jeezus i thought i was listening to basshunter for a sec
too oldschool ugly to be good, too busy, annoying. very annoying..
constructive critisism... try using non generic hi-hats, remove the horn, use another instrument... try a lower bpm.. eq ur kick, its really annoying.
to much echo, the track is too linear, not enough depth. ECHO does not mean Depth.
count your bars please, they are off in a few places, makes the track sound very odd.
overall track needs to be re-worked in terms of EQ.
good for a first try though..
ps. plz do not add vocals.

im pretty sure i could have made that beat or something close to it on my phone..im sorry but constructive criticism = i feel likei jumped back in time almost 15 years...maybe take a step back and listen to some new stuff from different artists see what everyones been putting out the last year or 2 and see the trend that has followed over the past 10 years

Let me get this straight.
Are you trying to promote yourself as a DJ, music producer or both? Having been in the industry a while back, you're going to need to figure that out first because as of right now, I have no clue as to what you're trying to do.
Secondly, I don't know what your musical background is but after listening to your track, you need to take some lessons in basic/elementary music composition.
melody sounds like a ripoff of east clubbers lol.

i didnt intend to bash him, it's probably very beginner stuff.
i can see him taking the main melody and turning it into something better.
i think he just needs practice and to grow out of the rave sounding thing. it's a very young sound. only kids like that stuff.

I like it. I think you need better transitioning between changes of melody and the symbol/clapping sound towards the end makes it seem like you are using a cheap soundboard, also doesn't go well with the rest of the song- take it out. Also the ending could of been a bit more fluent.
Does seem a little oldschoolish but there's nothing wrong with that if the song is good. Reminds me of Alice DJ.
It's easy to throw comments like it sucks or you are crap. People forget you aren't born to be at tiesto level- rather you work hard to get there.

song is boring, has the generic techno sound to it... nothing special, missing vocals that say "Pump the bass" or something similar...
He's just a friendd... Yea, it should have more vocals, maybe more effects then i think it would be great.
Thats not what i meant...
