This is the predecessor of the other track "So Quaint," and this is just what I have so far of the drop. All I did was mix the basses and chords/leads into a different flow, i filled up the empty spots with what should have been the snares and hats. The pace is a little faster and consists of more dynamics in bass modulation. My main question is "How does it flow?," and "Are the drums viable? Can they be heard clearly?" I always have a problem with making sure all the elements flow completely, at least in this genre, along with adjusting the sidechain and volume levels of the kick to the melodic elements and bass. To me, they sound fine, but a second ear is always the best. Any other criticism is highly appreciated and welcomed. If there are any questions on how I made the sounds that you hear, just say so in the comments.
