Reviews for DJ Deimos-Illusion

Builds man, builds

Okay, so at :30 to :50, it was great. The bass had really kicked in, and around 1:04, that was great too.

But then, it didn't build past that. I mean, a couple of short breaks at 1:36 and at 2:24 you have kickass snares (can't think of the appropriate term at the moment, that's the closest I can think of) rocket in-

And then it's back to the same line that we heard right at the beginning. The energy stays the exact same. You could have punched up the tempo or the volume easily, but it stays flat. Where's the anger? The kickass bass that starts at :30?

Don't get me wrong, it has the makings of an epic song, but it really isn't more than a 6/10 for epicness. Seriously, why wasn't there a massive punch right at 2:43? Without lower lows and higher highs, the strongest moments in your music don't look any different than the weakest.

Trance is a good genre for looking at builds as it encourages builds. Paradoxial March By Gravey might also be a piece worth looking at- he has epic covered.

KroweMusic responds:

I see what you are talking about. But then again, this is my first song in this genre, so I'm not too worried. Thanks for the advise!

You Sir Know Your Epicness!

I can imagine this track in the Metroid Prime series! It'll fit nicely in a boss fight or some abandoned factory poorly lit filled with the hellish creatures of unknown worlds.

KroweMusic responds:

The Metroid series music has actually given me some song ideas. Kinda funny how you mentioned that xD

Hmm its ok for elevator music or something to listen to if your board, id rate this a 6 outa 10 as it kinda reminds me of some oldskool stuff before they got good with some melody, I was expecting it to build up and wham get into some beast tune but it was the same thing all through, would make a nice start to a desect tune.Its a good effort though but defo a bit flat. try some high points in it next time with some different beats as you build it up coz it all sounded the same to me. keep trying youl get there eventualy but your on the right track (;
