Massive Attack-style bassy classical tune

[versed lantern]

Hi,

This is a new piece I'm working on, a bassy Massive Attack style tune with a lot of classical parts.

I'd like to hear your thoughts, anything you like/dislike about the track. I'm all ears, I won't be offended by any criticism.

I've recently added some vocals, which are the final parts of the song I want to add. They are at around 01:01 and 04:35 if you want to skip to those parts - I'm keen to know if they sound ok on your headphones/speakers.

Thanks all!

Sup bro, huge massive attack fan here. I love it bro, honestly i got the whole vibe of the track, it reminds me kinda the mezzaine alnum, one of my favorite ones. The only thing in my opinion its the drum, idk its souding too low.

[versed lantern]

Eyy thanks a lot! I'll take a look at the drums.

I really like the sound on this one. A good mix of the sounds. It doesnt seem to be overwhelmed with bass either. The strings sound great kind of coming in and out.

Whenever i go on walks or to the gym, i tend to listen to things that arent traditional music and this would be a banger to listen to while walking along the river.

Thanks so much for the kind words!

Ty, yeah the lead seems to be drowned when all of the other layers start playing
if thats what you were referring t

Hi all, I've been adding vocals given to me by a singer.

Do you think I've got the balance of her voice right with the tune? Both in the mix, but also the arrangement?

Keen for any and all feedback, as usual.

For anyone interested, I released the full track & video (also inspired by Massive Attack) on Youtube today.

Thanks for your feedback & positive vibes!

Really good track bro, congratulations

very cinematic, i would recommend using an imager to increase stereo width of pad and strings a little to make it more immersive

[olive cypress]

thats dope. Will u release it on spotify ?

[versed lantern]

Thanks, sadly not yet as I can't justify the price of listing it

This is beautiful. I defintley get Massive Attack vibes from this but also a lot of post rock elements. The background voices are heavenly. The end is no joke one of the most beautiful parts of a song I've heard. Do you have a Soundcloud or Spotify? I'd love to follow you.

I think she stands out a bit much. Honestly i think just mixing her into the strings a little bit more and tuning it down just a smigde would be perfect

you're insanely talented

i wish i could make music like this

[versed lantern]

Thank you so much, for your positive vibes and thoughts. Yes! I have Soundcloud, it's free so I love it for that. https://soundcloud.com/sonicfactory/pandora

You will, just practice a lot, keep trying, every day, every month, every year - you will get there.

i've been producing for about 4 years now and i can never finish a song 💔

i hope

thank you

[versed lantern]

Just keep going. Watch tutorial videos, listen to stuff you like, keep making. Don't stop.

[keen yarrow]

I followed you

[versed lantern]

My biggest regret was stopping making music 20 years ago. I started again 3 years ago and made it my 100% life goal.

If I was 20 years younger.... etc.

[keen yarrow]

its never too late to do anything 😃

[versed lantern]
