"Quite good..."

not to bad not too good either. I would say average in a good way of course. As Karco wrote before, the melody is the main let down here. It gets a bit repetitive after a while.

To much going on in the track itself. Also, work on your samples or get some better ones. They could use some eq for example. To me they sound very blank at some points. Other than that it's quite good. ;)

Well, not something you actually could send to a record label but it's a good start. It was a solid track and it's something you can build on for your future projects.

Anyways, keep it up!

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE555! You voted 4 for Clear sight, lowering its score from 4.20 to 4.17.

"Decent - could have used a bit more effort."

Your introduction is good, and while it's not quite the best you could still bring it into a great song. Unfortunately, you don't. Gah.

Your melody definitely needs work... it sounds like you were just randomly clicking until you had something that sounded good. In my opinion, a good melody needs to "make sense," and if possible be catchy and something someone would hum.

Harmonies... you could definitely use a few more. They'd add a lot to the song. Not much to say about the ones you have, unfortunately.

Your percussion wasn't very well-done... kick-clap-kick-clap-kick-clap gets boring after a while, even if this is a dance song. Change things up, play with your rhythms and see if you get anything even dancier or catchier than what you have. Add a few drums, maybe. Also, your kick is a bit weak.

Your synth choice isn't quite phenomenal - it's decent, I'll give you that, but you could definitely have put a bit more effort into it. For your drums: Your kick, again, was weak and I'm sure there are better ones out there for the intended purpose of this song. It feels like I've heard that clap 101 times before... which basically means you need to go a bit more original with it.

There's a bit of a positive attitude in this song. It doesn't quite show as much as it could, and you definitely could have built on it more than you did. Keep trying.

It's a decent song overall. I can see good things coming out of you someday. So keep submitting. Go ahead and PM me if you want me to review a song of yours that you've submitted.

"A 5/5 I see you got"

Did you vote for yourself? :) Anyway...it looks like you just started making music not long ago unless you posted old songs on a different site? Still I'm glad that you added a song to the dance section. We lack dance songs compared to trance, techno, videogame, etc. This has that airy feel to it which I actually like. A good song to listen to but not really dancy. Still, you used interesting synths and loops so that is creative. Something new on NG for sure. Okay so 8/10 on review and a 5/5 voting. I always hated lowering ppl's score :)
