an Ode to Bender by Vadz (in 2 parts)

[vadz]

vadz - an ode to bender part 1 (5:43 * 160 kbps = 6.5 mb)
vadz - an ode to bender part 2 (4:49 * 160 kbps = 5.6 mb)

features samples from Futurama
first part is a bit pop and straight
second is dark and crunchy

need your comments, especially about part 1 mastering

[xfive]

part 1 sounds like you just need to sort the mix out. Gotta fix that before any sort of mastering can be done.
The kick and bass could be a bit more prominent, espeically the kick. It kinda loses power as the track goes along.
part 2 is more even, but I think the main synth could be turned down a bit.

[vadz]

thanks for your reply.
will work on them further...

yeah knock back some of the sounds.. make more mysterious.... add soome nice verbs and delays.. there's some good ideas in here.

Track 1.

I like it.

I also agree with above comments.
The kick could be clearer, more defined, have a little more top end in it, and needs to be separated from the bass.

The main offbeat synth pad that comes in is a little too loud, and also has some nasty nagging frequencies that need to be reduced. Also some verb or something would help.

The sawtooth bass that swims around during the break could be larger, and also maybe have more stereo separation.

Nice ideas here, but the mix does need cleaning up, and also could do with an injection of warmth.

thanks again, fellas. nice recomendations - working on part1 now...

theres not much i can say that hasnt already been covered by the other guys.. but id like to say that i found this tune an interesting listen. as dirty said about the offbeat synth being too loud, i do agree with that, but personally i dont like the sound istself.... however thats just my personal opinion... keep it up dude.. sounding good
