Lots of FX

Alot of FX in this song that is for sure. I liked the strings in the beginning they were nice. You should probably try to tone down on all the FX as nice as they are there was a bit too many.

Gave ya a 5 to boost you back up on your feet.

Gloudas responds:

yeah the exessive fx was more an experiment than anything, i threw it all in to keep it interesting but like you said I probably overkilled
thanks for the review :D

Beats my mastering

I can't really say I can help you on the mastering. The quality is really good though for your current mix. There is something about the lead I can't really put my finger on. It's good but doesn't feel like it gives the extra push. Maybe it could stand to be just a tad louder, but then again not too loud.

Overall your mixing is good and I suppose you would know about it more then I would so thats just my personal opinion.

dj-Nate responds:

Thanks for that though man; it helps!

Great style

If scores get your hopes low don't let them. You made an emotionally moving piece which sounds unique in its nature. Your style does show in your songs which is great, this one shows it off even more. In comparison to your others I enjoy this one the most so far. The let off and build up at 1:35 just made this song great to me, by far my favorite part of the song.

I've always been told in trance I should keep my kick booming, or more "hearable". It doesn't become overpowered in this song but it doesn't stand out. Overall bringing the kick out would give it less of an ambient feel.

Great song, a good blend of ambient and trance. We should talk and pass music ideas on AIM sometime.

PrEmoEffect responds:

yeah, i really wish they had an ambient trance section, because i think that nice drums are good, but i hate to ruin a song by putting so many empasis on the kick, cuz stuff like this really shouldnt me made hard core, because it takes out the emotions. Yeah, id love to talk, your AIM is mrmilkcarton right? mines PrEmoEffect, so just IM me if you get the chance, or email by DoomedWyvern@yahoo.com

Too bad it's so short

Could certainly see this song progressing into a full blown song. Can't really suggest much since 15 seconds doesn't have much to offer in terms of sound so good job.

HelgiB responds:

yeah but its cool now, i've fixed it.

Try this

Try not to detune your lead, if you do, just use 2 lead sounds. Make one not detuned and then the other one which is a little lower on the volume scale detuned. That way you can keep a clean lead and still have the detuned undertones. At least thats how I would do it.

Clean song just needs a few fixes.

Korpze responds:

I agree it needs fixed, but I dont remember puting any detuning in it.

Needs a climax

The song needs a climax, I was all siked for one to come but it never came :(. Some crazy melody would make this song a winner for me it has all the elements of a build up then it doesn't clmax.

All around the song could of been a winner with a climax.
Good luck on your music making.

I may re do it better if people thinks it could do a really good song, thanks for the review.

It's sounding good

At 1:06 I have to save I love that Arp or Gate that you are using. It sounds awesome if you ask me. Too bad it only lasts about 20 seconds. Your on the right track for this remix keep it up.

sonicxtreme responds:

yea....im working in a song...but i think ill complete this one...thanks

Awesome

The title fits the song just right. Has a unique style to it, dark but keeps you listening to it. There are only a few parts that could use some compression to keep the sound from going over the top, but all around its aight as is.

5'ed from me.
If you get a chance check out my new trance song {Take Me Away} and tell me what you think of it would be glad to have your input.

Gloudas responds:

haha right as i finished writing a review for take me away i came and saw this, pretty weird timing
well thanks for the review, you're probably right about the compression but i'll probably just leave it how it is due to laziness :D

Nice

The vocals really does set it apart from alot of the songs on here. Thats always a bonus. Good song over all the compression could of been a tad better at some points but over all everything was pretty good.

Keep it up.

PrEmoEffect responds:

Thank you. And about compression, well, im just starting to EQ, so i dont know too much, and yeah, ive tried compression, but im not sure exactly where and how to use them effectively

Needs some work

Well it's obvious that you put effort into the song so.... Things you could improve on are combining your synths and transitioning from one to another smoothly. The kick in it isn't as dominate in most trance songs so I can see how you are confused between trance and ambient. I'm not really sure how to classify it myself.

Anyways all said and done it's different but could use some improvements. Keep working on it and you'll get the hang of it.

On your free time check out my new song {Take Me Away} and tell me what you think of it.

DragonsoulX responds:

thanks for the review and i'll listern to your song too.

I makes music is I cool yet?
