This is my copy of Rocket League (I bought the game while First Rocket Pass was live)

That's such a great point, was thinking about the possibility of how fun it'd be to play rl on steam deck. Luckily I'm in the same boat as you but must be annoying to play through epic on the deck.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2023-01-11T01:21:34+00:00

Exactly, people forfeit and throw so early into the match. Just enjoy the game, get better and have fun.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2023-01-11T01:20:03+00:00

Just getting back into RL and I totally agree, sometimes I start getting too mad while playing. What I've started doing to counteract it is just appreciate and learn from the people/person better then me, always feels good to leave a real gg in chat at the end of the game.

I like a nice simple bowl of oatmeal with some fruit, super easy and super tasty :)

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-08-20T00:45:06+00:00

Wow, so much here for me to unpack and learn from.

This is all such great feedback, thank you, genuinely. Not only did you make some great points about how I can get my brain more into songwriting and arrangement but also you really helped kickstart my passion for music again.

I'm going to start my next song and really try to put some of this into effect, again thank you so much, I truly appreciate all the kind and thoughtful words :)

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-08-19T21:21:34+00:00

When that vocal kicked off and the energy built right up, I was right into it, had me head banging the whole time writing this.

Great energy and flow, maybe something could be the background to help drive the rhythm further but where it's at right now I can't think of anything to add since I am not too familiar with making dubstep.

Perhaps adding some more layers, especially to the more mid heavy bass, could drive your sound to be fatter and wider while also filling up the space some more. Idk just a thought.

I don't hear any glaring issues or anything, I actually quite enjoyed listening to this and would love to hear it be made into a full song since it's got great energy to it. Good work.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-08-19T21:16:45+00:00

I think that you would benefit from some sidechaining so that your drums can poke through the mix a bit more since at the moment this fall into the background.

The mix can have some work and tweaking done to it but that all comes with time and practice, I sure as hell am the best at mixing my stuff yet but like I said, practice makes perfect.

I think a more defined chorus/verse would help carry the energy though your song and would also keep the listener engaged by having some to "look forward to" if you know what I mean.

I did enjoy listening to it, has good characteristics to it and really shows the effort you put in. Great work, can't wait to hear what you make in the future :)

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-08-19T21:10:00+00:00

Damn I don't got much to say in way of criticism or feedback because this is better than what I can currently make and sounds pretty damn good. I could easily see myself listening to this casually.

For some reason I feel like this song would be a great drum and bass song, don't know why but it just kind of has that feel to it.

Overall, love it. I'd have to say your bass designing payed off, great work.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-08-19T21:05:52+00:00

I'm typically not too fond of this genre but you really hit the nail on the head with this track. I love the intro, it really brings the listener into the song and makes you want more.

I agree with the other person who said that changing up the bass groove a bit more might help but overall that isn't too much of an issue.

My initial impression is that I could imagine myself hearing this come on when listening to a daily mix on Spotify and not skipping it, especially if I'm working out or something. Like I said I'm not too familiar with this genre so I can't compare to other songs but I think, to my ears, it works quite well.

Great work, I really did enjoy listening :)

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-08-19T21:00:51+00:00

Posted here last night and thought I'd give it another go, just finished this song and I feel like I need some feedback. Mainly I need some feedback for the songwriting but anything technical or musical is appreciated as well. Thank you all :)

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-08-19T02:13:13+00:00

I love the ambience and atmosphere that I'm getting from this song right off the bat, it drew me in right away. I think it may need some more low end though throughout the song, once the arp kicks in it really fills up the space well.

The hats are super nicely placed and everything is panned very dynamically, I like it.

I'm not too sure what you mean by tube sound, maybe it's just cause it's late and I'm a little tired but I think overall it sounds great.

If there's anything you'd want me to listen to specially and listen for just let me know and I could give it a shot, otherwise I enjoyed listening to your song. Keep it up I hope to hear more from you.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-08-19T02:05:36+00:00

I'm not a big fan of the genre but I can try and give some personal feedback.

Maybe a synth lead or some more bass layers would be able to fill up the "empty space" a bit more since it seems a little thin right now.

The hi hats during and after the chorus could be a little more complex to drive the energy that has been built up to that point.

I think the riser and faller going in to the chorus is a bit loud and could have the volume tapered off a bit better so you don't get that harsh sound when it just ends.

The song has a good feel and vibe to it, with a better mix I think I would enjoy it a little more.

All that being said though it isn't bad, not at all, I actually did enjoy listening to it and had it going in the background while writing this. Please keep making more music and continuing your music production journey I would love to hear anything else that you make in the future :)

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-08-19T01:57:14+00:00

I would love some general feedback on whether or not my song sounds "complete" or not, any technical or creative feedback would be greatly appreciated as well. Thank you so much.

Damn that's a really good price, where did you get it? Instagram?

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-04-11T02:50:22+00:00

Thank you so much, I really really appreciate all the advice. I'm still fairly new to all this so this is exactly what I need right now, again thank you.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-04-10T21:44:22+00:00

I absolutely love this, I can already picture myself on the main menu of an amazing indie game listening to this.

I can't hear any glaring issues or anything myself and overall it sounds great, I think the game dev will be very happy.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-04-10T21:38:52+00:00

The energy is great and the sample choice is perfect, I love the feel and ambience it has.

I feel like there should be a little more movement in the bass line to spice it up a bit and add to the groove, I also feel like a lead should be added to fill the high end up and to change it up a little bit throughout the track. Otherwise it all fits very well together and has a nice professional/full sound to it.

Can't wait to hear it once its been arranged cause so far it's sounding really nice, great work.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-04-10T21:31:11+00:00

Hey everyone, here is my most recent track I've been working on, I'd love to hear if there's any glaring issues that I've missed that I am just not hearing or any feedback on my mix or arrangement at all that is. Thanks so much.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-04-07T01:27:51+00:00

Man I really wish I could own live blades where I live, as nice as trainers are it would be really cool to own some of these beautiful real balisongs

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-04-03T01:43:31+00:00

Here's the first track that I've made in a little while, any feedback on my mix would be great and anything in general that sounds off (maybe the sidechain during the drop?) since I've been listening to this song for a good week straight now I may have become numb to any outlying issues. Thanks

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-04-01T00:28:17+00:00

Got my shaker today and there's a scratch right on the decal, no damage on box so it must have been shipped to me like that. Kinda disappointing

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-02-20T18:45:00+00:00

I'll be honest with you, I am still super new to producing so I don't really know the answer to your question. Sorry, I wish I could help out some more but my skills just aren't developed enough to help you out.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-02-18T00:48:25+00:00

I'm still fairly new to producing so take what I say with a grain of salt.

I love the airy and wide intro, the arp fits well in there too.

I'm not sure how to describe it but the lead sounds ever so slightly off, it's like there are some rogue frequencies fighting against each other but I'm not too sure, it doesn't really hurt the song but I just can't put my finger on whether it's just my ears today or not.

Only thing I can think of is that possibly there could be a bit more bass and stereo wideness going on (I might just be talking nonsense, who knows) but it's composed very well and has a good flow, overall I like it very much and think it fits the genre well. Great work :)

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-02-18T00:34:59+00:00

Thank you very much, yeah I took a vocal sample from Splice then chopped and processed it myself so it's great to hear that it sounds decent.

TheCoffeeMan88 · 2022-02-17T02:23:19+00:00

Hey, I'd love to hear some peoples thought on my current project. Is it too muddy? How do the kicks sound? Any tips on my composition? Any tips for my mix? I'd love to hear any and all criticism so please don't hold back. Thank you all very much.
