Coma - work the bassline a bit more, some of it seems out of key, and if you add a small high freq break of some kind to compliment the drum beat that will go down a treat. Good job so far :D
Toxid - It's probably just me but the backing of it just seems rather muddy to me but that may or may not be the desired effect, i'm not sure.

nayways

I'm absolutly not into liquid, but where's the bassdrum? I really like that subbass though.


I'll post a new version of stepping on acid in the share you're music forum soon, feels like its getting close to done and needs a share thread ;)

I really like the drums in this but I feel they get covered up by the bass, try checking the EQ and maybe pull up the volume of the drums a bit or the bass down. I find the drums that come in just before the main 'drop' a little harsh, once again I think it might just be the volume of them being a little too loud. I notice I've only picked on the mix and it is a WIP so that may not be done yet but I quite like everything else about this track so I don't have much other feedback to give :D.

Very rough arrangement a few things to add and maybe some things to take away. I'm struggling to give this track a direction at the moment. It seems to be going somewhere but never gets there. Feedback on anything that I could do to this track would be much appreciated. :D

I'm beginning to imagine it as a bg music in the settings/customize panel in a racing game. Right it s lacking something.

nice track mate, likin the first drop, drum pattern sounding sick! felt maybe you need to bring the sub out a bit also bring some more complex bass sounds weaving in and out every 2 or 4 bars? up to you dude where you take it. not sure about the second drop but its a good start.

]i got another tune ive been playing around with and some feedback would be great :)

I'd like to hear this whole thing with a bit more swing, and a bit more high end. Some more shuffly stuff would add a good bounciness to it, and I liked it a thousand times more when you brought in another synth line after the second drop. More of that plz! :D

I've got an interesting one... The first psytrance song I've ever actually done. I'm liking it, but not too sure if other people would. It's 8:30 long, so if anyone is willing to trek through the whole thing, it'd be great. It's quite repetitive (as psy tends to be, haha), so you can probably go section by section.

I think the bass needs to be an octave lower. Right now, it gets lost with that swirling pad in the background and some of those other synths. Also, maybe push the tempo a bit more.

Both good suggestions. Really helped. Thanks!
