Sounds really good, you should be proud of this track wish I could of done something like this. 5/5 10/10 will surely download heck this music would go great with as footage for a video.

Bass sounds really nice and tight the kick punches really good I think.
The highs sound just silky and smooth nice spread of the stereo image.
Melodies and chords sound awesome!!!
Can't think of much else to say you did great, glad I clicked on this song!

Mich responds:

Wow, many thanks!

I actually got some feedback saying the kick could do with a bit more low end, which I agreed with, as I put the low cut a little too high on the equalizer.

I'm pretty happy with how the melodies turned out; doodling around on a MIDI keyboard and regularly recording those ideas as actual notes certainly helps.

Thanks for the kind words!

Improvements.

1. Make the bass a little more tighter.
2. Maybe a little more high end.
3. Possibly some more variations here and there.
4. Added with previous reviewer - Possibly a nice transition fx from 1 half of the song to another, like around 1:30-1:40 would fit nicely to the 2nd half.

Other than that nicely done, not sure what else to add good or bad. Sounds great.

TheZaaL responds:

Yeah, you're right, but I doupt I'll be completing that thing. Thanks!

Love the sound quality, you did great on the mixing and mastering, or had someone else master it. Either way it is very well done.

Sounds like it would fit many vocal versus very well, very well done.

I cannot think of any negatives to say so 5/5 10/10 and vote of 5/5!

TheZaaL responds:

Yeah that's meah!!! Thanks!!

Very well done also if you want remember I have lots of mastering plugins if you send me the loss-less file in 24-bit 44.1 from Fl studio Ill master it for you cause I'm cool like that ;)!. Anyhow back to the song review!..and Ill take my time as long as you give me notes to as how you want the song to sound in the end and I am getting better and mastering my own songs so I wont slaughter the song lol.

I think this is the best thing you have come up with so far starting to get near how good I am ;) but your a bit further having more experience note wise but eh I am also improving thanks to you haha..

Anyhow back to actual review..

Bass could use a tiny bit of compression to tighten it up make it punchier.

Mid range is pretty well balanced possibly could use some more warmth though.

High frequencies could use a bit of sweetening (which I would of done in mastering)

Over all is well balanced though and sounds pretty awesome, very good pitch bending! (wishes to master it for you) ^./.\^

TheZaaL responds:

I really want to do it myself for this one, but thanks for proposing yourself!!

So, yeah, I'll revisit it later... WAY latter!

thnks!

Sounds alright to me gives a nice dark atmosphere to the listener. Would be fitting if it was done even better. I agree with FL keys being a pain which is why I don't use it, plus i get higher quality piano samples from using the Miroslav that I have. I also see the lack of bass punch as mentioned in the previous review by Cahzmana. Mixing wise I believe the high end could use a little bit of work, I occasionally hear some high end distortion at times but not very much. Other then that pretty solid song! especially for a rushed mix down.

TheZaaL responds:

In fact, FL keys is the reason why I stopped trying/struggling/deseperating/suiciding, HARD AS HELL!! There is a limit to obstination, and I attained it!

Not bad, very catchy and smooth sounding, I like your want to keep dynamic range and clarity you did well with that. Its volume isn't low to me well that may be due to the nice low responsiveness of my AKG headphones. But yeah in terms of volume I would probably myself would have added a nice limiter and boosted the overall perceived volume up just 1 to 4 decibels. But that's just an optional thing, this song is perfect it for what it is. Its simple not to much going on not any cons I can think of but anyhow pretty cool song. I could see this song being used in a game as someones theme or a video with text as nice smooth background music I am so downloading it ;]

TattoosOfficial responds:

Thanks brevlin! Yeah I kept it really simple so it would be easier for me to mix/master. And yeah, hopefully someone will like my songs enough to put it on their game!
Thanks for the long response i really appriciate it. Stay tuned for more songs by me

I would say for the genre it fits more of "techno", trance has lots of pads high synth parts and light percussive elements.

The introduction was very nice, the kick was some what plain though, the over all melody though sounds nice. The change of the beat itself, and other then that the filter was alright. But gets boring pretty fast. Too dry sounding though for all the sounds, but I can see that if you are limited to what you have available this would be the initial problem. Other then that I guess not much I can say but sense I don't know everything you possibly have made it would be cool to learn more about what you use and what sounds you have at your disposal I may be able to help. Allowing you more freedom to make stuff and show you stuff I have learned.

TheZaaL responds:

I didn't put a lot of efforts on it, and it is a track 2-3 years old, so yeah, it IS repetitive, I have only 9 patterns. I was REALLY lazy on this track, now when I look at it, it deserved so much more!!

Thanks for the review!

Very sweet, East/West have great instruments indeed I eventually wanna get my hands on them myself..
The piano line at 3:30 was very nicely done I so need this in lossless flac ;p mp3 doesn't do it justice hehe.. this is very nicely done. ( I suck at reviews) hehe..

But I enjoyed your work very much.

Step responds:

Hey, like I said to the review below me, sorry for taking nearly a week. I have no idea why I didn't see these reviews.

Anyways, thanks a lot! I've never tried exporting my song as FLAC, but if NG accepts it that would be cool :P.

And nah you don't suck at reviews. You're many times better than a lot of other Newgrounds reviewers, that's for sure!

Thanks again for the great review - I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Awesome, you just accomplished something with things I wish I could attain and have the ability to learn music enough to make something has awesomeness has this.
5/5
10/10
around 3:20 that melody reminded me of the first Naruto series with the whole ninja stuff going on haha. It also then has the flavor of kung fu panda "ninja flavored" has well haha..also has a jungle feel to it. All in all great work.
Beautiful Composition!!!

Echo responds:

Thanks for the review. If you keep trying I'm sure you can accomplish whatever you want to :)
