**Some advice ?**

Hi the community !! 🙂

[https://soundcloud.com/poukav/happy-monday-original-mix](https://soundcloud.com/poukav/happy-monday-original-mix)

Here is the link of my first own song. I mean that’s not a remix. Created A-Z.  
So any advice, comment, point of view is welcome.

As I don’t have many guys who know this kind of stuff around me, style and producing music. That would be really great !!

Cheer from France ! 👍

Good start I’d say. Not really my thing, but you have a good basic idea there. I think if i had to give some feedback on it i’d say you should be trying to have something happen every 8-16 bars or so just to mix it up. Songs can get a little boring when that doesn’t happen. It doesnt have to be anything big, even just a little drum break for like 4 beats or something. I would also work on the levels a bit, the main synth might have been a bit loud compared to the drums.

I actually quite enjoyed this. To be perfectly honest I’m studying as I type/listen so it’s not getting my full attention. But it’s got a good groove. Some nice elements in there that keep it moving forward. The sound/synth selection seems to be internally consistent and all work well together. Overall no real complaints. Mix wise it could use some polishing but otherwise I liked it.

Good work, Keep it coming!
