Wow

This was very similar to Tiesto. I like how the song flowed. There were plenty of nice sounds that all fit into the nice beat set. I liked that side-chain on the piano, that was very epic sounding! My favorite part was around 2:00, that beat was amazing! It had plenty of sounds to go with it, but nothing was too heavy or overpowering. All of it really fit together, and not in a bad way. It all sort of flowed perfectly.

10/10 and 5/5 bud! You earned it. :)

Nice!

What i would have liked to hear was more snare drum. And, reviewer below me, i think it sounded pretty desperate at times. It was very nice, reminds me of some of the music from Final Fantasy 12 or something. I can definatly see this in a game, it has great tempo and plenty of good orchestral sounds, which are always hard to do. Nice work bud!

10/10 and 5/5. Favorite, and maybe, a download. I dont know yet :D

Whoa...

Happy hardcore music? It's a little slow for happy hardcore, but it works just the same! I like the overall composition, it has some very nice aspects. The piano is pretty nice, it has a good delay and reverb set to it, and i like the progression it adds to the song. The percussion is okay, there was a few odd things in there, like the clap. It sounded a bit too dry to me, but it could just be me. Everything else was perfect!

10/10, 5/5. Nice!!

Wow...i never thought you would have given me a review like that! Wow! Thanks Kaizer! It means a lot! I'm glad you liked the piano aswell, that's something i thought would sound good with the trance part. Kinda experimental, lol. And, it wasnt intended to be happy hardcore realy, it was supposed to be a happy trance song, lol. But it got a bit messed up. lol. Thanks for the awesome review anyway! Means a lot! Bye!

A little odd.

The intro was nice, that saw was amazing. I think, if you faded it out into the bassline that comes in, it would sound pretty cool. The song is a little awkward at first, because the bass you have, and the drums, dont really compliment each other all that well, which is hard to do. However, later on in the song, when more instruments come in, it sounds much better. I felt that the percussion was lacking in something, there was just a kick and a snare.

The good, because there is plenty: It sounds a lot like a Breaktrnce song, which is what you were aiming for. It has a definate flow to it, a lot of nice saws and pads. The piano was the best by far, it was very professional sounding.

Overall, nice work! It needs a bit of experimenting, but it's good!

9/10 and 5/5.

TheComet responds:

yeah agreed on the bass, this was originally going to be a DnB track and I didn't really tweak that bass much. I'm thinking of maybe doing a remix or at least a cleanup of this soon enough, the first half of the track I think I could've done much better on after hearing it a few times.

Drumline I'm not sure on what to do with it if I redo this, any more complex and it kinda feels overpowering, but any less and it's too minimalistic...we'll figure that out when we get there XD

I've been getting a few compliments on the piano, I kinda figured out a system for making my piano scores if I'm using a Fortune style piano (with the delay). Figure out the chord structure of the measure, then build a single arp out of that with the piano, allowing it to echo for at least half a measure, then for the next measure, make another arp that could stack on top of the previous one nicely.
Alot of it ends up by ear though, but the system is a good start I guess.

Thanks for the feedback, it's this constructive criticism I really crave :D

Wow

Thats basically all i can say about this. It has plenty going on, so let me start off....

Percussion: The samples you used were amazing. A lot of them fit together with almost a jungle type feel, however, they do add a nice touch to the song.

The bass: Another wow. It was more of a badass pad, but it served nicely as a bass.

The arp/gate: That was pretty cool. I liked how it had a very spacey and ambient feel to it.

It was overall a very good song. My one complaint would be the repetativeness of it, but i cant lower the score just because of that, only because the rest of the song is awesome!

You sir, get: A 10/10, A 5/5, and a Favorite. Nice work bud!

-If you have time, could you review one of my songs? Dont feel obligated, im only asking. :)

Awesome!

This is really cool man! It has a nice beat to it, and it's going so nicely that i have to do this in parts...

Percussion: No complaints here. It fits very nicely, nothing overpowers too much. A lot of the samples you used/created are very professional sounding, and it makes for a very good song.

Bassline: Awesome too. It has a definate punch to it, but still fits in with the rest of the song.

The breakbeat part: Whoa. I would never have expected that, but it's very nice! The high-pitched piano (?) is a little annoying, but after a while, i started to enjoy it.

After the breakbeat, i liked the song even more. The percussion, and that one sliding synth, really brought this song home for me. It's a great peace of trance, very professional.

You sir, get a 10/10, a 5/5, and a McAwesomeBurger. :)

(If you could review one of my songs, that would be nice. But please don't feel obligated, i'm only asking.) :D

Rawrthaas responds:

Thanks!

Nice!

That arp is really cool in the begining, i like how it adds an almost ambient feel to the song. The The bass is kinda off with the rest of the song in the build up, it's stuck on E and the rest isnt. Still, it isnt bad. The part after the build up (the one with the vocals) needs more to it, you have the same beat after it.

It does need work, but it isnt bad. 9/10 and 5/5.

EQualed responds:

well, thats good to know
i must admit, i haven't spent much time on any of my music atm :P

i'll spend some time on this i think :P

Kick ass!

God damn bud, you got yourself a sick house song here! And it's full! It has a lot going on, and yet nothing over-powers anything else. It all flows nicely together, and the percussion is VERY professional sounding. This was a marvel to my ears, believe me!

10/10 and 5/5!

DigitalPulse responds:

Woah! Thanks man, I really took my time on the percussion (layered 5 snare with 2 claps) :)

Thanks for the review,

Digital Pulse

Very nice!

A very nice intro! I like the echo-ing wood-chime sort of sound, it is a very nice way to start the begining of this piece. Im not sure if thats an orchestral string sample or a choir in the begining as well, but it adds a lot of ambience and mystery to the song. I like the slight percussion in the song, that funny little "wahowahowaho" that is really faint. It is cool though!

Nice work man! 10/10 and 5/5!

ReFreezed responds:

The echo of the wood chime was actually a small hell to get right so I'm glad you like the result. :)

Thanks for your review!

Basic FL

I find this problem with a lot of users on NG. They use basic FL Studio stuff, ex the Dance pack, which is what i hear prominently in this song. The rest of the song is very good, the melodies are nnice. At points, the melody over powers the drums, which it shouldnt. You cant really hear the kick either, because the FL kick sucks.

Update your libraries of percussion stuff. Go!

7/10 and 3/5.

KrazeyOne responds:

Thanks for the review, and I shall find some perc stuffs. :D

Whatever you see here is.. well, mind blowing. Contact me at: dgm.kaizerwolf@gmail .com
