This is really great for your first song. It has some really nice sounds in it, specifically the synths you used for the melodies and the strings. I also like the way the melody flows.

First most noticable thing was the kick drum, it Could really use some compression or just more "oomph". It would make the song 10 times better with a kick that stood out more. As is right now you can barely hear it.

The other thing is the melody sound that comes in at first during the intro part of the song is a bit too loud.

I also think some transitional fx would help too, something to help it move from one part to another.

Your doing really good so far though, keep on keep'n on.

Pretty much what Airyck said really. Like the flow.

Agree about the kick like. In fact, definitely raise the kick a bit otherwise the rest sounds a bit lacking. Lower the lead a bit.

It's alright man. The levels do make it hard to keep listning for long though. You've got potential mate tho. I'm well impressed for a first tune.

Maybe just think about how to vary parts from one to another - this is an area that I particularly suck at.

Well done though.

Yay i was thinking about changing the song a little bit...some of stuff just seems too repetitive and annoying...abotu the kick ya..i need ot make it louder..by the way what do you mean by transitional fx airyck?

Get a new kick and definitely a new clap, ugh I don't like that clap at all. Pretty decent synth sounds though, really good for your first production. Keep it up!

nice melody bro, great work

just listened to your 2nd track -> dreams

very nice, bro. Of course it is lacking a lot of "pro" sound, but the concept and the melody is great. I love the direction you are working in. keep improving bro

i remodeled the whole song...changed a lot of things..see if this version sounds better! download the song called Against All Odds

DJ Art - Against All Odds

nice

lol nice review very short!

WoW! How many new artists are surfacing like this! Dude man, you have MUCH promise for the future.

Cliched as that may sound, but wow! For being your first tracks, you have AWESOME ideas!

The melody was interesting, and the synths sounded really good. The pads, the Strings, all sounded pretty good too!

Progress. Keep going. At this point, you don't have a reason to stop producing. WOW!!!
