summraized Review:
overall though I think this song is below average. The build ups are not good, Too many breaks that seem to be misplaced, not enough alternations in the mid point of the song and the ending is too drawn out.
What i didnt like about this song.
well the begining I liked I thought it was good. It had a slow build up, then to me seems to change at 0:50 for about 15seconds.
at 1:04 it takes a break til 1:12, then a slow build up to basically the same beat.
It has 1 different verse from earlier that lasts about 2 seconds. I guess im saying its repititive, thats not to say i hate repitive songs. Just that i think the repitive-ness is not as suited in this song. i just think this song should have had more alterations around 1:30 point in particular.
we encounter yet another break at 1:45, with another slow build up, and this build up reaches its peak at 2:20 and its not much of a build up, for using all that time and it just stops at 2:32
then another build up starts at 2:46, and this build up gets quiter, to where you can barley hear it at 3:05.
Then we are left with quiteness to 15 to 20 seconds this is the part i dislike the most about this song i dont really see why you leave 15 to 20 seconds at the end with no sound. its like your teasing your listener to skip to the next song or something. Nothing annoys me more than this
If this 20 second break at the end was not there i would call this song "decent" and give it a 4/5 and 8/10 score. im sorry but im giving it a 3/5 and 7/10 score.

Author's Response:
points well taken. this was probably the first song i ever put together in FL studio, and i was still playing around with the idea of using loops, had no idea how to automate, and knew absolutely nothing about mixing or effects. if i revisit it, i'll let you know, the feedback is much appreciated and very helpful :-) keep up the good reviewing
