Very nicely done!
Your track is the only one I found on the front page worth downloading today. Great job. I really like how you were able to put multiple elements together without making it sound ridiculously overdone, and the flow was good. =]
Reviews for "Side Effect - Alien Opera"
great music
I gave nine instead because of the comments, I read em while the song loaded and expected it to suck which is really not the case. you need to have confidence in your work and any artist should let the work speak for itself. good job, this one is going in my favorites it gives energy without being too busy
nice, but not top notch
i love it except that damn rolling click throughout the whole freaking first half of the song! its just a tad off beat, thats probably the point but it sets my teeth on edge. great job anyway

think you're talking about the bassline, its what usually turns people off on psy. it's just something in the genre.. i just think it's hypnotizing. whatev thanks for the review
I Love it!!!
I honestly have no criticism for this track. But perhaps that is because I usually don't listen to this type of music.
I love the powerful drums, they really shake you. The transitions between sections are well made and work very well. And that guitar sample! Oh man when I first heard it come in, so powerfully, at 0:40 I hit the download button straight away. I could hear the epicness that was about to come.
To me, the mastering on this track is superb! I am hopeless at it so I'm probably not the best person to ask... But to me, this sounds extremely professionally produced. All the sounds are clear, nothing is really pushed into the background and it doesn't sound squashed at all; very natural.
Although, as you said, the bass is very monotone, and there really only is 3 main repetitive chords, I still found this to extremely catchy. I won't be surprised if I start humming this in the shower.
I don't know where the voice samples are from, but they suit the track perfectly. Oh and I know what you mean about having to convert music into low quality! I HATE the 8MB limit on NG. *glares*
FANTASTIC job on this mate, please keep making music :) And thanks for reviewing my track as well. Is there anywhere I could get higher quality version of this? I honestly love listening to this.
Voted 5, downloaded, favorited and loved. XD

glad you like it that much manXD
but actually, the guitar wasn't a sample:p it's the result of some crazy screwing-around in subtractor (one of the synths in reason)
the voice samples are from Tron by the way.
and uh yes, somewhere in the near future you can get it in higher quality, i can put it on rapidshare or something for you, i'll pm you about it.
but only if you tell lots of peoples how ace this is^^ no jk
Good stuff man
Nice track. I love the selection of synths and good quality. Really good ambient stuff, I am not a fan of trance but this was really good. Good luck
