I can see the improvement from "Unreal Piano". I'll be honest if this track was going to be a chill trap one, it would have been much better. The vocals are also good, except the part when you start "sampling" them.

It's sounds quite good, but it's not an original work of yours, and I don't think it's a permitted submission, you'd better to post it on Soundcloud. I asked some help to the Audio Portal Cleanup guys tho.

L-Mity responds:

This track is made by me.. I just Remixed. In FL studio.

Meh...it isn't that good, I expected something way better from you, like your most recent tracks.

I'm not that fan nor expert in Trance or any dancefloor genre, but I point out what I don't like tho:

1 - The kick is too loud, WAY too loud. It goes over the piano and all the synth it this track; a better mastering is needed;

2 - The piano is so repetitive. I'm not sure if it's a partcular thing of Trance, but I has the same notes all the time. Need more variations in it, considering that the whole track is based on it.

3 - The SAWs need a reverb. You know, to make i as much dancefloor as possible;

That's all hope you'll remake this track sometime during this year, It has a great potencial.

Thanks for the review!

I gotta say that this song was made in my old notebook (Only 1GB Ram and no capability to use heavier synths). Also, I was 14 years old back then, I didn't know what I was doing at all, just playing with 3xOsc and some of the most basic FL tools. That's why this song is important to me, it brings me back to when I was learning how to make music.

Ofc it has huge flaws. The piano loop is what gives it the title, the duality of it being the beat and the melody, that's why it is UNREAL, that's the only thing I can tell you that, if I make a remake, won't change at all.

And hey, I'm glad you like my most recent work, it makes me see that I improved a lot from back then :D

>GTB

A bunch of VDUB loops put together and not mixed at all. It doesn't worth a single star.

Cochu responds:

Oh, thanks for banning me. Whatever, I only used ONE loop.

I agree with @Holkan.
This isn't even music, this is...messing around with sounds.
Learn how to make your stuff before posting your work somewhere, seriously.

AlbertAnderson responds:

If you review something take the time to listen to the track from start to finish. What you have to say is completely useless and judgmental. What can I take away from what you've said other than that you are an asshole who didn't even take the time to listen to the whole track.

Just a common dubstep attempt, nothing more.

- The basses are too much monotone, which makes the long drop very boring. You should have created at least one more bass;

- There is completely no mixing on this track, that makes it even worse. The FX covers the melody and the same with the drums, that cover EVERYTHING.

It will never work in this way. Must modifiy this track and, why not, remake it.

.:FRICTIONAL:.

Meh...not that much to say, it's a common trance track, the mixing is good tho. Preferred to hear the piano part at the beginning, and that 8bit styled sound could have been made better, and also you could use some plugins to apply some reverb to it.

Pi0run-V responds:

Well, probably I will upload extended version soon, so I can try to make it.
Thanks for your review.

This is indeed big room house. Just a few thing:

- The kick punches too much, it should be more soft;

- The melody is a bit repetitive, you should fiz some parts in it;

- the second drop could have been different from the first one, it sounds way too similar, it could have been more slower also maybe with some trap style hats.

You're improving tho. Keep it up!

.:FRICTIONAL:.

Falsesouth responds:

Well, at least something. Okay, I guess the kicks could have been lighter. And I was too busy to really innovate for the other half.. But thanks again!!!!

Fine. Here's something without that white noise, and I enjoyed it! Now just fix the mastering and you'll get better.

.:FRICTIONAL:.

Holkan responds:

Yes, I definitely preferred making this sound than making the previous. Indeed I should fix that mastering
"-_-

I can definitely say that I enjoyed everything in this track.

- The melody is perfect, but you lacked on mixing.

- Expecially from 0:45 to 1:30 the chords are way louder that the...what's his name...xilophone? I guess?
Fix the mastering and keep up the good job!

.:FRICTIONAL:.

Jumper responds:

Yeah, the mixing was not the best on this one but i have another version that's gonna come out on youtube. I guess i should change this version since i pretty much fixed everything you mentioned. xD

I really appreciate your honnest comment, man. Thank you! :)

(should be fixed now :P)

get out.
