not bad keep trying :)
The kick could definatly be a bit better, have more definition and volume.
There is some background air in the track as well...
the drums in general are too typical FL sounds...
I like the idea you have going on here, very different from the norm, sensicle randomness.. but i think you need to work on pretty much all of the sounds and tighten them up.
I do like the track, but it has a long way to go.
Yeah, you're right about the percussion. You could look at my comments in the earlier review for a response to that, but you are certainly right, although I don't use fruity loops.
As for the air, I think you are probably referring to the bit of static that comes through on the piano keyboard, which I can't do much about except maybe raise the gate and play around with it. But yeah, even though I'm recording directly with a 3/4output on that, there is some static. I hope it wasn't too noticeable?
I wouldn't call it randomness, but I guess that's because I'm in my head, so I "get it".
As for the sounds, I do spend a ton of time tweaking them, and working them, to get them just right. But I am limited by the fact that it is a very, very old (think 1980's, older than me) keyboard synth that I have to work with, and although I love it, sometimes I just can't get the sounds as 'tight' as they would sound if I had just made them inside the computer. I'll keep working on it though, but there's always going to be slight imperfections when you record something instead of just writing it, but that's sorta what's endearing about the whole idea. No one's perfect, so why should every little buzz sound exactly pristine and like every other buzz? I guess that's just my way of thinking, but you're definitely right, too. Sorry for that ramble.
Thanks for the criticism, it helps alot. Thanks for a very helpful review.
very good
Very impressed with this but i think your synth/acid line is too loud.
Its a nice blend of classical and trancey elements, it does have a very video gamey sound and if it was going to be more of a real tune, if you get my meaning, some of the sounds would have to be changed to slightly less cheesey ones and there would have to be a few more layers.
also your syncapated bass has no reall bass to it, its just a hit, and your drums sound different volumes in different places.
that said i like the overall feel of the tune, and i don't know what the competition is about but i am sure it stands a good chance
Nice
Like the intro sound, very transformersish.
The kicks okay, but the snare is too quiet i think, needs to snap a bit more. Its too much of an FL sample..
the random arpy thing in the bg was cool.
I like how your brought the piano in, like the riff alot.
The pads were quite nice if a lil dry but there is a serious lack of any bass in this tune, and it seems that you main synth lines are a little loud which might not aloud for any head room on the bass.
the beat near the in is kinda cool, but all your kick drums through out the tune are at different volumes, the one at the begining is most right in my opinoin and the one at the end is just far too quiet.
i like the overall vibe of the tune though, keep it up
good but needs work
The drums sound a bit like they are straight out of the FL free samples.. the actual beat is alright, but far too quiet, they need to be brought out a bit more, and maybe better samples used.
The synths are too loud, and have quite a gamey feel about them, but are doing a nice pattern.
You need to bring a warm sine bass into this piece, it would give it much more depth.
I can see what your trying to do, this is actually a very good starting point for a track and withh a bit of work could be awesome
I never know what to write here
i quite like this.. tho i wouldn't regard it as trance, i dunno if the beats developed more i would possibley called it IDM, but for now I will just class it under the big title of Electronica
the hissing high hat goes on a lil long for my liking, but other than that most of the tune sounded fine. I really like the eary sound it starts with, with a lil time and work this song could be pretty damn cool.. tho by the time you make it a really phat tune it will probably be too big for NG
When that happens head on over to mixposure... much better for uploading tracks to.

I would love to make the songs longer, trust me. But I'm using Dance eJay Demo. And for example, a song thats 130 BPM, the demo would only let you make the song like 2:07. I do have a remix coming out tommarow of this song.
Gotta love z3ta
hehe gotta love z3ta eh? Good track man, few lil tweaks needed but good effort. You made anything using z3ta but not using the presets yet?
Check out the program tab and then click initialise you can then put in your soundwaves and add filters and everything from scrath, makes for a much more origional tune, but is hard to make synths as good as the presets, but keep at it and you will make a banging track.
As one beat junky to another
Great work, nice variation stops and pauses, nice synthy and bassy sounds, great beat work, what more can i say?
that you love me ? :p
Thx for reviewing
BANGING!!!!!!!
Seriously this is a really good track. How did you make that high pitched noise? I been trying to make something like that for ages.
Love your beat work, good job on that although the main banging bassline muddys the drums a bit, might want to get some compression on it and a lp filter on both at differat freaquencys.
I loved how ever time i thought this track was going to end it did get better... My 2 subs are loving this tune, its not often they get any action out of the audio portal.
Nice to see some one who knows what dnb is as well!
Thax much, for the insightfull review. Most of my samples(bass,noises...ect)I sample sompthing, or have a sample then I Twerk the fuck out the bitch...Then add some Efxs...
N E ways Im glad You,and a select few people apresheate(i cant spell) Actuall DnB, even though some of my shit sounds afextwinish, but oh well.
Im in the midst of maken' some new beats soon hopefully they'll be here
from one beat junkie 2 another Thanx

Longer!
Mate this is a good tune, it could go so many directions, but with it being at 140bpm i would say trance is probably your best bet. Please finish this so I can chill out for longer with a spliff and the tune lasts till i can finsish the spliff haha.
I hate when people just use loops, instead of putting the effort in to make something original. I make my own stuff, check it out. I used to use FL but now use CUBASE
