Restraint

Breaking my non-musical streak here! Oh my god it feels so good to be here again.

Thank god my Theory 3 professor assigned this new composition assignment, or else I wouldn't have been able to do this thing.
This seems to be a practice of how well I can use compressors, since I've geared this thing up and tested how loud it can go. I hope my vocals aren't out of place (like usual) but they seem to be doing okay, in my opinion. (Let me know, though!)

So yeah! Comments and critiques/criticisms always welcome!

Welcome back! This is an awesome track, very loud, nicely written, great sounds - that bass is killer. I actually thought the vocals could be a little up in the mix, they're pretty buried!

Thanks, @tiasu! I was actually treating the vocals here as texture for the background, since all I say is "YEAHHHH"
But sure, I'll fix that up for when I "perform" this for my Theory 3 class. (For a grade.)

The YEAH is fine as it is but the other vocals are pretty buried
