Hey there!
So.. this track. It's fairly good. Production quality, while unmastered, is certainly still quite good. I think where it, in my ears, it seems to lose some of its strength in attachment and relationship with the song itself, for me, is the lack of melodic
progression.
Don't get me wrong - it's very good. The bassline is creamy, the vox have been resampled very well and utilised to a great extent. The atmosphere is chillaxing. But I don't feel that it's moving and evolving in the way that it should.
Think of it this way, in terms of the frequency spectrum:
You've got mids to mid-highs: this being your vocals, the majority of your drum samples (snare, claps, hats)
You've got lows to mid-lows: this being your layered bassline (sub and all) and your kick.
What's mostly missing is most of meat of the mids and the high content. This is your harmonies and your melodies. You've got some supporting factors, like the leads that follow the bassline, the vocals that reach far into the highs, some of
the effects to keep it nuanced and interesting, but there's something missing... something concrete in those specific areas to solidify it and keep it progressing forward.
This is just my two-cents.
Overall: this is a very good song! Great job
