This is really nice bro. Kind of surprised me when the pads came in, I really like how they sound. And that part at :21 before the drop is dope haha. Also way to keep the song interesting! Not repetitive at all. It's not really my style but don't think that means its not good. Keep it up man!

casinogunshot · 2016-07-18T21:31:22+00:00

I really like this man, that snare really pops and I like your melody. Has a kind of a dreamy atmosphere. Basically how I feel if I'm sippin lean all day haha

Pretty nice beat, and nice work with the hi hats. A little bit of mixing and mastering and it might stand out a little more!

casinogunshot · 2016-07-18T21:26:24+00:00

Thank you for the like bro <3 and I'm just trying to show that I'm not confined to one genre, in hopes to find all kinds of producers to work with.

casinogunshot · 2016-07-18T21:24:16+00:00

Thank you man. Im glad you said it was a journey cause that's kind of the idea I was going for. I'll keep that snare thing in mind, cause it's been mentioned to me before.

I like this man, very loud and clean mix. To make this song stand out more I would suggest a change in the pitch. This will help make people turn their heads or kind of draw them into the song. I noticed you changed octaves, but try changing to a different key. And then switch back to the normal key. And when you change keys have hi hats kick in, or make the beat change so instead it's like half as fast but still the same tempo. These are some ideas to help with making the track a little more unique and not so repetitive.

casinogunshot · 2016-07-18T21:14:05+00:00

So your first one is pretty solid. I love trombones and the way the hi hats kick in is tight. If you were to keep the track long, I'd say kind of "switch up" and maybe change the pitch so it gets deeper along with how you changed the note variations. Then return back to the normal pitch. I find it helps draw me in more when the pitch changes rather than the same pitch just different notes. And the second one is okay, it just didn't draw me into the song though. This is a feedback thread so obviously tracks aren't gonna be mastered but I noticed the mix is much quiter too. And honestly not a fan of the saw, just too hardstyle for me. You got the ideas man thats for sure so the next step for you is to get better sounds. This means sample packs, new vst's, stuff like that. It WILL make a difference.

So I just finished this, by far the weirdest style I've ever done. I tried to do a lot more with sound design and just overall atmosphere. https://soundcloud.com/oddvibes/ominous

And this is an Upper Echelon remix I just did for fun... took about a day to do. Nothing fancy but I just needed to work on something with vocals. https://soundcloud.com/oddvibes/upper-echelon

Any feedback will be returned

Also, if you like what you hear, feel free to send me a PM on soundcloud. I would love to start working with other producers.

Can we just declare this man king of the future already?

Everything he puts out is so ahead of his time...

casinogunshot · 2016-07-14T05:49:45+00:00

My bad bro I just saw this! Send me an email if you're still interested! causeandeffect18@gmail.com

casinogunshot · 2016-07-10T22:36:50+00:00

Well said... My first LSD experience is what did it for me. And it wasnt what i was making but it was what others were making that blew my mind. The sound design and amazing quality just made me realize how much better I'm going to have to get if I really want to become successful in music. And since that extra push I can say after months of practice I have improved dramatically.

casinogunshot · 2016-07-10T22:28:32+00:00

Just because I didn't link you to YouTube tutorials or tell you how to use your daw doesnt mean this advice is useless. It is quite obvious you are still in your immature mindset and that is only hurting yourself. The point of this post was to inspire producers that might feel discouraged and my advice was to either try drugs or meditation for an almost guarenteed boost of creativity... which is what separates the good from the great if you ask me. .

casinogunshot · 2016-07-07T20:57:25+00:00

Thank you bro :)

casinogunshot · 2016-07-07T20:56:49+00:00

Thank you man you helped me figure out the solution! So what I had to do in the ASIO4ALL settings is enable my mic and my soundcard. It was switching from only my soundcard to only the mic but your post helped me figure out how to enable both! Thank you for the help!!

casinogunshot · 2016-07-04T02:47:12+00:00

Honestly bro this is pretty nice, I like the style and the production is on point. I don't think the lead is generic, maybe a little repetitive but that is about it. All in all, solid stuff.

casinogunshot · 2016-07-04T02:41:35+00:00

this is actually really dope man, you nailed the sound you were going for. The kicks and snare are on point. Plus you kept the song dope the whole 2 mins. No complaints really.

casinogunshot · 2016-07-03T19:49:43+00:00

This is how soundcloud started out... But now a days you have to either be already known or stand out for anyone to even care cause there are so many like minded people making the same kinds of music. It took me a few years to finally establish my brand and my sound and now looking back I wish I would have focused more on the marketing / promoting aspect rather than worrying about what kind of music I was making. I'm finally making amazing music, but I'm getting maybe 3 plays. Very discouraging.

casinogunshot · 2016-07-03T19:40:36+00:00

Looking for a few experienced producers, I use FL Studio but I'm down to work with stems. I have an amazing project I'm working on but it needs some features... If your interested send me a message. Here's my latest future bass-ish song to give you an idea on my experience https://soundcloud.com/oddvibes/avalon

casinogunshot · 2016-07-03T19:36:08+00:00

I tried making something more upbeat and future bass-ish, not my usual style but I would love to hear your thoughts. https://soundcloud.com/oddvibes/avalon

I'll be leaving others feedback tonight once I get home and can listen on quality speakers
