Very catchy synths throughout the whole number...not a classical electro, this is a disco/trance/electro mix...

Like those different drums and the flowing...

Good track, respect, Danke

Yo. Not seen you on here in ages. It's been so long that I've probably uploaded something like 30 tracks since then. I hit 50 a long time ago so keep having to remove one every time I upload a new one.

Anyway, your track is a good one. Here's some more detail:

I like the opening synth riff and the fat kick. Nice space on the drums to allow the grooves to form within. Then various long, low bass notes.

0:42 we get more pad-based lead work, stil with that main synth riff in the background.

0:57 and we're into a bit of a pop sort of chorus with that new, uplifting synth part. Then a drum break and it's all still very melodic. This isn't quite trance, perhaps more 80s synthpop with a more modern feel. Hands in the air stuff for sure.

2:12 we come back down to that initial synth part and the bass is still fat.

Not sure what you couldn't quite figure out with this one. It all makes sense to me and I don't have many suggestions or criticisms. It's a little commercial to be something I can absolutely love but will be very popular with people more into that sort of sound. Quite a few of the synths have a little bit too much fizz and brightness for me but not to worry (that's not really even a criticism, just a declaration of my preferences).

The structure and changes suggest there could easily be vocals added. Any plans for that?

Mastering is fine. It pumps but isnt too loud, thank God (and Buddha and Mohammed). Probably better than some/most of my mastering though it's a very different sound from most of my stuff.

Overall: big congrats!

Teutonic mastery.. sort of trance and electronica. very smartly put together and mastered in a pantheon of panning.
nice work

Description : Two guitar tracks and lots of reverb on both. Just panned and reduced the volumes a little. Oh! - also this track was inspired from NeaMera, so ten minutes! Enjoy!

Description : I wanted to create something like the track Beautiful by Eminem but with a really melodic Dr Dre type hip hop instrumental with a retro 80's vibe. This is what I came up with. Hope you enjoy it. Since I am allowed only 1 upload per day here, I edited the previous track with this new upload I made today.

Description : Lullaby. Short, sweet and very simple ambient/indie. Four guitar tracks only, messing around in open D tuning.. Any more laid back and it would fall over.
