Jared Hudson Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 There's a lot of good elements here. However, the song's structure appears cluttered and too busy. I'm craving to have your best parts all running at once. A. Find a solid melody you can build off of. Make sure the lead instrument you choose won't get your ears tired when listening to the song. B. If it's house, that beat needs to be cookin a majority of the song, even if you drop the hi-hats and bass drum from time to time. C. Make sure you have a hot beat (like 30 seconds in) with a smooth GROOVIN' bass line. These two elements are oh so important. D. Add flavors and characters as backups. The square and saw waves you have running can have great uses, flutters, blips, counter rhythms, etc. E. Your mix is clear and sounds decent with its current compression. Mixing and crafting the sound is very important when creating solid rockin house tunes. Check out Ozone as a mastering tool. It's VERY useful. F. Experiment. Find more samples, or even swap around live samples from orchestral works, big bands, etc. You can get some great sounds. Again. There's lots of promise, but this sounds like an experimental project, and not a finished and crafted tune. For some inspiration, check out Freemasons and Shapeshifters for some KILLER house tracks. Pandora those guys if you need to. Great stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
