Great song

There are not too many songs in the audio portal with vocals it seems, let alone vocals in such a good quality. The mixing is done perfectly, it's as if I was in a bar where a band played some live music. Very nice atmosphere.

However, it would be nice if you could add the lyrics to the author comments section, for easier understanding. ^^

Too bad the song is so short, but on the other hand this is one of the reasons the song sounds so nice, I think. It's just a short and awesome song that makes people go "wait, why is it over already?! I have to listen to this again!".

Thank you :) I am still in the process of getting more songs completed, I hope you are able to check back and see what else I've done!

Great!

I hate to review a submission just after Supersteph reviewed it. Always makes my reviews look so tiny and shitty, lol.

Anyway, this is an amazing piece of art. I liked it from the very beginning. How soft it sounds and how it just sounds awesome... it's hard to create so quiet pieces without them sounding too set back or too boring.
But this song sounds just right. Quiet, calm but interesting.

I like how the melodies kind of "float" in this song. They seem to hover just above the background music and this creates a very nice medival atmosphere.

Nice work!

Glad you liked it! Don't worry, I'm happy with every review I get :)

Thanks for the review!

Interesting sound effects

The beat seems to be kinda basic, but it sounds nice anyway. I especially liked the sound effects you used during the melody parts. They added a special note to the song and made it quite unique.

Overall the song is very nice, and especially towards the end the song becomes really great.

Thanks for the review, I appreciate it.

Cool

Pretty cool song. I like the beat here, it sounds very nice with the bassy kick. The voice samples are well chosen as well and even though they are sometimes a bit hard to understand due to your editing, they add a lot to the song.

The main problem I had with this song is that it seemed to me as if the whole song was just some kind of intro. I waited the whole time for the "big bang", the point where the "real" song starts.

But the song is good anyway. :)

Good song

The fast paced intro is really cool. It creates a very tense atmosphere. I also like that we can hear this part again later in the song.
The flute gives the song a very strange twist. Unlike the piano (which is very fast paced) the flute plays some very calm melodies, which creates a nice and interesting effect.

However, the cymbal doesn't seem to fit into the song. It sounds a bit weird. Maybe it's the echo on the cymbal sound.

Decibel responds:

Thanks, I worked quite Hard on the Intro, it was very tedious to come up with that fast-paced intro without it making it sound bad :(
Yes, as I said to Lief913, I made the flute to give it that strange feel cuz i really wanted to give it an End of the world feel. I Can help but adding more instruments from then like the Pizzi Strings and The Choir.

Yes, the cymbal, doesnt fit in that much but it's the closest thing to an explosion that's not electronic that I could find, so yeah, Kinda. It doesnt have Delay (Echo) though, I amped it up with a hell load of reverb :P
So Thanks For Tha Review!

Good song

This is a nice track. I like the deep bass here. Also the main beat is very original and so are the melodies. I also like how diversified the song is. Even though it's over 3 minutes long it doesn't get boring even after the 4th or 5th play through in a row.

However, everything is a tad bit too loud, meaning that all the instruments seem to compete in loudness with each other. I think you should try to add some more dynamics in the song.

sumguy720 responds:

Hmmm? More dynamics you say?
That's just crazy enough to work! But what do you MEAN?!

But yeah, the loudness thing is a tricky and important problem to solve, thanks for pointing it out. I might try to re-master this track, but if I don't I'll keep it in mind for my future work. Thanks Haggard.

EDIT: 3/2/2010: Fixed

Has potential

Well, this song has potential. It's kind of slow moving right now (even though it picks up a bit later on in the song), but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. However, I think the bass should be a lot deeper than it is now, to create an even more sinister atmosphere. I think this would make this song even better.

SymbolCymbal responds:

yeah as im making more for this song im finding outy i need to chop up samples and toss in more of a scratchy feel to it as well as get the diversity flowing. i did take your advice and get the bass to be lower. i had added a sub bass and sidechained it with the wobble bass. now its low down dirty and you can feel it vibrate on your ball hair.
ill send you a PM when the full version in available on the haiti relief album. and hopefully youll go buy it!

thanks for the sweet review

Very good song, nice melodies

Nice melodies in this one. They seem to float so easily and really set the listener into some sort of "dreaming state", where he just listens to this song and dreams away.

However, there are two downsides... first the little beat that can be heard throughout the song (I think it can be heard for the first time at 1:04). It is really annyoing. At least to me, because it somehow reminds me of Right Said Fred's"I'm too sexy", lol.
The other downside is the sudden ending of this song. It's kind of like "bam, it's over now". I really think you should try to add a better outro to this song.

Good song, nice intro

The intro sounds interesting. I like the hissing noises in the background and how the bass is turned all the way down. Almost feels as if I was listening to this on an old radio. But then the scenery "zooms in" and we can hear this song in full quality.

The main beat and the melodies are very catchy, but they get a bit repetitive towards the end, so I think you should try to add some more parts to this song where you break up the main beat a bit.

S-Rock responds:

All of my beats I make for people rap or Spit over so I try not to overpower the Melody with more instruments. Just a Chorus and verse and a mini Bridge so the rappers voice is still powerful too. Thanks for the review though
