So yeah first off you'll notice its alittle low sounding on the volume but like my buddy Badman inc once said.. TURN YOUR FUCKING SPEAKERS UP!!!! so yeah basically make sure you raise the volume.. I didnt want to send this to my mastering program just yet..
Pretty much this is my 2nd attempt at a Dance song mixed with a little trance in it as well.. I was going for repetitve and also not repetive.. If you notice it keeps basically the same melody through out the tune.. but every 4bars are so theres a new transtion or countermelody w/e...
Rate it on how well its constructed and the instruments used... special effects all that.. I also tried a little bit of mixing on this song to get the kick drum to not make bad sounds with the bass drum.. still a couple blending issues with some different types of bass like analog sounding basses but for all i think its pretty good.. telll me what u think...
Plugins Used....
Nexus--Drums and Lead Melody... Saw Init with some parametric EQing
Z3ta-Counter Melodies and Harmonys
Sytrus--Basses and Pads
Vanguard--Gated Basses
Fruity Loops XXL 5
Smooth.
I love a lot of the components of this song, the short bass and the leads you used for some of the parts really made this song for me. Specially the way you alternated the notes in the lead made this song a ride, im still working on my house tracks and getting my own sound and this does indeed gives me some ideas for a future track. Nice job dewd.
Not Bad...
The mix is pretty decent, even though it is somewhat transparent. You should think about adding some other effects to fill out the song before the big moment at 1:52. I understand you are trying build to a crescendo there, but still the sound is pretty transparent. Even that section could use another instrument or two.
I love pianos, but I'm not really crazy about the piano in the beginning of this song. It sounds robotic to me. It needs some variation in the velocities to give it a real human touch. As it is right now, it just sounds like typical FL Studio quality, which is never a good thing.
The percussion is pretty decent. I really like the snare. It sounds pretty good, and really fits well with the rest of the ensemble. All the percussion does really, but for some reason I just felt the snare was a perfect choice for this song.
There isn't really anything "wrong" with the song. The rhythms in the percussion are good, and there aren't any real odd notes that hit me as out of place. But there is definitely room for improvement on this bad boy.
Keep in mind I really dislike trance and dance music. So sometimes I can be rather critical of these types of songs. But that being said, I tried to be pretty objective with this review. :-)
4/5 and 8/10 overall. Not bad bud, not bad at all.

I know your not a fan but you have musical expierence which is what im after... I could do better with the piano and add better dynamics to make it more life like... but most of my songs i leave it all the same because it is a trance or techno type song.. If i record a piano into a rock song or something.. then I will try to make everything more realistic.. included the hi hats and kicks on the drum set.. but for techno I dont really bother with it... I choose not to add to many instruments to the song cause honestly I hate that when there are so many things going on in a song you cant pick out what to listen to.. also it helps alot with clipping.. the more sounds in a song the louder it is.. period.. I could lower the volumes of all the instruments and add more but then it just sounds wierd cause theres no continued energy through out the whole piece..
I always look forward to your reviews... Unlike others it doesnt say Yeah I liked it.. you give goods and bads which is what im looking for
It was pretty good
i like the part that starts at 1:52, though i think some of the instruments would be nicer with some reverb or delay added to them :P
Please contact me if you would like to use this in a project. We can discuss the details.
