Pumpin'

Lets see here. I liked this song, it just had that nice mood to cheer me up after my 3 times a week torture sessions (football practice). Lets look at the scores.

Smoothness: 1/2
Drums: 2/2
Bass: 1/2
Melody: 2/2
Catchiness: 2/2
Mood: 2/2
Effort: 2/2
Loop: 2/2
Listen-ability: 2/2
Instrument use: 1/2
17/20 which figures out to 9/10

Suggestions: I didnt like the instrument use here. The melody instrument was a bit too hard trance-like to me. It sounded kind of annoying, you could have used something smoother. There wasnt enough bass, it didnt stand out enough to be bass. Use a more mellow sample and blast it like any kind of techno would. The melody here was kind of repetitive, but it was too catchy to deduct any points.

What I liked: The fact that this song loops just really makes it easy to listen to. I liked the beat on this, I cant stop bobbing my head to it. The song just has excellent listenability to it, and has a great cheerful mood to it.

Last word: I dont use this comment space to give never ending praise to your awesome music, because theres always room for improvement. Keep working, man!

Thanks a lot my good friend, I really appreciate you took your time to write this great in detail review!

I shall respond to some of the pointers you mention:

"The melody instrument was a bit too hard trance-like to me." Well I think everyone has different tastes in music and different opinions on how it should be made, I actually intended to give that powerful feeling to the lead, but well, some ppl will like it and some ppl wont :)

"There wasnt enough bass" Im not sure man, I didnt wanted the bass to overwhelm everything... Honestly, from my point of view, I think the bass volume is just fine as it is, not too pumpy, but not too smooth.

"The melody here was kind of repetitive" Well, yeah, I have to admit it is, kinda repetitive, but the good thing about well thought of melodies, is that they can be repeated a lot without getting the listener tired of them ( ;

Thanks again for the awesome review, have a nice week!

very energetic. speedy. :3

nice beat lines. uplifting and it keeps the melody in check. as a loop the beginning and ending should be in sync. it wasn't exactly in sync, but it's a good loop anyway.

JohnnyFrizz responds:

Well, sometimes it takes a couple of milliseconds to the player to react, try looping it again and it should sound right ( ;

Well damn, a #1 audio submission that doesn't feel entirely undeserved. It hooks you, keeps you on and makes your legs jump. Might actually have too much to be a video game song, it would distract with its awesomeness and make you lose concentration. ;)

9/10 because it's not among the best things I've ever heard, but not too far off.
