Many thanks, I Awake, for your detailed and technical review of my track. It's a big pleasure for me, especially because it comes from a talented expert and then because I really want to learn how making music, in particular, how making my unique and personalized music style.

P.S. Going forward I'll feature a track I review above so it's easier for you guys to take a listen.

This week's review goes to "Broken Lullaby" by Ross-e - an eerie lullaby with a sprinkle of electronica that only needs a bit of fine-tuning and the song is good to go!

(1/4) Sound Check Feedback on "Broken Lullaby" by Ross-e:

• First of all, you really caught that eerie vibe you were aiming for. In my opinion, this is a more or less ready track. Minor adjustments and it’s done.

• In the first minute, everything works fine. However, the laser drop sound is a bit too loud in the mix. I'd tone it down to balance things out.

(2/4) Sound Check Feedback on "Broken Lullaby" by Ross-e:

• After the one minute mark, I’d introduce a new element to avoid making the track too repetitive. A lead or an arp would be nice for instance.

• This track would really benefit from some vocals. Either a straight rap or one of those single samples. Just make sure they fit in key. Maybe someone here on Soundation wanna help you with vocals?

• The sub bass comes in a bit unannounced. I'd introduce it already at 1.19.

(3/4) Sound Check Feedback on "Broken Lullaby" by Ross-e:

• At 1.54, adding a shift would work wonders for the track. You can either introduce new elements here or strip down the beat to let listeners get some air for a while before the drop.

• On top of the bells at 2.03, I would also add a pad with loads of reverb in order to add an extra layer as well as adding more depth to this part.

(4/4) Sound Check Feedback on "Broken Lullaby" by Ross-e:

• All in all, this is a great track with a nice mix. What I'd recommend you to do is working on your arrangement. As usual, analyze other electronica tracks you like, copy the rounds and the magic will happen. Nice work. Keep it up!
