wow, u know the title of this track EXACTLY matches the music, STEPS it is...

It keeps stepping furiously, every step is brighter/more uplifting/more energetic/louder... (steps 1 to 3).

Now, on the 3rd step it sort of slows down in the middle (I wonder why? ;) )

Interesting, how come step 3 is so long and sort of slow....?

You know, overall, very very interesting track -> which means I really like it.

I can feel there is some improvement that can be done, but I can't say what it is, maybe after I listen a few times, I will post more comments later.

I think the ending (the last 30 seconds) sort of go on for too long, maybe you should make a sharper ending, like the steps u doing in the track, instead of having sort of this long last 30 seconds playing..?

Great work mate!

Thanks Azca for the quick review

The "steps" are actually all exactly the same :)

I know some improvments like sounds quality can be made, but i'm not sure how as I have only been doing this for a short time.

thanks for the tip about the end, i'll look into that.

well, steps are not the same, the music is getting much louder as the track progresses, that's my impression.

I listened to the track again just now and wanna say that the track does have sort of "amateur" sound to it, I think it's mainly due that the melody is a bit simpler than the pro sound, but for a beginner, this is very good.

Work on the ending a bit and maybe if u find some way of maybe making the sounds in the melody a bit more pro sound, but I guess that only comes with experience.

Keep working, u got the talent.

I just meant the note lengths in fruity loops for each step is the same.

well I increased the filter cut, filter res, and reverb dry as the build up went along.. hopefully it made a better difference than just increasing the volume :D

thanks for the review of my first posted track.. it was actually a month old, hopefully i'll be posting newer (better) stuff soon. once agian, thanks.
