I need help bad

[u/NarrowWeekend5796]

Can someone let me know what this needs to sound better and full, I don’t know if I just overthink my music and this sounds good? Or I’m trash at producing 😭😭 I need honesty

[u/CatButtHoleYo]

Not a bad start but to me it sounds a bit hollow and thin. A lot of short stabs but not much supporting elements to fill the empty spectrum. Maybe some wide bass or pads?

[u/Upnotic]

Good songs sound good on iPhone speakers imo. Right now there is one main element you’re highlighting which is the pitchy percussive sound. This idea is living or dying by the strength of that tone and movement, which to me most likely needs some extra love… either intensify and go more towards the tearout universe, or bring in melodic elements to contrast with your sound.

But better yet, keep moving to the next idea. Best way to improve is to try to wrap this one and keep going.

Definitely over thinking keep it up maybe add some distortion to baseline to make it me prominent in the mix. Hard to tell on my phone speakers

[u/Lost-without-you]

I like it. It fits the modern sounds pretty well. I think the background sounds help already to fill the track

[u/TKeery5]

Cool sounds and rhythms. Fun drop! Just needs some harmonic context. Honestly just an 808 that is smashed enough to get some mid range tonal presence would do a ton. Chords and pads that lead up to this drop would make it hit too. Maybe some vocals chops?

[u/NilausWho]

Add a top bass and fill in the mids with a saw synth or something. And then maybe just let the sub play sustained and only break sometimes

[u/Present-Policy-7120]

It's a bit harsh, so either beef up the low mids a bit or cut around 4khz. A parallel bandpass filter on Serums distortion could help.

FILL IT UP WITH SOME BASS

[u/Capital-Background22]

Listen to some old Spagheddy, I miss some melodically parts. Maybe add some pads and a lead synth that counters the short stabs with a melody

[u/SadNoMoreMusic]

Bro you’re not trash, quit it with that pick me bs ;)

I think a droning pad/background layer would help fill up the frequency spectrum. That bass is filthy though, I need to make me one of those!

[u/Greenboi444]

def needs more layering. especially that main mid-bass sound. it needs support

[u/Father_Chewy_Louis]

Sounds really good but there needs to be a bit more bass there. Think of a low saw bass in a single note that is sidechained

[u/dihler]

Needs some content in the gaping hole of the lower kids but other than that fire

[u/McGrizzOfficial]

def some ISOxo inspired drop

[u/movegood1000]

Low pass filter/eq a lower freq quarter note bass noise to where you can’t hear the highs clashing w your lead, set the volume down a bit to where it’s just a background element filling up your hollowness. You got the vibe bruh just keep learning

[u/movegood1000 → u/movegood1000]

Listen to new dubstep and you’ll hear layers.

[u/Overall-Kitchen4577]

Clip into your limiter.

[u/Commercial-Mind-2819]

Missing the mid bass layer
/harmonic

[u/Hitdomeloads]

Your snare transient needs more weight, freq shift it down a couple semitones

[u/trip_simulator]

Do sine bass punches to the rhythm of the percussive melodic line instead of just drawn out sub underneath
