Hi Pulstate,
I'm assuming your two latest songs you were just experimenting. Didn't seem to be something you would make if you tried.
1) Maybe its just me but I notice you use like the the exact same eq levels for your drums in a lot of your songs. It would be nice to have high cut filtered drums once in a while to add some different spin to your songs.
2) The fx sounds were pretty cool. Reminds me of space and the vast emptyness.
3) 45 seconds in finally the bass comes in. Was waiting for that. Nice bass sound.
4) You don't really have much of a lead.....unless your bass is the lead. The other instruments seem to be all background support. I was hoping for a nice lead instrument (besides the bass) to take control over this song. Oh well
5) Your transitions are a bit slow for my taste. A 15 second transition is a bit too long for me. However, at 2:32 the new instrument sounds great.
6) 2:47 I didn't like this part. The delay is okay, but the composition sounding like some happy ancient chinese pattern. It did not match with the mood of this song. Fortunately the bass that eventually game back brought the seriousness to this song again.
7) I'm gonna have to hammer you on the lack of diversity. There isn't an astounding amount of stuff going on.
So, you did say you ran out of inspiration a quarter away through. I'm not sure why you just took a break for a while from this song and come back to it when you had the inspiration. The bass sounded really professional and this song could have been a guaranteed sign..... I'll still give you a 5/5 and 9/10 review.
Bye for now
