This sounds interesting and a bit strange from time to time.

The main problem I have with this track is, that I couldn't find any sort of main theme.
Well, you DO have some sort of main melody in here, but it is buried beneath a whole lot of noise, it seems.
If you could cut down on those noisy effects a bit the song will greatly improve in my opinion.

ya, i guess i really spent a majority of the time fuckin round with effects, and no time actually making the structure of the song, will have to work on that

A happy and cheerful song. Maybe a bit too unoriginal from time to time, but nevertheless a nice song. ;)

Anyway, that clapping sound you used is a bit annoying, as nearly every techno submission offers exact the same clapping sound... maybe you can change it to something different? ;)

I like the slow pace of the song. I also like how you slowly build up the main beat during the intro. At first all we can hear is some hissing sound and then it gets more and more clear and suddendly you present us this nice melody.

Only thing that isn't so good is the ending. The song just stops on the last note. I was hoping for something smoother here (maybe a fade out).

SinZLazTWordZ responds:

Yeah... im still new to techno and all.... but im working on it and getting better progressing myself.. Hopefully il be releasing some new stuff soon. Sort of a "writers" block. Cant seem to come up with anything much. But thanks for the review and il be sure to fade out or have a more dramatic ending =]

I like the piano intro very much. But I think the guitars need to be a lot louder. Even right after the calm piano intro the guitar was too quiet to compete against the piano.

Other than that, the song is great. And I don't think it needs any lyrics. Just louder guitars. :D

I like the intro a lot. It sounds pretty fast paced and offers some nice beats.

After the intro it gets a bit slower. Time for the listener to catch some breath after that intro! ;)

After that, the song loses a bit of it's previous "line". It's just as you say in the author commet. "A little bit of everything".

Now, that's not a bad thing. It keeps the track from getting boring and you also have some very nice melodies and rhythms in this song. But I'm missing something like a theme here. Some main beat or melody that the song is build on.

Also, the ending is to abrupt. A fade out or a few seconds of silence at the end would sound better.

RyeGuyHead responds:

I was sort of building it around the lead synth in the beginning, when it drops out with the fast paced stuff, the pizz strings come in with the piano, but the end is alot of experiementing and recorded a bit too...

This is not a bad song, but it's not exactly what I'd call "great".
The build up is done very nicely and I like the change over from the intro to the "real" song.
The melody is nice and cheerful and pretty catchy. But sadly the song is missing a real climax. It goes on, it sounds nice and then it ends (well, it loops).

SupraDarky responds:

Yeah I didn't really want to add a climax to it so it could remain calm and peaceful. I made it that way so it can loop seemlessly, I actually had a platforming game in mind when I did this. :P Thanks for the review Haggard and I'm happy you liked it!

The description really helps to understand the song better.

I thinl the opening part is a tad bit too long. I imagine, if the deities only allow me to peek in through the gate that I don't have that much time to look around.
So, either make the intro a bit shorter or change the description to "[...] for you to look around." XD

Anyways, I like the changeovers from the sky to the earth to the sky falling. You've done a great job here!

DjCompass responds:

Glad you liked it.
I have an excuse! But not a very good one XD Time moves slower in the skyland... yeaah... That's it...
Thanks for the feedback.

Very atmosphic track. But I had more of a deep sea or a large cave in mind than the depth of the space, but whatever. It doesn't take away from the great atmosphere you manage to create with the different sound effects.

Maybe you should try to add a few higher pitched sounds to create a more "spacey" feeling.

Mad-Muppet responds:

Thanks alot for your review! And yeah, high-pitched sounds are a good idea, I'll have to keep that in mind :D

It's a good oboe track, but sadly the oboe is too quiet! It struggles to be heard against the background melody.

Also, at 0:12 the track sounds a little bit dissonant, but maybe that's just me.

The ending is a bit of a let down. Either try to loop the track or try to find a "bigger" ending to this.
Also, if you don't loop this you should try to make the song a bit longer.

Flash-MX responds:

Thanks for the review!
I agree on every point basically, I'm re-writing the piece and will probably upload a longer version sometime during this week,
I am also changing the entire composition of the strings, I pretty much rushed that process completely "D
I've also changed the frequency on the oboe so it cuts a little bit more through the rest of the piece,
Thanks again!

lol@Gorebastad going techno. ^^

To the song: I like the videogame-ish feel of that song, even though I expected something more dirty and heavy when you mentioned Gorebastard in the author comments.

Anyway, the song would fit very well in a RPG type game. Most likely this would be the track that would be played during fights. The song has a very nice length and it doesn't get repititve. Nice work! :)
