Ding.... dingding ding ding ding

Gorgeous chime work, and I heard a silent undertone of some other kind of wind instrument playing along with, along with some vox and I'm sure maybe some other little easter eggs. Those are masterful little details that give such a basic thing more body and volume without being a show off and you'd have to listen to loudly to get the full benefit.

I do agree, however, with the guy who pointed out the amen mixtures. Even with bass bouncing around, I get the basic idea of that bridge after the first 20 seconds, but it is minutes later until the changeup.

But those elements paired with the violin churning in the background gives it an aphex dnb feel.

I would've left the chimes out of the breakdown in the middle, it seems like the perfect place to put in a mindblowing orchestrated section that melts back into the amen, then chimes.

Triskele responds:

Thank you for the awesomely helpful review :> I owe you a couple, get to that soon D:

i love this

your bassline and tempo are in perfect union with the simple tune throughout the whole song. The chords do get a bit bland after 4minutes. There is a high pitch whine throughout the entire song and thats pretty much what is ruining it for me. Not sure if you heard it, but its rather bothersome to some with sensitive ears.

Song reminds me of nubbin. Great Job! keep up the good work, ill be looking at your other work.

Triskele responds:

I think the high pitch is a remnant of a sustained note from the tune that I cut the chime from. I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed it, I thought I was going crazy >:

Thanks for the review! I agree that maybe I kept this one going for too long, though I still stand by my choice to not change up the chords. I wanted to keep this entrancing and ethereal, and I feel like changing up the progression would have interrupted the flow.

Thanks a lot for the review!

Naaaaaat bad

i liked the use of chimes.. i recenlty have just been jamming with chimes so i completely understand the need to relax melodiclly...

AMEN breaks .. i always love them.. but they need to be chopped up in a fashion that complements the listeners ear.. If amen isnt nuts then its not too entertaining..

Melody and ambience are the stars that have given.. to combine them with amen.. i would suggest something of a more dominant sound but with melow pitch.. thew chimes dont quite do it.. if you convert this beat to dub and make it simpler i think it would complement you melody much more..

Dont get me wrong the drums are sick as fuck but they dont mesh well with the chimes.
Both independantly are sweet and soothing and electrifying .. but the median has been broken on this one.

Very much enjoyed
5'd and fav'ed

Triskele responds:

Thanks for the review <3

I was really working to combine the drums and the chimes, but not to blend them. I really was going for a bit of discord between the two, so I'm glad I succeeded in that. Sorry that it didn't suit your ear though >:

By the way, full on ragga mashup tune is about 50% done atm. Look out for it in a couple of days :3

I'll hit you back

ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz

With confidence probably the longest song in the competition. I thought the intro was a little overdone and too long. I thought the cricket too was overused. Was not expecting the techno at 1:33, but compared to the bell at everything else, I felt that it was too quiet. It's a nice beat, bring it out more !! I got a bit annoyed with the bells though, it got quite redundant and monotonous. 3:18 good addition of the string chords. At about 3:50 you have the same string chord being held by the strings for about 2 minutes, come on that got annoying quick, I've heard of a fermata but that's ridiculous. Nice ending though. 3.5/5 7/10

Triskele responds:

The sustained string chord was purposeful, obviously. It's a pretty common technique in liquid :>

Sorry the slow build was a bit too slow for you, but again, purposeful.

Thanks for the review :>
