Zedd & Alessia Cara - Stay (Sosa Remix)

[Sosa]

Listened a few times here is some constructive criticism:

The vocals get off key in the beginning because you don't change chords and it's very unpleasant to even an amateur trained ear. I like the build up, but the drop wasn't as big as you built it up to be. Also, there needs to be more building up to the build up. It was too sudden. There is lots of unused space. The drum beat that comes in at 0:25 is odd and reminds me of a polyrhythm which doesn't really go with this song or style of music. The drum beats, in general, are a little odd, but never be afraid to try new things. I think you could have spent some more time on mixing it together. I know it sounds fun and games to get a song done in a day, but realistically, to get quality, it's going to take weeks to months. Remixes are faster though. You didn't do horrible, you're starting out better than a lot of producers, I'm impressed. I hope my suggestions can help you in the future. Excited to hear more.

Thanks for your suggestions!

Really good. Though, it sounds sort of incomplete, like it is missing some things when it transfers to drop. Like the idea is there but there is some dead space. Otherwise, awesome.

Expanding on this.. Yes it's good, but during the buildup there's so much going on and then it sounds so empty.
I'm not a producer (I am a musician though, and have written a couple things), I'm not going to tell you how to produce your music, but I think a cleaner buildup and a dirtier / heavier bass during the refrain would help it.

But otherwise keep up the good work.

Alright, I'll take that into consideration! Thanks, though!

As a producer, I completely agree.
