I'm going to preface this by saying that I love the song but I don't feel like you managed to convey the vibe of the illustration at all. The image you choose emulates a Daguerreotype which if you were not aware was the first publicly available photographic process widely used during the 1840s and 1850s. Honestly, it's a very cool piece of art. My 2011 Alfred University BFA degree and history of photography credit thanks you for putting this illustration in front of me. I also appreciate that you took the time to write some information as to why you felt the image and the music was relative, I've been harping on people to gush more about their creative process. You noted that you "went outside your comfort zone" of "traditional classical" but you might have been best suited to stay inside of that genre for this image. The time period of the Daguerreotype lends itself to romantic era composers like Debussy, Chopin, Mendelssohn, Tchaikovsky, Liszt, Shubert, or Beethoven. You could have written a somber classical nocturne but in the triple tempo of a waltz to reflect the dance element present. The waltz with it's triple count was considered dance music back in the day, don't ask why, everything "dance" is duple now a days. I'd have respected classical a little more than dubstep which lends itself to more colorful contemporary styles of design and illustration. I bet you weren't expecting an art major to be a judge for this contest, so I'll respect what you've written on the submission page and give you some "relevance to artwork" points entirely for that artist's commentary. Thank you for writing that up, it shows awareness. I'm still giving a you low score for relevance because I feel my critique is valid.
The production is great but there's still room in your field to compress forwards a little more for additional volume. Professional dubstep manages to find the limits to how much sound you can stuff into a PA system while still sounding crisp and perfectly mixed. You got a little more room in the mix but you still managed to convey amazing ideas wonderfully. I really do love this song, that intro was inspired. Musique concrète meets contemporary grime. Honestly, keep pumping out inspired music despite my gripes. You have serious talent and vision.
Always upwards DigitalProdigy.

Again Thank you so much for that professional review. An art major judge ouch!!! I didn't know what type of art piece it was or the time it was representing, I guess a little more research about the art work will be much needed going forward.
I am trying to work on the volume of my music, it seems to be on the low side, every time I try to push the volume up a notch it get distorted. That's probably because I am a musician after all and not a mixing engineer, even though I been mixing my own music since forever. Mastering is another art in its self, so as I might think I have the mixing down to a science, mastering is an art i am still tying to learn.
Again thank you so much for taking the time to review everyone's music and enjoy the rest of your day.
