Where's the song's ending?

At first when I listened it I thought that this is one boring song. And it was, but after 2/4 had passed, it became good one and I started liking it. But the good part ended so fast. This comes to the thing that the beats that were "going-on" in the end should have gone a bit more. But it's a good song and you still get 5/5 for this.

Thanks for making it!

woot

Holy shit... I've been completely underestimating you! I wrote you off as one of those usual Trance Producers on NG that makes songs with very unfitting sounds. I mean, I hate myself for thinking that for a lot of people, but you sort of can't blame me.

When I started listening to the song, I was like, "Well, seems like he likes them Progressive Trance" intros just as much as I do"... And usually it's hard for some people to work those beats out (I even have trouble), and as usual I wasn't expecting a very professional beat to follow.

It sucks that the limit is 4,000 or under, because I can tell that the song seemed a little hustled and wasn't hitting it's full potential, but you worked it out with what you were given, which is nearly impossible for me (it's either full song or no song for me), and thats why I congrats you on that.

Once the melody kicked in, seemed a little bit too much of a background melody, and needed somewhat of a lead. And yup, a very unexpected ending. I mean, this song could of extended over 6 min easily. The progression of getting the melody out htere took awhile, and you really should of made a clubtastic beat to go along with your melody (snares, kicks, strings [at least louder ones], etc...)

But all in all, the song is really close to professional.

-.-

Hey man, i don't blame you at all.

Great review, i fully understadn what you mean.

Check out, ' One Wish, ' and ' Your The One, ' they *were* my best. :)

Great reverb effect!

I love the reverb you added to the drums in the beginning. Sounded really nice. Good hihats you used, but maybe turn them up a little? Good job on the intro for the bass. Sort of a TB-303 kind of thing eh? Cool piano and synth. I think your trying to get the melodies from Robert Miles - Children. Well, atlest untill you reach too the break point. This is one of your best tracks by far! Keep it up and don't EVER think about stopping music making!

Pulstate responds:

I didn't actually have Robert Miles in mind while i made this, but thanks for the review!

Heh, first review for you in a while.

I haven't been able to keep up but I've been listening to your stuff, don't worry. I like One Wish a lot. :D

The introduction reminds me of Oxygen, except a bit harder, of course. Woah, what was that weird, scream-like effect? Odd. But okay.

You introduced a bass just now and I feel, instead of jumping in, it could have been filtered in somehow. Would've sounded much better, I think.

Here's the piano, of course... it's nice. Not much to say but there's a bit of a quiet interlude later on. Is this the start of the buildup to the climax? I hope so. Aah, here it is, I think, as there's a ton of tension that's waiting to build. That's the perfect buildup synth, right there. :D Now, do you even know what I'm talking about? XD It repeats itself during the snare roll... you know? It's a LONG snare roll, by the way!! XD

Breathy effects. And now here everything comes in, yeah, it's the big climax! :D I should say though that it doesn't sound so... powerful enough. It's good, but after that snare roll that lead should have become more... out there. Louder, more aggressive. Do you know what I mean? It would have been a much better climax, I think, had you changed it to fit. In my opinion, buildup synths don't quite fit too well in climaxes... so change it up a bit. :P

Don't have much else to say, Pulstate, great work on this song! Here's my 5. :) Looking forward to more...

Pulstate responds:

Thanks mate. :)
