Reviews for "Adjeye-3 ~ Sentivicated."

very chill

i absolutely LOVE the buildup! its so chill, and the trance part that kicks in, beautiful. BUT. you should have had more of a beat at 0:58, i think it would have given it a nice touch. im new to music producing so i cant really judge and tell people whats good and whatnot, but other than this its very good!

Adjeye responds:

0:58 is still in the intro, didn't want to have that a kick or something. But thanks!

Great build up...

Im really starting to get an appreciation for this type of music. The way this particular track builds up is really nice. It tends to get a lil bit repetitive though, I'm aware that this the way most trance songs tend to be, but maybe a break down in the middle with some audio clips from an old movie/TV show/or anyt other type of media would add a little bit of flare to this. My favourite part of this track is the piano, I think it really fit with the mood and the rest of the composition. Well done Adjeye-3, and I hope you have a wonderful day.

Adjeye responds:

actually I was sleeping when you gave me the review.. But thanks man :). Yeah I need to work on my hooks, to make it less repetive...

BTW my piano is my speciallity, in a week of 3 I got a keyboard so the piano pieces will actually sound natural then :).

hmm

1 30 the drums are a tish to simple for my taste
1 50 this is a bit long for a workup / intro and its to relaxed to be the main part of the song for my tastes
was exspecting more of a drop at
0:58 as well
2:30 really could use more synths to make the song sound deeper
3:20 is sounding nice paino could use tweeking so it dosent sound comp maid
3:23 this change is vary nice nice and bassey to but the paino dosent sound to great with it id fade it with some synths and stuff .
4:15 that repeated a bit to much and thats a bad place to end the song after a huge long work up ,
fairly good hope that helps you some :D
5/5 8 outta 10

Adjeye responds:

Hmmm thanks for this awsome review!

nice nice :]

Your build up in this song was rather long, but rather notable as well; I really liked how you slowly brought many different layers to the surface over time very classic-trancy. The piano lead that built up to the drop was nice, and DURING the drop i think you had the right idea but I would have changed a few things here.

Things to look at:
- Your build up is good, but too long; not many people are gonna stick around 3 minutes for a drop (if they do it better be god like)
- Dynamically this was a bit confusing, and by the time the drop actually came around it kinda caught me off guard in a bad way :[
- Your drop is in need of some post-composition mastering bro; This part could be sick, but your samples sound a bit mushed, and clippy... give them room to breathe!

Overall great effort, just give it a bit more!

Adjeye responds:

I see wat you mean here, but you need to take in considering that this track is even too short. It is progressive after all.

But you're right, I should have made more drops and improve my mastering skills,
(I am not the best in that:P).

Thanks for the list man :).

Trance/Dance

Is the general vibe its giving off to me, The beat of the drums could be varied a tad to give the song some variation. The melody to me if its what you were going for fits just fine to me no variation is needed but easily could be done with some mini "fill in's" like small drops here and there. The end was little too harsh though for me. And after the harshness was over the ending gives a sort of empty vibe it sort of to me needs some filling in. The whole song to me needs some more atmosphere and frequency fill in to a point of complimenting the main lead and bass. Along with some more umph to the kick (some widening in the stereo field and some EQ boosting of the main kick (35-65Hertz Range)) I would say. Well after a 3rd listen through that's all the criticism I can think of to say to make the song better.
