It sounds very muddy at the mo. Also there isnt much going on Percussion wise. The bassline and riffs get a bit samey, add some variation. :)

The main lead itself is good but its too loud. The fx in the breakdown are nice. :)

Add some variations to it, add some percussion and maybe some pads or choir voices.

:toocool:

Solid intro, the lead sounds great though at 0:30 it does get muddy, need to sort that out, though I think you already know that. ;)

As mentioned by JakeC the bassline needs changing but the riffs aren't too repetitive for me. Remove the muddiness and lower the lead and everything should sound fine.

The structure of the piece is good but you just need to sort the volume levels out.

I'm not really adding much new here am I? :p

Sounds promising though mate, good work.

Very nice breakbeat style you have here. The Kick and the snares sound very crisp. One thing that takes away its innovation is the constant use of the much adored crash cymbal. The bass comes in strong. A plus. Ojnce it hits the trance mark it goes through a fluid transition. I enjoy the strings building up energy. Very orchestral. There is no warning for when the clap comes in. Usually this would be the perfect time to prepare its introduction with a reverse crash then follow it with that already well paced crash. As said already. The bass is of course very cliche. Although using a saw for bass is a good a idea. Theres many other ways to implement a saw bass. Other than the basic 3rd out of 4th beat.
The synth melody does do a perfect job in creating a nice atmos.

:eyes:, All a pro review by Kriss :D.
I concur in mostly all, about the juddy sound, yup, is muddy, try boosting up more freqs in the high range in ur leads, or overall track :).
I like the melodie in the break, bass, in overall is going pretty good, u just need to tune up better the Mix.
Keep it up ;).
Kopi =o.

Hi,

The track sounds good.

I am always expecting something else throughout.(especially at 3 min)

I dont know what should go in there,but i think if you found something it might make it sound fuller.

Cheers

hey guys :) glad to know most of you liked the track! I know it sounds muddy... but I dont know what to do about it.. ill try the high frequencies boost.. thnx kopi ;)! Ok so the crash cymbal's gotta go.. think im keeping it tho add some other crash cymbals for variation. I was very happy everybody liked the melody.. I really like making melodic trancepieces but I suck at it so. :p.
but when I had the distorted piano sound and that lovely bass made I fell in love with the sounds :D had to make something of it!
cheers for everyone's reply ;)!
