Beginners share your track, and others give any feedback.

sounds like you've got the general idea

it lacks a sense of space and the composition doesn't take me anywhere, but that's kinda par for the course in this idiom I guess, keep at it

I harp on this a lot with guys new at electronic music, but developing a multi-layered sense of front to back space without relying too heavily on artificial reverb is KEY to a great track... reading up on psychoacoustics, particularly how we perceive distance thru treble roll off and/or phase shift at specific frequency ranges can go a long way. This is intuitive recording live performances with microphones and is built into your mix if you have half a clue, but in electronic music one must resort to more trickery than in other idioms.

the mix sounds very good, well balanced... its not my kind of music (too poppy to fit my electronic taste, not poppy enough to suit my taste in pop music)... so I can't make a further comment

its very polite though, lacks grit... but if that's what you meant to do then great job

There's something really awesome about finding this comment a year after it was posted... and realizing the song later went to #1 in Norway on iTunes and was performed live on TV to over 180 Million people. "Making A Hit" indeed :) Thanks for writing one of my 2017 favorites.

I think what's great about having a hit in scandinavia is that everyone in America assumes its really glossy pop or black metal... I am sure there's other music in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland but its pretty much Abba, Ace of Bass and Gorgoroth as far as the average person in America knows, and that song definitely fits in category one. As I originally said, the song was very well-executed in its idiom... and that idiom? is dancy, scandinavian uber-pop! The fact that this song was a hit in Norway lived right up to my provincial American expectations of that country just like the fact that a slender majority returned the guy from "The Apprentice" as President of the USA lived right up to my expectations of the hillbillies I reluctantly share North America with. Norway buying lots of pop music is of course harmlesss humor, while my country is more like "if you don't laugh you'll cry" situation.... but both of these are examples of people living up to their stereotypes 100%
