Reviews for "Dj Otherworld - Cursed Pyramid"

Hey.

Great song, I love the bass work. The drums are incredible, close to the pros, actually it reminds me of Spor's music in a way. Maybe more of Noisia... or maybe Apex. Dunno lol, you have a mixture of styles, and its created your own style.

Great work.

Imma do a review as the song progresses from the beginning...
here i go..
-------------------------------------
-------------

- Love the intro, The bass progression is amazing.
- I'm liking how each time the higher bass frequency comes in you add a little bit more the the melody.
- This song has an Arabian desert kind of feel, but i can see being trapped inside a pyramid.
- At 0:21 You had a very nice drop into the beat, sounded perfect.
- At 1:04, When the drums stopped and the violin came in, it really added a nice touch. It made me think of the guy in the pyramid coming to a kind of "cross roads" as you might call it, and he stops to try and decide which way to go.
- Great bass distortion by the way.
- Another good drop into the beat at 1:25.
- Nice bass diversity also. Diversity in DnB songs is something that a lot of them lack, and you added a nice touch, it doesn't sound to repetitive or anything.
- At 2:08, I would have advised maybe putting a transition so the beat doesn't sound like it just suddenly stops.
- I like how the song fades out from 2:08 - 2:29. Though I think you should make it longer, I was really getting into it XD.
- So, the only advise i could give you would be that if you do decide to extend the song, make some more variations in the beat, maybe a long transition where the whole song just gets switched up, then goes into a whole new verse, and on back into the original verse. Then comes the conclusion, which i think you should draw out longer.

Anyways, just some constructive critisizm :P.
Great tune.

P.S: I was curious, I use Fl Studio 7, and maybe if you would be so kind as to send me an example of how you've assembled the beat? I would really appreciate it. I've always been curious how to create a DnB beat, i can always write great melodies and bass, i just cant figure out how to make the drums sound DnB like.

thx bro. Great song once again.

Thx for a very extensive review. when i hear the "crossroadspoint" i imagine the hero jumping over a pit or something in slowmotion and arrows shoting out at him from the wall.
If you want tips for making a good dnb beat i would recomend slicing out a beat from an allready existing song, slow it down ALOT, listen to how it sounds and try to make a simillar beat in your music making program. Listen to every kick, every snare and so on. When you have grasped the concept you make your own beat variations :) thats how i learnt it anyways.

hope i helped you out bro ;)

Ow, THATS awesome.

That beat is just perfectly rocking out everything.
It is so cool with Fade in - Put on some really cool
beats with a nice synth - Fade out. :P That explains
it all, right? Great job! You diserve a 5!
