Digging Back

By Robroy on January 5, 2014 1:58 pm

Old skool house style workout, steady groove and piano breakdown stuff, used with copyright free samples. Appreciate any feedback and comments, it's a start for the year but looking forward to learning a lot on the forum

Retro! Nice energy and feel. Me gusta!

some interesting ideas, true to old school house but I feel like they don't tie together that much, the mixing could be better and most of the instruments sound "thin" ... when the drums come back towards the middle it does get better but the "thin" feeling is still there. That donk donk bass is right on spot.

Dig some of the ideas, needs some more flavor. Some elements to enhance the groove, harmony etc. I want the piano to be more beefy! Nice work though.

Good track!

Def needs some eqing and better mixing sounds are very thin. But yeah stay on this flex for a second. I could hear another rhythmic sythn in the mix along side the piano.

Thanks, really appreciate the feedback. Very fair point on the mixing and EQing, it's an area that I'm not good at. Part of the reason for doing the challenge is to put stuff out there and then fix that areas that need it.
