@Soundphase Really like your melody! If I would change something, I would make it a little more complex. Anyway, it works well as it is. It's simple and catchy. I would love to hear it with kick and proper synth :dance:

Here is something me and my friends are working atm. Of course it's not finished or anything, we will change a lot in the melody and synths and so on but the basics are there. There are some elements of the track so you can get the whole wibe of the track. Any feedback would be nice ;)

not really sure about the notes in the background or is it just some kind of heavy delay? maybe raising the bottom notes a bit earlier would have an uprising effect for the tension, but great melody all in all!



yep that doesn't sound like it's 2017 in any way (expect the unneccesary snarerolls) :+

@Tragonvalo

Melodie is nice and back-in-the-day'ish'. You could create some more space with leaving some notes. It will get more parts that keep inside people's heads. But that's just my opinion. 2nd melodie (after first piano part) is actually very very nice! Sounds could be improved, but that's just sound design.

Here my very own track I just released actually:

The Gentle - Courage. Let me know what you think by sending me a massage or anything!

Tragonvalo: all of them are right, get the old vibes definitely, but maybe add some extra sounds to make it more colorful :)

Joop: Cyber and WP impressions! The track itself is nice, just change the Frontliner kick and it's ready for a release :P

Had some fun, sorry for the "clipping" sound, that's because of the badly made sidechain I guess :rofl:

@Soundphase; really interesting progression, would be cool to see some track with that kind of drive.

Some test melodies I've made over the past few months
