Sicarius771 - Supercharged


Oh my God I really loved making this, I think it's my favorite thing I've ever made by a long shot. I'm putting this in the DnB genre, I feel like it fits there. I'm rushing the publishing process, sorry :P

Could this be the start to an album for fast paced songs like this?? I'd like that if I wasn't so dang busy rn :P

Anyway if you liked it, be sure to rate accordingly, if you really liked it then share to your friends or anywhere in that matter ~ Hit me up with a follow, it helps a lot!! Seriously, you guys are the best. I wouldn't be here if it weren't for the support I get.

If you want more 1-1 conversations with me and other fans then consider joining our Discord the community keeps growing slowly!

Edit: Excuse the beginning, I didn't know how quiet that really was . . .

By 40 seconds, I think that quarter stab chord could come down in the mix. It's giving the impression of no breathing room.

Some comments on mix. The percussion is pretty muted sounding. Like I'm wearing ear protection, in comparison to those spacy highs. The longer the mix goes, by 1:33, we have lots and lots of reverb that doesn't let up. It also sounds like we have a piano synth that's doubling the bass, which I would cut. That's the overtones I was hearing on the reverb.

So, I would cut 250 hz and below on instances that aren't bass or percussion to clean up and make room for it to sit, shorten reverb tails, low cut to 250 on those reverb sends as well, and drop the send some.

Your percussion, particularly that gong, is either buried, in the case of kick and snare, or broom falling down a staircase in a warehouse scary loud. I think this is trying to compensate for when other instruments, like pads and leads on the sides, are also way too loud. Go back and see if you can get a handle on this mix, and make sure two things are good -- can hear the percussion well, can hear the bass, and can clearly make out the lead. Drop those instruments on the side down much, much lower. They're making the song sound like a high wash.

I love the composition, the mix is the only thing holding back my 5. Or at least like a 4.5. You've got a great mind for dnb writing. This would be a total banger with the mix fixed up on so there weren't these big discrepancies in loudness. Keep making music!

Thanks for coming out to NGUAC!

Awesome, thank you for the feedback :)
I’ll keep all this in mind and do better next time.
Also good job with the judging and dedication, I saw that there was a whole lot more compared to last year but you all kept going, you guys deserved that extension :)

Hype and serious at the same time, good stuff.

Sicarius771 responds:

Thank you :))
That's kinda what I was going for, so I'm glad it got through!

I'll be your first comment and say how awesome this sounds, it is indeed super.

Sicarius771 responds:
