That's some loud drums :o

Everything's sounds pretty and nice cool here. I've noticed your latest songs sound happy and playful, almost childish in a way. :D

But I think the countermelodies could have done good if they were jumbled around a little- pretty much all synths in the piece are based on the same melody (except some rhythm changes like with the square synth). Synth sounds are trippy- they're very recognizable- it's easy to hear it's one of your pieces, especially from that slightly-out-of-tune pad in the background.

vewy nice

Ok so it's a relaxing song, but it's not like I would just fall to sleep immediately after listening to the song. Unless I would be like ridiculously tired on beforehand. Or something like that. Drunk maybe. Then I imagine I could possibly fall asleep to this song ;D

Well you could probably move those noises round 5:16 round a bit earlier in the track, so that the 5 minutes before it won't be the all the same pads with slight differences in note progressions. I mean it could work great as bg music, but it's frankly not like I enjoy to listen to those pads with notes longer than a black guy's cock (or whatever you want to measure length with, in case you don't like cock jokes).

Pads sound decent, although nothing special at all (I think I've heard that organic FM pad before... is that recycled or what? Oo). Quite a disappointment considering the title really- when the title is "changing world", I'd usually expect it to... you know... change up at least a little :(

ok laters

What the hell is that? A crowd of like 4000000 people snapping their fingers? Or just 400 peoples clapping? 'twas fun, but it lacks attack- it's not used much at all so it's not a big issue at all. Fun stuff, decent drums (although I'd like em louder), completely useless vox sample :P, everything's generally good (and I'm in a rush lol), so I'll just hand out a 5 and 10

lollllllll at all the dance music... I just don't get how you people make this kind of music. It's so... strange to me. :P. Well 'tis all good. I can't really find any cons- well as much as unrelated vocal phrases in dance songs make me want to bash my head against a wall, I guess that kindof comes with the style, seeing how those unrelated vocal phrases are used so much in, what do I call it, this kind of music.

Looks good so far, all I can suggest is of course some nice breakdown kind of things- they tend to be my favourite part of songs. Then after the breakdown strike back with some awesome intense shit. It'll be great <3

I'll give you my 8 due to the lack of mid and ending, I'll hand out a 5 anyway

Sounds pretty good- the percussion really adds to the creepy atmosphere of it. It's what does most of the track in my opinion. Good thing you're using a lot of different sounds, so it becomes more exciting. It's mixed almost perfectly with the deep, bassy pad, but I think that pad - all pads and keys in the track actually - should be louder, for atmosphere's sake.

That voice's nice, how'd ya get that one? Got anyone to sing it for you, or did you just grab a sample or what? I'd love to hear more of it, especially in that empty part with pretty much nothing but fx. And for that part- most of the middle, almost half of the song- I feel it's a bit minimalist. Could really need a bit more dark synths and whatnot- even just another subtle pad could help heaps.

watch out for the clipping (in places like 2:18)

Well good, it's def. a good song with fantastic atmosphere, just needs a little more meat on the bone here and there. Sry for being late ;P

I HAVE RETURNT TO RETURNT A REVIEW I GUESS

For being a post-apocalyptic tune, I felt most of the instrument lack a lot of reverb- just to make it more dark and otherworldly etc... IT IS AFTER AN APOCALYPSE AFTER ALL >:(

The piano has a perfect sound- maybe a bit light, maybe mudding it up on purpose could actually be an idea to create the right atmosphere. It sounds perfectly dreamy with that chord progression and delay though... that chord progression is very masterfully done.

Strings sound VERY soundfonty... don't you have any better samples? I mean, they're good, but they sound like... thin :( Maybe some chorus/multilayering etc could do the trick to make it sound fuller and more realistic? Mebby?

Sax is pretty good for being a soundfont. It's still noticable, mostly in how it keeps the same tone all the time. Ever considered asking that radioactiverhino do some sax for you? I bet it would make the tune rock your socks off ;) Of course you don't have to do it if you don't want to be bare-feet for the rest of your life.

I likey. You did capture a feeling 'ere, but it's still got some places to polish.

Vewy vewy nice! I love the drums, they're all damn punchy and nice (and holy shit haha, it's like you've got a frigging arsenal of different drum samples there :O ). That grainy, short-decay ditty was probably what made the track so nice. And of course, I love that sweet sweet reese.

I WOULD be rambling a bit more about how I love every single thing here, but I won't, as I think it's pretty fucking perfect already.

Plz don't respond :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

The piano sounds really thin, like it's been drained for everything that is lo end and mid, plus it's ear piercing with headphones on a high volume :( ...I suggest add hell of a lot of low end to it, to make it sound fuller. The melody of the piano is great though.

Kicks of very nicely- but I'm not sure whether I like that kick or not. It sounds a lot like a tom (which isn't good seeing you actually used toms a lot in the piece). I'd love a tighter kick and a more present snare- one that stands out much more than your current snare. The main hat is alright- no complaints at least. Now those pitched hats were goddamn cool! I doubt it really fits in this piece, it being centred around realistic instruments and all, but experimenting is good. And it would work pretty damn well with some other experimental fx or synths.

That juicy, trancy saw synth there is good- adds a good amount of emotion. With some evolving of that melody could possibly play a great role in an eventual climax. Cheeeeeeeesy sound though- makes the tune sound less original. Though there aren't really many synths that add the same emotion that a supersaw gives :)

And yeah it's pretty plain right now. There's not much I want you to change in the current track (except for maybe drums), but you've definitively gotta build on it. Which I bet you will, considering it's a WIP.

You have some peaks spread through the whole tune (first one being at 0:05), that you might want to fix. That's it for clarity and mastering etc, it all sounds pretty damn good from there on. Except for the drums, the sounds are really delicate actually, especially that filtered yummy thing you introduced at 0:50.

As I said the drums aren't too delicate- the kick sounds way basic. The hat is like at 8th notes- I believe it would sound more interesting with a more varied rhythm- which I guess you'd find out easily yourself. A louder snare or clap could REALLY increase the song.

It's good, but pretty basic. I think you could work on it just a bit more.

I'm dead serious when I say I could swear I've heard that acid-y lead in the background in some other song. Anyway. I love the start- it's really promising, makes me prepare for something really intense. So it better be cause I'm all set for that >:(

Massive kick-off right there, with lots of interesting sounds (though some are kind of hid in the background- you might want to change around with the levels a tiny little bit to make everything audible- anyway, it bumps up and down in intensity for a while.

So there's this little break with a bit of talking there (what do those people say anyway)- until it kicks off again. It feels like I've heard this exact part earlier in the song- although I'm not perfectly sure. The structure is actually perfect as is, since there's always a little change that keeps the listener hooked. Well done :O

Well good
