Cool song! Love the 8-bit sounds. Really catchy and super smooth melody at 0:24, it's got a touch from some pokemon song. It sounds also like a keygen song, haha. I do think the transition at 1:11 is a bit lame.
Overall nice work (:

Mawnz responds:

Thanks for your thoughts on the song! I agree with you on the transition, but it was kind of a panic solution to give the listener a break in the middle of the song :p Could rework it later on when I get the time :D
Thanks again and good luck to you!

Cool! Kinda liking the beat and it's melody. If I were you I would make a different bassline, the only bass I hear is the kick and in the background there is just a weak wobbly sidechained bass. For the build starting at 0:54 I think you could have used a rise sound. At 1:08 and 2:58 , I prefer an instant start of the 4-on-the-floor kickbeat instead of waiting to kick it in for 1 bar. Also, I really miss the open and closed hihats, especially in this type of music. It would make a huge different and it gives the beat a huge boost. I really like the mixdown. Good use of up and downlifters. There is no such problem about the mastering. Not too loud nor too harsh. I also like the melody change in the end at 3:50! Good work dude!

Lalalo14 responds:

Yeah the bass kinda suck now! I EQ'd it down too much because I was getting a distortion sound with the combination of the main lead, kick and the bass.
I totally agree about the build-up. Now it's just a standard snare getting faster. It needs something more. Going to try to add a upriser there!
There actually is a open snare that begins at 1:35, but I think it's too low and not as crisp as it should be right now.

Thanks alot for the review man! One of the most detailed I've gotten and I like it!

Oh man. isn't that the 'Countdown' Sytrus preset? I missed it :'( Cool ideas but sounds like you just threw some random sounds in one song. The kick's punching randomly too. No actual beat or so. Try making it more listenable, please. (:

AyzanNightbane responds:

Actually, that's exactly what I did. I did work on the beat though. Just kinda felt pretty mischievous yesterday.

This... This is a masterpiece... You sir are too good. I feel so noob and bad now.
Amazing drop and those highpitched vocal chops were so amazing. How did you make that?

[Rise]

Not bad. I hear you like the Nexus vst? :D
