My track wants to have sex with your brain

Tell me what you think!

Bitraete - Bigger Bricks

I really like it up till 1.12 then it gets too complex for my taste. Also sounds as if it is the mastering channel is having some problems digesting all the layers. It's a matter of taste of course, but I would probably just keep it more minimalistic/simple and stick to what you've got going up until 1.12 and evolve that into something

Yeah am thinking I might do another more simple version.

love the thread title! gonna check oot ya track...

but im straight, dog?

Your straightness means nothing to my track.

Bass is too full on - it doesn't allow the track to breath. Yep bass is just way too strong. Musically I like it. At 2 mins it breaths a bit more. Frequencies are falling over each other at 2.51. Needs to breath you need take the brightness off that lead and do some panning. Musically quite pleasant and enjoyable but the mix needs a lot of work.

Rapist track.

After listening.

I enjoyed the sexy time with your track. Very nice. Its like Clark with less mental beats but I liked the regularity to it.

don't like the drum sounds, too weak and low in the mix for me. liked the arped synth sound and the mood of the track.

what is it with the compression? every track i played on here recently sounded waaaaaaaaaaaay overcompressed.

Thanks for the feedback. Definitely need to work on my mixing skills.

Agreed, compression needs tinkering.

Well could be people using compression. But also soundcloud streams in 128 I think.

Ahhh, that would explain some things!

I recommend people download the track then because it's in 320kbps.

Nah a good mixed track will sound good on Soundcloud or anywhere. Soundcloud will not destroy a track that sounds decent at 320 or wav.

I liked this, do some panning and eq the sounds so it doesn't clash. It sounds like you have a bunch of sounds with a lot of mid-bass going, cut it on some of them, (at least when they're playing at the same time), I don't think the part at 2:51 is particulary problematic (maybe because of the higher frequency sounds), but around the 1:30 mark my ears implode! Did you mix the tune with all the tracks peaking and slap a vintage varmer or something similar at master channel to level it all out? Anyway, nice catchy little ditty this. Well done, apart from the mashed sound
