This track was made with FL Studio 20. I made this using entirely FL Studio plugins and VSTs. This is a re-upload from my SoundCloud that I decided to post here, as I realized I would have a better audience here.

The piano sounds really dry. The supersaw chords have to be sidechained, it cuts the mix unless. The lead is really cool but the PWM modulation goes way too far. Remove that limiter on your master to avoid overcompression. I recommend you to make busses for effects. I don't really like the chords but damn the melody is so good o_O.
Good job mate, keep it up!

Hello Ahurac,

Most of the choices I made here are intentional. If you are looking for a piano, that is actually a guitar that is dropped two octaves and then slightly bitcrushed. The supersaw chords were not sidechained because they are meant to stand out more, as as you said cut the mix. I took a look at your style and actually noticed some differences between you and me; I would honestly make your chords more audible, but it's just stylistic differences. Your bass is very heavy, and as a bass junkie I respect that, but it is so loud that only your drums and melody escape it. The lead is overdosed on PWM modulation because it just sounded cool, to be honest :P. Since I wanted the chords to stand out as well, the extra modulation creates a waving pattern that makes it stand out more.

Thanks for your feedback on the compression however, I did not notice it was compressed and it must have done that by default.
