So, since my song didn't make it onto the Electronic EP #2, i am posting the full version here, as well as other places. I'm going to attempt to get my music around more now, I'm going to join a few other sites and things like that.

This is the song that i worked on for so long...
This is the song that i worked the hardest on.
This is the song that took the most effort...
This is The Rise.

I know this will be zero bombed, I'm not stupid. That's how newgrounds rolls; if it ain't mainstream, it ain't good. Fine with me. That doesn't matter, because I'm still uploading it.

Congrats to those selected for the EP.

"I cant knock it"

This is classic dude. Maybe not as appealing to most because of it, but I totally dig this, as a whole, its a great piece. Trance is meant to be repetitive, layered melody and delay, built up and broken down in however many creative and emotionally powerful ways you can muster. You pulled that shit off great, so I say great job, its a classic rave tune.

"lol, I saw the title."

I made a song like a year and a half ago called "the rise." so when I saw yours I thought I might give it a listen.

not bad. you definitely have a firm grip on the fundamentals of making a song.

Some things you may want to work on:

*clipping: I could hear a bit of it in the beginning, but it wasn't terrible. might need to just add a limiter on your song.

* repetitiveness: again, not too shabby. I've heard far worse, believe me. ;)

* melody: this was the thing that held you most back. Although the song has great flow to it, and your eqing was pretty decent, the melody itself just wasn't emotionally pulling enough. Try to experiment with different notes until you get a decent progression going.

Overall, nice work! I can see that you put a lot of effort into this, and such is the music creation process. Just work on the things I listed, you will be sure to improve.

4/5 7/10

"Very Cool..."

by: Gravey

Quick thing, it sounds like it is clipping in the intro. Just might want to take a look at that real quick.

As for the song as a whole, it sounds really good. You did a nice job using filters to make the different synths stay fresh throughout the song. It also created this airy and almost mystical atmosphere.

I do like the percussion, as simple as they are in this song. You did a good job just making straightforward rhythms sound great. And the random cymbal hits I liked as well, like at 3:39. Typically cymbal hits like that just are obnoxious, but yours actually fit the song well.

Also, I don't like the lead synth during this section, roughly from 3:00-5:00. I just don't feel like it fits the atmosphere of the song. It's a bit too hardcore trancey for this light tune. Also, I think it goes on too long. Like it might have sounded a little better if it didn't last so long. But that is only my opinion, so take it or leave it as you will.

I really enjoyed this bud. Very nice song you have here. And that is saying something, because I typically hate trance. ;-)

5/5 and 9/10 overall.
