Got a track up. Just a draft though. Please let me know what you think to improve.

I don't really know much deep house so not sure how helpful I can be! Anyway, nice sounding kick, and the rhodes are cool too. I like the key change about half way through. I might suggest separating the rhodes just a little more from the bass, but that could be a subjective thing, and maybe boost the wobble bass around ~5min mark (just a fraction). Good stuff though!

Actually, on further listening, not sure if the bass is fine as it is

[portunderground]

Ok. Thanks for the comments. Will look in to it.

I agree, the rhodes maybe needs some finer eqing to help separation in my inexperienced opinion.
Nice groove and does what deep house should do (ie be deep).
Fairly standard progressions, so overall
- a solid track, if a little uninspiring.

Alright thanks man. Will work on it after my finals.

I guess it sounds kind of mashed up. Use too much compression...

Around 2 min I liked it best. maybe you should find your way back to those chords after the other excursions. It seems a bit overcompressed, at least I´m hearing some rumble in the mid range. You might want to try to pull the volume of the chords a bit back. Personally I´d try to free some space so there is room for silence too.

[portunderground]

Yep agreed, the compression is too much. I was pretty stuck with the chord progression though. but yeah, it could work.

thanks for the feedback!

I have another track that was a little older but revived it.

Not really deep house though, but there are still elements of it. Tried to use ambient sounds to get the urban, city feeling. Feedback welcomed

sounds very classic, like some older house tunes. I like it.
