Slower than usual...

This was very epic... especially when the vocals came in. This isn't one to up and dance to... but it's certainly one to grip you in your seat.

Really well produced, and very well structured. 5/5

Getting there...

Sounding good, and there are plenty of catchy elements in this piece, but I personally think it is lacking that lead that we all love to hum along to. It's fairly well produced although some of the drum kicks seemed a little off time.

All in all its a good effort, and i'm sure I'll hear even better from you in the future.

Fairly good...

I can see already that you have alot of potential with music making. This is a good song, but it needs to cut out the choir ah's and then bring them back in. It sounds too much when they are carried through the whole piece and it prevents it from properly climaxing.

Hope this helps, Jimbobsthebest

P.S. it's not drum and bass whatsoever, but as a newgrounds catergory it is the only thing which it would fit under.

NemesisTheory responds:

You're right about the choirs mate, I tried putting them out while making the song but then it'd sound way too empty, IMO at least, so I opted to let them stay throughout the entire song. Might now have been the best or original of choices, but a conscious choice at the very least. But again, you are on the mark about it.

And yes, I was wondering what this would fit under but I had no idea. I opted for DnB. :P

A cow?

Hmm interesting title... but not a bad effort. It's kinda aphex twinesque, which I like. It's different and strangely uplifting. I'm not sure why I like this but I do...

attemptedperfection responds:

Well, for some reason I had the desire to write simply, "moo" for the comments... which left my original title not making very much sense. So I changed it. Anyway, thanks for the review!

So when I get that feeling...

Very Marvin Gaye... this isn't bad although I wouldn't quite say it cuts the mustard.

Firstly you need to pay close attention to you mastering levels. Some of the sounds are a little over powering. You should also maybe try taking this track in to a different section... it seems to be very much the same thing on repeat.

All in all this track is OK but I don't think it's going on the ipod just yet.

Hope this helps, Jimbobsthebest

Nice tune...

Constantly building... constantly gripping... constantly phat.

Nice work, Keep composing!

Well....

At least its not one of your best creations :D

Getting there...

This was getting there. It's a nice loop so far... but where is the climax? and where are the lyrics?

If you were putting this up for other to rap over in flash then fair enough with the lyrics. I was kinda hoping for a heavy hip-hop bass line to kick in aswell.

Don't get me wrong its a good loop, but I wouldn't put it up there as professional in anyway.

Scary stuff

I thought this was pretty good. Nice and tense, perfect for those intense battle moments!

Good work

Brilliant for newgrounds...

This is a really good drum and bass song, but I don't think it would ever make the clubs. I'm a huge drum and bass fan I have been trying to write decent songs for so long and I have to say I haven't ever written any dnb as good as this, so much respect. But in terms of actual production, it sounds a little weak in places. I'm also not completely sure about the bass sound.

It's really hard to try and make comments constructive when i'm not sure what exactly it is that needs improving, but something seems missing... you know what I mean?

Anyway, voted 5/5, keep composing and well done for a really great track.

PERVOK responds:

This is the kind of track, that I wouldn't want to hit the clubs with; the drums aren't thick enough and the song doesn't have that groove. Plus, it's actually musical; this is a song meant for more of a listening pleasure kind of dealio.

How about those bad boy glasses? Minimal style music composer. Reviews always welcome, cheers.
