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!!!

Always good to see you checking up on me...
Thanks a bunch!

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

Woah thank you for such a kind review, It's awesome since i know you are someone who knows what they are talking about, anyways, i'll keep an eye on your music as well!

DXM

Great man =]

Very good transitions and breaks, cool vocals and great bass =] Real good hands up song, great man!

I guess the bass is what i really like about this song, it has some proffesionality over it and really pushes the hands up thing all out ;-) Cool vocals, good choice of them AND they are very well syncronized... Awesome man. Love the Beats N Bass vocals to, are they self recorded or liek what?

Cool =]

EnkoreDJ responds:

whoa, thanks alot :D

A definate 10/10!!!

Okey the reason why this is such a clear ten, is that you stayed true to the original AND you fucking overcame the original, this is 100 times better than the original!

I love your synth sounds in this one, i think that the original melodies fit way more into these pluck sounding saws than they did in the original versions sounds. I love the epic violin "ish" touches you added, this song did sound amazing and had a very atmospheric touch to it =]

The only thing i would protest on with this song, and your latest ones. Is the kick, its not hard anymore, it has the same power as when i try to create a flicking sound creating a friction motion between my thumb and index finger, it just sounds empty and really kind of drags the song down a bit, but i think the synths waged up for that. And made the song amazing no matter what.

But nontheless it would be cool if you tried a new set of layers/filters for your kick, i think it would help alot =)

Amazing work, just work some on that kick and you've got yourself a hit m8 =)

Thank you for your time.

Envy responds:

Well I was trying to base my kick around that semi quiet part at 25 seconds to 34 seconds. It was originally far too powerful for that break, so i had to tone it down a little. Maybe I did just a little too much. I mixed it a little differently to try and stick to the dance genre cause I don't think dance kicks are supposed to be as hard.

Oh well, it had to do with the mixing ultimately.

I wouldn't say better than the original, cause you can never beat an original XD it's a different genre and will obviously appeal to different people more. I'm glad it appealed to you 8D.

Thanks for the long review!

I love it =)

You know, this song DO have some rough edges but i like that. It really does reflect on the great dance artists on NG =)

Great song man, all i have to say. I enjoyed the simplicity of it ;-D
