Review
MoonBird
New Producer Alias, Same Great Experimental Sound...
Reviewing an old friend
The firt thing to attack you in this tune is it's crazy bass, to be hoesnt with you, I haven't heard a detuned bass this good ever. The arp really throws you off, but man does it sound amazing. My review may be biased because I've been a fan of Waves Powers for quite sometime. The one thing that his tracks have that never seizes to amaze me is the sense of momentum and atmosphere in his breaks and drum and bass songs. The snare play is absolutely a trademark of Moonbird's sound. Once the build comes in, one gets attacked with a sense of overwhelming euphoria. The climax really plays a part in that feel good emotion. But my complaint with the tune is at the 2:42 mark, the snare roll could definetly be sped up before breaking into the dance section. Nothng does the trick better than a reverse crash followed by a crash. Maybe some air synths? You know, the white noise kind? The melody reminds me of the theme song for a show I used to watch when I was little kid. Called "Reading Rainbow". Man that was a hell of a show. A real uplifting melody. Some plucks would be really nice in this song, like a "filler".
The Good
You really can't go wrong with Moonbird.
Original sound.
Nice gated synths at the end of the song
Trademarked atmosphere
Nice progressive style melody
great detuned bassline.
New Alias 
The Needs work
At the 2:42, the entrance of the main melody is akward, it really has no intro, it just suddenly breaks into "thump thump thump"
It needs some beefing up in some spaces, it feels almost "empty"
plucks would do a neat job of fixing that. A supporting synth.
Overall
In the end a well produced track, nice melody (Although not memorable)
sounds nice and uplifting, great bassline is a treat, eq's sound just about right. Great job
FINAL SCORE
