This is like - oh so good. I'm really surprised that I'm the first to comment on this even though it's been up for 2 months nearly?
Superb melodies and the mix is pretty darn good. Love the sound of the filters on the breakdown.
I can't offer you any *criticisms* per sé ... but rather, maybe just a few things that I would have done differently?
Firstly - I woulda turned the bass up on this a bit more. I can hear the kick thumping like it's supposed to, but anything below that is barely audible to me, but then again, I haven't heard this on a decent sound system.
Secondly - The main synth line, I'm going to call it the "pop corn synth", is present throughout the entire track - including the breakdown - and it creates a little bit of tedium, to my ears at least.. I would have maybe replaced it on the breakdowns for more pad like synths to give an "epic" sort of feel - if that makes sense at all?
and lastly - I probably would have introduced an additional lead at some point to compliment and counterpoint the popcorn synth - something solid sounding without any sort of gating or pop corny-ness lol.
But, that all having been said. Just listening to this one track of yours beats all of mine hands down, and you clearly know a lot more about the craft than I do.. so feel free to ignore me :)
Heya mate, you were lookin for some feedback?
Alright here goes...
Dunno how I feel about the drawn out intro (especially the first 30 seconds). Don't get me wrong, it was a creative way to approach the song from a different, not-so-traditional way. However, I felt that it took just a little too long to get into the real meat of the song (the main synths). Which I feel are dead-on the strongest part of the song. The way you've got the leads, pads, and bass interlaced and flowing is nice. The only thing that I could think to recommend there is maybe punching up the bass stuff a bit more so it can be heard more (and felt with the deep kicks on the floor, ya know?). I'd also suggest going back and watching your levels because I suspect you're getting really close to red (gathering this from all the distortion I'm getting at the higher volumes, mostly on the outer freqs, the lows & highs). Otherwise you're good to go with this!
(ooh, I just had an idea for the intro, change it to kinda mirror how you had it at the end of the song). Lates!
you got talent thaz for sure.....great ear for melody...and arrangement ....great stuff.....just the mix....needs to be softer on the ear....u know nicer to listen to....bit harsh at the mo...once u got the mix sorted u will get a deal no prob....easy!! Great song mate!!!
this is a terrific track man! I caught myself drifting away thinkin about the girl i am really into and my fellins just flowed! That means u got some real trance goin on...just fix the mix now....bit ruff round the edges...but great song!
This reminds me a bit of your song "Deep Red" at the beginning, but then it starts to be different. Good melodies! I like how you've used the cymbals and high hats! As usual for your tracks, it's mixed very well! Very cool track!
Nice groovy trance track! I like the melodies a lot! The intro went on a little long for my tastes... but that's just me. Good beats and bass! Nice fills! All in all a really effective song!
The climax of this track sounds like a storm brewing then explodes,love the easy listening of your tracks..what type of set-up are you using..your tracks sounds really good.
Once again your mixing skills has me going wish I could mix like this...anyway the track sounds well balanced...like I said before I don't know trance, but I do know when something sounds good.
Man I wouldn't worry too much about getting reviewed alot....it's not gonna happen...even when they fav or download still no review.
Man I don't know anything about trance music but I think that I
can still give you a review just by what I do like about it. I love the mix,everything sounds clear and well balanced. I bet you could slam a hip-hop track. This sounds good...rolling kicks yea!!
good work man.
I think this song is a bit boring at the start but then when
that climax happens its well awesome
but that might be the reason why people probly havent reviewed
it because its a bit boring at the start and also there isnt many trance artists on here theres more rappers
but i really do like this song better than the other
so i must fav this aswell
Dude i cant understand this hasnt been reviewed its awesome
and im being completely honest here since ive started giving out completely honest reviews, there is nothing wrong with it
it is as you said just a straight-forward and simple trance track
but when that synth comes in its a very clean and sweet melody
i really do like it man honestly :]
