Anyone? 

[Shadowgod2]

Sorry i tried it didn't like it

[Botsareus]

Cool. Better then nothing.

[Botsareus]

What is wrong with it you think?

[Botsareus]

Oh, looky here, my soundcloud artist bio magically changed from graphic artist to illustrator. I did not even know what the word illustrator meant until a visit to Ringling school of art.

[Shadowgod2]

What is wrong with it you think?

just not my type of music. too randomy for my tastes like rock or metal, they give me headaches if i'm not playing games like halo or something.

[Testlund]

I have to agree with Shadowgod here. Not your best track.

There are very little modern electronic music that I like. I prefer genres from certain time periods, like electronica, house, italo disco and electro from the 1980's, new beat from around 1987, trance, house and techno from the 1990's and progressive/electro house from between 2005 - 2010.

I haven't bought or downloaded anything since 2010, with the exception for a few tracks from people I follow on SoundCloud. Speaking of which; there are a couple of great mixes I found a few days ago that I'm going to listen to tonight while getting ready for a Halloween club night. Highly recommended!

Track needs softening then 2nd element added...
Yeah, If I still had Mixcraft then i'd do that for you, but my trial expired, and I cant be bothered to buy it yet...
But yeah, just soften/deepen that piano a bit, then add some bass guitar, its subtle but nessisary (I was going to say add bass sounds, but then you might add drums...common mistake.)
And no, im not some sort of super-uber proffessional music composer, Just like I DO NOT own a school botsareus...Seriously, how did you even come up with me owning a school??? And surely I'd understand the code better if it was based off assembly if I was the right age to own a school :/

[Botsareus]

I know, but purpose was served.

[Botsareus]

For Testlund: I think I made the mistake of mixing it harmonically. It is either you do that well or not mix the tracks at all.

[Testlund]

I think your mixing is OK. I'm not that good with it. Shaping sounds and make them sit well together in a song is what I find hard, which is why I chosed the name "SoundStruggler".

When it comes to melody and what sounds you want to use, that's down to personal taste. In that regard I don't think it matters much what people think. You got to express yourself the way you want to.

Spike individual sound components when mixing, either with pitch, a change in frequency, speed or volume...
