Hi guys,
here's my new track for August:

I'm not done mixing it, but I thought I would post it already so people could maybe give me some feedback.
Hope you like it!
cheers

Hey Kamih,
Not really my style, but I'm going to respond in a lame attempt at pleasing the forum karma gods that control responses to my posts. I really like the spacey stab that enters in at 1:19, it's well built and catchy. I would prefer a punchier kick - yours is kind of in the background and mute. For this genre, that's probably fine but I would make it hit harder, maybe duck the bassline behind it, blah, blah, blah. Good luck!

Hi Hamish,
thanks for taking the time to listen and comment! :)
I intentionally didn't make the kick too strong since I wanted this track to be mellow/ambient.

no worries... as I said, I'm not a big mellow/ambient guy so I understand your choice of a kick. As a (final) note, I had this playing from the top with headphones on after my last post, doing some other stuff online, totally forgot what I was listening to and really started nodding my head to it. Maybe I am a mellow/ambient guy?!?
