This is still a WIP but it could probably pass with a little mastering.

I'm going to add a noise section at the end (like on progressive rock albums) once I get back from vacation, but this will do for now.

Shows promise

The track really shows promise, but as it goes on right now, it just feels repetitive and lacking in some departments.

First impression from the intro was pretty good, I liked the sounds you'd used, but the melody that then joined in just sounded very generic and unoriginal.

It's quite clear that it's a WIP. Biggest issue to me is the lack of... sounds. In general, there's mostly the bass, melody, and a really, really lazy and unoriginal drumline going, that might just be the most over-used drumline in the history of drumlines. Try to experiment some more with that.

In general you'll need more variation, and some more layers of sound, be it melodic synths, ambient synths, or general atmospheric sfx to sprite up the track a bit.

Okay! Could use some improvment though :p

The general melodies behind this track are pretty cool, and pretty much right.
There's a good driving bass-line behind this track which is necessary for a good dance song!
You're on the right track, but some things here most definitely need work...

The mastering behind your track is a huge thing, but even more important than that is your drums.
The drum beats in this track seemed pretty lazy, and the intro sounded like a preset sample from some random fl generator.

I suggest trying to stay away from presets... far away...
and maybe look into some mastering/ drum tutorials on youtube!
Tutorials always help, and there's always room for improvement right?

Maybe you can also look into some new drum kits; Take the time to work on your drum beats... people will notice the difference.

Good effort bro!
Keep working at it!

The drums were pretty much... Oh how do you say... Shit compared to what I write acoustically. I'll add toms and cymbals in sparingly to liven it up I guess.

I'm surprised the intro sounds like a preset. I actually used dub siren with a love philter gate - for which no presets were used.

Thanks for the review!

Sounding Wheatly

I have no idea why but I really want to think this is the theme of Wheatly from Portal2 even though the song is brand new and never ever appeared in that game either. Kind of odd right? Really weird technical sounding piece of audio though, still pretty cool though. Maybe it would make for a great space level song which would also be really nice.

The tune kind of has a quirky tone to it that makes you feel rather weird anyways. Also kind of reminds me of the older Sonic the Hedgehog game levels where you were up in space or on the Death Egg a lot so this turned out to be a good nostalgic tune as well.

The synth has a highly spaced out and quirky tone to it that kind of just makes you think of space or a video game that takes place in space anyways. The bass kind of just backs up the main piece and gets you relaxed feeling as you explore the area as well. The drums are simple and fun sounding here too.

The secondary synth sounds I hear from time to time make me think of the turret opera from the end of Portal2.

Overall, really nice and well done tune, cool.

I wanna play portal so bad now...

I saw the turret easter egg though and I see the resemblence between the two.

Thanks for the review!

Alright.

Rocky start, too much of the same. Im a fan of the rhythms and beats, it has a very unique feel because of the synths and instruments you are using. Most of it sounds the same throughout though and it's not anything I can dance to. It's too chill for that, it seems more like something that would play in the background of a light moment. Sometimes it gets a little bit of a horror vibe, almost feels like a haunted disco maybe? Although, thats mainly because of the main synth.
Overall I say good effort and good job.

WizMystery responds:

I put this under dance because I'm clueless about electronic classification. What would you say this is?

I'm planning on adding a synth/envelope in the intro/bridges so it won't be as repetitive at the beginning or thin at the bridges.

Thanks for the review!
