Thanks, that is exactly the sort of feedback I need. Now that I'm comfortable with the basic workflow of note programming in Live my bigger goal is to develop my sound design skills, whether it be to build my own sounds from scratch or modulate them within the narrative of a track like you suggested with that pad. I know I can put a piece of music together, but its the detail work in the soundscape that makes or breaks it and that I know will require plenty of learning and practice. And a set of monitors instead of just my Grado 80s.
Good call on the kick reverb! Its great to have some fresh ears - I listened over and over so many times trying to get the drum build at the end halfway decent that eventually you can stop hearing something that important.
'Kids These Days' - I like the variation with the high-hat, and the fade when that nice melody kicks in left me wanting more... good stuff
Here's something I put together recently as an exercise that could definitely use some sonic critiquing. Its more straightforward electronic, Amen samples and all. I like the music but the pad needs complete reworking and I need to determine what I did to mask the double hit of the bassline in the middle section.
