pretty good.

though what kind of house is this? it borders trance IMO, but whatever. still cool either way.

I gave it 5/5 (because this is fairly good, and to counterbalance anything that could happen to it, just in case... so really a 3.5/5)

SpliceMan responds:

This track sounds more trance than it does actual house. I wish I had more of an ear for house, but I'm more dedicated to the fast-paced beat. Thanks for the review. I was trying to go with progressive house, but progressive I hear, takes a lot longer to build up!

pretty cool

not exactly my style, but it's pretty good. very dark and... ominous perhaps? yet strangely.... interesting. not sure how to describe this one actually 0.o

FaeryTaleAdventurer responds:

That's perhaps one of the reasons I liked this soundfont. It's richness in its darkness, to perhaps being somewhere underground, like a sewer or cave. I thought about keeping it mostly dark, by hanging around in the lower octaves, but as I was making it, I felt that it needed some brightness to it, to give it a melancholy feel at best.

Good to know that it has a mysterious feel to it.

Thanks for reviewing!

-FTA

isn't this more of house...?

still good either way.

DreamEater responds:

yeah it is, but this track made platinum before I got a chance to change it... It's stuck here now ><.
Thanks so much for the review bud, I am really glad you enjoyed my submission :p

woah

that one was slightly impressing. I kinda liked it. a bit short too. if you made it longer, that would be better.

I can already tell that the main melody is used to much because I'm sick of hearing by the end of the song lol.

maybe needs some variation on it? like a melody 1,var 1, var 2? it get's a bit bland though...

just my 2 cents though.

also, that chord at the end kills me. It would be better to just have the piano fade away then to have that nasty chord...

I agree

I agree with concious automation. It goes to far to soon, almost without a warning.

I think that you need to work on the melody... the timing is off...\

also, I can hear some clipping. you need to work on the mastering a bit on this one.
also, the use of sound is fairly good, but WAY too much reverb. it becomes all jumbled with the reverb that I can't hear anything at times lol.

hope this helped.

meh, kinda boring...

It goes nowhere... I think that's the first thing you should do... but fairly good considering that your new to ng...

well, maybe you should make it tell a story? idk.

the mastering is pretty good all in all, use of sounds is fairly good.

reminded me of spyro for some reason 0_0

cool

it's great... I love it.

not much to actually criticize you on this though, it's almost perfect... yet... lacking?
hope you take the time to review some of the stuff I've made though, because it sounds like you know what your doing...

voted a 5 to even the rating out

It's okay, better then the 2.3 you had at least. pretty catchy though. I kinda like it. a bit strange sounding though...

GrayZ responds:

thanks man :)

cools, I like it.

like the other guy said, it did get a bit messed up at 0:14.

great otherwise BTW.

Eteocles responds:

But would you have noticed if he didn't say anything? ;)

Thanks though man! It's pretty crappy compared to a lot of my newer stuff hehe

not techno in any way at all...

still a 7 for a great ambient piece though. a bit to slow and... boring for techno though. the title is very misleading in the sense of it not actually being techno...

FYI, not all electronic music is considered techno, this falls somewhere between ambient and trance... either would be a good genre for it.

I think that the sounds are a bit to generic, maybe get different hihat sounds? they sound to plain. i would also suggest adding a bit of distortion to the kick, and making the snare/clap thing a bit lower.

also, an okay use of vst's, but still could've had a different sound to it, maybe less 8-bity in general? idk. IMO, just get a more modern sound that ties together better. also, the hihats are WAY to loud in the beggining, think about mastering that a little better. I think that the part where the lower synth comes comes in should be lots quiter too. in general, mix it a little better. some parts stand out more then I think are welcome.

and If you wanted it to have this sound and thinks it's perfect, then good for you, you accomplished what you wanted..

still a great little ambienty-trance loop though.

Dumami responds:

Thanks for the throurough review, I'm actually kind of new to FL Studio and unfortunately I'm stuck with this generic sound until I learn how to use cubase correctly. I'm working on fixing some of the mastering as you said the highhats ARE too loud, after listening to this a bit I started to hear all of these things sticking out terribly. The original title for this WAS simple trance but I don't know why I typed techno. Again, thanks for the review, I appreciate it

Just a guy Making some music. Don't mind me.
