(Full name: Journey to the End of the Universe)

This song originated from a five second loop I made like 5 months ago. I never really expected to make entire song out of it, but I was convinced otherwise...

Enjoy, and reviews are appreciated!

"Nice :D"

date: September 12, 2009

I usually don't like trance much at all, but this song is really easy and nice to listen to.

The melody is nice, and never gets boring or repetitive. The beat carries it expertly too.

It kinda reminds me, especcialy the start, of some intro to some series of tutorials on the internet for some reason...Or maybe the news...Either way, it's professional quality music that would well suited for the media in some way.

Can't wait to hear more from you! :D

Wow, thanks!

I kind of understand what you mean about associating it with some type of tutorial, it does kind of give off that feel if you think about it.

Thanks for the review!

"Lovin' it!"

Well, this piece immediately put me in mind of the Futurama episode where they flew to the edge of the universe and looked through a telescope into the parallel universe. I can imagine a space ship flying through the emptiness of space towards the final goal, chasing what looks like an unimaginable goal - the edge of the universe and possibly of space-time itself. I wonder what we will find there...

Still, the music has a great tempo and it carries itself through the beat and doubles up for the melody, which sounds similar to a synthesised harmonica, which I quite like. The counter melody is a real boon, giving a boost to the track, as it starts to become bereft of variation, so it has a shot in the arm as required.

I love the modulation, as the track drops down to a much lower tone and everything seems to become nice and relaxed, ready for the final push, then it builds up again and we're off!

Great stuff.

Yes, yes, indeed...

Synthesized harmonica, I like the sound of that.. xD

Thanks, I love making transitions as epic as possible, It's almost what makes the song, from my point of view.

Thanks for the review!

"Welcome..."

...to the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

Yeah, I really expect the band at that restaurant to play something like this. I mean, it's a great event which you don't experience everyday, right? (unless of course you work there...)
Also, people shouldn't be too unhappy about the end, maybe the things that follow after us are much better. :)

Conculsion: This is a very nice song with a pretty happy atmosphere and some very nice melodies. Good Work!

Ha, the first thing that I thought when I saw the title and heard the very beginning of the song was, wait... this is the end of the universe? It sounds pretty happy for the end of the universe and everything.

Journey to the end of the universe makes much more sense though as it could be this fun amazing adventure that you encounter so many things that you never knew existed in the world. The song shows this very well.

The song itself had a lot of variety and was really fun to listen to. I personally can't find any flaws in it and I think you did a great job. Keep up the good work.

Thanks!

I actually didn't know what to name this song while I was making it.. I kind of analyzed what I had made right before I submitted, and this is what it made me think of. I think it fits pretty well!

Thanks for the review!

"Arps FTW! XD"

date: September 10, 2009

Wow, this song is amazing. Really good job, on it, I enjoyed it a lot.

The melodies are definitely some of the most awesome melodies I've heard before. They sound excellent, especially the one that came at around 0:54. Excellent instrument choice as well, they sound very Video-Game-ish, and the arps sound fantastic. Instruments and melodies match up very well with each other, excellent job. My only complaint over here is that some of the melodies are much too quiet, especially the one at 0:54, and what's supposed to be the background melody is covering up the main melody.

Really great transitions: all of the melodies and instruments were introduced excellently and very professionally. The effects you used here made nice transitions too. The only problem concerning the transitions is that the snare roll at around 2:18 sounded much too glitchy and completely ruined the awesome feel of the song. It's nice to have some snare rolls like that around songs but the way the snares were played sounded really strange. Instead, you could either make a less glitchy-sounding, or remove the snares completely and a reverse cymbal instead.

I really liked the intro, I haven't heard an intro like that before, and it didn't feel like it started too suddenly or anything. The ending was superb as well. Fade endings usually sound awful and boring, but this one seemed to represent the fact that the universe is infinite, or that we haven't found an end to it yet, and what's more, it was quite well done too, and the long sweep effect at the end fit with the fade very well too.

I liked the drums over here as well. They had some really good transitions (apart from that snare roll, yuck :P), and although are simple, they fit really well with the song. Really good samples over, here, especially that kick; it sounds great.

In conclusion, this song is really awesome, with only the two problems that the melody is too quiet and the snare roll was too glitchy. Other than that, everything else was perfect. Keep up the amazing work ^^.

Thanks!

You've got a good ear, that snare roll is actually one long sample that I cut to fit that transition. I didn't really do anything to it, which probably why it seems to stand out. I'll try to tweak it a little to sound better, or just get rid of it like you said.

Lol, I actually replaced the kick at the last second. I'm glad I did, it really does make the whole thing sound a lot better.

Thanks for the review!
