The bridge section sounds like some sort of sports new casting channel

[u/Separate_Your_Mind84]

What plugins do you use for your brass instruments?? 🤔

[u/Proud-Ninja5049 → u/Separate_Your_Mind84]

Yea the brass sounds rly good. I can still tell it’s a plugin and not a sample though.

[u/theRevisto → u/Separate_Your_Mind84]

It's from Analog Lab V by Arturia, more specifically, I think it's Augmented Brass.

[u/Separate_Your_Mind84 → u/theRevisto]

Sweet, I'll check it out sometime. 🤔

[u/HesThePianoMan]

Man looked at all the notes and said "nah I just like this one"

[u/whatupsilon]

It definitely reminds me of a sports news theme which IMO is partly from the brass and partly the rhythm.

Mix-wise I'd suggest dialing back the reverb a lot to almost dry. I'd also try to focus on the sub bass which sounds too low to hear and a bit boomy. It also may not be in key. If you move it up one octave and add some upper harmonics with saturation or distortion, that can help it register. No doubt it sounds fine on a subwoofer but that is probably the biggest area to improve.

[u/theRevisto → u/whatupsilon]

Thank you so much for your feedback.

[u/Jeffrey_Blepstein]

I like the ideas but dude you need to lower the volume of everything. It should never reach +3db which your track does almost completely through, keep the master volume at -6db or so and just turn up your speakers. Otherwise you get clipping and flattening. You're working with detailed sounds, but that detail will not shine through because your mix is ass. It's like turning the brightness all the way up on a picture.

[u/theRevisto → u/Jeffrey_Blepstein]

Thanks a lot for the feedback.

[u/Pretty_End6095]

Idk but it sound like 1997

[u/SonicMutant743]

Make the drums, bass and claps from brass too, then it'll be accurate.

[u/c_los_nyc]

Sounded like a high-school band at a football game minus the percussion. Nice!

[u/MothyThatLuvsLamps]

This is really cool!

[u/mrnonamex]

All the jokes in here aside. It sounds good. Keep it up and your sound will only continue to grow

[u/Maganda_]

It's pretty good .

[u/Bringerofrain1017187]

Honestly not even trying to be funny, this would go so hard over like a smash bros game, or maybe even rocket league or fifa🔥

[u/ieatcalcium]

Kinda based in a weird way. Hm.

[u/LopsidedSorbet359]

tv news station intro ahh

[u/Fun_Shape6597]

You said there’s brass in there? Couldn’t tell. Nah not bad tho honestly. I was expecting MUCH much worse

[u/TwatEmperor]

YOU MUST CALL THIS TRACK: "SANDSHORN!"

[u/cap10wow]

I like it

[u/LimpGuest4183]

The bridge section was really cool. It built very well towards the hook. Nice!

[u/TheepicBambifanner]

Kendrick type beat

[u/aaron2933]

Soulcaliber

[u/Ocon88]

This would probably be a good hit if it were the 2000s.
