deep/ tech house track - feedback wanted - F4F

[totta]

Hey, so ive finished a first draft of this new track called Flare and would appreciate any constructive feedback.

My main issues atm are with the 1st and 2nd drop, and though they feel close they arent quite there. What do you reckon?

and as usual, I will gladly give any feedback in return

Hay man,
I've always liked your tracks.
Here are my advices. The distorted sound is too fuzzy. Smooth it. The lead is too ... simple. Layer it, thow some effects . In the drop at the end you leave only the main synth and the bassy distorted synth. Leave just the lead. Another thing is to leave just the kick for the last bar. Try it.

Heres my track man .

Dope beats!I would recommend using reverb and delay on the drop leads on the higher frequencies.

ok cool, so ive taken the last week to address the notes that were given, ive also cleaned up the mix a bit and added in a new bassline to the drop. I think its sounding a lot more solid.

What do you guys think of it now, better?

There are some really cool musical elements in this track! Very nice construction that keeps us interested along the track, specially with that instrument that comes in around 4:20 and then starts to evolves.

I'm not so good at "mixing/mastering" to give you any piece of advices on that. But this kind of "organ sound" which you play with is awesome. Do you have any piano lessons backpack ? I love it.

I would appreciate some drum fills though on these drum patterns !

Great job!

good idea with the drum fills, i always forget to add those in, i guess percussion is my weakest area...

what do you mean by "piano lessons backpack"? i did have piano lessons when i was younger, although that was quite some time ago now

thanks for the feedback!

 

[Kalzonee]

Haha! That's why I meant, if in the past you've ever had some piano lessons because you seem to work with melodies just fine!

Liking the track Kalzonee. It flows quite nicely. The mix is clean and the instruments have their own space in the mix. I especially like the instrument that comes in around 4:25

Like the vibe. Listened through it a few times. The one thing that I kept coming back to was the claps and snares. I would try to get them to punch through the mix more and fatten them up a touch. The fattening is more of a stylistic opinion tho. That's the first thing I took notice of in the mix.
