This is one of my first near completed songs. The song has work to be done still but I'd like to see what people think so far. It helps to have some good criticism to really aid me in making the song and myself as an artist greater.

Turn it down! ><

It's not bad, very repetitive though, but the volume is the main problem here. Your kick is getting very very distorted and muddy and this track is clipping all over the place. Your audio is being very badly damaged because of the volume you exported it at. If you don't know what clipping is, you should really check out this youtube video about the so called "loudness war". (and its wikipedia page as well) Since I'm not allowed to post html, just search in youtube "loudness war" and click on the first result. I don't mean to be harsh here but this is a major problem and proper mixing is essential if you ever want to progress with your music. (and this is the MOST important thing of all to know about mixing!) All you need to do is turn the volume down on the main channel to a reasonable level and re-export and it should be pretty much fixed.

C4STR0 responds:

Yeah I went back a little while ago and realized that I had the delay on the master channel, so that along with the bass boost is what is giving it that distorted sound. The volume being on max didn't help either, heh, rookie mistake(This was my first song I ever made XD)! I'm probably going to take this down, condense it to deal with some of the repetitiveness and clear up the sound before I resubmit.

Frickin Badass Song.

I'll keep rating this a 5;

in return, can you rate <calling> by callmetoxic a 5? appreciate it.

C4STR0 responds:

Hey thanks for the 5! And I rated the song "Calling" a 5, but not just because you asked, but because I really thought it was an impressive piece of work.

Not bad

I think this has a lot of potential. Mabe a little bit less of the scratchy sound and more lead and bass would help. Try makeing it bridge into another melody to make it alittle less repetitive ya know. I am sure you will get it to be great. = )
Keep it up Yo

C4STR0 responds:

Yeah, its got a lot of work to do. I should have condensed it since its just a rough demo, its a bit long for the melody loop. Thanks for the review!
