nice synths bro
>>
>>71616054
The mix is very abrasive, you need to bring the kick out, it's drowned in the whole mix. A lot of unwanted mids.
>>
>>71616054
Thanks. I'm really new to Electro making,
and I'm just trying to find my sound.
>>
>>71616212
Great, didn't though of this, Was trying to equalize High and low freqs, totally forgot about mid ones.

Hey, I'm a beginner and my stuff usually sucks, but I wanted to ask you guys for some feedback on a work in progress

https://clyp.it/ppqkgj3f

I wanted to make a track that could feel somewhere between something organic and something synthetic. So I guess it's ambient house or something, I don't know. Tell me if I need to correct something, I'm especially shit at mixing and stuff
>>
>>71616316
Don't post here if you're shit. Kys fag, and gtfo.
>>
>>71616316
this is cool
sounds like aphex twin and boards of canada
https://clyp.it/l5043aoa
am I Justice yet??
>>
>>71616316
Yo, this sounds really great for a beginner man. You can do a bit more to spice things up. Also sounds a bit too quiet. But yeah this is pretty fuckin good.
>>
https://clyp.it/omrmjcwt

Any recommendations as far as the mix?

I recently discovered that putting drum and foley sounds in individual audio tracks (as opposed to just having them all in a drum rack) makes them sound so much better for some reason. That's how I got all the wierd scratchy percussion for this track.
>>
>>71616316
Yeah this is good. Reminds me a lot of Aphex Twin.

>>71617098
It's really quiet but other than that sounds great.
>>

>listen to someone better than me at making music
>give up
why even try really
>>
>>71617098
Simply goddamn amazing man. I'd say master it louder but this shit can get EASILY featured on one of those famous youtube channels like syrebral vibes or suicide sheep or majestic casual. Do something with this it's fuckin amazing man. Also at 2:17 it sounds like 2 of your chords are clashing, and in general I don't know if this part fits with the rest of the track before that.

>>71617136
The intro was fuckin sweet but the rest is way too distorted and out of key.

>>71617271
Because if you don't try you'll never get better.
>>
>>71617136
The kick that comes in around the the 1:30 mark has too much high end. I think maybe a nice 808 would sound better. Also the snare sounds really generic EDM-y. Just a personal preference but I hate when """future bass"""/trap producers use basic drums like that.

Really cool track tho. The main drop part is sick. Some really cool percussion in there.
>>
>>71617331
first guy you replied tho. Thanks a lot for the support man! Honestly means a lot to hear that from a stranger. I find it so hard to judge my music objectively after working on it for so long.

Yeah I tried to force in another rhodes sample in there. Will have a mess around with transposing it to sound better
>>
Anybody here making IDM. I'm working on an Autechre style track with lots of percussive elements and textures( no link because I'm still sequencing it). Any tips for that typeof production?

Hope you like it, feel free to leave your opinion on the track. Show some love to the south cone!

All feedback will be returned and appreciated

>>71617431
why is it always the bad producers that spam soundcloud link in /prod/
>>
>>71617431
just give up now. making music isn't really your thing.
>>
>>71617431
is that Chance's actual voice or did you manipulate it? never listened to him before but he sounds like an offbrand Quas here

This is my first time posting in one of these threads and I was wondering if I could get feedback on this drumless shoegaze track I did.

http://vocaroo.com/i/s1pG8meJz0bY
>>
>>71616316
could do without the fake vinyl noise, but otherwise it's really wonderful
>>
What are your favorite midi controllers?
>>
Fiddling around with some ideas tonight:

https://clyp.it/1ey53a1u
>>
>>71622527
Trying to figure out the best way to add some bass to this. Considering using my actual bass for once.
>>
>>71621448
It sounds like random pads playing random notes all mashed together, sometimes it sounds harmonious sometimes it gets too much. 7 minutes of this is way too much.

>>71622527
Holy shit man, those fuckin strings and yeah, an acoustic bass would probably go great with this. What did you sample?
>>
>>71622956
Henry Mancini and a couple collected breakbeats.
>>
>>71623155
Unrelated but if those strings are Henry Mancini that means that John Williams probably arranged those.
>>
>tfw your own music finally clicks
>>
how do you guys deal with the "i just looped 4 bars from some jazz song, put drums over it and now I feel like a talentless hack" syndrome?

also where did you guys learn theory, you all make some pretty funky shit

I also tried to be different

https://clyp.it/pdgpkuxi

hows this
>>
first time ever trying to create a very basic drum track, let me know what you think

https://clyp.it/dazj1wgl
>>
Why does Live 9 sometimes play a note way louder than the others and lowering the velocity doesn't really do anything? Is there a way to fix it?
>>
>>71624570
I'm not sure how the parts are connected. I think the first part just sounds like you thought I'll make a minimal techno-modern classical track, but it's not a very considered blend. Specifically, I'm not a fan of the stuttered percussion which lets you know it's not real and sorta breaks the drums out of the rest of the song.I don't how you would develop the idea, but its begging for some big 'n low trombones to burst in. Second part sounds like it's about to be obnoxiously catchy if you want to push it in that direction. Both parts are pretty unique, but it doesn't really feel like it has a defining idea yet.
>>
I made a remix of that Rhianna X Calvin harris track but with pleb filters
https://clyp.it/exesa44d
>>
>>71623500
Interesting. I know he worked as a member of Mancini's orchestra but I've not heard of Williams ghostwriting for him.
>>
>>71621909
That wasn't a fake vinyl noise man, it's from a sample haha
>>
What about this? My first try in something slower. It's live and all analog.
https://clyp.it/wtji0aez
>>
>>71625420
>all analog
*except two vocal samples

found my 4 years old project
/mu/ is into such stuff as i know
>>
>>71624683
That's nice
I'd like to try to do something with these drum, can you upload wav?
>>
Any feedback is appreciated, but I'm mostly looking for tips on how to make the composition more interesting and coherent. Also, I feel like the melodies are too cheesy. What do you guys think?

>Deep House, Chill
https://clyp.it/zcmdzvyx
>>
>>71622117
Alesis v125 is an amazing value at less than $200, pads are super responsive and the beta version of ableton has native support. Semi weighted keys too feel nice and I have a small desk so this fits well. Looked at the m-audio code 25 too but although cooler, was more expensive and people said they had issues. That said, the maschine is the best I've played but I'm not made of money. A good computer I find goes a lot further than a midi controller.
>>
>>71625878
Add more movement... Hits w long reverb sound nice and filter sweeps on your snare maybe over time to build up, don't particularly like deep house cause of that droning feeling like im on a musical hamster wheel... I always want something else to happen instead of the next verse of the same thing w different parts
>>
>>71625878
not bad, however, you really need to make the bassline stand out during the heavier sections, the bass should be focus of the track. Could also use a little more variation.

>>71625420
Doesn't really go anywhere, it's alright.

>>71625456
meh

could I grab some feedback for this?
https://clyp.it/rjdencpt
>>
>>71615638
Sounds very amateurish right now, could use some better drums.
I like it when the distortion comes in though.

>>71616054
Some of the notes are not timed correctly.
Synth needs some eq.
Kick sounds like a fart honestly.

>>71616316
The afx influence is very apparent here, which isn't a bad thing.
It's good for a beginner, keep practicing.
The track needs an evolving element though, I sat there waiting for something to happen for the most part.

>>71616459
The synth you're using needs more bass to do what you're going for. The sample needs some eq (cut out some of the highs).
Some cowbells would add to the rhythm here.

>>71617098
This is really good.

>>71617136
It has potential, but some of the effects feel out of place, the distortion for example as someone else mentioned.
Work on your music theory.

>>71622527
This was really good to me, since it's a style I enjoy a lot. Made me think of Oceans's 11.

>>71624570
It feels like you're forcing yourself to create.
Like there's not really a direction you're going into.
I'd say if you're a beginner/novice, try to find some artists that inspire you and study how they build tracks.

>>71624683
Not a bad drum loop.

>>71625036
super excellent my man keep it up xd

>>71625420
Needs eq on the highs.
Work on the composition.
Find new drums.

>>71625878
Eq out the click from the kick, or find a new one. Softer kicks are better for the genre you're going for.
The bassline is nice but could use some variety every once in a while.

>>71626185
Sounds very rich.
Needs a better climax.
Kick needs some eq in my opinion
>>
Hey, im trying to make some 8 mbs albums.
What is the best way to do this effectively?
Thanks
