[Fall Away]

Love the way that the beat came in. Love your voice too. I felt like the bass synth got in the way a bit. I would have kept the piano in the higher and/or equed it to fit the synth. Also try slapping some reverb on your voice (especially the backgrounds) and play with panning!

But musically, the melody of your verses are WAY strong. PLEASE keep writing songs. The music is INSANELY good. It's just some quality that gets in the way a bit. But the music is STRONG. Keep doing it, PLEASE!

aaronmusslewhite responds:

Thank you I'm glad you like the track!! There's a ton of panning actualy. The only thing center is kick snare and vocals. And I can see the bass being loud to people I was definitely trying to make an edgier feel to be complemented by the prettier parts. The piano I think is just high passed. I like really natural piano sounds so I don't do tooo much eq... It's mainly there to be a pretty part against the rawr edm bass haha. Thank you for the tips and advice tho I'll keep it in mind. I Always try to improve! :D

[|-Southern Taste-|]

Quality beat!

I was prepared to cringe because of what i usually hear, but I had a very pleasant surprise! The percussion was absolutely on point and the groove was solid! If anything, the equalizing was a bit on the high end but other than that, GREAT job!

Thanks check the full version out on youtube, much better :)

[Sundivine-in the clouds PREV]

YES....YES...and YES!

Lovely intro (the drop SO did not disappoint). Your use of reverb STRENGTHENED your already wonderful synth choice. Your percussion's pauses worked really well with me! I'm dancing in my seat! LOVE IT!......but it should be like 3 times as LONG!

THX:DD i really thought it sounded like shit XD and bout the lenght:im still working on it hope you will enjoj the finale outcomme too:DDwhile your at it id apreciate if u give a like to mah facebbok:DD:)

[Diminishing]

Really AMBIENT!

The pads were leveled reeeeally well in the song and took me into a great atmosphere. I would have lowered the high hat a bit! But the chord progressions really brought out the ambience. Not too much embellishment which really worked! AWESOME! :D

And the breakdown of percussion around 1:35 just had me saying "Yes!" lol...I would have varied the bassline at that part to compliment it a little bit, but great jooob! :)

Chuggernog responds:

Thanks man! yea i could see that part needs work.

[Redeemed Victory]

I would level up to this music any day....

It absolutely just tickles my fancy! The melody is catchy and you complimented it with your bass job! Love it!

SirKoto51 responds:

lol, I'm glad to know that it tickles your fancy. Thanks for the feedback. :)

[How Do I Continue This!!!!????]

Lots of potential!

I saw your post in the audio portal and I just want to let you know that in whatever genre you are looking to specialize in, listen to just instrumentals in them and listen to the development. Start by mimicking it and adding itself to your own style and soon, by drawing influences from anywhere, you will have your own sound! It doesn't happen overnight, but you can do it. You already have a hold of moving aronud a bit in keys, but you want when people listen to your music that you have something that is different and innovative! You have yet to discover it, but just dig within yourself, practice hard and DON'T STOP!

XD

MatrixGravity responds:

Hey thanks alot man i appreciate it i'll definitely try to keep at it.
It's nice to hear to hear some positive feedback for a change and some motivation from somebody aside from all the people telling me to quit and give it up.
I really do believe i have potential here and it'd be a shame to throw it all away just because of some non-believers.

[Reviving]

Oh my gosh!

Wow! These synths are just so unique in their tone and the way that you placed them! I love'em. I would have liked to see some more development in conutermelodies to end off the song (that's what I do, lol) but the feel of this is great!

TheBlackbyrd responds:

Im highly appreciative of your feedback man. thanks. :)

Very good percussion...

You have some very sick percussion on this one Flash. You really rocked the sample on this one. One thing is just that your percussion either needs to be a bit quieter or your sample needs to be coming up because it's being overpowered. I also like the way you reintroduced the intro's hook with the percussion. Another good one, Flash!!!

flashmac responds:

Thanks dude. The drums are a lil loud, you're right
