EDIT;
i finally figured out to make the melo for both the intro & outro
also i did some experiments with zeta to create a nice sound that's catchy & actually fits together with the overal sound.
tho, i didnt had time for the pointers you guys gave, soon ill have time enough.
i guess the song is finnished this weekend,
fully restored, with a better kick more bass, less threashold(just a little)

ZETA - Square trance combined with Supa Dupa(both own style)
JUNGLIST - KICK

Reverb(not a double, maybe it will be a double)
Compressor(Doubled)

Kick bad? Hell NO!!

Awesome song, even though you have no intro yet, it already started of just fine for me. I love ambient starts and breakdowns!

The song itself progresses real nice, altough I miss the bells in the breakdown. In my oppinion every hardstyle song needs atleast an few bells, they're very atractive to hear, and give hardstyle some sort of soothing athmosphere.

The Kick is awesome! No problems to notice, it's an bit hardcore'ish though, could use some more boom instead of the pitches work. If I could adjust it I would turn it slightly down NOT TOO MUCH! Else it wouldn't be an HS kick anymore. ;)

The Leads are an bit plain, I wish I could hear some crispy saws, or some earpiercing lead. Although these are fine though. However I would love to see it adjusted in the final version to give it an bit more boost.

About the beats, Loved the fact you actually adjusted the kick to let it flow with the melody, most people don't do that, or don't know how to let it sound right.
About the snare, it got an bit drowned out by the kick because you streamed it on the same tempo. I still could hear it, but it could've used and bit more volume.
The godly bass is straight from paradise! You adjusted it right with the kick and melody, it whas an eargasm so nice!

Would love to hear the final track with intro and outro, and the pointers I gave ofcourse. ;)

Awesome song, 9/10 5/5 For still being an demo.

Wow

Thanx man ;O
First to start with this;
not every HS track/song needs bells.
you see i live in holland in a province thats called Overijssel.
I cal this the Overijssel sound coz Hyperdrive, an already excisting artist makes his way through the HS scene, made this sound too; also called the Overijssel sound.(all rights reserved tho, Im NOT copying his style :P)
i just made clear this sound is particulair in its way it has its own influence & style.

long story tho:P, but i see what you meen yea,
about the kick,

its hardcore'isch yea, and its indeed threashold thats doing it XD
and the punch(the boom) you where talking about stays the same :)
i also know humans/people :P just dont know how to play with te kick and bazzline, mostly bcoz they use SAMPLES(wich i did also, but not anymore since 3 days)
thats indeed lagg and too bad coz the bassline is the basic, it gets your melo there where you want it and how you want it, this song of mine shows how too:P

the final touch with intro OR outro(or either)takes time,
i almost have a nice intro melo..
but the damn kick wont work XD
i also will give it a bit(just a little) more bass in the overal, coz i hear the punch is still, a bit to weak :P and hear the melo needs it too

Soooo Thnx man, for just a demo :D
rly thankfully here :D

hmmmmm

Sorry but the bass(kick) was pretty yurk...
I think u should lower the threashold on it or something aswell as lower the pitch, but then again the sample itself was pretty bad.
I liked the melody but since it drowned in the horrible basskick I couldn't enjoy it that much.

Though I will vote 5 on this cuz u obviously put a lotta work into this and u rly like it. And also cuz u create harstyle which is a totally awesome genre. Keep it up and cheers :)

D-Chain responds:

hmmm yea i get your point tho.
im seeing forward to finnish this,

i know what you mean, this kick i created is hardcore'isch, wich shouldnt be a problem to fix ^^
so ill try my best :)

Thnx for the review F.O.F! ;)
