Pretty cool
Obviously needs work, especially with the vocals (but hey, you're new!), but the music was pretty solid.
Also, it reminded me quite a bit of Animusic, which is a good thing. =D

A song for Summer.
This song is actually pretty durn awesome (lol forgive me). First things first I like the intro because its really open, there are many ways it can go it makes me want to hear the rest of the song. the beat's cool too; its just right. by that I mean its not overpowering, you can hear it if you want to and your not forced to later in the song. the Fx are petty cool as well, theyre really out there and they suit the rest of the song. the vocals are really intersting. Youve crossed the line between auto tune and went full machine, which for me is a little better. the little bits you throw in after the main segment are a nice touch as well because the mix well with the saw bass.
the main melody you have blends really well with the other Fx throughout the song and its mixed very well to boot, it comes and goes once it has been introduced. I also like the way you slowly bring it up as well. the saw bass is fits really well with the over all theme of the song, the Fx in the intro are actually quite intersting because they have this spark like effect which is interesting.
As for the name I gave the review the song really reminds me of the summer the beach specifically. what does this are the pads you have coming in and out of ear shot
All In All Fantastic Work.

durn responds:
You're durn well forgiven. ;) Thanks for taking the time to write such a thorough review, ZixaxiZ. I was playing around with a few new sample and rhythm packs when working on this tune, they definitely helped broaden the sonic spectrum. And aye, it's definitely a summer-suited song, I can't help but long for the warm summer months! Freakin' cold here right now! BRRRR!
Good first attempt
Though the lyrics need a little work ;) I think this is a pretty good attempt at bringing some vocals to your work. Style kind of reminds me at certain times of a Chicane tune, but can't put my finger on it. Good work!
durn responds:
Aye, I can definitely feel the Chicane comparison. Makes me happy to read it too. ;) But damn, a 7 man? :P Fuckin' hell, this ain't no B-rated song! but yeah, I'll have to start singing with more gusto in the future. :D time to start building vocal confidence!
