Wassup man?? Haven't reviewed in a while so hopefully I can still give the same style of critique :D I tried lookin' up the original, but couldn't find it so I'm just reviewing what I hear and not based off the original. Let's get started!!!
1.) I'm enjoyin' the intro to the song, but I don't think you should have the beat then a drop. I think you should just start the intro with the rise up with the chords. I love that little percussion since you have at 0:45. The intro is just so chill and relaxing, I love it!!! Also, that fx at 22 sec. threw me off a little bit cuz it was so loud compared to the actual chords, but the 2nd time it happened, it was in sync. Maybe make it with a longer lasting fx or a reverb clap. Nice job on the intro :)
2.) I like the transition on 1:14. The one thing I suggest is make the delay on the crash set to 4:00 cuz it goes offbeat when it's at 3:00 for the timing. Unless it's the fx itself. If that's the issue, then just get a crash without echo and add the echo yourself so that you can have the delay on time. That bass is really pumpin' it also. I love those glitchy vocals too. Where'd you get those anyways?? Nicely done!
3.) I like that string breakdown, it sounds awesome!!! What vst did you use for those anyways??, cuz im curious :D When the full beat kicked in, I was jammin' out. The only suggestion I'd say is add the bass you had in the 2nd breakdown or like a dirty electro bass or somethin', that'd be awesome!!! But that's only a suggestion, becuz I do understand this is trance, which would probably change the genre too house. Great work on the actual main section of the song.
Overall, this was a nice preview. It's a good transition from your normal style. I will defintely listen and review the full version when it's out :D
