Mojito (Instrumental Mix) :
Not my usual thing to make but I love to listen to this type of sound but never really made a similar song myself!

Hope you like it but more important: all feedback is welcome!!

 
there seems to be a problem with the song its not showing up try posting again
 
yeah could you post it again the song sounding interesting from the title but it's unavailable
 
If you think that it doesn't happen much in the verses it's because Mojito was originally created with vocals and for them to fit it must be simple background! If you want a preview of the acapella version just tell me :)
 
damn this song is so freaking good, awesome job really! though you could work more on the mastering make it less loud and try lowering that synth that starts around the 5 min mark it just sounds a bit annoying imo however i really liked the track you can put the link of the acapella version i would like to give it a listen
 
Thanks a lot dude!! =) Yeah, I have to work on my mastering techniques. I push all my elements too much but it's hard to stop now when I find it very comfortable to produce like that! ? Do you have any advice for me? Been in the same spot maybe!?

Here is the old Mojito with no acid touch and less eq but vocals:
This is just a test on how I thought the vocals should be! (So not final mix or perfectly structured)

Thanks a lot man! I'm glad you noticed that I intended to make it aggressive. In this type of song it can really increase both groove and energy. Nice feedback too! Gonna consider fixing those things you told me or at least keep the knowledge for my next track!! :-) Take care!

this version is really good too though i still kinda prefer the no vocal one though, for your problem try maybe producing a genre that actually require you to not push your elements too much

That sounds like a great idea! I should maybe try to produce an orchestra. Or maybe create EDOM, but then I have to push the elements in the drop. Thanks for the advice! (y)
 
I will be going over this track with a very fine-toothed comb. Here are my thoughts:
This song is overcompressed. Enough said. Do not slam a Compressor on the master until you fix the mixing first.
Use a thicker snare (Or EQ your snare to fit about 500 Hz - 20 KHz). Also. use two or three snares if you have to. Mixing drums is an art.

@ 0:50 Lower the release on those intro plucks. In general, I think your plucks need some sort of delay or reverb. It sounds super dry.
@ 2:05 I would remove the additional drums unless
@ 2:08 Interesting use of wobbles.
@ 2:38 That downshifter has too much low, it clashes. Frequency wise. Also its off key
@ 2:54 I feel like the melody is too repetitive. Use harmonics.

In conclusion, use OTT wisely. Your saws will sound more crisp.

Wow, you took your time and all I can say is a really big thank you!
Not many like you! This information is great and I'm going to read your words carefully a couple of times and try to change everything that you've said!
Feels like people don't want to point out what they think is wrong but you've nailed it and helped me a lot!
Honestly... Take care!
