Advice

Hey, I’m posting a demo here because I feel like people on this sub might understand the sound I’m going for better than bigger music production subreddits. This really isn’t self-promo I’m just looking for honest feedback from people with similar taste.

I’ve been feeling pretty frustrated with this track. When I first made it, I thought it felt amazing really exciting and kind of electrifying and I was super inspired by it. But now the more I listen to it, the more I feel like something is off, and I can’t fully tell what.

My biggest fear is that it sounds too much like that very specific “2021 indie dream pop” thing in a bad, dated way. Like it feels too tied to a moment instead of timeless. At first I genuinely loved it, but now I’m second-guessing everything.

I recently added a second bassline, and there are still a lot of things that need work vocal levels, mixing, arrangement, etc. so I know it’s far from finished.

I’d really love to know: what do you think the actual issue is? Does something feel off to you? Would you personally listen to something like this?

Any honest feedback would really mean a lot.
