Here's my new electro lala. Not finally mixed nor mastered but the arrangement is finished for me. The tonal balance is a heavily on the bright side at the moment and the while track lacks the mastering pressure, but I would be happy to hear comments about the musical stuff before I invest in the final stages.

I will post the final version at the weekend.

Enjoy...

hey som i gave ur track a listen since you were kind enough to do the same for me. Anyways i like what you got goin on but i think some of your sounds clash a little too much, makes it a little rough on the ears. Also, the second buildup is too long, and the last drop should be edited so that it isn't the exact same as the first drop. But i like a lot of your sounds, and it shows promise.

Hey Oliver.
I don't know if it is the sound of the main synth or the way it is being played but I found it a bit obtrusive.
I did enjoy the break down around half way and the buildup until the main synth came back in.

Thanks for sharing.

Hey guys, thanks for your advice. I added an overlay for the main synth and delays, changed some notes and corrected some little things here and there. The track is now finally mixed and mastered. I did not delete the unmastered version in case anybody wants to compare the two versions.

Hey Som

I've listened and added some comments to the soundcloud stem.

One thing i forgot to add is that I think the closed hat you've got going on 8th notes (I think) could do with some stereo widening. Sounds too central.

Like the track overall!
