Atreyu presents Solarize - Guiding Light

http://www.soundclick.com/bands/2/solarizemusic.htm

Here's my latest track...first time to post a track on here. Any and all criticism is welcomed.

If that link doesn't work let me know and I'll have it hosted somewhere else. I have one other song posted right now if anyone would like to give a listen as well.

I fixed the link...I guess you have to log in to soundclick to download the track. I'll work on a better hosting place but this will have to do for now.

Whoa..man this is some crazy stuff man. I really like hte bassline and the pads in the beginning is really nice too. I like the pre melody loop that starts around 1:00. The melody sounds good except for the second part of it...there's this dissonance..it doesn't seem like it resolves melodically but that's just opinion. Try boosting the hp ends to get a more sharper sound...it sounds a bit muffled. Percussion could use a bit more. The end is a bit abrupt..but maybe the whole song didn't upload

Very good ideas in this song. Just need to work on mastering

Yeah that's why I'm changing my name to Solarize. Stupid gay band taking my name.

Thanks for the listen and review. The ending should be slow and DJ friendly but maybe soundclick didn't like my file size. I'm not happy with them and I'll probably just buy some space somewhere. I still need to use some compression on the percussion...I forgot about that in the last rendering.

As far as the melody, you're the second person to tell me this so I may try to think up a better second phrase.

And yeah my mastering skills are not the best at this point but that's what mastering studios are for.
