OUT A-Tuu - Cosmodrive [Independent]

[Ramunc]

Hello everyone,

These two new trance songs are my debut tunes under the alias A-Tuu, the A side Cosmodrive and the B side Beta-K. I have been sitting on Beta-K for a year, being my first Trance song that I have completed, but never felt it was a strong A side, that's why this month I managed to finish Cosmodrive, which felt more deserving of the A side of a single release. Hope you enjoy the songs, I am eager to hear feedback and long live trance !

Hearing some nice ideas! I like the vibes they're giving off and the overall choice of instruments is pretty good as well (aside from FL Keys' Grand Piano, that one honestly made me chuckle because I wasn't expecting it lol).

As for the things that could be improved upon: I'd say that the biggest problem in both tracks come from the mixing. Some instruments sound a bit too loud like the leads in both songs' drops, I can hear a lot of compression on the pad in the break of Cosmodrive too, for example. Apart from that, the only other things I can mention would be that both tracks have some parts that sound a bit empty (Beta K mostly) and that both main melodies sound a bit boring and/or random to me.

So, to close off: I'd say you're headed into the right direction for sure, curious to hear more from you.

Thank you very much for the thorough and honest comment! I will be keeping them in mind when working on my next tracks, and making sure to keep ironing out things especially with the mix (and hopefully keep dropping a random FL Easter egg in tracks here and there ).

An interesting unusual sound design, similar to the 90s I liked Cosmodrive

I am happy to hear you enjoyed Cosmodrive! That's the sound I'm looking to create, old-school style trance like the classics.
