Low beat with the fast high hat, and the echo style notes that repeat has a future feeling. Then the repeating echo type sound breaks up the first part and the second. Adding a snap changes the song a little. groove space feeling.
i see what you're going for and even tho it does take quite a while to get there it's effective once im there. i just think it could be more lush so it's an atmosphere worth getting lost in
One thing that helped me with track structure is understanding measures or "Bars" and how long each section should last. (The numbers at the top of the timeline represent bars, a set of 4 beats in 4/4 time.) Generally speaking a house/tech/edm track goes intro (~8 bars), buildup (~4 bars), drop 1 (~16 bars), breakdown (~8bars), drop 2 (~16 bars), outro. These are all approximate values, it varies greatly depending on the style and taste of the music.
Techno is a very different genre and pretty hard to get right, ive messed it up many times lol but i hope u take some of these suggestions into account
This is an example of the opposite, there actually isnt an obvious 4th bar switchup in this track (suggestion not a rule) the energy of the different elements of the track and the way the bass and melody play off each other is enough to keep this track fresh.
a little mixing note from me - I'd boost the levels on the meat of your track (synths n stuff) and then add some master bus compression to really glue your mix together. Also, I think the spread of different frequencies across your mix is good too.
Very nice my friend. Nice relaxing subtle ambient feel to it. Love the snare you chose too. Oh and just to be clear homie, everything we all produce as far as Dance music is for the most part all repetitive. Kind of has to be as far as beats from a DJ's standpoint of view, that is if you wanna mix. It's the ones that don't produce or listen to dance music that usually say that. It's not a stupid groove homie. Tight track and glad you recommended it. Keep it up big dog.
On the other hand, if you want to produce a track meant to be listened to attentively from start to finish, then it might be important to create some variations, whether in rhythm, melody, or in the types of sounds/effects. Anyway, good job!
Regarding the repetitiveness, it really depends on what you're aiming for. If you want to make a track that serves as background music, like a lounge bar style, the repetitiveness isn’t an issue. It makes me think of the thousands of study compilations, like Lo-fi, which are super repetitive but perfect for that purpose since the repetition actually helps with concentration.
The high hat with the snap bass beat, with the flowing notes sound space like. This has a club vibe going on. Then you had some sticks to break up the repeating beat. Neat.
