It's not bad...

The vocals have potential, but I think they'd be better in a bjork/froufrou type of track.

Anyway, nice work.

The track itself is something like 4 or 5 minutes witch is really short for trance.
The sound programming isn't good and sounds like you haven't putted much into it.
The track has a total commercial feeling to it and the fact that the vocals doesn't have a real message annoys me.
I review as I listen. I didn't want to give you full critic because I wouldn't have anything good to contribute on how to improve it.
I just dislike it and I have nothing helpful to say on how to improve it.
I didn't want to be harsh for no reason at all.

Cheers,
Omer

Ok, thats your oppinion, we ll take it like that, thanks for sharing!

No problem man.
Always remember, it's useless to write a distructive comment that won't help at all.
I'd appriciate if you can review my track on the front page.

Anuga mentioned this production on his site, so I gave it a listen, and here are my comments:

The music:
You should make a longer intro, it builds up too fast.
E.g. only breakbeat for 8 measures, then add that high pitch sound on top for 8 measures, and then the background, and so on...
The breakbeat drum is weak; thud, thud - should be thump, thump. Check out Hybrid or The Crystal Method, or similar.
Could use some darker sounds, e.g. change A flat to G sharp, deeper bass.
Loose some BMPs, 128-132 is more moody.
Let the music fade out completely before the track ends.

The vocals:
First of all, try to suppress your accent/dialect. I know Swedes have a hard time with it but it has to be done.
A bit nasal, but not disturbingly.
Pronunciation, pronunciation, pronunciation.
Longer vowels, feel my emptiness -> feeeel myyy emptineeess.
The message in the lyrics doesn�t get through due to reasons above, and that's a bit disturbing.
I won't comment on the content of the lyrics, as that is not essential to sound.
The effects at 2:09, 3:47 could be better. Faster echo to match BMP.
Bad recording equipment?

Keep producing and singing and the quality should improve in time.

I would agree with comments above...but certainly you produced pretty good tune here...

I like the vocals, but they are a bit hard to understand really :-(

you have really nice voice... :-)

Posted by PhilB on Oct-12-2006 08:04:

Thanks a lot for your comments guys.
Helpful advices @ "Groundline" and i agree with the "softness" of the breakbeat, BUT i dont agree with the build up. I personally like it that way, dont know, but i think it fits. lol
However thanks for your suggestions

really nice track - good production IMO but i'm not 100% sure on the vocal.

Posted by Akia on Oct-12-2006 18:17:

Thank you Elektro_Tek! Why don�t you like the vocal? Is it my voice or something with the mixing?
