Re: Talli (featuring. Ashok Gill) - Reproduction
Wasnt a fan.
Vocals were extremely rough. You can easily tell they were just layered on top, with little no actual work done on them. Just throwing vocals on a track doesnt make it a track. You can spend hours on end creating a track to make a sound great...but if you dont the same amount of time on the vocals, the overall piece it bad.
PM me if you wanna discuss it more.
But overall it just sounded like just loops and samples being layered. No real mixing was actually done to it. Even for it being a concept, its low quality. Throwing basic iZotope, Waves, etc presets on bunch of those loops would make it sound more cohesive track.

I don't know what you were doing here. I mean, like Mithu said, it seems like you just threw a bunch of loops together of the same tempo and downloaded the project. It sounds like mixing and mastering wasn't even done on this track. The vocals were rough and just flat. Some reverb and delay could've made them much better. The chant "Lets take it back to the ol skool" made me laugh. But hey, the one thing I loved was the ending. The flute and tumbi thing you did there was decent, but it needed some reverb. One more suggestion: make a rough draft of your project and play the 3 day game. You wait 3 days for your ears to refresh and then listen to the beat. If it sounds decent (and be honest with yourself), then you're in the right direction. If it sounds trash, trash the project and start over. As producers, we know how much time it takes to make any beat. It takes sweat and tears. But I argue that it's healthy to start all over sometimes. This way you're learning more about your music and sound, and giving a lot more room to grow on that sound. Apologies if I sounded at all harsh or bullying as I was just being straight-up honest and speaking my mind
