    • i dig it. i think you need to cut the freestyle section down to about 1/4 and place your chorus between each part to make it more "catchy"lvl_13
    • hashtagged and signed-someone with no idea and never actually made music, just listen to a ton of it :Dlvl_13
    • yeah thats good advice, thanks! even if it was more of a break down / instrumental without the actual chorus / lyrics on it maybe... so there's a gap. thanks!!mantrakid
    • fckuing smooth.keewee
    • glue compress all your drums, either cut some of the bass from the kick or shorten the decay, needs more dirt over all.. put a compressor on the master.autoflavour
    • vocal needs to sit higher in the mix.autoflavour
    • seems to be a lot happening in the mid range, pads and vocals are competing for space. pads down, vocals up, eq them to have more space.autoflavour
    • nice sound tho otherwiseautoflavour
    • damn, thanks autoflavour! Ill spend some time on a proper mix with neutron this weekend, would you be down to re-review it even just super quick? hugs!mantrakid
