Looking for criticism.

Started messing with LMMS about 6 months ago and ended up making a YouTube channel.

I'm looking to get some input on my newest song called 'Flow'. Thanks for taking the time!

This is a really nice track!
Kind of laid back/chilled track, the only criticism I can really give is that the bass saw is maybe a bit too loud, but other than that there really isn't anything else. Nice job!

Thanks! I'll be more careful of the bass from now on.

This is really great! I especially love the panning effects. I agree with H011IS that the bass saw is a bit overpowering.

In my opinion, the snare is a little heavy in the intro, and could use a high pass filter. But later, during the main bit, it works well the way you have it.

It's really difficult to get a good ending with a song like this, and you absolutely crushed it. Hats off! Great work, I subbed and hope to hear more of your music in the future!


I have one question - where did you get the short vocal samples?

Thanks man! Yeah, I can see the snare being a bit loud in the beginning. I tend to get a bit of tunnel vision after messing with a song for so long. Much appreciate, my friend!

You got alot of good advice already, concerning the bass and snare etc.
So I have nothing to say.
Except, very cool nice track dude. And I like the vocal parts too. :)
