I don't want to break it down on you.
I'm sorry to say but ahm...
You just totally stole the melody from DJ Tiesto - Adagio for Strings without giving him any credit or mentioning it. It sounds fine, don't get me wrong, but all the artists ripping melodies nowadays, even in popular mainstream music is giving me a headache.
Don't contribute to the music industry falling apart please, and let your OWN creativity speak!
I didn't steal anything, I based most of this song on a midi from dms epic chord progressions vol 1 and heavily edited it, tbh I don't like DJ tiesto.
edit: I just went and listened to it, damn.
My first melody after the piano's pretty much like his main melody.
After realizing this I went and grabbed and midi cuz I thought there's no way they're the exact notes, and they're not:p
Here's the notes when they're at their closest to being simular:
My melody:
A G# A B A B C B A B C D
His:
A G# A B G# A B C A B C B
It's a lot a like, but different enough that I dont' care to credit him or like being compared to him. He didn't influence me here, not on a conscious level anyway.
Other then that melody though I don't hear much simularities, and I only play that melody once before it gets more complex. Sorry but it's a hard pill to swallow, as it completely surprised me.
Thanks for the review.

So you can edit midi files. Gratz. That aside, I think it was a poor choice in synths, they actually irritated me... but I guess that's just my useless irrelevant opinion.
Sorry for being harsh but I just can't help but feel little to no effort went into this. Checking your page you seem to release tracks quite rapidly, maybe spend more time on one track and make it great. Quality over quantity.
I produce all day everyday, so each track honestly gets about 8-12 hours put into it.
I use midi files sometimes to get over writers block that inevitably comes from writing everyday. The one used for this song is one track about 8 bars long, everything else is me.
I've also rapidly gotten better, I've done this seriously for about a year, I'm not great I know, but I like to think my improvement is note worthy.
Tbh I need to get into college and get a job to make better use of my time.
Thanks for the review, I really like your music, have for a while.
Tiesto?
Sounds an awful lot like Tiësto - Adagio For Strings
That's why I'm giving it a 2/10
I adressed this before, as the melody is similar for a bit, the songs sound quite a bit different in my opinion.
THIS IS TIESTO
SO NOT ORIGINAL, AT LEAST GIVE CREDIT TO TIESTO IF YOUR GOING TO COPY THE BASE RHYTHM OF THE WHOLE SONG!
Adressed this before, plz read earlier reviews.
