Hey there again!

Due to the points Ceevro and JandreParis mentioned in my "The Time Has Come" track, I started to go through the track a second time and cleared out what wasn't necessary, also improved some sound samples and the piano solo^^

Hope you like it,

Thoughts while listening:
Flow is better. Hi-hat has been cleaned up. MUCH better pacing! Makes the time/beat change at 1:20 fit in better. The "through the wall" effect at 1:40 works well. Piano at 2:10 all by itself...sweet! Build-up at 3:00 is working well with the additional melodic line. Much improved. The piano sticks out brilliantly here!

Thoughts after listening;

Not going to go with the good/bad points thing here...we've done that already. What I will say is that this cleaned up wonderfully! You kept it interesting the whole way through, cleaned-up the sound, improved the piano and really made it stand out, and turned this into a proper epic-sounding track! Normally, I push people to include some vocals, which you could still totally do, but here I don't really think it's necessary, as your piano solo kept things interesting as a lead-line.

And good on ya for doing what so few do: Taking criticism and using it to improve. You did not mess around on this, you simply heard the feedback and fixed the problems. Mad props, ChromaShift!

ChromaShift responds:

Thanks for another review :D glad the track improved in a positive way :D Yeah, I always say on other platforms that they can criticize my tracks, because I can improve that way, but it isn't happening, nobody cares or nobody took the time to write a review. Because of that I'm glad you left a review for me to read, it helped me a lot :D

This is also a thing, if you get some advice, you should try to improve your track, if you don't do that you keep making the same mistakes. I don't want to make the same mistakes again and listened to my track over 4 times, after that I noticed that it's quite boring to have so much repetitions of the same chords or melodies, also that my buildup of the track was quite long and didn't create any tension. So I fixed that, thanks again,
