haha!

I'm really diggin' it man!

With the synths it sounds like a funky little game song. I keep thinking 16bit ninja turtles for some reason..

Keep it up man!

hahaha yeah i can totally see that. haha thanks for the review

oooooooo

Damn, you put in a whole lot of work into this.

Everything sounds great I just have a few little things about it. Constructive criticism is all.

Sometimes during the vocals, it just feels a little off tempo or something. Some of the vocal notes clash with what's going on in the instrumentals. Also, I'm not sure about the "shakiness" of some of the vojavascript:submission_controller.Ge tReviewController().SaveReview();cal parts with the auto-tune.

You've built a great base to something here. Fine tune the vocals a bit and you've got a hit man!

I'm givin' you a 8/10 and a 4/5. GJ man!

How's it going man?

I like it. It's really house-y. The vocals sometimes make it a little busy, but it really does add to the feeling of the song. I'm loving that saw synth bass you have in here. Nice simple clean beat. I'm always loving your stuff man.

Only thing I would change is that a few of the vocals are a little off.

I haven't made a whole lot of music in a while, I posted up a trance one a little while back and am stuck!!!! I can't think of anything to put in it.

Anyways, GJ MAN!!!!
KEEP IT UP!

Hey i2abbitz!

Yea, I've been working lots of house music at 126ish bpm lately with a little bit of swing. I listen to a different kind of music now and I've fallen in love with the clean saws and clean sounds without all the decay and reverbs. I only used a few filters on this song when I made it because I wanted everything perfect quality in post production.

I'll check out your recent stuff. Thanks for reviewing!

~RedSe7en

I like your beat and melodies

Toooooooo many effects on the vocals. Is he trying to sound like T-Pain?!?
His singing was okay, it sounded a bit nasally even with the effects. Maybe tone down the beats and melodies or turn up the vocal to make it stand out better.
Any song with vocals needs the vocals to be the main piece.

I kind of wish you had a more chilled out beat. The melodies and the vocals give it a calm feeling, but your kick beat gives too much thump.

Great song btw and congratulations on the top whatever it is on the front of the audio page.

check me out sometime!

lol Thanks for the review man! I'll try and check you out when I'm actually awake...hahhahaha

Hey!

How's it going man? I would have to say that this is more down-tempo/chill-out than anything. I really like the beats, but it sounds a little sampled... I can hear one of the beats running on triplets which kind of threw the other beats off a little.

I like your melodies and stuff, but you need some more realistic sounding guitars!
Keep it up man! It sounds like you've been experimenting, and its sounding pretty good!

TheCon-Sept responds:

I wish I hadn't given my acoustic guitar away. It would sound a whole lot better if I performed it myself. I need an electric guitar as well.

And yeah this track has a sound that is sampled.. Got to work on their integration. Its been a while but I needed to spend more time on my melodies and harmonies instead of the overall sound like I used to. (Used to have a Harmony but no Melody and vice verse.) Glad to see that you are back as well i2.

Just one thing to keep in mind. This is a part of one big project... I just want to get some feedback for the music part.

XXXXXDDDDDDDDDD

Damn dude... First off.... Our pads have nearly the same melody in this song and my newest submission! Very "Rank 1 - Airwave" like. Haha!

Great remix by the way! Awesome bass, great builds/breakdowns, vocals fit perfectly, love how energetic and uplifting it is. Only thing I really don't like is the melody following along with the vocal.

Good music! Check me out sometime man.

Really chilled out

I like the arp-ish melody, but I think it could've been in a better instrument.
Your changes are too sudden. There's no build to a transition, maybe through in a few crashes?

Pretty good melodies, a nice simple beat, and a chilled out feel.
I kind of like it.

Check me out sometime!

sajo1 responds:

Hey, thank you. I don't get that many reviews anymore. I guess that I'm gonna have to start making even better music! :) time to check your stuff :)

My 400th Audio Review!

I like your synth melody near the middle, but it needs a little diversity. Your kick beat gets a little boring after a while, but that goes with any 4-to-the-floor beat. I'd like to know what synth/plug-in you used for that sound.

Keep it up!

Check me out sometime man!

Blakren responds:

Thanks for the tips! This is my third song by the way. Yeah, I only use 3x osc for my main synths and bass. Yeah, the bass kick does stand out quite a bit, so if I use the same one I'll spice it up a bit. I'm quite happy I started composing at a young age though (Teen.) Congratz on ur 400th audio review! I'm flattered you chose my song to be it. Thanks again Man! And I will check out ur work. It should be good!

~Blakren~

How ya doin???

Hello there Rawrthaas!
The beat is amazing. Such energy! And your little breakdowns kick my ass.
Loving the melodies in here! I don't expect any less from you.

Oh man, the screaming melody that fades in near the end is the icing on the cake!
I love the little beat glitches. Your piano melodies are fantastic. Such a great song!

Damn... I need to step up my game! haha.

Rawrthaas responds:

rabbitz!!

Ha!

Loving the instrumentation again!
You guys should really look into doing some down tempo / chillout mixes.
You've got all the right melodies, the talent, and the instruments.
Again I feel that the 4-to-the-floor beat doesn't do this any justice!

Check out the drums on Rob Dougan's "Clubbed To Death"
or "A Beautiful Mine" by RJD2, maybe try using a realistic drum kit?
(look it up on youtube)

I can totally see this soaring out of newgrounds into a movie.

Keep up the good work guys! Maybe come check me out sometime.

ApproachingNirvana responds:

Yea, I definitely hear you on the 4-on-the-floor kick. We're starting to branch out from these two genre clashes to other stuff. I guess you could say that we're (attempting to) stretch our creative wings. We'll definitely check out your profile when we get the chance man.

as for the realistic drum kit, we've got a drummer lined up if funds permit us to do so, but that's a ways down the road. A different drum kit was definitely an option, but I think we just loved how it sounded as is.

Hopefully we'll get picked up for something like that, but who knows. We'll see what happens.

Thanks again!!
