New track that I just uploaded...check it out...if you have a couple of minutes..

i think you should write a song and sing it,

it will give the music character,

I'm listening to this on nice monitors in my studio. Sounds good to me, no major complaints on the mix. There are certainly things I would do differently, but that falls in the area of subjective taste rather than you doing something objectively wrong.

The only problem I have with the track, is that it is too repetitive and isn't really "going anywhere". If there were vocals it would add some variation and interest and it might be fine as is. Not amazing, mind you, but fine.

But an instrumental track really needs to do more than this to keep up interest.

Which makes mea bit sad, actually. I mean, I keep hearing people making hobby music on their computers, and it's almost always the same thing: they slap together a loop and repeat it for x minutes. Done.

It's quick and easy to do this, but unfortunately the result is but a cheap imitation of "real" music too. Everytime the exact same thing repeats twice, the song dies a little. Repeat it four times and the listeners start to lose interest. Eight times, and the angels weep.

In other words, what's in there actually sounds pretty nice, but there's too little composition/arrangement/performance/production value added to it, so it ends up sounding like a first stab at a demo idea, meant to be developed into something more substantial later.

I'd really like to hear what it would develop into in it's "final form", instead of just this. Because it actually sounds like you'd make some good stuff, if you just put in the required amount of effort.

Perhaps you are too quick to start mixing and getting the sound right? A tip that would probably help you, is to COMPLETELY ignore mixing and just work on the composition for your next track. I mean, don't put a compressor or reverb or anything on anything, just arrange the music. Only when you feel the composition is done can you get to mixing and making it sound right.

This approach moves your focus from fiddling to get the perfect sound, to composition and arrangement. And then there's actually something there worth fiddling with later.

Try it. And keep us informed on the result!

Why does everyone believe they can just do things and it will be all pro and shit? You want to know what I think? Go spend years studying music composition, theory, and production, or keep making sub semi pro stuff and expecting everyone to think it's any good. Granted the world is packed full of simpletons so I mean wth woa Vicky can be a millionaire f it get some.
