Another older LMMS song I made. Basic plug-ins with some more live drum samples of mine.

I like this one, the structure is really nice and it doesn't sound too repetitive. Mixing is alright, but I don't really like that panned kick drum beat at 0:55, I think it's usually a bad idea to do that. Last thing is more of a suggestion, I think it could do with more melodies, played by a chiptune lead, I think that would be really cool.

Hey! Thank you! I'm much more fond of this one too. As I'm going through these songs again, I do notice that LMMS tends to do that with some patterns and instruments. I may have to pan it the other way to align it more with the other drum tracks.
As for your suggestion, I do agree that it could use a stronger and brighter lead along with other songs I've done. The soft wash I tend to go for on lead does tend to muddy things if there's a lot going on. If you have any suggested artists that show some examples of it I'm totally down to hear em. :)

The synths are nice with a bit of a chiptune flavor to them. The drums sit well in the mix and I also like the different drums throughout. NICE!!!

ArtificialIceCream responds:

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. Mixing is something that I think I need to improve on, but I'm glad it turned out alright this time around.
