Rejected 3rd song but approved 1st and 2nd

In my honest oppinion,
all rejections on AudioJungle come from
basically "unfinished audio track".

This means the song is good, the ideea is good, but it's done 70% not 100% by their standards.

100% by their standards, and this is what I think they are, from the experience of uploading,
is :

  • good ideea / concept of the track (think "what it will be used for?" and start from there)
  • all channels with proper volumes
  • good compression and EQ where needed, but not tooo much :slight_smile:
  • overall good stereophonic experience
  • excellent mastering to bring up the shine in your audio track

I'm not mentioning here (although I should) that the sequencing of the track should be very precise.
The song should give the listener the impression that is really something you worked professionally on.

For example if you record a lot of guitars or other real instruments,
cut really well the samples, quantize them perfectly so you don't half-overlap with a beat,
should sound like a clock.

In electronic music is easier I agree, but with complex guitars and other real instruments,
you should align everything perfectly.

Also there should be a basic structure of the song (beginning - break - main phrase - break - end)
or any other you want to use, I just mentioned something that just came up, as an example.

good luck!
