Hey HallyMusic!
I listened to your track and I liked it!
The advantages:
- The sounds are well mastered and balanced
- Nice arrangement
- Good ending
- Beside the acapella (without it), the trance is well made

There are still some cons about it:
- The acapella doesn't fit (even if it's a remix)
- The kick/clap at the drop should be imporved
- The drop should have a basslead and whitenoise
- The cimbal crash at the end should be removed (just let it fade)

Keep it up! :wink:

The track doesn't fit the key of the vocal.

Yeah, it sounds often a semitone out, sometimes just in a completely different key. There are definitely parts of the vocal where she's changed down in key (sounds like into a minor) and yours carries on the same. Either track your own key changes with the vocal, or tune the vocal. You could use autotune, or even a vocoder etc. Probably easier to change your instrumental key. But the tuning is out. :?

And there's an arpeggio that comes in that sounds the wrong key too.

I think you need to work the chords around a little bit. They just carry on right the way through the whole track - a bit too much of the same thing IMO.

However, in terms of the mix - generally a nice balance. I like the way it all sits together - some modern stuff, I think the drums are too dry and too upfront, whereas yours are OK. Possibly you could lift yours up just a really little bit, but not too much. The mixing is pretty good for 6 months in. As someone else mentioned, the instrumental bit is pretty good (although repetitive), but those vocals need sorting.

I just started out myself and gave it à listen on an iPad without headphones.

Notes of critisism personally:
Accapella doesn't sound completely right, arpeggio Same.
Maybe indeed a brighter clap and fadeout in THE end without THE cymbal.

However when you fix those, THE song Will end up Nice as THE arrangement seems ok to me as well as THE overall mastering. Nickely done!
