Updated: I revised the track with some changes. Mainly, I cut the kick back a bit, added some reverb to the hats, removed a layer, adjusted the rhythm for one of the arps, tweaked the ending, and scaled back some of the parts.

Hi there,

For this track, I went super heavy on sound design using Sytrus in FL Studio. Spent about 2/3 of the time crafting out soundscapes and arps. I felt like they fit well with the theme, but I leave that to you to decide.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks for listening.

Transitions cool JKIllz. I know everyone says let the kick through but maybe not as strong ( I think when the kick is too strong it cuts out your midrange stuff, answers on a postcard). Its hard though as everyones sound setup is different. Actually listened again and thought slightly more verb on hihats. : )) Overall very good though, being nitpicky.

Intense rhythms. Very cool arps and bass. Great sound design.

Maybe the kick is too loud?

Thanks everyone for the feedback!

I can appreciate that Layzer, glad I didn't ruin it with the minor tweaks lol. I actually posted it on another forum and seemed like the feedback was consistent. I know my ears will play tricks on me too

Love it, groovy and trippy. The sound design is absolutely crazy

I'm not sure about the lead part (the one which starts around 3:58) - the synth itself sounds good but I think the track calls for a bit darker melody, perhaps something in the Phrygian mode.
