Wow really nice ! It's melancholic synthwave, i like it. What could be improved : don't hesitate to introduce sequencies with different chords and high frequencies, it gives more variety, maybe just for a short moment but it will sound like the summit of the music. In fact all depends what feeling you want to communicate through this music. Nice play with the cutoff , maybe the drop just after could be blended (like a bigger difference before and after the drop)

when i mean "before the drop" i mean just 3-4 seconds before, not the whole track before haha

(sorry for my broken english, hope you will understand) i see everything without any high frequencies before (a big cutoff) exept the cymbal wich could have higher frequencies and which could be low-shelfed with a curve now after the drop i see the contrary : everything with less cutoff (with more high frequencies) and maybe the detuned chords not so loud to avoid clipping

those 3 words are amazing together

Jan 12, 23

hehehehehhe you've been the inspiration ever since i heard that one mushroom lofi song

Jan 12, 23

great advice all around! how would i go about making the drop blend better, do you think?

Jan 12, 23

Get rid of everything except the leady thing

Jan 12, 23

got it

Jan 12, 23

Ok I'll probably remix it

Jan 12, 23

you can do it though @purpleflute377 remix is open for that reason

Jan 12, 23

yup

Jan 11, 23

actually a good base to work from, as long as someone can get the db levels of everything right

Jan 11, 23

also how in the WORLD DID YOU DO THAT SICK LEAD!

Jan 11, 23

remix is open if you wanna see how it was done

Jan 11, 23

the tuning part takes a bit of practice, but once you get it, it sounds ok also add some reverb(quasar, not the purple one) to give it a better transition on top of the tuning between the notes

Jan 11, 23

really high note, filter cut off, then tune it to slide from one note to another

Jan 11, 23

chords are too overpowering if you guys wanna remix and fix it, go ahead!

Jan 11, 23

i tried to get it up there, but it was struggling

Jan 11, 23

hey are just a bit too much wish i could hear bass though
