Very smooth
I really like the feel. It's a very nice ambient feel...in a way, it's calming.
It's strange, it's very repetetive in some areas, but it doesn't bother me. It really works out. I like it.
Some of the sounds were very odd to hear, but they also seemed to fit. Very nice work.
Thanks for taking the time to reviw my track mate. Yea it is repetitve, i know what you mean, it's just an exercise in atmosphere tbh, anyways i'm glad you enjoyed it and thanks again.

"...Pitbulljones going William Orbit."
Great ambient. That's as far as it goes really... this track has a really subtle melody... I'm sorry, but I can't really find a melody for this one. All I have to say that I'm glad to hear something new and unique to your line of Pitbulljones Genre (TM) tracks... I swear, have you listened to William Orbit's album, Pieces in a Modern Style? There are striking resemblances in the track that make me regret purchasing his album instead of downloading this track :P. So conclusively, this track is essentially Pitbulljones going William Orbit.
Great work!
G9
Haha thanks for the review G9. I don't think there's much of a melody, there's the lil string that comes in n out of the mix and th bleeps at the end and thats it melody wise. Im glad your glad that ive expanded abit, think this might be a natural progression for a few songs now then i'll go back to guitar work. i have to say ive neverlistened to Orbit's work except some of the madonna tracks, just never got round to it, but if you reckon thats what its like this track then all i can say is thankyou.
Again thanks for the review. and undoubtedly this'll feature on a podcast of your's.

Good, mate.
All good, all good. Nice ambience and good choice to not use drums, that would've taken away a lot of the subtlety.
Great instrumentation again, mastering is flawless as far as I can tell.
Only thing is, it doesn't feel as "fresh" as some of your other tunes to me. Might be because I've heard a lot of your stuff, but I don't consider you an artist I'd get bored with
What I think you should do is experiment a little, mainly dynamically. You are developed far enough in your style to pull off some surprises without ruining your overall sound.
One tiny example is that the melody thingy descends the same way as the pads - you can add excitement just by choosing inversions for the chords so basically it's harder to tell what's happening.
As a background for a movie, or an interlude on a CD, this is fine, but as a song there's still some terrain to win on this one.
Btw, I'm really stuck getting a mix right on a little punky choon in Cubase and I hope you'll be able to help me. Hope you are on MSN later tonite.

Hey 'tang wassup.thanks for the review mate. yea i agree with you on the drums mate, i was gonna put some in but i left em out as they just didnt sit right. must bethe first time ive evcer got a positve comment on mastering, thanks mate.
Hmmm not as fresh a track, to some extent i agree with you, other ways i don't. I think your right in that i need to play with the dynamics of tracks, the one thingi don't have is knowledge of music and neither the initiative to do so. I just have an ear lol i don't even know what inversions are mate seriously.
Yea it'd score a film or something pretty well, i may come bck to this or i cud send you the project file if you have the appropiate vsti's and you could have a play at it and improve it.
yea sporry about that the other day, i was out and i had about have dozen messages from you needing help. sorry again.
Thanks for your reveiw and honest comments, its what i love about you.

Relaxing..
A very good track, very relaxing. For some reason it reminds me of the SNES video game Secret of Mana, wich happens to be one of my favorite video games, making me like this song even more. Keep up the good work jones. =)
Drums?!?!
Well, this is a true ambient piece... but in the beginning of the song I was waiting for some awesome drums to come in!
Then I was like... wait... maybe not all ambient pieces on NG have dnb elements to them like Kirizzle's (who I had just listened too).
Anyhow, I find it hard to rate ambient pieces because they put me to sleep usually so please don't take any offense to my rating.
Besides that fact, the only bad thing about the song was the SQ. It was very buzzy (not purposely I think) or scratchy at some parts.
