Whoa.
From the opening, I was suspecting this to come out... Not well. Haha.
The middle of the song sounds excellent. The drums blend well, and the strings just set the whole mood.
The only thing I would suggest is that you edit the opening, and maybe add a little more reverb to your piano.
Very nice piece here.

Ah, the opening. I don't usually start my songs like that, so I decided to try something new. I admit it does sound quite boring. What I might do is after every note, strings fade in, and once it plays another note, the strings fade out and back in again. Either that, or maybe give it a delay. Anyway, thanks for the review, I'm glad you enjoyed the song :).
Hmmm...
Some of your melody's seem to try to over power the other, and that makes them stand out by them self. When they should be working together to form harmony.
Your drums are pretty good, but I think they need a bit more presence. They seemed to be there, but they lacked that dance feeling that most dance song drums have.
The textures you used were really good choices. Some of the synths sounded good, but they seemed like maybe they could use a bit of reverb? The trumpet sound that comes in, it seems like it's a little too loud, I think that could be toned down a bit.
Other then that, it's got excellent composition, and it gives a very much trance-like feeling to it.

When you mention the overpowering, that's supposed to happen in some parts. I changed the theme of the song a bit from the original, making it sound more like a three way battle between the piano, the synth and the trumpet.
Still though, i agree that i tried too hard to overpower in some parts, i guess i could change that and i already turned down the volume on the trumpet ;)
Thks for the review, hope i'll be seeing more of ur songs on the RRC request list :)

Music box yes.
Haha. I totally hear a music box sounding... but I also hear a distant evil place.
Somewhat like a place, that used to be enjoyable, and laughter used to flood the area, but now it's worn out, destroyed, and only haunting memories of a tragic event are left.
Nice job here!
you fucking nailed what i was going for, great review!
I'm not a fucker :'C
But that doesn't mean I can't enjoy... Hell yeah! \m/
This was some heavy ass shit. Digging them grungy riffs. The drums are pretty dang flawless, if I do say so myself. and I do. So that means they are.
It looped almost perfectly for me...
Overall. Pretty sweet my good sir.
Rock on.
5/5 9/10
You don't fuck anything?
haha, thanks for the review!! \m/
YAY!
MY GOOD SIR! Thank you!
You've improved your skills greatly. By far one of the best works I've ever heard from you. Sure the quality could be better, but it's the soul that's put into it that will make it stand above any song I could ever make.
You put so much emotion into it, that it makes a story roll into play and tell a story of it's own.
The awkward pauses of before aren't there anymore, instead you filled them with rapid piano spots, which sounded excellent I must say!
The mellow and the rapid... the fast and the bold. They all faded almost seamlessly together, they created an epic epic song good sir!
I've not heard a better yet.
Fav'd 5'd 9/10... Not downloaded... cause I got a better version that's 17 seconds longer :P
Awesome awesome job man! Keep at it!
Well then.
I'm really not a fan of rap whatsoever...
But this song was quite epic. The instrumentals were so amazing. The vocals... weren't amazing, but it felt like a speech placed into a song, and it all perfectly fit together.
Very amazing job man!
"and heres your sack lunch ya momma gave ya
so boy go to school and please do me a favor
be the best that you can be, dont resent anything
life is just a test, so reach for the stars when you dream"
Awesome lyrics man... You seriously made an awesome piece here.
I would of never thought that I would of given a rap song a 10/10. Ha.
10'd fav'd 5'd dl'd. Awesome awesome awesome.
Hmmm...
This really felt more like a classical mix then a techno mix... I was expecting it to break out in some hardcore sidechaining stuff, but it didn't. I think it's extremely melodic though.
Very well made!
Thanks!
In the actual song (I'm still working on it - thats why it isn't uploaded yet) the part after that breaks out into some hardcore sidechaining stuff xD
This is just the intro :3
EDIT:
It's out now

Lol.
I like it. A lot.
I don't have much to say against it because I'm not a big fan of hip hop, thus I don't have much say against or for it, but if it means anything, this was one that I really liked actually.
Nice job. Good instrument choices!
Thaanks! :D
:D :D
Okay.
It's got it's moments, but I think you could do far better and really make it a piece of incredible work...
There needs to be bass through most of the song. It wasn't there, and that bothered me.
The transitions were very well done, but you need to work on some of your mastering. The whole song was staticy at times.
The drums were excellent... but I've come to expect that from you.
The song seems to lack at times, and I feel where you have 1 instrument running you should have 2 atleast.
Anyways, enough ranting. This was very good. The melody was absolutely awesome, and this could be so epic!
=Lublub=
Thanks for the great review ^^
Yeah, I know that it lacks mastering and such, I did this on a crappy computer, and that's the cause of the distortions. I think I'm gonna remake this and make a better version without distortions btw.
Thanks again
I can create melody, I can create a beat, but I'm not the one who creates the emotions you feel.
