If you wanna get any reviews you should also try giving some to other forum members.
About your track, the opening melody seems abit out of key to me, try playing around with the chords, see if you can get the notes to match each other better... well it could also be the sound of the synth, i donno it just makes it sound wierd.
Bass sounds pretty cool...
The percussion needs some fatting up, try adding more effects maybe, like compression, reverb some delay, and add some extra layers, your samples sound abit flat and to simple.
The piano break is pretty cool, nice melody there, the build up is pretty good. but the synths sound abit cheap and flat.
The kick is really weak, compress and give it some more high freqs, or just find a diffrent sample.
When all the elements kick in it sounds abit empty and not energetic enough.
Imo it could also sound better with a higher tempo. |

Alright after listening to Dreams i can say you have talent but some ideas are just not coming out. It starts off awesome i think, but it feels empty, add fx, add little things just to make it detailed.
The breakdown is nice but the piano that comes in is too loud i think, turn that down and add a melody over it. The lead is pretty good BUT it sounds a bit too happy, change that around.
Overall a awesome production. |

Sorry, I'm not too fond of this song.
I don't like the bassline, think it's too dull. No fan of this piano either. Snare roll should be louder too, try to juice up your climaxes and add fx, as psygnosis mentioned.
In general i like stringy songs, if you know what i mean, but maybe some filters over yours will bring some more life. The extra lead tune at 5.10 is ok. But overall, it's not my sound. I think you should add some more variations. Tune keeps on playing and playing..
Not too positive but i hope you can use my comments. |

Hi!
Intro sounds promising. The string and piano sounds are not very good. Sounds like some fruityloops or toypiano. Some reverb is needed for strings they sound too dry. |

| i guess fruityloops has it's limitations. Thanx for the reviews guys..i'll watch out for these things...need to play around with the FX more. |

Hey, don't feel to down about it. :)
FL is actually very versatile and can do tons of things but it does take a while to get to know the darn thing.
I like this track once the piano has started. It could do with some more variations but I still think the idea is good. Perhaps not what I would call a trance track but it's still got something. It feels more housey.
What the track really needs first up is another much lower bass frequency to compliment the existing. Sub bass sound.
I also hear what DJ-Kreing is saying about the fact that something seems a little out of key in the intro in one or two places.
I can tell by your ideas that you have a musical mind but you just lack practice.
The track itself actually feels like a lot of stuff I played in 92/93. Baby D (Let me be your fantasy) sort of style, probably because of the pads and piano sound. Your track is however more complexed in terms of melody arrangement which is a credit to you. :)
It's always nice to hear a bit of personality in a track too. Take this and use it.
Also take some time to really find out what Fruity Loops can do as I'm sure you will be surprised. You may also want to look in to some VST plugins if you don't have them already.
Keep 'em comming.
Cheers

I wasn't too fond of the intro, but I like the ideas. String arrangments were good. The bass synth was okay, but not the greatest. I see you have the mind for this music, but not the experience, like most said.
I liked the actual piano melodies. A few things should be added to the piano, to give it a more powerful feel? Perhaps, Filters, EQ's, and a bit of Verb could help, along with some pads underneath? That's up to you mate.
I liked the melody after the break, with the piano! I have said this a million times to new users: YOu may find yourself remixing your first tracks in the future. Try it out one day - the melody is good enough! ;) |
