Reviews for "Dreaming of Utopia"

It was fun. It had a good theme. I just wanted to go somewhere. What I mean by that is I wanted to feel like a was experiencing a story told through music. That is how I use music so that is what's behind my review.

You know how you can listen to a really good soundtrack and the composer with insert the main theme throughout the entire soundtrack? It's like adding a wash to a painting to unify the piece.

Your's had the wash no doubt but I'm saying that I wanted to know more about the world that you created and I was waiting to find out more and was teased. That can be a good thing sometimes but in this context - I have not listen to anything else so I may be biased- you have an opportunity to take us on a fantastic journey. (INSERT CORNY REMARK) Let's go on that journey.

I think I know what u meant to say here and u are right but this was more based on mainstream EDM and that is just full of repetition

The synth at the start gives a cheery uprising for the song. The second synth has a heavier guitar effect going for it I hear. Nothing too bad I think.

The bass sounds like it is possibly coming from having the bass sounds turned up on the second synth you're using.

The third synth used later is just beautiful. Reminds me a lot of Illusions of Gaia which was a nice game when it came out.

The drums are pretty smooth. Really liking how the drum kick has been filtered to produce as little excess sound as possible while being as heavy a kick as possible. The hat sounds good. Only thing I can think of needing replacing is the snare. For some reason it just doesn't feel like it fits in this piece. Maybe a heavier hitting snare could be used?

Overall, this is a beautiful track, aside from the snare being used, I think this sounds wonderful.

ForeverBound responds:

Yeah the snare is a bit weak but thanks for the review

This song is awesome! I tell you what a Utopia would be: if your music (and other good artists) played on the radio rather than the popular artists of today (not my taste)
