Rainbows - Gizmo1205

Nice work Gizmo1205.

I'm sorry to hear about your pet! But when I read the dedication and your name is Gizmo, I was confused... But I get it now. Condolences, these things hurt!

Great track and I think you've been tinkering with it the past weeks, right?

Replying to your reply, yeah uhm if you want that offbeat style, I think you can pull that off. You might consider looking into audio manipulation. That's how I initially started making music. Especially since I started with small app known as Ezmuse + then going from that to Mixcraft. Either way, I'll check back after some time if I remember too. I'd love to hear the changes you make. I still think you made a really good song.

The song is really good, I like the beat and the rythem you got going. The only thing I would not to me if felt like the Female vocals at the beginning we're clashing with the beat. Then at the end. The strings also just don't seem to match the beat. I'm not a fan of that clash if that's intended.

Nice track mate. It's kinda chill but that distorted bass gives it that right amount of power that I like. The vocals are also beautiful. Very well put together overall. Great work.

This song has evolved, for sure. It looks like my brother's advice has too, He almost sounds like me lol. Anyway we all enjoyed watching the track grow

True artists continue working on their art, sometimes for months or years at a time. Sometimes they dont come back to it for years, even decades. Persistence in the face of adversity, and also staying true to the vision that was ultimately was YOURS is very admirable. We have heard massive improvements from the first time we listened to now, so congratulations on that. This is your personal journey and your tribute to your fallen friend, and its only right that that journey remains exactly how you want it to be. We are just bystanders allowed to accompany you, after all.

I just realized I never commented on your hit track.
I don't usually listen to this style of music, but you have to acknowledge the complexity of this rhythm. The sounds are super clear and defined (something I still need to work on, haha), and I especially like it when the strings come in around 1:50. I also really liked another track you uploaded, "Bad Dream."
Given its success... great job.

P.S. I'm sorry about your pet Gizmo. I know what it's like to lose a being who's always loyal by your side. I've dedicated half my life to caring for rescued animals. I don't rescue any more, but I'll stay with the ones I still have (who are very old) until the end.

Best regards, Juan Carlos

Look, Ben, because I dont really listen to this particular genre of music, Im probably not the most suitable person to give a fully accurate opinion. However, its a track with a distinctive style. I really like the vocals and the vocal effects you usedthe groove is great, the bass is very solid, and the drums are tight and well put together. The changes and effects give the track a strong mood, which I enjoyed a lot. Overall, the production is very good. The sound quality is good as wellmaybe its even ideal for this genre, Im not entirely sure. Regards, Chris.

I thought i had commented, ages ago, thats to many pages open, sorry Gizmo, this track is great the structure and build is clever, the changes are all good the vocals are excellent and its a great d&b beat too.
sorry to here about Gizmo, I too had a little Jack Russell up til 13, I'm 60, still miss my little fella, he done everything with me, what a send off tho d&d not some dirge, nice job

Excellent drum and bass track! This should be played in the clubs! Nicely done!

Interesting mix of orchestra sounds and D'n'B drums. Makes groove really rocking. I really like it, thanks for sharing with us!

I love your voice it's so beautiful!

very catchy I love the second part best lots of elements included very good

very great loved it very much

I honestly don't recall the previous version of your song, but I have read some of the comments, including my own. Your track is a beautiful piece filled with remembrance and tenderness, wonderfully structured and performed. Once again, great job Benjamin.
Best wishes, Anthony

Nice that you make this for Gizmo who will hear this in dogs heaven and say to him self...hey i I recognize this music.
That is my best friend letting me know that he is missing me.
8 years back i lost my best friend,my cat Tazzie and still miss him so much so i understand.
The beat is great and understand also why you put the woman vocal on it.

Awesome track dude! Good beat and sound quality. Nicely done!

I don't want to sound harsh. I understand it's very easy to offend someone these days, so I'll stick to the point. The acapella isn't on beat or in key. The lyrics themselves could have worked with a different concept. The problems are actually very obvious, and my ear can really feel them. If I listened to the music without the lyrics, I'd say the track was pretty good. But I want to be honest. Maybe try working on the music separately first and tailoring the lyrics to the finished track. I think you can do it. You can write music, after all.

cool track bro!

Drum n bass was always one of my favorite genres; this track certainly didn't disappoint. A beautiful tribute to your furry friend. R.I.P Gizmo!

This track was interesting. Drum and Bass isn't my thing, but I have to say I really did enjoy this one, the frenetic pace, the peaceful message, the combination of so many disparate elements. Yet, when in combination, they all worked. My condolences on the loss of Gizmo. Thanks for sharing this tribute. I hope all is well.

Superb track!

Great track man i enjoyed my listen :)

Very well done !!! Very interesting work... Cheerssssssssssss !

Very warm lyrics, every word well chosen, carrying emotions for the beloved.
I do not really know much about this genre of music but it was well structured, with beautiful vocals and with good sound and arrangement.
Best wishes, Anthony

RIP Gizmo. Awesome tribute.

That bass from 0,44 is nasty. Really interesting track.
Good job!

Gizmo was a pet I take it. Leave your mind open. I studied Hinduism when I was young. As a result, several of my pets have contacted me from the other side after passing on. We only limit ourselves. Interesting track. Take care, Cosmo

Couldn't edit the previous message, hence this extra one -

Sorry for the loss of Gizmo.

The slight 'awkwardness' that is apparent in the tune makes more sense when you listen to it knowing that the pain of loss has been the reason for its creation.

Honestly, some of the bass progressions and timbres in this are, as the kids say - sick! (are they even using that word nowadays? lol) Thick, raspy and dirty...

And is that one of the Window's error sounds that can be heard in the background? Nice touch :)

Like someone else said, though - the string section (a great counter to the heavy bass, btw) probably needs to be tightened up a little in terms of quantisation so it sits a little better rhythmically.

Tune is quite reminiscent of (but heavier in terms of the punch it packs) to some of the stuff Phonat has done, in that it offers up randomness, is ever changing, keeps the listener on their toes, so to speak, and uses syncopation well.

Thanks for sharing :)

Do your thing - we all improve as we drop one day at a time. Good job

Nice idea and sound for a track for sure bro! But deffo as monzder said im pretty sure when the strings came in they didnt match up but can be fixed up no problem! Good work otherwise

I think I understand what youre going for here. As has already been said, some parts are too loud and or distorted, and I noticed 2 places that need to be brought in time better, but all in all, it paints a picture of someone who is honing their craft. Noone improves by not putting in the work. Many others before you gave up before they ever crossed the finish line, so u should be proud of what youve accomplished thus far. If u ever need help or tips on mixing, u can always send me or my brother Pnnywze an email and we'll help u out. Thanks for sharing your work here and for accepting and utilizing the advice youve been given

We are like rainbows,
a shimmer you can't hold. Beautiful lyrics and the overall idea of the track is really good. The female lead voice is beautiful but there is too much distortion and parts are over-loud. Great tune and beat.

Honest review: I do like the music track here, just needs a little trimming and an extra thin or two on that last transition. There are a couple of issues, one being the track is way too loud in parts. Its causing distortion/clipping and mucking up the track. The female vocal needs the most help, it needs more trimming and time to get the vocals flowing together with the music in time. All in all, not bad! Just needs some adjustments and a little work.
