Finished my entry for this remix contest today. Not sure I'm allowed to publish this, but I dare sharing the private link here anyway

Obviously my skills don't yet live up to what I want to achieve, but this was quite fun nonetheless.
Always appreciate any and all constructive critique and comments!!
P :D

Hi everyone,
I love 80s music so learning about Synthwave was great fun
With plenty of compression and some nice gated snares, it seems like you're well on your way with this genre - blimey, am I actually starting to become familiar with genres!?
I've called my remix "Syncession" - where "Succession" meets "Synthwave"!
Anyway, here's my entry. Hope you like it:

Cool! I'm digging this 80's style too. Really fun!
I'm probably a bit of a mainstream guy, so this is great for me!
Just finished the advanced synthesis course this morning, and it was really good. Nice overview of Vital there as mentioned.
I do wonder though, is Serum 'better' in any way given so many have it - and pay for it? The two seem very similar in use, and can't imagine the sounds you'll get out of either is very different in the end? I understand there are loads more presets for Serum, but in terms of making your own, that won't matter much, would it? I mean even going full Pro on Vital is only $80 compared to $189 for Serum.
I've been a little (a lot) intimidated by the interfaces of Massive X and Alchemy, but I really like Vital's - it seems very visual and inviting to me.
Had this for breakfast. Just awesome stuff. Can't wait for the rest of this series ... or obviously I have too of course, and will! :D
This is gonna be awesome! :D
I haven't done the advanced synthesis yet, but it's on my to do list.
BTW: Anything vocal tips/tricks/tidbits are also always welcome. I'm particularly struggling trying to find the right type, balance, levels of reverb/delays - not helping much it's apparently so different from genre to genre as well ... (?)

Also, @petter, did you check out Seppa's sub bass masterclass, there were some really good vital tips in that if I remember rightly.

I did! It's a great course. However, I was thinking a little bit more in depth and focused on Vital. There's a number of courses on other synths, and since Vital is a great option, and free, I thought it could be worthy of som love, that's all
I don't know if any of these are covered already, still plugging through courses
- More on EDM / Future rave / Pop
- Something on Synthwave would be cool, doing this for my main Succession project and I like it!
- Layering of sounds; bass, pads, leads, drums. This is hard!
- A Vital synth tutorial would be great too!
