keep it real

I appreciate you sharing your track with me. The synth textures and beat truly caught my ear; it's clear a lot of care went into the production. Ultimately, the song didn't connect with my personal curation style as strongly as I'd hoped. I'm certainly interested to hear your future work. Wishing you the best with this release!

Hey Fork, thanks for sharing your music! I really enjoyed the groove here, with its driving beat, warm synth sounds and soulful vocal touches that add a nice character to the track. There’s a great sense of energy throughout, and the production feels well put together. For my house playlist, though, I’m looking for a brighter, more laid-back sound, with organic textures, softer grooves and a stronger focus on instrumental elements. Your track has a more energetic, dancefloor-oriented feel, so it’s not quite the right match for my selection. Thanks again for sending it over, and best of luck with the release! Best, Domas

Hey thanks for the submission. I really enjoyed the catchy and vocals and flute melody a lot here. The drums were quite qritty, but for me personally the kick and bass were still missing some more pressure and density. Have a nice day! Hendrik

Hey there! We appreciate your hard work on the production and careful synth layering. However your track feels a bit moody and somewhat too deep for our personal taste, which doesn't fit quite nice among other more emotional and upbeat tracks with slightly faster pace that we prefer in our mainstream festival playlists. And your track feels a bit strong for more melodic side of our "deep & melodic electronic" one. And your track doesn't fit well among other more melodic oriented tracks with softer elements in style of dj katch or lynnic that we prefer in our 'deep house female vocals' one, sorry 🙏

Hey there! I think the style you’ve developed here is really well achieved. Some sections have a particular charm that gives the track personality, and I like how certain elements stand out naturally within the production. The overall aesthetic feels attractive, and I can appreciate the creative direction behind it. However, I feel the song introduces a few sections that don’t necessarily contribute enough to the main idea. At times, the arrangement seems to move away from its strongest moments, making the transitions between sections feel a little disconnected. I think consolidating some of those ideas could help the track maintain a clearer direction without sacrificing the creativity that gives it character. Maybe it would be worth identifying which sections communicate the concept most effectively and building the rest of the arrangement around them. Shortening certain passages, bringing back a recognizable melodic detail, or making the transitions respond more naturally to the main rhythm could create a stronger sense of continuity. I think it’s important to give listeners a few clear moments they can hold onto, especially when they’re discovering an artist for the first time. I decided not to include the track in my playlist on this occasion, mainly because I felt the arrangement could be more cohesive and focused around its strongest ideas. It’s a very subjective observation, especially since I do appreciate the style you’re developing. I hope this feedback offers another perspective on how to bring those elements closer together. Wishing you the best with the release, and hopefully we can connect with your music again in the future!

Hi, thank you very much for your submission. I like the vocal sample. Unfortunately, the instrumental doesn't quite win me over 100% in terms of the overall sound design or the mixing. I'm really sorry.

Hey, thanks for the submission! Pretty dope energy, synths, and catchy vocals, too. Would've loved a bit more variety and less punch (or at least at times), as this got a bit intense after a while, esp with some of the vocal adds. Hope this helps and the song does well anyway!

Hey, thanks for sending! The idea is so cool, nice soudn selection and mixing of elements + a great vocal processing!! Track has quality and anything bad tobe said in here. Anywways I am looking for a more organic sound and even at less BPMs ! Hope you can understand and best ofluck with promo!

Hey! Thanks for sending over your track. I have to admit that I found it a bit difficult to get into, mainly because I feel that some of the sound selection and samples don’t quite fit the overall direction you’re going for. The track leans heavily towards house and melodic house, but some of the samples feel more suited to genres like trap, which creates a bit of a disconnect and makes the overall production feel less cohesive. I’d recommend paying closer attention to how each sound contributes to the track’s identity and making sure the different elements complement each other. I also feel that the low-end could use some work, particularly in terms of the bass sound and its overall production quality. At the moment, it doesn’t quite work for me, and I think there’s room to improve both the sound selection and the way the low frequencies are handled in the mix. Overall, I believe the track could benefit from some further refinement to achieve a more consistent and polished result, so I’ll have to pass this time. I hope you understand where I’m coming from, and I encourage you to keep working on it and exploring ways to strengthen the production. Best of luck!

Good afternoon. awesome feel you've created here but l'm not digging the vocaIs. you've definiteIy got your own styIe, I'm just not personally connecting with them. cheers

I really like the creative use of electronic sounds and the energy you brought to this track. The sound design has some interesting moments, but the synth layers and transitions don't quite flow together in the way I'm looking for on my playlist. You have some good ideas here, so keep experimenting with your sound and refining your production.
