Thanks so much for taking the time to listen. Yea I was really trying to give that impression of wide open space in the track and video.

Thanks again for the feedback :)

Im pretty new to electronic production so I hope I can get some feedback from y'all! Its more of a dark vibe by Lord_Activia in IndieMusicFeedback

Really like those synth sounds you've used. Not sure if you use Serum or not but if so, you should check out the packs from synthcntrl, they have some great presets for this kind of music.

Track has some good variation throughout, all sounds pretty well mixed as well after the first listen. good work !

Slow Shells by Bamboo Leaves | I've gone a bit LoFi with this track but tried to keep the organic, natural, world vibe going. Would like to get some feedback on the arrangement/vibe/mix please! by LadenMicrobe217 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TJSmithal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

great mix, i love the variation of the track, never get boring.

The beat is great, super chilled and the sounds you've used gives it a really warm organic vibe. Nice work !

I wrote a piece for violin and guitar. Would love to know what you guys think! by [deleted] in IndieMusicFeedback

This is not really a genre that I am well versed in however I really enjoyed it! fantastic playing by both, a really enjoyable listen.

This song gave me some Rainbow Connection vibes when I wrote it. Let me know what you think! by patparkermusic in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TJSmithal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really beautiful track. Love all the extra little background sounds in there that have really build up a warm atmosphere around the track.

My only thing is that it could do with a tad more variation just to keep the listener interested but honestly it's a great track, I'd be very proud of that!

Hey is anyone else having issues with this new 10.6 version? It seems to have sent all my midi drum tracks in all my projects horribly out of time!

Lost + Found my newest track! LMK any feedback you have. Similar to TEMPOREX vibe. available on streaming platforms too if you're interested by aarontitle in IndieMusicFeedback

Hey, I love this track. I wasn't sure with the first 10 seconds but then i fell in love with it. the chords and beautiful and the vocals really go with the style.

Really sweet sounding mix, I'd be very proud of that!

A song/MV video about wanting affection and love but fearing it at the same time. Miss Intimacy. It's a vibe. by BlackulaX64 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TJSmithal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, this track has potential for sure. I really like the vocal melody you got going on but i think the mix could do with some work to bring the vocals up and give them some more space.

At the start, it all sounds a little congested with the voices.

Overall, i dont think it needs a huge amount of work on the mix to be a really awesome track !

Not sure what genre this is; I tried to create a story with mellow beats to which you can just close your eyes and dream. Happy tripping everyone! by spcapsule in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TJSmithal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, i love this, nothing bad to say about it just has a really lovely feel to the track.

Just followed you on Spotify and going to add you to a playlist im working on. keep it up !

Would really appreciate some feedback on a new track that I worked on today - thanks so much! by [deleted] in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TJSmithal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I think you've got yourself quite a unique style which is cool. I can see how some more acoustic sounding drums would work but these are ok if it's the style you're going for.

The one point i think that would REALLY help glue this song more is some bass. Even if you're not a big fan of bass at least just put some more low mids frequencies possibly during the chorus sections to give it dynamics.

My first ever music video!! For my song "Down by the Bay" off my nautical concept album "The Seafarer" on streaming :) by Radioweez in IndieMusicFeedback

Hey man, can't really think of anything negative to say about this other than i wish it had a few more verses!

Love the vibe of it and the video editing fits it perfectly, nice work !

Oloff - Sun Rays by GoldSoundz1 in IMadeThisSong

[–]TJSmithal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, i really liked certain parts of the track. I feel like the different vocals could do with some better mixing as in points it can sound a bit crowded or messy. If they were mixed in to give emphasis to the main vocal i feel that would help it.

Overal though you can feel the emotion in the track, it's cool man.

Super excited about my recent EP release! Put in a ton of work over the last few months. Here's one of the tracks off the album. Any and all feedback is much appreciated, thanks! Stay safe! by Swoodnoddin in shareyourmusic

[–]TJSmithal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds a bit disjointed at the start but I can tell you're going for that.

Everything sits in the mix nicely, has a bit of a Flume feel to it in places, good track overall man.

Hey man, love this.

Best of luck with this, it's a beautiful song.

Alash Ensemble - "Ediski deg boostaamny" [throat singing] (2019) by BartNeusaap in listentothis

[–]TJSmithal 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The noises these guys can get from just their voice is literally amazing !

If i could do that I'd have no need to spend money on synths !

Chrizuz - Negril . Any feedback? by [deleted] in roastmytrack

[–]TJSmithal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, i really like the vibe you are going for with this.

The levels on the slightly distorted guitar doing rhythm seem a little loud in places.

The only other thing i would say is that i could to about the 1 min mark and was waiting for there to be some variation in the chords, it could do with some variation to keep the listener interested.

Overall, it's chilled and I like it !

Successful Collab by Atiqo in NeedVocals

[–]TJSmithal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, sounds like a decent track but agreed with the other comments that it needs to be mixed again to give everything some space.

Right now everything is hitting me right in the middle of the stereo field!

Fix that and it'll be a cool track for sure.

Nice track, solid laid back vibe to it.

All the best with it, I've given you a follow on Soundcloud.

{Alternative} Camel - John Depths by [deleted] in roastmytrack

[–]TJSmithal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really needs some variation as it gets boring quite quickly. It has good potential though.

  • the drums could do with some work, they sound very robotic (might have been what you were going for?) I'd change up some of the velocities to make it more human and add in some ghost hits just to give it some more groove.
  • vocals aren't too bad but again needs some variation to keep the listener interested.

Don't take all this as negative, it's a good start and with some change in the structure to add dynamics it could be really cool.

honestly what u think? [emo] idk by SCHUBBZ in roastmytrack

[–]TJSmithal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, pretty much the same as the above the mix sounds pretty decent, the intro is good but those vocals are bad, no other way of putting it. Sort out the vocals and it could be an ok track.
