I had so many production problems (most user error :)) First, when I went to make a unique clip to delete some notes I accidentally forgot to make it unique which meant I lost the MIDI for the lead. Fortunately I had already bounced it to audio but still. Second, when I converted the file to WAV so I could master it, I accidentally saved the WAV with the same name as the project file, deleting it. I had to fix some stuff in it still but, I cant now, so, sorry if it doesn't quite sound up-to-par. Lastly the stupid pitch nob in the FL sampler wont work so I cant pitch up or down anything without changing the tempo. (The other way I know of is in harmor but I dont have harmor, If you know another way tell me please).
Anyway, too song details... Key of Emin, BPM of 150, Genre is future bass. I freakin love future bass

4.5 stars.

Loving the intro, and the progression with some extra SFX to make it sound more full, the sweepy sound at 35 sounds really cool, and that arp right after sounds like some sort of synthetic steel drum ;) The trap-ish snare works really well with the build up riser, and i like the EQing and reverb you added to the clap. the chorus/ drop (i honestly am not sure which is the correct term in future bass) kinda reminds me of Bossfight-Elevatia, with the chords, and that sort of synthetic voice you added worked perfectly with the drums and the side sidechain. the breakdown sounds too much like the intro, and you should add a sweep, or cyblal right after, to make it have more of a flow, if you know what i mean, and at the 2nd steel drum-ish arp, the trap high hat is a bit fast for 150, but it works out twell with the rest of the song. right after the 2nd drop, THAT is a correct breakdown :D 3:12 sounds too fast, even though you are sticking to the main BPM... not sure how you are supposed to fix that :P and is that bass/growl a serum preset? and the end really sums up the rest of the song perfectly.

Good luck with future songs- DJRadiocutter :)

Thanks for the awesome review bro! They chorus/drop part is still called the drop in future bass, it just has a softer feel. Fun fact about this, i actually haf vocals over this, thats why some parts sound kinda similiar, the arp would have been taken out to make room for the vocals. I ended up not having them in because they werent in key. They were Dmin the track was in Emin. I had to take them out. Yeah, i cant really slow down the too fast parts becuase they are in tempo, but i relistened and heard what you meant. The growls were made in serum, but I made them. HP filter, an effector, LFO speed, and stereo width are all being automated.
Thanks again for the review, really appreciate it!
