Hey!

I've finished my school work and the other methods are working so I thought I'd post here

There's a song I've been working on for a while. (it's been out for almost a week now).

https://soundcloud.com/hipster-bales/angelica

It uses FL's Harmless as the main synth, with Sytrus being used for the drums and 3x Osc being used for the bass and sweeps. (yes I know the lead can get loud at times, I'll acknowledge that for my next song)

Any comment and review would be great!

Thank you!

I feel like it's a good "A part", but missing a "B part".

Check out this classic Kylie track for ideas. Has similar vibes.

Here's another track from the album that kind of follows the formula if you're curious as to what these productions sounded like back then.

Nice club mix. Sounds really good in my headphones. As I listened I had a couple thoughts. How about some random crowd noise in the background. People talking, laughing, glasses clinking, etc. Low volume and subtle, but enough to give it a live feel. You can find loops like that anywhere for free. The video of Kylie was okay, but it was just her dancing, saying… Look at me! It doesn’t tell much of a story. How about some video of people dancing and partying in a fancy night club? There is a handsome single guy standing at the bar by himself looking lonely and troubled. Girls dig that. Then he sees her across the room. He is immediately infatuated with her. She is surrounded by guys trying to hit on her, but she’s not interested in any of them. The music volume drops and the camera zooms in on her. She is looking directly at him! The camera switches back to the lonely guy. He looks confused. Are you looking at me? The camera switches back to the pretty girl. She smiles and winks at him. BOOM! The kick drums come back in at full volume and he joins her on the dance floor. The dance for a while, but soon she has to leave. Before she walks out, she whispers something in his ear. Next thing, she’s writing her phone number on the back of his hand. The mystery girl walks away, and the guy returns to the bar. At first he looks disappointed, then he looks at his hand and a little smile comes across his face. He’s gonna get some! Not tonight, though.

Not really much of a story, but remember what Colonel Sanders said. Keep it simple, stupid! There are lots of free AI video sources when you can cobble together a few minutes of material, then splice it together into a finished product. Just my two cents.

Yeah. I was just thinking out loud and typing. Sometimes I get a bit carried away. I do that a lot.
