Curated By Kenyama Curator on Song to Carol by Chris Portka · 3 months ago Declined

Hi Chris Portka, thank you for sharing! I think the beat has a pretty engaging groove thanks to the added texture from the bass and the shaker, but I'm sorry to say that the low end is a little lacking and sounded a bit thin in the mix. Really sorry for the de...

Hello Chris, thanks for your submission. This is a really enjoyable track with a great vibe. The groove is catchy, the bassline brings a lot of funk and movement, and the vocal elements work well as hooks that keep the track engaging throughout. Everything sou...

I believe the song's got a cool concept, it almost reminds me a bit of Glee and jazz combined together. However, I felt that the vocals could still be more locked into the notes a bit more as some of them could be a bit shaky. Sorry for passing on this track....

Mood Sculptor Playlists Curator on Song to Carol by Chris Portka · 3 months ago Declined

Hey Chris Portka, while I liked the funky bass line and the smooth percussion, I'm sorry to say that the track overall just lacked a more distinct and memorable catchy element for me to connect with and nothing really stood out for me. I'm afraid I'll pass for...

Sound Surfer Playlists Curator on Song to Carol by Chris Portka · 3 months ago Declined

Hi Chris Portka, I loved the smooth bass groove and the soulful vibe but unfortunately this doesn't fit my r&b playlist as they vocals were too sparse and lacked lyrics. This also doesn't quite have the punchier drums to fit my house playlist. I'm sorry to tur...

Hi there and thank you for sharing your music Chris Portka! A nice and vibrant tune for sure. That bass in there sounds crisp. Well done on the production. For me personally: a bit too repetitive and slow paced. I prefer more energetic singing right from the s...

The song for Carol is perceived as carefully crafted in terms of sound. I like the polished sound and rich instrumentation. But, regarding its theme and lyrics, it is somewhat lacking in depth. It entertains, but I don't feel that it leaves a lasting mark on t...

Javier Mandiola Curator on Song to Carol by Chris Portka · 3 months ago Declined

In terms of sound and instrumental quality, I can say that the proposal is pleasant and maintains a good level throughout its development. There is a noticeable carefulness in the production and a competent execution that adds value to the whole. However, bein...

Hey there! To start with, I really dig that hypnotizing effect that your tune has on me. Infectious percussion, catchy bass line and hi-pitched back vocals. Pretty unusual layering. I like your openness to experiments. Unfortunately, the vocal lines did not re...

Natalia Carina Alonso Curator on Setting Sail Into the Mist by Tracy Sabin · 3 months ago Declined

Sailing into the fog has a delicate beginning. The voice of a small child is perceived as sweet and tender. As the minutes pass, I think it is a proposal where its greatest strength lies in the vocals. But, there are no changes or risk. It would have captured...

I really enjoyed the tone and atmosphere you created , it feels cinematic and intense. The writing itself has a sincerity that I appreciated. I especially liked how cohesive the overall mood was. Personally though, the vocal processing felt slightly synthetic...

Curated By Kenyama Curator on Setting Sail Into the Mist by Tracy Sabin · 3 months ago Declined

Hi Tracy Sabin, thank you for sharing your song. Sadly, this song isn't quite aligned with my playlist as it is quite cinematic leaning that is used for plays. I usually go with a chill and contemplative Solo Piano pieces or Jazz arrangements with no prominent...

Gerald Curator on Pull His Jumper by Chris Portka · 3 months ago Declined

The track has got many interesting sound elements throughout. I like the smooth groove a lot. However to better fit my playlist I would've liked for the track to have way more mainstream appeal to it

Hello! Thank you for sharing your track. The song creates attractive and comfortable spaces within the beat, which gives the vocal a good room to develop. There’s a nice structure in the production, and the rhythm leaves enough space for the voice to take a st...

Hey Chris Portka, One of the first things I noticed right off the bat was that the final mix was overblown. Basically all that means on my end is that I was hoping for a better master on the track, specifically regarding clipping. Personally, I couldn't really...

Hi Chris! Thank you for sharing your track with me. Your vocals and production are truly impressive! That said, I usually lean towards a more commercial pop sound, and I felt that this track has more of a techno vibe. Because of that, I won’t be able to move f...

Lim K. Curator on Pull His Jumper by Chris Portka · 3 months ago Declined

Hey! There's a cool atmosphere underneath this and I can hear the direction you were aiming creatively. The mix feels a bit too muffled and distorted for my taste though, so a lot of the details don't come through as clearly as they could. With a cleaner and m...
