Amazing song Strykur! I like what you did with the drop, those basses sound great. However, I think you can make the lead and voice quieter to emphasize the bass during the drop.
Another thing, if you don't mind me asking, where did you get those drum samples, and can I have them?
Thanks! I made the basses from scratch using some wavetables that I had lying around so I'm glad they worked out :) I think I overdid it a bit with the more melodic elements in places so I'd agree with you there :P
I got most of my drum samples from a random pack my friend sent me a year or so ago. I don't have the download link as the discord server he sent me it on has since been deleted, but they are a compilation of samples that artists like Virtual Riot and Au5 use and the whole folder is called "Important Drums", if that's any help. The snare used in this is a layered snare, but the main layer is a sample I bought off of splice called "XIL_snare3"
I see you have fixed some problems since your previous songs. The volume is much better, though some parts can still be a bit louder.
The drop is heavier, but it is rather repetitive. I would suggest use a few different dubstep sounds, preferrably one of them have a harder bass punch, like some in your older songs.
Other than that, I would say the main verse is beautifully made, and the buildup is not bad as well.
Final score: 3.5/5
Keep it up!
Yeah I noticed that the volume still isn't that great, I'm trying out some different compression plugins now because the multiband dynamics from Ableton isn't cutting it on it's own.
Drop was supposed to be a bit more riddim-y, which is where the repetitiveness came from, but looking back now I think I should have just gone for a brostep feel. All of the sounds were made using the Proc:squarify algorithm in serum which made them really screechy and less bassy which was not a particularly great idea.
Thanks! I wasn't actually too sure on the main verse (I loved the tom fills) so that is good to hear!
:)
Very nice work there. I really like the main verse, especially the drums and the vocal chops. Although the drop may be underwhelming to some people, I think it is very beautiful. However, some parts of the song is not loud enough, and compression would be great. Regardless, well done Strykur!
Thanks! I'm glad you liked the drop, I was a bit conflicted when I made it but it's nice to hear that. I think the main verse would have been better if the song was more compressed, which is just something I have to get used to now that I've switched DAW.
Hi. I make music. That's nice isn't it.
