Reviews for "{Serenity}"

Sweet!

I like it. It sounds kind of aquatic to me. It's pretty calming, too. 10/10 :D

Ambient...

Hm. First I noticed that the opening piano wasn't a very good sample. Its sorta muddy in the mids, which can get bad later, especially with the amount of reverb on it. I'd advise using an E-Piano instead, or a Rhodes type of thing.

Next, I noticed that the hats are a bit grating for a song that I'd want to fall asleep to. Try some reverb, and EQ out some of the fuzz.

I like that lower square, but the upper sawtooth kinda gives me a headache. It goes too high, and the progression wasn't catchy enough to merit doing that.

However, I like some of the ideas here, and it does mesh well in the end. Its just too short, and kinda repetitive. I guess we both have the same problems when it comes to producing...

Anyways, it was actually a pretty cool blend by the end. I enjoyed it. 8/10, 5/5

half a year? probably more
i need to look into some soundfonts or something =P
thanks for reviewing!

hehe cool

This is really neat. It's got a very unique sound, the synths you use really create the song. I especially like the ambiance, sounds great. The only problem I have with it really is that it doesn't seem to flow very well, it almost seems choppy in the way it transitions inbetween the 4 measure phrases. You could maybe solve this by having the ambiance fade out after each note instead of just ending, but maybe its just my tastes. I also really like the way the song comes down at the end. Well done all around, 5/5

dj-skeetskeet-69 responds:

yeah i see what you mean about the transitions. i usually do trance so the arrangement is pretty awkward here. thanks for the review!

Vocals?

That would be cool, ambient vocals.
