[psy] Xelphore - Butterfly (P.S., I'm a girl!)
I'm not really a girl, but now that I have your attention...

Those weird breathy and echoey sounds in the background are actually (reversed) words;
So beautiful,
So pure and serene,
My wonderful...
So Beautiful,
So pure and serene,
My wonderful, my butterfly...
My wonderful, my butterfly...
My wonderful, my butterfly...
nice intro.
the kick really need turning up in the mix. its got a weak 'psy' sound that really doesnt work on the dancefloor. maybe a bigger beat.
as far as psy goes i do quite like it. im no psy fan so im not the best to review really. everything sounds nice and clean. just need more bite on that kick!
rich
20 views.. haha, I guess people clicked and then realized I'm not a girl so they closed it. 
Kick was kinda meant to be thin, as in alot of psy. Is this bothering anyone else? 
Nice track you got here Aquarian. It has a nice melodic feel but is still quite dark.
Love that dirty tech bassline. I'm really enjoying this style of bass at the moment rather than the usual rolling psy bassline which has been done so much. What synth did you use for that? It has a very low gritty feel to it.
The change at 2.55 a bit off. I know the effect you are trying to achieve though. It just feels too sudden and sounds off-key for the first few bars I think. A bassline change followed by the melody change 8 or 16 bars after can have a smoother transition. But then again this is psy, so do what the hell you feel is right 
re: the kick. I think its alright, but some of the upper freq might be clashing with mids of your synths. They are sounding a tad muddied by it.
Nice track overall. Aside from the middle part I mentioned, it has a very solid and intentional feel to it. Good work!
Bassline is a 3osc
i like it.
and for your deception, thats all you get.

Brilliance!!!
love the deep grunty bass line.
Nice start up. the build up @ 1:20 is killer. Great Energetic riff you have created Aquarian.
1:30 The bass drum could be deeper. My sub is telling me it needs a little bit more thump for this tune.
2:00 nice break
2:16 this new high fx layer seems flat, but as the mids enter @ 2.25 & it becomes awesome.
2:50 interesting pitch shift...
3:15 I like the way you morph the lead synth
I absolutely love the pads @ 3:20. They give this tune a dark emotional depth
4:15 filler high fx layer again.
4:56 At this point i got the impression you may be whinding down. The layers drop off...
5:15 nope, there's more....
5:20 Great deep bass...
5:35 ...one final kickarse finale??
5:30 I serious love this synth build up.
6:00 thumpen head bangen!! 
6:30 NOOOOOOooooooo....... I want it to build up more, to something greater!!!
7:00 ...nicely finished
Ive had a few drinks so I probably haven't reviewed this tune objectively. I enjoyed it very muchly tho. 
Great layering of percs. The hihats were a bit harsh. Was this done using fruity loops?
Thanks for sharing Aquarian

Cool dark sounds.
OMG BASS. You make me happy.
I love how a track this unabashedly dark has enough confidence in its manliness to parade around calling itself butterfly. It makes it that much more awesome.
Butterflies can be pretty dark, though, I suppose.
Excellent synth sounds.
Key change was kinda weird. Dunno why it was necessary, either.
Nice tune. Good an banging.

cool track. i liked it. there were a few acid sounds that really caught my ear. not bad for a chick
good job man
well... kick is weak as hell... psykicks often have low tunes making them fat as hell on a dancefloor what i know of?
cool acid sounds here! the track sounds really dark!
good track dude... and to defend you.. some butterflies i thought were "creepy looking".

Your kick get's lost and it has NO definition to it. Work on your mixing.
Also, what ARE you mixing this on. You're lower frequencies sound... GONE, (or at least not very present.)
I like that it's still dark, but it does have some melodies. Decent effects and tweakyness.
WORK ON YOUR MIXING
Granted, I am no expert, but I am getting pretty decent at it (school and experience).
All in all, it's just an opinion, and if it's not done, then just ignore me.
However, OVERALL it's pretty damn good. I like it.
