I haven't seen any feedback on this so far, but I reckon the kick could be quieter in the mix, and the snare a bit louder. Just my opinion though. Really like the vibe/sound of the track otherwise. Curious to see what it sounds like with more development!

I agree with the rest of the commenters. The snare needs to be louder and snappier, and the kick needs to either go down or the rest of the track needs to come up.

the snare is more louder in the first half of the track than the second. it's a bit crispy...in my opinion there too much high frequencies

I just started SoundGym back in Novemebre, and all I have is my laptop (DELL Latitude E5540) and some headphones, no other speakers. Besides decent headphones (I have the Sony Stereo Headphones MDR-7506) is there anything you all can recommend to get better sound quality so I can hear certain frequencies, distortion, any better?
Anyone have any experience with SoundID Reference from Sonarworks?
Thank you all!
