Color of the Sound

Hello there! Pretty decent starting point here, but the vocals feel a bit heavy on the low end which affected the overall balance of the mix. A few adjustments in that areas could make a noticeable difference to the final result. Apologies for the decline today, but thanks for putting your music out there. I appreciate the share and have a good one! :)

Hey there , beautiful composition . Really loved the catchy vocals and emotions . The ambience feels nice and soothing . Though the mood suits my playlist well , I prefer a bit more lively chorus vibes with some drums in it . Good luck! will have to pass on this one .

Morning folks! I genuinely enjoyed every second of this. but l'm not digging the Iyrics. you've certainly have a unique and recognizeable sound, just not connecting with them. keep doing your thing though. cheers

Thanks for sending this in. The idea behind the piece comes across, and the emotional piano writing fits the story you describe, but for me the track isn't there yet. The mix sounds flat: the piano and the electronic layers sit on the same level, so there's little depth or space, and the moments that should lift the song don't open up. The arrangement also feels fairly generic and stays close to what we already know from this style, without a detail that makes it recognisable as yours. A more dynamic mix and one clear personal touch would help a lot. I'm passing for now, but I wish you the best with the release.

Hi, thank you very much for sharing your work. A very balanced song with good buildup and progression. However the song is too cinematic for my playlists. Therefore I politely decline this one.

Hey DJ RiccoFX, thanks for sending the track. Idea is pretty solid overall.Love the sound selection and mixing of each element , specially from the Piano. The vocal is beautiful, the lyrics too! And th eprocessing on point. Definitely this is a quaility track so congrats!!! However due to the editorial line of my lists, I am missing a more pressence of electronic sound and slightly higher BPMs vibes. Hope you can understand and wish you the best of luck with the track!!

Hey DJ RiccoFX, thanks for sharing your music and the emotional story behind it! This is a heartfelt song with a nice cinematic atmosphere, rich harmonies and a lovely sense of emotion. I appreciate the expressive musical approach and the way the arrangement supports the theme of loss and memory. Unfortunately, it’s not quite the right match for either of my playlists. My electronica and house selection focuses on instrumental music with distinctive electronic sound design and alternative edge, while my neo/modern classical playlist features minimal contemporary classical compositions with intimate solo felt piano sounds. Your track has a more pop-oriented character, so it falls outside both directions. Thanks again for sending it my way, and wishing you all the best with the upcoming release! Kind regards, Domas

Thanks for the submission, an emotional track with some strong vocals and nice keys, track production and balance is good however for my lists I'm looking for a bit more in terms of groove with drums and percussion this one is a bit too mellow for my taste so passing but wishing you the best of success with the release

Hi DJ RiccoFX! Thank you for sharing this. I’m so sorry for declining this track because I’m not connecting with the super polished vocals and the epic strings in the arrangement. I’m looking for a more rustic Indie folk feel with rawer vocals and subtle strings or ambience. Wishing you all the best!

Hey thanks for sharing this track. I really enjoyed the harmonic progression and the choice of instruments. There is a beautiful melancholic and almost cinematic atmosphere to the track that gives it a strong emotional character. For my current playlist, though, I'm looking for a more club oriented sound with a stronger House/Club influence and a more pronounced beat. This track leans more towards the atmospheric side of Pop Dance, so it sits a little outside the direction I'm focusing on at the moment. Thanks again for sharing your music, and best of luck with the release

He,y Beauitufl atmosphere. The piano fits perfectly in my list but we don't focus on a vocal upfront, especially not digital sounding vocals. We like just focus on slow and felt piano. Good luck! Jessa

I really like the low, deeper resonating vocal tone and also the lyrics and the darker yet hopeful vibe. But for my playlists and taste, the chord progression in the piano also feels a little bit too foreseeable and mainstream. I just miss a bit more surprising musical elements. What I still like a lot is the buildup of the track and how it really opens up later. Also the gentle vibe of the vocas and piano tone is super beautiful as are the strings. Sending best wishes and please keep creating, Dominik.

Hey, DJ RiccoFX! I hope you're doing well!! I just listened to Color of the Sound, which stands out for its distinctive piano sequence and vocals with a modern, refined tone. However, this simpler arrangement doesn't quite match our Chill direction, which focuses on instrumentals with richer harmonic elements and even percussion. Still, we're glad to have discovered your music and hope you'll come back soon! Before you go, don't forget to leave a positive rating on our profile!!! Nage, Chill Connections

I appreciate the clean production, prominent vocal mix and the piano phrasing. However, though entertaining, I was hoping for a bit more development in phrasing and dynamics. Additionally, I'm currently seeking tracks that are a bit brighter and livelier. That said, I'll have to pass for now. Thank you for sharing your art. All the best.

Thank for your submission, DJ RiccoFX. The piano accompaining the vocals is quite nice and mellow. Nice epic section at 2:14. However, I'm not interested in productions with vocals for my neoclassical playlists. Keep in mind this is just my opinion.

Hello DJ RiccoFX, I’m quite drawn to the smooth and clear vocals. Unfortunately, I’m not resonating with the piano driven arrangement with the cinematic strings. I’m focusing more on tracks with a breezy ambiance, reverb rich guitars, and driving energetic beats. I’m declining this but I’m grateful for letting me review this. Best wishes!

Hello! I will be declining your track because the quality of the mix didn't meet my standards. There's a fuzzy sound to the way your mix sounds right now and I find it a bit too distracting. Sorry for declining.

Hey, this is a relaxing track with pleasing harmony. However for my playlists it sounds too commercial, expecially vocal performance. Thanks for your submission and best of luck with the release!

Hi, thank you for sharing this piece! I enjoyed the soft textures and the calming mood of the arrangement. Some of the transitions felt a little bit too subtle for me in my opinion. I was looking for a more noticeable change between sections to help the piece develop naturally. Wishing you all the best with your music!

Thanks for your submission. The vocal is very smooth and soft. I like the delicate production like the strings and piano. Overall the track has a nice cinematic feel, which I appreciate. That said, I'm after something a little more alternative edgy sounding with both the song writing and production. Still a nice song. Thanks and good luck with the release.

Hey there! We like that male voice rhythm along with pianos. However the overall vibe feels a bit uplifting and light with those melodies, which doesn't fit much deeper/darker side of our "emotional piano" playlist, where we usually place tracks with focus only on pianos and strings. And your track doesn't fit quite nice among other more traditional lofi beat oriented tracks that we usually feature in our 'trading lofi mix' playlist, sorry 🙏

Hey, thanks for sending this one! I hear a lot of AI-assistance here. Starting from the arrangement and instruments, and also the vocal is mixed auto-tuned too much. This is not what I'm currently looking for. WIsh you all the luck with this release! Cheers, Jason

Hey, thanks for submitting! This was really warm and touching but also sounded way too familiar and polished, vocals could've used more organic feeling and the track could've offered something surprising at some point. Hope this heps!

Thanks for letting me hear your work! I appreciate the effort and thought behind your song, but unfortunately, it doesn't quite align with the sound I'm looking for in my playlist right now. It leaned on a bit too processed sounding and it lacked emotions. Keep building on your ideas and exploring what makes your music unique. I'd love to check out another release from you in the future, so don't hesitate to share again!

I like that the track has its own identity, and there are some interesting ideas woven into the sound. It doesn’t quite line up with the direction of my playlist at the moment, so I’ll have to pass on this one for now. Keep doing your thing and putting your music out there, the right fit is out there! :)

Hey there! Unfortunately, your song sounds too plastic and artificial to me. Especially the vocals. Sorry, but that's not for me. Thank you for the submission!

Hi, thanks so much for the submission. It's an interesting song. But I feel like it's missing a beat. On top of that, it sounds a lot like AI-generated music. I'm not interested in that.

Fantastic track . Really loved the soothing piano and catchy vocals . The melodies are appealing too . But for our playlist , we prefer a bit more happening and happy chorus vibes . Rest , liked the emotions . Good luck! eager to hear more from you.

This touched us, truly appreciated. Really loved how intimate this track feels. We usually lean more toward darker, moodier music, though, so it’s not quite the fit we’re looking for.

Hey thanks for sharing .. nice instrumentation , yet we found the vocal not to our taste . Music is subjective and this is only our preferences .

Hey there, beautiful work here, I like the lyrics in particular. They are backed up by quality piano work as well. It all comes together quite harmoniously. The production quality is also really well done, all elements are in nice balance, and yet loud, which is not always easy to do, especially with a quiet song. I'd accept it, but I would have needed a bit more unusual or unexpected elements for the genre thrown in. That said, I do want to underline how well it's made, for real. Best to you!

Hi DJ RiccoFX, I gave Color of the Sound an attentive spin today. The central piano melodies carry a nice feel and make for an appealing musical idea overall. Still, the current mix didn't quite work for my ears, as the balance and treatment felt a step away from what fits smoothly into my tracklist. Because the production side doesn't match the standard I look for across the playlist, I have to pass this time around. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to check out your piece.

Tienes una canción de calidad, pero creo que es un poco más lenta que mis canciones favoritas. Necesito canciones de música comercial con un punto más de energía

Hi there! How's everything going for you today? Thanks for this submission! Some nice elements were used in the sound design of this track. Good arrangement. Nice piano melodies. I'll have to pass for the simple reason the vibe is a bit too far away compared to everything I feature in my current playlists. I also focus more on instrumental (classical)music in my Introspection playlist. Please have a listen to what I feature so I maybe can help next time with a totally different song. Wishing you an amazing day ahead! Take care and best wishes, Dominique
