Feedback on my Retrowave beat

Hey there,
today I’m here to share a new project of mine with you, and get some proper feedback.

As the title suggests, the genre I’m going for is retrowave / synthwave. I aim to make more of these in the future for my coming cyberpunk-style game project.

Be as harsh as you want with the feedback, as long as it is constructive critism, I’m happy.

Thanks!

Best regards,

Sounds really cool. Would be better if you add a good start because it just starts immedietly. Also its quite repetitive which just makes it boring honestly.

Thanks for your useful feedback! I can relate to what you’re saying, because the dynamics and the intros/outros of tracks are very important and can heavily influence the overall feel.

Yes and ofcourse the middle part as its just one base repeating and repeating.

As Crypt mentioned it does get very repetitive really quickly. Try adding in different chords, different melodies, etc to give the listener something new and interesting to listen to.

I do like the laid back 80’s synth vibe it gives off though. You’re heading in the right direction so far!

There is a real good atmosphere in this music. I like that :+1:

UPDATE:
New, redone version releasing this week for further feedback!

Thanks for all your valuable feedback so far, stay tuney!

Classic and retro, I wouldn’t ask too much but it could add those cymbal crashes… Where are they??

And for the arpeggiators they could use a better treatment to counter the repetitiveness. Either by stopping and playing, or change up the pattern slightly.

Woah, I haven’t seen this topic in ages. Since I’ve wrote my last post, a lot has happened regarding the song, and only for the better!
The ending is still unfinished since I’m working on other musical projects right now, but I can send you the new version as it is now.
