This is something I started yesterday.

I haven't really spend that much time on it, which is why it is so short. But I think it works great as a loop now. I am already making a longer version of it though.

I am not sure which genre the song is :B So I just chose video game for now. What do you suggest?

I think it has got a real "game" feel to it. What do you think about it? :)

If I make it to round 2 of the Audio Deathmatch, this submission will be my submission for the second round.

NGADM 2009 Group 2 Round 2

Brilliant work! I love the way that it immiedetely starts off with a fast rythm and a brilliant atmosphere. Great work on the synth melodies. They just blended together perfectly and never stopped the flow of the music. I also loved the way taht you put a decent level of depth to the whole piece. The drums were however the dominant masterpiece in this. Simply brilliant, fast-paced and providing a fantastic sense of rythm and adrenaline to the whole thing. The only particular thing was that it didnt loop quite as well and also, it could've used some more bass to give the whole thing more of a realistic feel. Great job overall.

SCORE : 9.5/10

P.S. This is your judging review from the NGADM 2009 Group 2 Round 2 and i posted it here cos its cool to have more reviews.

Not bad for a loop

This isn't a bad loop. In my opinion, though, the drums could definitely use some work; they're not loud enough, and they're way too punchy. This can be fixed by taking the Maximus/Limiter off of the drums, and putting a compressor on the whole track. Also, try gating your drums, such that the snare stands out from the kick. Moreover, the drums could seriously use some variation; it sounds like the same drum beat mixed with a few different fills here and there. The melody is cool, maybe just slightly cliche, but still really cool. The thing that drags the melody down is the fact that it's made using Sytrus (and I only know this cuz I'm a bigtime FL junky; I know that you even used the preset piano at points). Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Sytrus, and it's probably one of the best synth VSTs you can get, but you should seriously try playing around with the presets till you get a sound that nobody can recognize. Just some tips on taking this track to the next level. Not bad though, not bad at all. Good luck getting it to have an edge to it! =)

Thank you for your review!!
That was exactly the kind of help I was looking for :D
I will definitely use your advices to make the song go to the next level !
BTW, I just realized that I actually already have removed the limiter, and added a Multiband Compressor ! :s

Well...

I like it very much :D

Cool melodie, perfect timing, could use some less effects though to make it more powerfull at some parts..
It's really pumping, indeed game-like music.. I just like it ;D

Manhart responds:

I am glad you liked my song!
You might be right in the "could use some less effects..."
I might change that later on :)
