heartless1298 responds:

Thanks a lot Ethalyn!!

Great =)

Love the opening, reminds me much of the classic trance songs here on NG made by Kriz/F-777 etc etc =) And believe me thats a good thing. I do think you dragged it to a new lvl with the scratching and the more "classical" inspired touches here and there.

Lots of good sub melodies, well made and the piano thingy part around 1:10 was really nice. I would say this song is the best you ever made =) Well done ^_^

Cool automations, i hear you played around ALOT more than usual on this one. Which is important, the fun thing is to always learn something new right? =) I liked the melody that came in at around 02:00 - very good =)

I liked the intro, very good cello/violin action going on right there, and thats the "classical" feel im talking about. You can really hear in this how talented you are. Very complex and VERY original song.

I do hear some VEC1/2 fills in there, but yeah its always allowed to try out stuff like that once or twice. But i highly recommend you make your own fills and stuff. A great way to do it is to insert a fruity slicer and put a breakbeat loop ontop of that. Then you can make your very own drum rythms with ace sounds instead of starting from scratch with assmunching sounds or yeh like you did here, get a VEC fill and throw it in. It fits but you can get more your "own" sound and you can really custom your songs alot more =)

*Btw i just released a couple more songs and i saw that you had listened to every one of them, much appreciated man. Im very glad you like my music so much =) And dude, if you find the time some day your opinion written in form of either a review/comment/PM would be awesome. Tips and critisism is always fun to get from other talented artists =)*

Michael425 responds:

Haha, wow, thanks for all this feedback man. It's great.

That cello during the intro is actually me playing, I'm glad you noticed it.
I worked pretty hard on this one. I used some automations to make it all flow better.

I will definitely work on making my own fills for my next song. Haha, Just wanted to use a VEC fill once to see if anyone would notice.

I will keep on checking out your songs.

Thanks for the great review man.

Very good =)

I love the "fast" and very firm beat, i actually picture this playing to either a dancing on drugs part in a movie, or doped up on LCD part in a movie, reminds me of one scene in Requiem For A Dream =) And thats a VERY good thing!!! =DDD

Love the bass, it contributes into making the LCD/dance/relaxed feel and just sounds really good. How did you get that sound. I like the hihat, is it a 8-bit HH? It sounds really distorted, in a good way =)

Dj-Rippa responds:

Thanks man!
Exactly what I want to hear in a review :D
the bass was a preset that I messed around with pitch a bitch and added reverb and boost too.. Sounds different than what it was first like..
You noticed the 8-bit hh lol... your spot on with it haha
glad you liked the track and thanks for the great review...
Always good to hear from another producer :)

Really nice...

I basicly loved the bell beginning, for some reason... I picture this in a gangster movie. I mean like one of those tragic movies with youth in it, and like everything goes wrong. And this plays right when everyone sees how deep in they have gotten themselves. I really enjoyed it, it brought some cool picutres to my head, i always love when music brings out some more than the tapping foot in me. This just made sense to me, really fucking ace man. Keep it up...

I think the bell notesetting, and the "pad" (really short sound, not sure what it is) contributed to making that sound, i hope you will make this longer maybe? And really head for a movie/game part, i think it would be VERY fitting!!!

I know i can always count on you for reviews man.... i don't think im gonna make this longer but just know im working on a new one right now... i think ambient music is my calling... im gonna work with it for a while and see what i come up with man.... This next piece im working on... already has so much feeling....

~§in§

Wow... Unexpected... Dude, awesome!

When i saw the score and the amount of reviews and the review score i thought this would be like a newbie track. I never really took the time to look up some of your stuff til now but i gotta say im impressed, worth the listen!

Awesome start, i like the horn thingy that goes BMMMMMMMMMMMMMM every now and then, to like mark every 8th beat here and there. Sounds good. And your lead sounds good and everything exept for the kick is good. It sounds kind of flat. I would maybe recommend you choose another layering set for it and try setting the mid part of the EQ a bit down. That creates a little more solid and boost "able" kick sound that creates some real nice energy =)

Fitting bass, and very nice kind of shuffle/jumpstyle feel to it around 3:45 or something, really good work =) Nothin but ace in mah book man!!!

Awesome song, reminded me of Scooter in a nice way ;-) I mean that as in you didnt copy, you incorporated his style into your very loveable trance sound =)

Thank you for your time.

AWESOME!

ZOMGZOMG!

No this sucked, im just writing a review because i liking seeing all the 0's down this page?

Nice going man =)

This was unbelievably nice, but i think that you lacked flow in your bass. And i think the fact that you missed it pulled this down. I remember C-Wests's remix of this song, the flow was just amazing, now offbeat bass just didnt fit in where the normal 4/4 beat was, but when the 6/8 or 4/3 thing came it was cool though ;-)

A good tip to get nice well flowing bass is to sidechain, i am betting you already know it and really im guessing this is the sound you went for, and if that IS the case i still think that imo a sidechained bass would have fit in more. But ofcourse you are the artist and its all your remix man =]

isilma_forever@hotmail.com if you need help learning sidechaining ^_^

Now as said, really nice song. Good main melody and i love the original (the original of this song is by The Petshop Boys btw, youtube it ;-) )

Really nice transitions and everything but the bass imo is really clean sounding and theres no clipping or anything of that sort, ace song m8, really well done ;-)

4.95 / 5.00 (+ 0.0082)

(Nice score, im sure NG will rape it soon though, hmh... Ill vote 5 everyday if that happens though)

And btw just wondering, some of the vocals you have, like the TURN IT UP! And that stuff, where did you get those? I really want em x) I have like some vocal patches but i used em all xD

Nice song =]

Thank you for your time.

-[ BeatSource ]-

NICE! =D

Really nice scratching sounds and i love all your melodies and rythms, complex and original song =D

Love the arps and gates, cool sub melodies with that really high pitched synth sound and the drums are really cool =] Im guessing its VEC 1 and 2 + VEH 1 and 2 you got eh? I got em to, awesome patches for FL! =D They work so well and if you layer and filter sounds you get liek the awesomest sounds out there! =D
