Okay this is the second time today I'm posting something I made so I'm gonna start off by asking if anyone knows of some good forums for amateur EDM producers to post their shit and get criticism? Feel like I'm spamming the blogs section too much lately. :>

But anyway I made another progressive track, it's kind of weird and it might just be sleep deprivation but I think it turned out kind of cool.

Its really nice music , better than I've heard by local dj's at least, I guess you could do better with some lyrics and a nice chorus...

maybe its because i'm half drunk but I'm really enjoying "september" it has a nice deepness to it, makes one feel good...

do you have any more songs? I find myself enjoying your tracks atm....

newgrounds.com has a music section...thats all I know...

Always fun to hear! Sorry don't have anything really worthwhile on this computer but I'm going to update my soundcloud pretty frequently from now on.

don't go to newgrounds music unless you want to know what a bunch of 12 year old think of your tracks.

Your stuff sounds good, nice job mastering, snappy.

I think all three tracks could use a bit more though, another lead variation, another layer, a bit more length.

Some people like prog house really minimal, but I like a bit more to keep it from getting boring.


In Wierd you kind of abuse that can-opening sample a bit much.

September is very nice, but its missing a lead or sequence that changes it from a decent track into something memorable, something thats gonna get stuck in your head or that you could hum recognizably to your friend.

the 3rd track (progressive house) really feels like the beginning intro, I expect it to go into its main lead just at like 1:47...and then it goes into nothing...


The bolded is what I think you really need to work on now, from this it looks like the technical side is all there.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Thank you for listening sir! I agree with all of what you said and I agree that all these feel somewhat incomplete. I tend to get so lazy towards the end I don't bother finishing stuff properly. I've started working on the september track again though and I'm currently in the process of forcing a friend into playing piano in the 2d breakdown.

Oh and the can opening sound I fell a little bit in love with I think. :D
