Well, i've worked on this song for 2 weeks, about a total of 20 hrs. I basically made the song, changed it, changed it again, then a third time before it reached this point.

Inspiration:
Well, mostly it was my girlfriend Fallon, she inspires a lot of my music, along with my love for the ocean coast. When i listen to this song i think of a solitary island in the middle of the ocean, I'm sitting on the beach watching the waves splash up against my feet, there is a slight breeze that makes my hair sway in the wind. A beautiful sight.

Maybe you will see the same thing as me, or maybe you will see something different
Sit back, Relax, and enjoy.

Thx for listening! :D

Truely engaging

I'm getting a solid Metroid Prime feel from this one. And I LOVE the music in the Prime series. A little slow for my taste though. I don't mean the tempo is too slow, I actually think it's perfect, but every part of the song goes at the same slow pace.. hard to explain in a review, I think. I like for at least one element to break free of the mold. I'm being super-picky here, though, this is great stuff. This could've been expanded into a long long piece given the elements in place. The melody is slow, but still has a nice solid back for carrying a song 6 maybe 7 minutes. Perhaps an extended mix in the future?

I've found that the best band to draw inspiration from when attempting a longer song is Underworld. They taught me how to maintain a song for a considerable length.

MAKE MORE MUSIC

DjUntold responds:

Thank you very much for the review!!
i see what you mean about the slow pace of the tune, its kind of a background music type of thing, but ya i'm probably gonna go back and look over this song, revise it, maybe write some new stuff so its not too slow.
and i'm thinking its going to be extended, as you've suggested =D

and i will make more music =D!!

Wonderful background music.

Great synth choice, it made for a very relaxing song. I liked the subtle melody that came in at about 1:50. Nothing much else to say, it was a sweet track, and I really enjoyed it. Awesome stuff, keep up the great work :D

DjUntold responds:

Thanks man, i worked very hard on this song, im glad you liked it =D!

Hmm hmm ^^

It reminds me of a very interesting night, where all is calm. And you all of a sudden see rain, a very amazing sight for once not like any other rain. You say you thought of it as the ocean, well I thought different for once XD! It's calming, and free.
10/10 && 5/5 :D

DjUntold responds:

hmm, i can definitely see that, a rain like no other ^^.
thanks jenni, you rock.

Soothing

I loved this song.
The song is very soothing, but not to a point of being dull.
What really set this song apart from others like it, is the beat during the middle.
It adds a great atmosphere to an already intense song.
Wonderfully done.
5/5 10/10 blah blah blah.. :D

DjUntold responds:

:D Well thank you friend, i'm glad you enjoyed the song!
I always love hearing positive reviews, it is very encouraging.
---------------------------------
I'm curious tho, if you have the time send me a message and tell me what you were picturing as you listened, was it similar to what I saw as I was creating it?

Thx again!
