Nice work Gary. I'm currently listening on headphones as usual, so I'm assuming the low end is okay. If I was into dancing I'm sure this would get me up on the floor  Is this made up from samples and loops? cheers andy

Well it sounds okay to me Gary. Are you generally happy with the arrangement and mix?

Not really Gary... I use synths and stuff, but I don't do "Dance Music" as such. Not deliberately anyway haha! From what little I know of the genre, this is sounding okay, in terms of both arrangement and mix. We could do with someone more familiar with Dance to pop in and comment... cheers andy

Sounds nicely crisp and clear - great mix for the song style IMO. I also liked vocal layers.

I think this is really good Gary. Your mixes are always good, so no issues there. My only nit would be the piano you used isn't jiving with everything else as well as it could. As important as it is in this tune, I think it either needs some more treatment (or less, can't tell what you've already done), or just a better sample.
Regards,
Dan

Very nicely done. When it started I was like, oh no, it's way to high end but you fooled me. If I didn't have a hard time even walking I would get up and dance to this (fell on the mountain trail last night).  For me, this is one of my favorite dance type tunes because there is a vocal that keeps it interesting and doesn't get redundant. Without a visual or a vocal/lead instrument, much of the electronica leaves me wanting. I understand they work well in dance clubs, etc, but sitting in a hotel room with no reference they fall short, for me! This one really had it all. I'm gonna keep an eye on you, buddy!

Gary, this is what I envision modern dance music to sound like. The thumping bass is there along with all the sparkle in the upper register. This sound club ready to me. Congratulations on a string of good songs and mixes.
