I really like how you balanced that lead at :45 against everything. It's subtle and yet doesn't get consumed by the 8-bit-style synth rhythm accompanying it. You'd be an awesome composer for video games in my opinion. Your music is different and yet very appealing. Great job.

Brilliant! I can't help but think how good a drum and bass version of this song would be...

Is it cool? It's very cool!

Really nice beat and instrumentals, and excellent vocals. Liked the style very much, and I honestly wouldn't bat an eyelid if I heard this on the radio.

Excellent job, and thanks for sharing :)

Aye I saw your email bro. I play it few times, and I like the vocals. At 1:14 should of been the intro, that was a sick build up. I'm afraid, from 1:14 to 2:24 only stood out to me. I didn't liked the rest.
XyIlent
XyIlent replied 26th Jun 2016 - 9 years ago
hey greg honest as always! haha XD

i dunno man i like the intro as is, it needs alittle more low end synths but ill run with it as is for now.
For the chorus, yyeeaahh that prob needs work and im still working on it so well see how it turns out.

As for 1:14 to 2:24 glad you liked :D the buildup is cool but i guess i prefer to have a cooler mid section than a cool intro.
Having a cool intro hooks people in,
But having a cool mid section is for the people who decided to listen past the intro. Does that make sense? haha i have no idea.

Anyhoo cheers for the feedback as always buddy
Danke

This is really tight! Not your usual track. This features a mysterious, yet gentle style. The intro is very subtle with the bells sounding voice. The vocals is pretty balanced throughout the track as well. I love that lead section from 1:23 - 2:00. The vocals right after that section is spot on, as is the rest of the track. Very nice fade-out usage towards the end. I would really like to maybe possibly make a remix of this. :o Cheers to both Billy and you!

XyIlent replied 25th Jun 2016 - 9 years ago
he GO, gentle.. yeah! thats a good way to describe it haha

"I love that lead section from 1:23 - 2:00"

right? its prob my fav part of the production, the way the bass and that synth comes in is pretty cool.

"would really like to maybe possibly make a remix"
awesome!, i might put together a remix pack if there's interest. Ill send you a message if i put it together :)

cheers g.o

Cool beat! I like your use of synths to create that classic Xyilent feeling. I did have a sensation that the drums were a hair too loud when placed against the other instruments. But dang, your song structure has come so far in such a short time. Great work, listened all the way through! You're becoming more and more unique with every new track :)

Hey Brando,

"drums were a hair too loud"

"You're becoming more and more unique with every new track"
really? awesome!. its not intentional haha

Has a nice laid back chill feel X...I think the side chaining gives it a kind of rhythmic flow that works well (I don`t use side chaining much myself) Maybe there is a happy medium if were pulled back just a little.... It gives the synth brass in the middle bit a nice kind of pumping brass vibe although I`m not crazy about synth brass myself...like the higher keys...does have a bit of an R&B vibe so strikes some nice ground between chill & R&B....sounds good over my way.....Ed
XyIlent
XyIlent replied 12th May 2016 - 9 years ago
Hey Ed, yeah thats what i was thinking the sidechain gives some flow, some momentum but its my first time using it in this type of song so ill learn from this and progress in the next :)

"sounds good over my way"

Good, Good!
Thanks for the feedback Ed.
Always Appreciated bud :)

Really nice Sounds, i am not sure i agree with the comment about GameBoy music, or even the comment that you're a beginner.

Excellent work in my opinion what setup do you use? I use Reason 8 and Fl Studio.

Willing to share any techniques you use to get started, a sticking point for me sometimes.

Good job Xyilent!
I like the good taste on this one
best part for me is the chorus
yes it'd be interesting to hear a soft vocal...
too much side chain for me, sometimes it distract a bit but its only my opinion
congrats

Well done song. Has a Little R & B feel to it along with your side chaining. Not much to say except outstanding as usual.

XyIlent replied 10th May 2016 - 9 years ago
yeah im moving into a kind of hip-hop/r&b style lately. would be cool to have a rapper on that part at 2:11 actually.

"with your side chaining"

i may have went nuts with the sidechaining i dont know lol, i got some new sidechaining software and its awesome so i might have over done it, but it sounds cool so oh well haha

thanks for the feedback buddy :)

Very nice work Xylient! The synths mixed with the melodies you created, were ear heaven. I loved every part of this song. There is absolutely nothing I would change. I would however, like to hear how this would sound with some female vocals on this. Soft vocals, nothing too harsh nor too long, but just enough to capture the sounds even more.

Thanks for sharing, adding this to my favs and downloads!
XyIlent
XyIlent replied 10th May 2016 - 9 years ago
Me and you both buddy haha i think a soft female voc could be awesome with this but its difficult finding the right vocal with the right lyrics.

thanks for the comment man :)

on Xyilent - Dreaming by XyIlent
brilliant!

I have to admit i liked it from the start but i skipped ahead (my ADD) and was not disappointed at 2:00 ... so I went back and listened again to the entire toon.

The surprise at around 2:05 gave me the thought that you can add a teaser early on that hints at what's coming.

Otherwise, brilliant!
XyIlent
XyIlent replied 5th May 2016 - 9 years ago
lol yeah i do that too whith other peoples tracks just to see if its something id like so its all good :)

"gave me the thought that you can add a teaser early on that hints at what's coming"
yup its called foreshadowing, its used alot in movie soundtracks i believe.

thanks for listening :D

Hey bud, awesome sounds here. Clean mix too. Nice use of some of my favourite elements: synths and atmospheric sounds paired nicely with simple hip hop drums =). And you made this in a day!? I'm impressed

"synths and atmospheric sounds paired nicely with simple hip hop drums"
yeah ive only recently started using hip hop drums in songs like this. It was only after listening to alot of a producer 'Robot Orchestra' that i decided to try it.
so if you like that kind of sound i suggest you go listen to him :)

"you made this in a day!? I'm impressed"

yeah a straight 7hour session from 1pm to 8pm didnt really move just made this haha

thanks for the comment and listen :)
