Elph responds:

Thanks man :)

alright... here it is :)

Basically what kazm0 said isnt all true.. and mostly based on opinion.. the lead at 7 seconds is NOT annoying and its just a matter of taste.. i personally like it..

the song is however a tad overcompressed.. when mastering and compressing many ppl tend to overcompress thus lowering the high points and low points of the song structure.

If ur gonna master with FL use the Maximus or w/e its called but dont over compress with that either.. stay away from the soundgoodizer (its just a simplified preset of the Maximus plugin that compresses too much when used improperly).

a tip when mastering is.. before mastering.... make sure all your master volume in the mixer never reaches 0db. you need a good mix to make a good mastered version.. so save all mastering for the end.. worry about getting your mix to sound as good as possible without any mastering.

getting back on track lets talk about the structure a bit... i think when the buildup occurs you should have a nice powerful bass come in to bring life to the song. its disappoints me when someone makes a decent buildup... that doesnt build up into anything :D

I hope you understand what I wrote its 6:55 am and i still havent slept yet.. don't ask why i'm trying to figure that one out myself ;)

What Twist?

I don't know about you, but I found everything too loud, there's no variation in volume, usually caused by over-compression.

I'm going to guess you have a Fruity Limiter in your master channel. I'd recommend taking that out of there. Just because Fruity Loops has that in the master channel Default, doesn't mean it's a good thing.

The lead that started fading in at 7 seconds in is quite annoying, and also needs EQing, there's too many lows in the lead conflicting with the other lead and pad.

All your sounds are conflicting, but that's partially thanks to the over-compression of the final mix.

At 0:55, I was expecting a bass of sorts to fill in the sound, but nothing came in. I'm slightly disappointed.

1:22 is really annoying, it's quite repetitive, and although the pitch down is cool, it's still annoying.

I'm not quite sure what you meant by a 'DnB twist at the end', since there isn't any DnB in this song, but there is indeed a twist. The fact that the end of the song is non-related to the rest of the song.

I can't say I enjoyed this, because of the poor mastering, and annoying high lead.

This needs a fair bit of work in the EQ region, as well as mastering, and structure. the first minute is quite good, you just need to work on builds and outros.

4/5
7/10

Keep at it!

Elph responds:

Ugh, thanks for the honest review. I have been very bad at mastering forever. And i guess itll just take a lot of practice to get good at it.

Anyway, thanks for being honest :/
