kakku Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) Hi. This time I put here one of my Metapop contest entries. I liked the stems we were given. I used some of the drum stems. The link is not a direct one. If you want to listen you must scroll a bit down to find the correct tune. The correct version of this tune is right below the third version of Poppin and Bangin, one other of my contest non-winners. I hope you like it and I welcome any comments and critiques, although my fixing skills are not that great. I forgot to mention that you should skip the older versions of my tunes as they are, let's say, rough https://metapop.com/JonTrask?tab=all&sort=relevance Edited July 7, 2019 by kakku 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garybrun Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Hi Kakku. Sorry I missed this posting. Have been quite busy and have started to go through posts. You style always makes me think of the 80-90's which was my childhood 🙂 I think your mix is a little harsh om my speakers. With synthesised music there are so many frequencies and I would find it very difficult to mix. @Wookie is good on sysths... maybe he can chime in. All the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kakku Posted July 23, 2019 Author Share Posted July 23, 2019 Hi. Thousands apologies. I just now noticed I had not answered your comment. I admit I lack good mixing skills. Thanks for commenting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have noticed that it is not easy to make good mixings. I used to use headphones for mixing purposes, but nowadays I try my luck with my Audio pro Addon T4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they are so adjusted to the properties of their own speakers that other speakers would reduce the quality of their work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Joad Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) This has that 80's thing going on, I liked the the sound of the distorted keys. the drums stand out nicely, I listened to a few more of your songs and liked what I heard. I think you could pan a little more left and right to give your music a little more space. I'm just throwing this vid into the thread because it's a classic synth mix and your music reminds me a little of this band. I thought it might help a little with your mixing. I'm also trying to mix some songs right now and I agree it's hard to find that sweet spot. Edited July 26, 2019 by Joad 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Joad Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Yeah, that's pretty cool, kind of a Moody Blues flute thing going on.😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
