<Pony>< Original ><WIP> TwiTrance (Feedback needed)

This actually started as my attempt at Trance...but I don't think it anymore.
Anywho, I've been on a dry streak for too long, and I would love some Feedback on this.
I'm VERY new to mastering/EQing things, and i think the drums show alot of that. So any advice there would be amazing.

Any and all feedback would be helpful.

Alright, this sounds good, but you're a bit repetitive. From about 1:00 on, the hats are hard to hear. And the kicks and snares(or are those claps?) sound really distorted. I think you may have over EQed them. In case you did, Here's a slight "preset" or something that I always do to EQ my drums.

>Kick: increase the volume of the frequencies from about 50Hz and on using a low shelf, almost to the top.

>Clap: increase the volume of the frequencies in the 1800-1900Hz range peak, and increase the bandwidth of the increase to around 70% so that it covers a bit more frequency range

>hats: increase the volume of the all of treble frequencies. But not by too much. We don't want to make the hats standing out too much. Enough that you can hear them in every situation.

>snares: Increase the volume of the frequencies in the 150-200Hz range.

If you EQed like it, or something I said didn't make sense or whatever, just tell me.

I can see what you said about the repetitiveness. I'm currently working on fixing that. As for the drums, I'll work on it. Still really really new to the technical aspect of music, so it's baby steps.

I know that feel, bro
