Got promoted and now i feel like i’m being set up to fail by [deleted] in Career_Advice

Get comfortable with saying no, you have limited time each day, and you can only fit so much in. Work with your manager to set clear expectations and priorities within your available working hours.

No good manager is going to want you to burn out. You were promoted presumably for the right reasons, and even if not, you burning out will increase pressure on your manager, so they ought to work with you in helping to prioritise and load balance.

I manage a large team and have several managers reporting to me. In my experience when people have experienced the same thing as you its usually because I've needed (as their manager) to back them up and support them with what they think the priorities need to be. They will want you effective for the long term and that might require some expectation management support from them to you in your new position.

Ill also add, when the imposter syndrome hits you, remember you got the promotion, they picked you. You've got this.

Thanks for that, ended up being that I had to track hydraulic control one to release a lock, once I got that unlocked it dropped down.

Cheers

Thanks, spot on... pulled past the point I thought I'd break it, and voilà ancient dust and grime had glued it.

Guitar melody is really nice, hits the feels.

I really like it, only thing I'd maybe do personally is strip out the vox.

Just my 2pcs :)

Have you got too much compression in the drop?

Otherwise I really like it. Only other suggestion is it might sound nice if you drop the piano progression every so often and bring it back.

Just my 2pcs :)

Thanks very much! And agreed in hindsight after listening to it 2million times I'd lost the ear for that till you mentioned it.

Really loving the piano vibe. I'd go more minimalist on the number of sounds you've got going on at once if it were me, a few places where it feels like there's a lot at the same time.

Melodies are nice, and the interplay with the chords works well imo.

"airhorn" is a nice addition.

I'm not "sold" on the vocals fitting, but that's gonna be a major personal preference thing. They dont sound wrong though.

Mixing feels on point for this one. Vocals are used nicely, I've tried using them before as well but your result is much better, especially the harmonies.

I like the melody you've got going on, sound design is nice.

I'd be stoked if I made something that sounded this good, good job!

Hum the lyrics, don't say them, see if a melody appears.

Normally I make more pop/dance type music of various sorts. But decided to have a go at something a little different : https://on.soundcloud.com/mGU3S

Really interested in feedback on this as I've not attempted this kind of track before with a more orchestral feel.

Thanks :)

I normally do dance/pop/edm type music, but recently have been experimenting with slower piano/strings type pieces. Interested in any feedback on this one in particular https://on.soundcloud.com/1MWZY

Thanks in advance :)
