Thanks, man! I really appreciate the input ^ ^

this, has a really nice, atmospheric ambient feel

I was about to go to bed, but I saw this track and had to review it :)

the intro is pretty simplistic, but works itself into a good mix, slowly, and very smoothly. it has a relaxing feel to yet, while sustaining a serious demeanor. the rhythm stayed pretty much the same the entire track, but it never got old. I love the space sounding synths. love the FX you use here, nice panning. the basic percussion really complements the track nicely, not taking away the tracks atmospheric, slow feel. nice bass kicks and shaker beat. I'm not too sure if I liked the middle section of the song, it was a bit too happy for my tastes in comparison with the rest of the song. but after it's all done, it fits the track really well. in fact, after I listened to this track twice, everything flows perfectly. I could imagine playing some weird space adventure game, where I'm searching for a treasure in darkness, with this as the BGM.

nice job at keeping the song simple, but at the same time mixing everything up and not making the track sound tedious. you get my five man.

CyrusOfNaias responds:

Yet another friendly review! Thank you so much for your input. I do agree that I think I was a little too hasty with the middle phrases, though for some wird reason I liked it more than the rest of the song!

I feel obligated to go visit your Audio as well. Thanks again!

weh

doesn't sound a lot ambient-y to me except for the start- it's all very very reverbed. The saw bass with a little delay that goes forever with 3 notes, You could've changed it up, or given it some melody- you change a bit of it later on tho

Interesting 'alien' fx and winds, they surely make the ambient atmosphere- but not much

Then there's a new sawtoothe/PWM lead, it's okay but you shoulda used another kind of lead for the same melody, the sawyness gets a bit tiring after a while

percussion, techno thumps and some higher percussion like hats and shakerz, works out except for the thumps- needs more snare and reverbed kick

Really, quite an interesting piece. Did you put a reverb on the master track or something? That would be friggin lazy, but work out excellent

It's a bit more minimal techno (the thumps turned one part extremely ghey) mixed with ambience- But that's for sure a good thing too! :D

CyrusOfNaias responds:

Wow, just to start a great review, too.

I didn't put reverb on the whole track, but I used automations like crazy(hence the alien effects). This really is only the fourth time I've really used slicing and automations, but then again I've realized they're necessities!

I believe the lead synth needed just a tad more on the volume and filter, but I didn't really think of what you suggested. I'll keep that in mind.

Like I said, thanks for the review and trust me, I'm not even close to being done with this fascinating program. Catch ya later!
