HOLY FUCK DUDE
I MANAGED TO GET IT PERFECTLY SYNCED UP ON THE FIRST TRY AND IT WAS JUST FUCKING RIDICULOUS HOW YOU SCORED THAT. ABSOLUTE PERFECTION DUDE YOU NEED A MEDAL FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE I KNOW THIS SAYS TEN STARS BUT I GIVE YOU 11. THAT WAS JUST TO DIRTY
Haha thank you! =) Although I'm trying to 1-up myself in the dirty category right now; in my opinion, it's still a bit amateurish, but it's getting there.
Glad you synced it with the video man! Your review should remind EVERYONE to do that now! =D
Amazing intro
I'm a huge fan of intro's that tell a story and build up toward a point that you're really sitting at the tip of your chair or with your hands in the air for at least half a minute. When your drop came I was slightly expecting 'more' , mostly because I heard the bass in 'Reflections' already. A pauze of some kind may be in place for the drop to have more impact.
Masteringwise it is way better, but I'm gonna review this again when my laptop is back from the repair shop and I can listen on a decent setup.
I liked the fast paced wobbles alot , they reminded me somewhat of Bar 9's typical basslines, but still different. But with such wobble speeds your basslines often come too distinct from your drums, which I'm kinda hearing here. Your drums need some EQ'ing so they don't get drowned aswell, or that might just be my sucky sound system right now :)
All again an extremely nice tune, I'll be downloading this and using in my next set , it mixes perfectly with my own latest tune, Which is drumstep to dubstep and was uploaded a week before yours, so I beat you to that :p Feel free to listen to it and give me an opinion, I'd love one :)
Thanks for the genuine review Reignee! I feel you on that pause before the drop, but remember that this was made for a music video, and I had to be very strict with the way in which it was created. Unfortunately, this means that, for some, the drop's anticipation needed to be sacrificed a little (although in my opinion, it still works out pretty damn well; the choir builds you up, and then the drums lead you right into the bass...works better than many of the drops that I've been hearing lately!).
Thanks for noticing the mastering job too! Working on the mastering from the ground up helps, doesn't it? I think you might be right about the drums getting drowned out a little, although this isn't as bad as you might think; the snare and kick, as well as many of the background percussive effects, are still very much intact. In this case, the EQing is fine; I think it might be the drum compression that I used, or perhaps the overall master compression...like I said, this one used some different compression, so this could account for some "incongruency in the sound." I'm gonna be looking at this track yet again soon, as I'm gonna try and edit it slightly, and then I will take a better look at the compression.
I'm also happy to hear that you'll be using this in your next set! =D Awesome stuff man, thanks a bunch!
Bahahaha! You only THINK you beat me! ;) I uploaded this one at the end of August, but then removed it. So this is a RE-upload, in a sense...I'd be more than happy to give your tune a listen...and I'll drop you a nice review! =)
Thanks again man, for everything! =)

DRUMSTEP
Personally, I fucking love Drumstep (Halftime DnB), and am glad to see its worked its way to NewGrounds. And it's a badass song. It has all of the good characteristics of both genres, including the slop and grime of Dubstep and the high-energy high-emotion feel of DnB.
Glad to find another fan of drumstep here on NG! =D Yeah, I almost feel like I should clarify it as "halftime DnB," but it has enough elements from dubstep to label it so. Thanks for the review man, glad you liked it!
Intense
Great job man, a lot heavier than my remix. Especially like when the dubstep bass comes in, really good atmosphere to it too.
Thanks for the review man! =) I'll be sure to come by and drop you a review soon!
Rightyho.
I liked the chill downbeat section at the start. Made me think oh shit whats gonna happen next..... Kept me on my toes. Then at 46secs, i think i cried a little. Wont lie that drumline..... argh i want it so bad for traktor! haha. Yeah well, i was loving it, and then you put in that harmonic choral bit, and i was happy. I dont hear that too often. Was even happier to hear your format filter going on in there. Was pretty godly. Your wubs were hearty, and overall, i was pleased.
YEAH. WUB ON.
Hahaha thanks for the epic review my friend! =D Glad you liked this one! Just remember, the faster beat makes it "drumstep"...although I'm beginning to think this is a false genre lol. But still, thanks for the review! =D
