Neds depth, but a good start.

The drums are pretty nice, but the wub is quite obv a WIP, I'd reccomend distorting it quite a bit more (w/ distortion/ bitcrush/ granulator) needs some more sub bass IMO, and the wub needs some more variation, but that'll come as you develop them and branch out. Liked the garage touch to this track keep it up, but clearly a starting point. (though I'll be keen to see how you develop)

eimyz responds:

Thanks a lot for the criticism, I'll try to improve.

Not bad, good synths.

However, your wub needs bass OR you need to sidechain it with a heavy sub. The drums were good, but normally a DS snare has more verb. I'd also reccomend workin on some more wubs. What program do you use? :)

Numi responds:

Thanks for the review! Constructive criticism is always boss :D I'mma PM you so I can ask a few questions. Glad you thought it was decent! :D

Vocals need some work.

Maybe bitcrush, maybe more 'verb, but it just sounded stalker-ish rather than deep and guttural. Good potential though.

AngelofPeace responds:

Thanks for the input.

Kick arse.

Maybe the bass drum could be rounded off a little? Bit more EQing to take down the resonance on that thing. All in all great though.

bobiscoo32 responds:

Thank you so much man! All great suggestions (especially on the bass kick, I've been trying to find a way to add a reverb with no wet sounds that still sounds good to no avial). By "that thing" do you mean the snare because i could do that easily (PM me if it is please). Once again man, thanks, now ill go check out your tunes :)

Loved it.

Drums/ percussion all lovely, loved the basses, though some need work, because they stick out. I felt the pads may have been too soft. Great vox though. Bring the pad up when everything's in I think, make it more mid-ish as well perhaps? Felt a little tinny. All in all great though.

Th0ma5 responds:

Thank You very much, these are some great tips, will surely look on to them as I continue to finish this tune!
Thanks again!

A lot of positive points.

Great drums, great ideas, great atmospherics. The mid basses need some work though, the early mid bass overpowered the mix, I felt it should have been slightly lower. Liked it very much from 1:14 after. Maybe some more mid-basses using distortion, granulators etc? Lot of potential.

deendeon1000 responds:

thank you for the positives, ill work on the mid- basses

Nice!

Mastering does need some work, but don't be so critical of your own stuff before anyone's said anything. I loved it, hope you make more in this vein. I'd be interested to know where you felt the mastering went wrong. If you want to bring the vocals out, sidechain the cymbals to some compression on them, so the higher end bends around them. But that's an artistic choice. This won't get the credit it deserves, but I really enjoyed, ending especially.

Kreos responds:

Wow, thank's! I may be a little pessimist about my works, yeah...
I did some songs like this, I can recomend some if you want (not too much to look at anyways).
I felt the mastering was wrong becase I had to low down the volume basically 50%, and because I had a lot of problems to make it sound decently mastered... can't right now name any part.
I didn't understand the part of the vocals...
I'm glad you enjoyed it, more if you liked that much the ending (:

Thanks for the review!

Needs sidechainin'

The drums are lost in the compression, sidechain the synths to the drums, so the drums are brought out. Other wise, very nice!

MOAR MASTERIN

Things for you to look into: Side-chaining the bass and drums. Adding in higher parts. Strengthening the snare. Vocalising the hi-hat, Using less vibrato. Writing more tonally centered bass parts.

metalheadmarch responds:

Indeed I will, ty for some critique...I'm still floating around aimlessly when it comes to figuring out what genre to classify my crap..I'll be sure to check out your stuff n vote!
