FairSquare responds:

Haha, thank you! :D

More goodness...

I still like Hopes and dreams the most but, even for this song I liked the movement, and speed... I'll be looking for more...

FairSquare responds:

Thanks for the review! :D

Not rock enough!

I felt like the drums could have been harder.And the guitar could have had more chords . At 1:40,it was nice.The end "To me " should be the beginning.I don't know a lot about rock ,but for some reason "I feel like you held back a bit".Try different things.Slow and steady wins over rush and unprepared.You have a lot of talent .I can hear it.Just don't limit yourself.I could be wrong about this track.But I feel like you left something out.I can't quite put my finger on it.The score would be higher "But I can feel only a part of where you were going with this.Don't be afraid to stand out and grab it.I've rated more of your music than any others.You've got that" it factor"!I hope you keep this things in mind.I do like it.

FairSquare responds:

Slow and steady wins over rushed and unprepared. That definatly fits with this song which i rushed too much.
A few months ago i almost rushed all of my music, but it didn't feel like i was rushing.
Now, i've learned more about composing and i don't rush things anymore.
Thanks for this review, it really cheered me up :-)

Drum fills

Guitar samples sounded too much like a midi but im not gonna judge the song based on that standard. I liked the strumming effect alot though. Felt like the bass could have been a little more busy from the 45 sec mark on. Piano solo was weeaaak :( It matched the pattern of the guitar riff too much. Try some ascending apregios.

Im digging the vibe though so 8/10 5/5 4.20 / 5.00 (+ 0.040)

4.20 score....sweeet

FairSquare responds:

Piano solo? Where? :P
I think you mean the part at 01:54, but that's not a piano, that's a guitar.
And the titel of your review... what are you trying to say with that? That my drum fills are good or that they could've been better?
You may have a point on the bass though, it's a pretty basic bass :P
Anyway, thanks for the review! :D

right up to your usual standards.

nice. often when people make a song like this, they have something that isn't quite metal and isn't quite rock, so it comes out as either a bleating rock or weak metal. you nailed general rock, even using guitar harmonics as the main instrument, which is a balance i have NEVER seen before in my life. epic props.

to be honest, a few of your other recent entries were really not up to your usual standards. this song, while it doesn't make your top 5, is as good as i expect. so i am

i feel like this hasn't been a very helpful reveiw. i honestly can't see anywhere this song needs improving. the drumbeat, guitars, and subtle.... either violin or dist/overdrive guitar in the back all work together.

......and is it just me, or did you actually take my advice and add slight noise to the drums to make them sound more real? becasue those drums sound much less synthed than anything else you have done. that would honestly be the first time anyone has ever listened to me on something like this.

...i love this song. i am so downloading this.

FairSquare responds:

Well, your review IS helpful, but in an other way.
Reviews like this are really nice to get and boost my selfconfidence a bit :P
Thanks for the review man, i appreciate it alot :-)
