Reviews for "Break It Down [SB]"

Hi,

Happy new year to you as well.

Here are my thoughts:

Intro:
Not so concerned with the beginning beat, but the build up is a little too slow...acceptable for trance music, dance not so much. I'm not a fan of the guy yelling ??? before he says "break it down". Other than that, good use of fx sounds.

0:56-1:23
I don't see that typical bass pattern as a bad thing if used in small parts of the song which you do nicely before the next transition.

1:23-1:50
I can see what you were trying to do with the offbeat drums. Good idea to keep things interesting. That lead instrument could use a bit of work. Sounds too happy hardcore young teen music. If your are a young teen then ignore me...but as you listen to more club electronic music you will agree with me.

1:50-2:32
Perhaps this is where I cannot comment on fairly as many like the triplet pattern, but I'm not a huge fan because it is like an excuse to use the exact same pattern as you did in 1:23 part with just triplets added on.

The rest of your song loops which I'm not saying is bad, but not something I need to critique again.
Overall, good song. You mix genre together which is a great move on your part. Best of luck in the future.

Wow. I appreciate the detailed critique. Did not expect that, thank you. I'll definitely take it all into consideration.

(Would have been nice to know the one synth sounded like a happy hardcore synth a year ago when I was trying to dabble in that genre XD)
