Hi Romain, Thanks for listening.

Time: I think 4 to 6hr to create the sounds and the basic drums and 
synth sequences after that 2hr to record the vocals, 1hr to write the 
lyric. Another 2hr to get the first part done. I spend a lot of time on 
the modular sound starting at 3:40. It's a basic sound going into a 
analog delay (blacet) and a very hard to temper analog reverb (neural 
agonizer from tellun). I spend at least 3hr on only recoding this part, 
I can't remember how long it took me to create the patch. I've been 
working on this track for 4 weeks, so that's about 3hr of music time a 
week for me apparently ;-)

Going to look into these tips of yours. Thanks!

>> Nice track :) two things, I’d drop the delay on the bass sound (or is it on the kick)? It takes up a lot of headroom in the right channel. Also on the vocals, the distorted reverb has an extremely bright/long tail. I’d shorten this. Perhaps add some sidechain on the synths from the drums for additional oomph :)
