Hey guys!

Sorry to redirect you to Google Drive but here's my new progressive house/trance song that I've been working on over the past couple of days (I like to call it progressive trouse because, trance and house)

This is not the final version, but I worked very hard on it so I would appreciate some feedback.

Thanks

Solid uplifting track. The kick feels a bit dominant, and I think you could process your sweeps a bit more, maybe with some flanger and distortion to make them sit in the mix a bit better. All-in-all though, good work.

Thanks. I'll work on the flanger now. Distortion isn't my favourite thing, but I am using a modified "Classic Flanger" pre-set on Fruity Flanger (heavily)

Fair enough, we all have our personal tastes.

For me, using distortion effectively was one of those things that felt like it allowed me to really glue my tracks together sonically. So, I always recommend more distortion/saturation, but again it might just be me
