Woooow buddy

This would be great if you developed it a bit more. The beat is insane. But needs to be louder. The bass need to be a bit smoother. It blurs all over the place.

The melody is very dark tho and is perfect for a DnB track.

here we go :)

I'm a fan of this kind of stuff :)

The good
_________

Nice melody, and a nice synth to craft it.
The percussion is nice. And compressed nicely.
The synth in the back fit well

Other
______

The melody gets a bit repetitive after a while. You should check some tutorials on chord progression. I will help you to improve your work a lot :)

The bass should be a bit louder.

Thanks! :)

I'll check it out for sure! Thanks for your comment :)

Sounds very royal

I like this piece. Reminds me of RPG's on SNES.

The good
_________

You worked out the melody very well. You put stresses on the notes ( if they weren't in the MIDI ). The use of bells is nice in this track. The fast paced snares sound very royal.
I could see this in a flash.

Nothing bad to say. Well done

Love this

I always loved the song.

The good
_________

The intro is nice. I didn't know it was gonna turn into trance at first. I alway forget to check the genre first.
Nice breakbeat to start up. It almost sounds like an intro for a mellow tv show :p
(thats good btw)

Other
_____

The synth is nice. Altough my speaker seem to dislike it at some points. when it stacks with the square bass I get a small distortion.

______

Overall this was a very nice piece of art. I absolutely love it. Faved it aswell.
When you bring up something similar throw me a PM. I'd like to review it aswell then :)

The percussion is nice, its hard to create a percussion over a MIDI.

_________

Overall not too bad. I like the start the most.

DainBramageStudios responds:

thanks. yeah you're right about the midi percussion thing. i've just downloaded a software update for garageband and this was my first time using all the new instrument sounds that came with it.

Nice start

I'm really into house lately. I really like it

The good
_________

You spread ideas over a long time, which is good to create an entrancing atmosphere.
I'm liking the melody so far. Sounds a bit minimal.

Other
______

I wouldn't layer claps together with the snares if I was you. Or maybe just for the intro.

______

I decent piece of work. Throw me a PM when the next version is up.

thanks man!

Will do!

I always loved these oldschool pieces of music. You use oscilator to make the synth ?

The good
-------------

The melody is crafted very well. If this was used in an actual game I would be get nervous by it. Thats a good thing.
I like the melody that comes in a 0.38.
Persuccion is nice.

Other
______

You should edit an ending for this or make it loop. One of those.
______

I really enjoyed this piece of art.

stevenfostermusic responds:

thank you for review :)
and yes i have downloaded your song called 'shooting star' its really good! im checking out your other songs too now!!

I'll comment what it needs !!!

Use chords for string. It will add an atmosphere of mystery. If you don't know what I mean by this, listen to my " in the eye of the storm ". Its a similar track.

The good
_________

I like the melody, this could be used in a flash. In a sad scene or something. As I said before, use chords.
I like how you layer the strings over each other.

Other
_____

Percussion is good, well timed. Ofc you're gonna improve the soundquality of it. As you say in the author comments

________

Overall not a bad piece. And easy one to review, scince its so short.
Work on it and it will turn out to be great.

OPQC responds:

thanks for so good comment!

yes, it might be usen in the flash... somewhat sad scene or something.
i try to make the chords. as always i have made them. on the WIPs i haven't always done them.
yea, the percussion is coming to be better, as i promise. and better. not so empty. but still not too much.
thanks for the 5! u was a great reviewer!

Yup ...

... and its believed these mirages were created by the fairy morgana.

Alright here we go.

The good
_________

The synth melody is very nice. You used a good synth aswell. The beat is well crafted and you use variation in instruments.
Using a piano melody end a song is a good technique.

Other
______

Altough you switch between instruments you use the same melody over and over again.
You use a reeverb on the kick. You better just compress it and use no reeverb. It makes it sound blury. When you add more synth you will have a hard time hearing the kick.
I'm not really a big fan of the cymbal you use.
________

Not too bad. I could listen to this when I'm driving the car.

Flashgame music

At the start I thought it was gonna suck. It wasn't too bad after all

The good
_________

Percussion is very well done. Sounds almost like a real drummer.
You create a nice atmosphere. This could be good for a dark flashmovie or game.
Good panning effects on the claps.

Other
_____

Its like you didn't master the claps. I'm guessing you used raw samples for it and didn't modify them. Remaster them if you get the chance. Filter a bit and add some reeverb. It will give your song extra dimension.
The bass and lower piano notes tend to clash together at some points and create a blur. You can reduce this by panning effects. Make one more left and one more right. Or use filter.
The intro is just one synth playing. When you start your songs you should use intropercussion. It will give the song extra dimensions.
_______

Overall this isn't too bad. But there are still some things I'd change if I was you.
