This is classic dude. Maybe not as appealing to most because of it, but I totally dig this, as a whole, its a great piece. Trance is meant to be repetitive, layered melody and delay, built up and broken down in however many creative and emotionally powerful ways you can muster. You pulled that shit off great, so I say great job, its a classic rave tune.

Totally reminds me of this israeli band a friend of mine introduced me to called Telefon Tel Aviv. Very good stuff here. I completely dig it, all except for the super glitchiness that comes right at the end...that was a little overkill maybe on the glitch, but the rest of it is fuckin superb dude.
Author's Response:
I love Telefon Tel Aviv :D
I suppose the ending was a bit much, but I never really finished this tune. Thanks for the review man :)

You get better by experimenting and learning as much as you can about the way you're writing music. Get some tutorials, study some musicology, listen to the way other people do it and try to emulate what you like, these are methods to improving your skill. Reviews on newgrounds are mostly worthless. If you're using fl studio, try www.warbeats.com and for musicology I'd reccomend hitting up wikipedia and looking up chord progressions...for a start anyway.

How the hell did you upload a 35 minute song...well, more like a recording of noise? The cap is 8mb, some of my songs are less than 4 minutes and more than 8mb...

This is nothing like anything I've ever heard on newgrounds before. It reminds me of boards of canada, with alot less hip hop influence. Very minimal, intriguing. I could totally see this as background in a sad asian flick. Frkin awesome dude.

I totally dig it dude. Kinda hip hoppish, and folkish at the same time. Love that feelin. It's like a gangster, but he's got a cool chill side. I'd reccomend a better VST or the real thing for your acoustic guitar though. Even a bad recording of an acoustic guitar can be used for a high quality end product sound (layer it with VSTs). Where's the rest of the song anyhow? I'm interested in hearing it :)
5/5 10/10
Author's Response:
I don't have an acoustic guitar at the moment, or a high quality mic to record it with, but i do plan on getting both of those soon. I completely agree with you on that. The original song was pretty repetitive, and it wasn't really something i intended on making a full remix of, and since this melody/riff is pretty much played throughout the entire piece, i thought it would just suffice to make a loop of it.
Looks like they took down the original on imeem.com I was going to link the original to you, but i guess they dont' have it anymore :(
They aren't well known so it may take a little bit of time to find it, but i bet if you looked hard enough you could find it : / Sorry about that.
Anyways, Thanks for the review!

Reminds me alot of the old grunge stuff from back in the day man, I dig it. Needs some better mastering though...considering the music without the quality, superb. I'm going to ignore the lacking mastering and mixing in this song and judge it as an indie band on the local scene...which makes this song awesome, actually, heheh. Props, keep it up, get some better softwares or equipment or whatever...but the music is straight badass.
Author's Response:
Thank you so much man! This is what I'm all about, I don't have the time and equipment to learn to be the master masterer, but I'm willing to make music and ready to record some pro stuff with a little help. Sucks to be broke when money is the thing stopping me from getting my ass in the studio. I want to bring those days back man, just today I was listening to AIC Facelift album and that's the kind of stuff I want to hear. And by the way Soundgarden is one of my all time favourite bands and a really big influence. Thank you very much!

Reminds me of a clock the way the snare switches left and right channels. Frkin cool idea man. Choirs are ok, but they could be better. They do sound alot like strings afterall, heh. I'm still anticipating a heavy bass somewhere, but its totally not like you to do that, heheh. No fault in it, that's just my preference man. I dig it overall, you get props.

yeah i hear quite a bit of songs with some instrument riding back and forth, so i decided to get on the bandwagon
i dont put basses in my ambient tracks ever really, i doesnt do well with the ambience

I love how you mix your drums...the EQ particularly. Sounds great! Enclosed, loud, but not flat at all. Very vibrant for such a tight sound. Would've liked to see a mid-range layer added to the end of the build up around 2:35. Its very much just high end sounds with a cool drumset, not much bass, not much else at all. Well compensated for with the glitchy drum solo however.
...I noticed the drums got exceptionally louder as they got busier. Maybe try to control those a bit, and one or two more midrange layers throughout the whole song really. That's all I can suggest for improvement...superb work, keep it up. :)
Author's Response:
yeah the drums do get a bit loud when the resonance in increased, but thats pretty much the only time the volume increases with them, as for the drums increasing as the track went, on, probly just a trick with your ears
yeah loking back on this i could have added somthin in the mid level reange, but whats done is done
also, i tried not to make anything too bassy, cuz to my it kinda takes away from the ambience
thanks for a very informative review
peace out
