Pretty Good

The drums were powerful, the sounds were industrial, and the variation was just right. It just seemed like there was something missing, and I don't know what it is. I can't think of a single thing that a DnB song should have that this one doesn't, but it definitely sounds off. Oh well, props for the awesome song, bro.

SteakJohnson responds:

thanks man! I'll try and fix this missingness feeling

The download thing is a rip-off

The song is excellent, but I can't get the download. I finished the survey and everything, but I haven't gotten any download links or even any kind of proof that I'm eligible for it. Any help?

sorohanro responds:

There is no survey, I have no idea what you're talking about.
As for download, there is a button with a "floppy disk" symbol. black and orange. That you click and you download.

15 hours well spent

The mastering on this song is fantastic, and I can definitely picture a graceful robot. Very nice song, I commend you.

lol thnx man!

Pretty solid

I'm glad you made the tempo so fast, because if it were any slower, it would be boring. At this speed, though, it's just diverse enough to keep me interested without sounding overdone. The only thing is that I kept expecting it to reach some sort of climax, and it never did. It had a few good buildups, but I was always disappointed at the end. This song needs some work, but what you have is a very excellent foundation for something extremely catchy.

Fr34KC responds:

Thanks for this review - but that's kinda exactly my problem... halfway through I went out of ideas that sounded in tune with the rest of the piece so I never got to make a nice climax... but this review kinda motivated me to keep working on it, so thanks =).

Hm.

Things I liked: The percussion was very well arranged, and the quality of the song was impressive.

Things I disliked: There was a lot of repetition in this song, and it got kind of annoying.

Xayro responds:

The percussion is a looped sampled, don't give me too much credit. However, it is sliced and rearranged (like most D'n'B) and all that to fit the song better, and I suppose that's what you meant by well arranged.

The overly repetitive feeling is what happens when you post an instrumental to a song that is built around having vocals. Once the vocals for the track are completed, that feeling of repetitiveness will be gone.

I'm glad you liked the instrumental for the most part though.

Nice.

It's very powerful. The 8-bit sounds were well used and the effects are cool. The only beef I have with this one is that it gets slightly obnoxious/repetitive at times. Otherwise, I like it. :D

tcholloventura responds:

Yeah, you're right my friend.
I totaly agree with you.
I have to improve it...
I'll think about it when i try something new.X]

Thank you for the rewiew.^^

Excellent

Musically, this song is glorious. All of the sounds (including the vocoder carrier) are awesome. The only problem is that "or where to go" is somewhat badly timed and it's bugging me. Other than that, this song is perfect as far as I can tell.

MashedByMachines responds:

The song is made in a rather odd tempo, so some parts may seem badly timed, when they are infact not. But I agree, it sounds kinda off (But I know for sure it isnt)

Thank you for this review :D

Indie

Isn't pretty much every song on this site Indie? I think if anyone had a record label, they wouldn't be posting their music on a site where the downloads are free. Just sayin.

kjhsdgf responds:

true that.
thanks for a comment!

Point Taken

I think you forgot one important aspect: You can not have any desire to be different than any human being on this planet period. If originality exists in you, around you, or remotely near you, trance will be hard for you.

kjhsdgf responds:

word.

Lots of FL channels

Of course there's no way to avoid it, but it appears as though you just selected a few Sytrus presets. The tunes are great, though. If you even fiddled with the instruments a tiny bit, this song would seem less robotic and you'll be more satisfied. By the way, isn't Tamal a great drum loop?

RawGreen responds:

Yes, tamal is good, have you noticed how it's been modified 4 times throughout the song? I also hate to break it to you but 89% of this song was made using styrus. Even the piano, drums, kicks, pads, and remixing sounds were made using styrus.
Sorry if I offended you in any way, but I felt like these were pliable sounds available. As where it's not 100% original, there's no laws saying they're not available.
The piano doesn't seem to be a copyrighted instrument or is it?

If you find something you want to use for your song and you can see it no other way, I recommend you to do it the way you want to make it sound. Okay?

;)
