I am really enjoying the thick and full atmosphere that you have created in this track. The little build up at 2:24 with the vocal snippets is particularly memorable.
Keep up the good work!

DjZeaklous responds:
Thanks.
Unfinished? Finish it! :P
I dunno what I'm hearing at the beginning, but it sounds like a bit of a phaser/flanger resonance effect, and distracts me a bit from the bass.
When the rhythm comes in, I feel the track slows down a couple bpm, it's quite odd, and then when the rhythm goes away, it speeds up a little bit. I think it's the placement of the first bass note that throws off the groove just a bit. It may also just be the type of bass synth you used.
Btw, I feel the bass is quite mono, you should give it more life by keeping it stereo, the stereo effects that a bass gives also gives some more life to a song, just make sure you EQ accordingly.
The synths are quite nice, nice and full, and not overpowering the mix.
When I heard the vocal chops, I was like 'wut? where did this come from?' I'm not saying it wasn't nice, it was lovely, but it seemed random. I wasn't expecting vocals 3 minutes into a song.
The end feels unfinished, which is why my summary states that.
I'm also curious as to why you moved this from trance to house, when this is definitely a trance song. It has no house elements. The bass stays the same throught, and there's pads and nice smooth rhythms.
On that note, you could probably do without all the reverse rhythm parts for transitions, you overused them a bit in this one.
Overall it's fun and cool, but could still use a bit of work, and perhaps be completed, with some nice vocals in there, and not just chops.
4/5
8/10
Keep at it man.
DjZeaklous responds:
I understand and agree about the BPM seem to change, I was wondering how I could fix that. Should I lower the BPM any way? In the beginning it seems like I should, but once it gets into the main part of the song it seems fine.
I moved it from trance, because the first two reviewers (heartless1298 and Chinoman10) said that it was house, not trance. If we get an official person who judges that, they can tell. Also, other like DJIxON have said that this is progressive club house, not your conventional house.
When it comes to the ending, I will probably lengthen it to 5-6 minutes and maybe add more vocals.
Thanks for the review and rating! I appreciate the time you put into this.
Trance like house song...
Well done!!! The vocals are awesome!!!
DjZeaklous responds:
Thank you!
Club House..
Totally a club house song. The chords are very deep and clean. But the fact that it sounds unfinished leaves me wanting more. Reason or FL 8?
5/5 9/10
DjZeaklous responds:
Neither. This was before I had FL, so I probably will lengthen it with FL now.
