I love the humming in the beginning very nice, all in all the voice goes very well with the calming music. Wish I spoke the language!

Relatively good timing with the supporting vocals, the only thing I can say is the Ss are very sharp and the smacking sounds don't fit well with this type of music in my opinion.

The vocals really dominate the piece, a very moving and soothing song.

Jabicho responds:

Thanks so much man! Your comment is greatly appreciated since it helps us a lot for improving our songs :D

Thanks again for your words, it means a lot.

Nice to see you're still doing music, and doing it damn well at that. I remember when we made that collaboration together years ago. Such a shame we never got around to making that second one. If you ever want to collab again hit me up.

Holy Shit! This is intense!

SoundChris responds:

Thanks a lot :D

Sounds awesome. It reminds me of the soundtrack from a game I used to play years ago. It has a huge library of extremely moving music, the spirit of which you captured here. It makes me feel all luke-warm and bitter-sweet inside.

My only qualm is that i think the reverb, especially on the bells needs a bit more dampening.

Krichotomy responds:

I'm happy that it could evoke those feelings.

I agree about the reverb, and I also realize now that I applied too much limiting.

Really nice. I can tell you mixed this on bad headphones though. Too much emphasis on the low end and not enough high-mid - highs. I'd like to see a remastered version of this once you can.

First I'd like to preface this by saying a few things. This sounds extremely similar to the songs I made a few years ago when I first started using generators and MIDI. Also I fully intend for this review to be 100% constructive.

The melody is not bad and is actually quite catchy so awesome job! unfortunately it is very very repetitive and does not evolve or progress over time. Another point I think you should focus on improving is the complexity of the overall mix, there is I believe at most 3-4 voices/instruments at a single time, not including the drums. Similarly, most of the track has an instrument playing 1 not at a time, no chords, sometimes I also do this too.

After that, the next things you can focus on are the drums and transitions. Four on the floor is great, but only that is monotonous, same with the 8/4 HH. Don't be scared to have fun with your beats, add in snares, Open Hats, some rides, toms, crashes and fun SFX. Don't forget to vary things up, because even the most wicked sick beat will get boring after a while if it is just looping over and over.

All that said, I sense potential in this song and I think if you develop your skills you can make some amazing music someday. If you ever need any advice or tips make sure to PM me and I'll help you out on my free time!

Good Luck!

I really love the subtle sounds you put in this song! It may not have a complex melody but the progression is really damn nice!

Great jobs on the drums, and the filter around the mid point is awesome!

The name works great and I could totally see this in a video game. If you've played Factorio or FTL I could see it in both of those games!

johnfn responds:

Thank you! I haven't played those games, but I guess I should check them out :)

Who needs melody when you have ARPS???

Dude this is awesome! :D

EctiBot responds:

Thx man ;).

the oscillation on the synth at 3:35 and 5:05 is a little too intense in my opinion. maybe at 5:05 it is okay due to the accompanying instruments but at 3:35 it doesn't sound great to me. Still a great track, I remember hearing the previous version somewhere and enjoying it.

Sequenced responds:

hm, maybe. i'll look into it

I feel the Intro would be better if the drums carried through. Clean sound but lacking substance in my opinion. Also it's very short, are you going to keep working on this one?

Heya! I make music!
