i love this and your orchestral style and i don't care which route you take just make sure you are making songs you like if you like orchestral over normal dubstep continue making orchestral if you like normal dubstep over orchestral then make more of normal dubstep don't let your community make you go one way that you don't like there are a few artists that i have left behind because i let them continue making music that they like instead of complaining so they don't feel pressured to change so they enjoy making it. So i tell you after seeing some of these people saying that they are glad you are back to your "old style" doesn't mean you have to continue making music leaning towards your "old Style", but anyways i loved the song but i'll be brutally honest it had points where it was severely lacking and it only had energy where the song hit hardest. that's my opinion on this.
Reviews for "Xtrullor - Paradigm Shift"
I'm trying to find the happy median over time. I think you have sensed the sort of pressure I've felt for some time, I should start being more selfish about this. My work, such as this track, has been kind of uninspired for a while.
Thanks for the comment!
Don't really like the choice of instruments. Overall, great song though!
I hate to say it but you need to do something new, X.
I feel about this like I felt about Authority-- it just wasn't the innovation from you that I'm used to.
I love your music and I certainly think you could continue on this path-- in my opinion, you're already past greats like Au5 and Fractal. But I think seeing something from you that didn't involve a shitload of phasers and frequency shifters would be cool. To see you take a stab at doing something like Alon Mor would be particularly incredible, I think.
I like the song, but I feel as if you weren't as creative with this one. Compared to some of your other songs, this one doesn't stand out. Despite that, it's still a pretty good song and I hope you will make more songs in the future.
I must say this track is a little on the lesser side of your discography.
On an objective level, this track is great. Flow, mixing, structure, sound, it's all perfect. You've truly mastered your sound. The only issue is the non-drop parts.
This section is all personal analysis of the track. I see what you were going for here. I've seen all the people saying your orchestral-based tracks aren't as good. I've seen all the comments saying you should return back to the sheol-supernova days. The reason I bring this up is it seemed you were trying to capture that light once more. The problem is you've evolved past that stage in producing and moved on to a new feel for music. I understand what you were doing, and I respect it, but it just seems pointless to try to return. Granted, you haven't totally devoled back in this piece, but I can feel what you were attempting. I believe you should move forward always. Never try to reach back because others want you to. The drops here feel like ego death, due to their intensity and rock-ish patterns. I enjoy the track, but I think you shouldn't try to pander to the people holding you back is all!
Sorry for the rant, good track, but don't try to please others without consideration you own musical journey!
