Nice

-I'm not sure if it's just because I like indie music but I found myself liking this quite a bit even though it isn't that high on the quality production. It just sounds a bit rough around the edges and would benefit from some mastering.

-I was able to keep up with the lyrics with relative ease in this song but the frequency of lyrics wasn't all that fast. I really liked the pace of how the lyrics were sung. There were quite a few repeated sections leading me to believe that you went over the chorus a couple of times throughout the duration of the song.

-The instrumentals really sat back nicely and supported the vocals very well. Some nice electronic effects incorporated with the melody, not too much percussion, and it wasn't too repetitive. I feel that it's much of an improvement on some of your recent works that i've listened to.

Thanks!

-Title-

-Well it's nice to see that you have lost your virginity.

-It's pretty good for a first attempt at making a wobble but like TeKNeTiC said it's just a little too hard and that makes it less free flowing. The melody in the background is a nice polar opposite to the abbrasive wobble though.

Nice

-It's definitely not all that complex or complicated but who says a song has to be all fancy smancy to be good. I enjoyed it just as much as any other song even though it didn't have a whole ton of instrumental elements in it. This was pretty much entirely electronic which is a little different than what i'm used to but it has quite the interesting sound to it.

-While most of the song stays with the same melody with a few variations here and there it stayed interesting and didn't fall into the category of boring and repetitive. I will have to say 1:07 was purely orgasmic to my ears and was definitely my favorite melody of the group and really the rise in volume and variation at that point was great.

-For a first time dabbling into this genre i'd say you did a pretty good job with this song. Maybe even adding more percussion without it staying with the same beat the entire time would be one of the things that would greatly improve the listening experience.

Review

-The instrumental combination of the guitar(s) and the drums in the background were aptly introduced in a usual way but the five or so seconds of delay on the guitar riffs made them seem more dramatic as they overpowered the drums. I noticed that the melody stayed a bit consistent during the lyrical part of the song to keep everything together in time. It was nice and helped put some umph into each line coming in.

-While the lyrics are well placed(delay thirty seconds to let the instruments get involved and being in the main lyrical progression at the beginning) there just aren't that many. Probably to keep the lines more compact and in line with the riffs but it would of been nice to see more lyrics in the storyline. A couple of lines sound like they are a bit rough when they are being sung and aren't consistently at the same volume.

-Like most heavy metal songs it's all about the guitars and the complexity of the riffs being played and how well they sound as they are being played. As soon as the lyrics ended was when this really started to show and I think you did a fine job with the riff progression in the end. Everything was going at quite the pace and intensity until you pulled up and slowed down to play out the finish.

I put my heart and soul into this song. I took my time! It took me appoximately a half a year to write this song. I'm glad that you like it.

As for the vocals I tried to make go along with the riffs while trying not to take up too much space. For me the music its self is more important than the lyrics. This is why I tried to stray away from doing repetative choruses and such.

Thanks!

Nice

-It's wierd in how it seems like a song that would be commercialized but it's darker and more on the side of promiscuity and misunderstanding. Kind of something that would be more popular on the underground masses since it relates strongly to people's feelings and what they are going through. I recognize that this is a song more about evoking emotions than it is about pure instrumentals but it would be nice to have more complex instrument combinations.

-While I do like modification being used on vocals I think you did it just a little too much since at times it is hard to hear them clearly. Having lyrics posted would be one of the easiest ways to fix this problem since you don't need to change the song and we could be enlightened to the lyrics of the troublesome spots. Not too glaring in retrospect but it's hard to judge the lyrics if you don't know every line in the song. The humming or droning sound in the background was a great pairing for the vocals since they were dark. It wouldn't of hurt to put more bass in the background though.

Well

-Seeing as how this is a remix from someone elses work and you were so kind enough to actually give the link to the original version of the song I went ahead and listened to shadow6nothing9's original version before even listening to how you remixed and reworked his song. I was taken aback at how different it sounds despite keeping the basic piano melody in the background. While the melody isn't exactly the same since it was extended/slowed down a bit which was great since you put your own touch on it.

-While everything was really coming to fruition towards the middle of the song I ended up being confused by the use of the guitar at 1:13. It isn't entirely needed since you only use it for a little bit. You could of easily replaced it with some snare hits. The guitar is very low quality and even has a kind of grainy sound to it(not sure if that was needed). It's really quite a contrast in quality compared to the piano and drums since they sounded really good, crisp, and clean. Some mastering on the sound seemed a bit uneven because of that and it's wierd since i've never seen anything like that before.

-The song didn't quite progress as well as it could of either. You had some nice transitions in the build-up at the beginning but 1:13 comes up again as a questionable point in the song. It's a bit grainy sounding and doesn't transition well into the guitar. It breaks a bit and sounds choppy. Besides that one glaring area of the song I think you did a great job with this remix though. Not the most enjoyable song but it's a good listen with many interesting instrument blends.

Nice so far

-I absolutely adore the slow mellow tune that it starts off with. Not something that you hear very often and it sits as a nice base to work off of. While it isn't finished yet you have built yourself a solid base to the song at least. I'm not sure if this is going to have some vocals put with it but with how the instruments play out vocals would be a great addition to work with this.

-It's not the most dynamically interesting song though since the instrumentals stay on the same pace and structure, for the most part, throughout. You do add effects galore quite often and in interesting sections but since it stays at the same pace it feels as if it just drags on without a purpose.

-The positive thing about the song as it is now is that it isn't finished. You will benefit greatly from more structure and mastering in the long run. Also as I mentioned earlier vocals would be an interesting thing to work with this. Not sure how long it will take you to finish everything up and get the finished form but I would like to see how it turns out.

thanks for the review. i might give it so break down and vocal, maybe a solo

Good Morning Fine Sir

-You definitely do know how to name a tune accordingly and I like that for the OCD person inside of me. It's nice to see something fall in line with what it sounds like or close to what it sounds like. Plus it's a nice phrase unto itself.

-It does sound quite interesting and definitely doesn't pull stuff from one genre of music but several different kinds. It makes it very enjoyable to listen to for a wide variety of patrons that come by this song and as a result will definitely get you more listeners. While its best attribute by far is the joyous lighthearty feel to it that just makes you want to get up out of your seat and/or bed and do something.

-There isn't really that much to critique here seeing as how I really enjoy this song and I don't want to be too biased and let myself say that it is perfect. While changing everything up several times and seeming to be several songs smashed together at times. The song seemed to sound way better when it was free flowing as apposed to when it was more concise and structured.

:) Glad you felt the title was aptly named. It's something I'm starting to think more about when making my tunes now. Hopefully that'll translate to me writing lyrics eventually. :D

Hehehe, nice to hear that the joyous vibe was felt by you as well, I'd definitely intended it to get myself awake and motivated. :)

Thank you for such a warm review, sixflab. :) I'm happy to hear that my fusion of sounds is becoming more appealing. :D

I'm a pretty laid back person. Like some things about the new design but still like a lot of things from the old one :/
