Input..is it missing something?

Im pretty much done with this song and im finishing up the bridge. im kinda satisfied but it kinda still feels empty. Am i wrong if so…any suggestions ? I know I have someone to put in good bass …maybe that will complete it? ALso the mix/master is just rough draft…So ignore that lol

It starts with the hook btw

Maybe an intro would be cool, but I think you’re overthinking it a little bit :sweat_smile:

Tbh I don’t love the drums in the middle part. It’s kinda disconnected from the song…

You now what I mean? The swung drums

Ok ok :grinning: I also kinda felt it was… I tried a delay and it didn’t work but it sounds weird without it !!! Thanks for the input…Im gonna try to tweak it a little…

New page in my journey…I’m gonna take advice seriously :joy:

Dud just muted the snare and it’s way cohesive!!! I still want a snare so I’m gonna re do it…

It sounded like reggae out of nowhere lol. Try to straighten the rhythm maybe?

I just put a 440ms delay and it sounds a little better…I might have to just use a straight snare without delay… I kinda wanted a little atmospheric feel to it but might not fit

It’s not the delay it’s the notes imo they are subdivided in triplet grid or smthing?

Me too :grin: :raised_hands:t5:

I’m using 3/32 nots on the end of pattern …pretty close to triplets.

I’ma maybe try echo too …

Try setting them to 1/8 or so? Or use the same grid as before?

I’ma send the updated version…I used 1/8 with a lot of swing and it sounds decent but still disconnected. 1/8 straight is completely disconnected tho…

The whole bride piano,sax and guitar is using 3/32 notes too.

I’m gonna put some work in and post before I send you the track

Instead of a snare why don’t you use cymbals to create the airy feel?

I might try it!!! I think I got the snare right with those swung 1/8 nots but I might put in cymbals too lol

Or you could put some in with the bass?? I’m really starting to see the fun in working with people :grin:

Thanks bro!!! Just listened again and I’m not satisfied with it. I think the sax needs some work :grimacing:.

Also I know your more on the electronic music… Any ideas on how to add a little atmosphere or ambience? That’s what I was going for with the snare but I want a more ambient feel :thinking:
