"fairly impressive work"

The music i've heard come from you is definitely more intricate than much of what is on this website. You're melodies are catchy, and the synths you use are pretty well thought out.
Now, though this is pretty impressive techno for a seventeen year old, there is still much room for improvement. I've only heard a few of your songs so far, but by the sounds of it, you seem to be using mainly major keys. If i were you I would try experimenting with minor keys and maybe brush up on some music theory. Especially if you are into Goa Trance, where minor scales are used fairly often among the more profficient artists in that genre. Also, I would definitely emphasise the importance of realtime synth tweaking, through the use of any sort of midi controllable knob, or with the mouse. It sounds like you already do some of that in your goa trance songs. I just think that realtime cutoff tweaking is a good substitute for some of the electro music cliches i've heard, such as the rather obvious phaser you used near the beginning of this piece. That's all the advice i can think of for now.
Btw are those rob papen synths you are using? If not, that's a name worth looking up.

I really enjoyed your use of real life outdoor samples. That's something that i've been trying to find a way to integrat into my songs for a while. The problem is that i haven't been able to find a good sound library, or buy a condenser mic. Anyways, I also really liked the synths you incorporated into the song. The ambient bells especially seemed to match the mood of the piece very well. Now were those jungle samples you used? It sounded almost as if they were a combination of multiple environments. Anyways, great job! Keep up the good work! Now, if i were to change one thing, i might add a mild drum beat to the background, or diversify the piece a little bit. But besides that, it was absolutely awesome tastic. 5 for sure.

Ok, so the way that this song has been treated shows exactly why I hate the newgrounds audio portal so much. Basically, the song gets one five, does well in the portal for a little while, then gets zeroed by some motherfucker, and disappears into the blue. Man, all i have to say, is good job on this song, especially on the bass. One thing that you need to work on though, would be creating a real driving and moving drumline. One that doesn't seem syncopated but just flows. if you wan't to know what i'm talking about, check out my latest song Psychotic Tendencies, which had a similar fate to this song, only it happened right from the get go. Anyways,keep doing what you're doing. You're remixes are bitchin, and you're pretty sick at adding nice bass and lead synths.

Peace out!

k, here's my basic suggestions for this song. Basically, the beat was pretty awesome, but i felt like the beginning was really lacking in the synth department. Now i might also work on making a main line that's a little more catchy and less repetitive next time, but at the same time, catchy is all a matter of opinion. So keep doing what you do, and keep on truckin. You're doing a good job!

You freakin rock my socks! You are great at this sort of dance trance style music! Keep doing what you're doing. The editing is fantastic! There is absolutely no clipping in any of the samples you took, which is a rarity for this site. This truly is some professional quality work that could easily be rocking some club out there!

I really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere that this song has. I really enjoyed the choirs most out of all of the instruments put in this piece. Now, i would have to say that this song has a great progression to it, and it would sound fantastic in the sort of game that you wrote it for. Great job dude. I honestly can't think of any sort of constructive criticism for this piece. Great piano, great everything. I guess all i can say is keep doing what you are doing!

Peace out!

I'm just writing this as a preliminary review before i go and truly analyze your music so i can see what sort of constructive advice i can come up with. All i have to say for now is that you are by far one of the most polished artists on this sight, and i love it! You are by far under appreciated by the masses, and i wanted to let you know personally. Keep making music! You rock!

Dude, your compositional skills are outstanding, and this piece shows that for sure. My one bit of constructive criticism would be that you should master the voice a little better next time so it sounds a bit clearer, but that is assuming that you didn't intend for the voice to sound the way it does. I mean, to be perfectly honest, besides the ever so slight voice difficulty, this piece is practically perfect. I would just work on mastering it a little better next time so it doesn't sound too crowded at certain points. If you don't yet have a mastering program, i would suggest izotope ozone. But anyways, you have done a fantastic job on this piece. It would fit perfectly in a castlevania game.
Now, honestly, i'm really curious about what sort of approach you take when your writing your songs. Meaning, do you start out with the beginning and just improvise from there, or do you lay out some sort of plan and then follow suit. Because, whatever it is that you're doing, it's working 100%.

Dude, you did a nice job on this song, especially on the drumbeat. It just had a very nice fluid feel to it. It sounds as if the song were driving through a city while a bunch of crazy shit was going on around it, but the song doesn't care, it just keeps on plodding. Nice job. I five this bytch.
