vocal on na bus boost the low end with a shelf, cut the highs and mix it into the vocal. Gives you more control than just equing
