"It's ok..."
date: August 5, 2009
I'm not too sure why everybody is saying this song is amazing, no offense to you, it's good, but I'm not seeing this "godlike omfg awesome song" that everyone else seems to, sure, you mixed the two styles of ambient and drum and bass together pretty good, but there are some major downfalls, for a starter, the drums are a bit simple and repetitive, I could barely hear a kick drum in them, if you sliced that from a loop, you need to use a better loop.
Another main problem in the song would be that if you are going to use any type of style drum that is similar to drum and bass style, or breakbeat for that matter, you must have some kind of actual bass; something this song is missing, most people who listened may not have noticed this, or the essential side of this, but I did :P
You need a nice deep sub bass in there, it'd mix well with the other synths, trust me on that one. If it fits with it then also try using a more definitive bass on top of the sub too, just to give the song the extra spice and flavour.
Overall this song is good as a concept of something new to your style, but it is very far off of being something that is going to shake the earth, try adding in the things i mentioned earlier in the review, get a nicer drum loop, slice it up, and in them basses, and get more synths in there. (but dont overdo them!)
Don't take this review harshly, i've not written this to be mean in any way, just trying to hand out some constructive criticism.
Thanks for reading, dont be lazy and only read half way then pretend to read it all! It should help you!!!
