Fallin Love arrangement - What am I doing wrong? « General Music Discussion « Forum

Alright, I didn’t know exactly what thread to post in, but anywho, I’ve been making a midi file of Fallin Love from Mother in Anvil Studio by ear. I think it’s the bassline that I’ve got wrong, but it just doesn’t sound right compared to the OST. So, any modern-day Mozart’s wanna take see if it really DOES sound wrong or if it’s just my own paranoia? Any feedback is appreciated!

One problem I think is that the vibes (or sounds like a vibraphone part idk) is overpowering the melody.
Also when doing an arrange, I don’t particularly stress over having every detail sound like the ost… otherwise the arrange doesn’t feel original at all. So I think what you have is good, just try to bring out the melody more.
