Listening right now...bass comes in kinda odd, but sounds good...(hmm i wonder where that synth is from )...break is nice, and i like the melody ...piano sounds kinda cheesy, but then the lead comes in to make up for it...buildup rules...and so on...another quality lightworks production

Gr8 track m8...keep it comin

Wow, nice amount of emotions in that one !

2 Main things:

1) The main synth sounds kinda "Thin" for the melody it gets...
If ye know what I mean.

2) For me it's not your best work because it's just ANOTHER Lightworks quality work... Hoppe you take this as building critisizm, no offense.

I have to agree with oDrori here.
The main melody needs a phat synth

A also agree that this isnīt ur best work. I remember the first tune I downloaded from u , canīt remeber what itīs called but I remeber that it was a hell of a tune!

U got the gift u just need to spend more time on ur tunes.
I have a feeling u just spent a day or 2 on this one, right?

Listen to all the "proīs" songs and compare em with ur tracks, try to get the same soundquality.
ie:
Spend more time on effects and stuff, try to use as little reeverb as possible but try to make it sound full and warm at the same time.

I have lots of problems with this my self!
Perfect Effect settings makes a big differance.

Cheers.

ok thx for your thoughts robstar

hmm well i did spend alot longer on it than just two days to get everything right, but i'll leave it at that... i'm a real amateur at this i know

see you later!

didn't see your topic at first oDrori, cause robstar wrote such a big one

I know the main lead is a little thin, but it's to keep the track a little on the mellow side. i'll see if i can add some more things to it, but at the moment i'm pretty tired of working on it i'll get back to it if i can sometime later...

cheers, thx for your thoughts

I very much agree with that. It is the only thing irking me about Forever - that it sounds a little "videogame"-ish if that makes sense. Just a little though - it is a very good track!

I recommend that you take on robstar's advice and add in a "phat synth" or something that brings out the lower frequencies. That way it will sound *even* better! It would very much be danceable then. Not that it isn't now, but it needs that spark.

Excellent work, man, I hope you take this bit of criticism positively!
