Hey thanks! if it wasn't for your advice i might never have finished the song, so I'm twice as glad to hear that you like it ^ ^

Hm well =/

Well, it is a remake alright, but you didnt quite do anything good, and some of the notes you hit were wrong =/

First up was the vocal volume, it just totally drowned in the synth and bass/drum sounds.
Also, the vocals, after sometime, fell out of rythm =/ which just ruined my ENTIRE impression of the song, really, RYTHM is the most important thing in a song, nothing matters more!

You could've used more time on this, and you could've gotten the rythm right, and you could've raised the volume on the acapella =/

in case you do not know how:

To raise the volume on a vocal, you assign the acapella a mixer track, where you can add basicly anything you want, and, raise or lower the volume =]

To make sure its in rythm - Basicly just set the rythm count to none, and then just addjust the wav to match the beat!

I gave you a 2/10 - atleast you tried, and i want you to try again =)

newrounds1 responds:

well i tried :P it was worth it :)

You know what, its actually good =]

Now when i saw the name i though, oh god, dont ruin a classic!

But you managed to impress me in a positive way, i just really enjoyed this remix =) Its like a calm down and even MORE funky than the original, you brought some cool shit to the song, and the presets used were pretty darn good!

I love the construction, the build up was awesome ;-) you managed to keep me interested all the way, and my foot basicly just cant stop taping to this, i swear to god it is IMPOSSIBLE TO RESIST!
It is very good, and even for its lenght, i never ever got bored, and im on the 2nd loop right now (i always listen to the song and THEN write the review =P)

the mastering is great, and really this is an overall good remix, with some interesting rythm changes and stuff =]

THANX MAN!!!!

Great!

You know what, i am going to give this song 10/10...It has great beat, and all the synths are great, it is a complex song which i can really hear the hard work in, great work =]

I really just enjoyed it, it was fast, but calming. I am so picturing this to one of those old SEGA fighting games, or the menu music for a driving game! really cool how you made everything so smooth and fast =)

The transitions and the overall construction + the sound is just fucking ace, this song goes under my list of downloaded songs, which i promise you is not long!

incredible!

Cheez-R-Us responds:

Thanks for the effort you put in this review, appreciate it!

This song is amazing

It is just so good, really, the intro piano is just so great and epical. The sound of the piano is great, the delay, and im sure some reeverb =]

The melody is great, it is basicly just amazing =]

When you add your great beat to the piano, you raise the song to the level of ''great DnB'' which i have no problem seeing go pro =]

The soundquality is great, good job on the mastering there, and the transitions are GREAT!

i am sorry for the short review, but DnB aint really my area, im more on the HHC/Hands-Up area =P

GREAT SONG! i added both IT and YOU to fav! ;-)

Thank you so much, this is a wonderful review, it's not short at all. Very informative and to the point. Thank you again !

Awesome! =D

Oh gawd this was to good to be newgrounds material, i mean this is pro!

The intro melody and sound was great, you got me interested from the beginning with your interesting choice of synth sound (X-files! =D) and the melodies didnt follow that same boring fucking bassline that is on newgrounds with the 1351351351 Dj's that are on this site =P

great job on the construction, they are clean, and they do not interrupt the song or ruin the overall energy of the song, they add something to the song improving my impression =]

the construction is great, now the energy of the song comes back in the picture, i stayed interesting through the whole thing, and the breakdowns were good, and everything just blended nicely =]

nice job on the mastering, i could not find any faults (im not looking for them XD)

Great job!

cycerin responds:

Thanks a thousand!

Hm, well it is good but...

Well it is good, but i would like to point out some faults that could really change my opinion about this song, maybe they will help you, i really hope they will =]

to start it off, i have to say that this song is good, but there are just some of those faults that like get my mind to ''MEH!'' XD

When you start the song, i get excited, but then you start adding bass and other weird stuff that really just dont stick to the melody, and the bass sound sounds like it has holes, i do not know if you made it or if it is a preset, but it is either to deep or it is just a bad preset =/

The soundquality is good, and that improves my impression very much, it is a good song when it comes to that, great mastering!

The transissiong are half-ways clean, but they sound like they need some work, some are to loud, some dont fit, and some basicly are just badly made =P i heard some in the that enters in the left side of my head-set, which got really annoying XD

all in all its a good song, but as said there were some minor faults man =/

NemesisTheory responds:

Hi! Big review :o

i think it depends on our stereosetups then...
i tweaked that bass quite a bit and it sounds pretty wide and deep here, but I can't hear the holes at all :o weird.. i also dont think any melodies clash with the whole feeling, but then again, opinions aren't always going to agree with eachother lol :D

left side of the headset? which parts were this?
aside from the ride-cymbals i didn't pan anything out... another weird thing lol XD

but yes... sometimes mistakes can't be avoided but you can learn from them :)

Thank you for the scores, and yes, but more mental work than actual arranging lol :p

Thanks for the detailed review! :D

Really great!

Now this is something i can see going off at some running-away scene, or by all means a great fighting/shooting scene in either a big hollywood movie or a big ass cool game!

The beat is great, DnB ftw right there, and i have to say im impressed that you managed to create that without slicing any beats/loops or using anything like that, because it is really ParagonX9 quality, just to use a newgrounds example =)

also the guitar shredding is just pure awesomness! (wtf word XD) The sound, (unlike every other fake-guitar sound here on newgrounds) sounds good! it really fits, and really adds something to the song!

The soundquality is great, the transissions are pure, and i see nothing wrong with the constructuin, you manage to keep the overall energy of the song up during the breakdowns, and i never got bored, im now at the 3rd or 4th looping and my god damn foot wont stop tapping!

Great job =]

shadowmana responds:

Thanks for the review! Although it might sound real, I can tell you honostly that everything is fake. It's all done on the computer.

Nice =]

The name just describes the foundation of my review, this is so mellow and relaxing, love the high pitched piano melody you added along the way, very nice =]
It just sorta got the song to be way cooler, i also liked the pan flute (if thats what it is), anywhos its great, the melody is just so fitting for like a game intro, like zelda or some shit like that, so good!

the ''beat'' is good, it just keeps that rythm, so that the listener knows where he's at =P

nice length, just perfect for a quick listen to calm one down =)

great sound, the piano sounds real pro! =D

Dj-Rippa responds:

Thank you very much Ethalyn...
Im glad you enjoyed the piano and flute combination.
It was a pretty basic symbol to keep the beat going.
Thanks again!

hm well =/

Well you got all the melodies right and stuff, and you did not use remix, i appreciate that =]

But this song was very sharp, it's like the sounds just cut right through your ears somehow, maybe another choice of sounds would help, the bass sounded like it had holes in it, like it was flappering (wtf word?)

The construction was ok, although the transissions could use some work, and doing something more interesting as it goes along, this is just KICK-CLAP all along the way, you should try doing something cool with the melody, or even add another sound to the mix, heard you added some ''eurogate'' ish things but that sounded very out of rythm =P

The ending was ok, you lowered the volume, and i think that for this remix, that was what had to be done, it sounded good in there =)

The soundquality, well i already mentioned the sharp sounds, but the MASTERING itself, isnt that bad, it sounds ok, but please choose another set of sounds for your next song =]

-Beating-SOurce-

SRT-M1tch responds:

It wasn't really a REmix, but a mix, which is the same melodies and all, just sounding different. Anyways, I'll try to avoid stuff like this next time, thanks for the constructive criticism!
