Good sound

Space travel? That's the main image I get... either that or a game of WipeOut, as that's the sort of fast paced game that this needs to be a part of. It practically yearns to be there.

The build up of this track is short and very effective, with the way that the extra instruments get added almost one after the other. I liked the way that you broke that chain by effectively crashing the tune after the second cycle.

As an improvement, I'd consider knocking off the beat for a cycle and having the synth play around for a little, before getting reigned back in by the beat.

untz baby

some great ideas in here, with some somewhat overused blase sounds- but you still did do an great job for making you first full track and I wouldn't expect anything more at this stage.

I like the melodical ideas you start with, and then put those same melodies on a rave lead (I was just making a track yesteday with a similar 3xosc sound). bass is nice and is distinguishable from the kick. I thought 0:30 was too soon for you to break into the interlude section, as this is usual when the intros end! and nothing had really built up for a break section to be needed yet. Some nice big synthstrings and the muffled trance sounds work together well. The track takes a nice lift at 1:10, some full grand harmonization, and decent job with utilizing your themes. Possibly a different, bigger synth could be used to replace the rave lead in the end (or even a nice phaser effect would work well on it) , but its all gravy.

drums could use some mixing. Give the kick a bit more oomph by EQing some more bass. also, it distorts in some places so put some compression on the drums. Also, i would tilt your hats more to the left or the right to make your drums more full- and puts some reverb on your snare. and lastly, try to experiment more with dynamics in your next track. as far as the beat, it could use some more changeups, like you do with the snare in the end, and it wouldnt hurt to change up the kick too, by filling some steps in sporadically.

keep doing what you do!

Thanks for a good review! :) Glad you liked the melodical ideas, bass etc... I agree with you that I broke into the interlude section too soon. I realized that afterwards ;) Thanks!

First full song? Great first try.

- Good stuff -
A very good first full song. It was a mix between Trance and Techno with me but they're both equally as good. It tones down pretty well.

- Bad stuff and improvments -
The next step you need to learn with songs is how to loop them properly, it's very hard to master. You need to get the beginning and end sounding slighty the same but not too much otherwise it will ruin the whole effect fo the song. You could pan it out, it normally works. Also the longer the song the eaiser it is to loop because the listner will forget the beginning by that time because they are listening to the other parts.

Thanks. Yes, it's a mix between Trance and Techno, but I put it under "Trance". I have not much experience with mastering the song and looping. Thanks again for helping!

Okay

It has some parts to this which sound very good, the opening and part the way through are pretty nice, but then there are parts in this tune that seem to be a little distorted and doen't really seem to sound too good in my opinion. Although most of it does come together very well and works too, I can't get over the distorted parts.

The ending part to this song is also done in a pretty good way too which is nice, doesn't loop but that's not really a problem. Overall it's pretty decent but it would be better without the distorted parts to it.

3/5

The song is very nice overall, but it needs a bit more work here and there.

I like the intro. It starts off quite slow and gets more and more intense.

The part after the intro sounds as if it is overamplyfied. The effect/the instrument you used there (can't figure out if it is an instrument or an effect there, sorry) doesn't really fit in.

The change overs from the fast parts to the slow parts need a bit more work. Right now they are too abrupt. A slower change over would sound better here.
