Arrr!
The whole song is nicely composed and stuff, my only complaint is that some of the sounds, just... sound so horribly cheap, while the melodies are so smooth and sick...
Other than that, nice one.

A song based on my dreams and complex melodies that haunted my brain for a few weeks. Tried to mix three different melodies into one song, and it turned out quite well.
A review would be nice!

Ok, thanks! But which sounds? It would come in handy if you told me, so I could prevent using them in the future.
Good tempo
A rather nicely paced piece with what sounds like a glass bottle xylophone playing some of the solos. A rather different and interesting instrument to play along with.
I think that the way the whole piece fits together, with a great deal of variation and a not very overpowering bass beat and drums, you really have got something to build on here for other pieces. I'd have said it was more ambient than D&B, but that's your decision.
If you're gunning for it being a D&B piece, I'd suggest that you increase the power of the drums. I'd also do away with that single note solo that was in there - you're better than that, play to your strengths.

Damn, I hope I didn't lose on or two points for categorizing the song unproperly? Anyway, thanks for the feedback, I now understand that the fade out was a bad idea. Although I don't do much fade-outs in my songs, this must have been the wrong song to use one in.
Nice
Very nice and relaxing song. The melodies are very catchy and it doesn't get too boring even though the song is over 5 minutes long.
Somehow I expected something completly different when the song started. In the intro the song has a pretty creepy atmosphere, but after about 30 seconds a very light sounding melody comes in. Here's where I first realised that this song isn't going to be creepy at all, but instead very nice to listen to. :)

But a song CAN be creepy and nice to listen to at the same time, right? Anyways, thanks for the feedback!
Feel-good!

Score: 9 / 10
Summary: Feel-good!
Review: I'd love to write this whole review in Norwegian, but I guess it's better to write it in English.
I've been listening a lot to Philter the later months, a real feel-good electronica artist from Bergen, and even though he's AWESOME, this is a great competition to him.
It was relaxed, laid-back, everything but unoriginal, and the melodies didn't clash with the drum n bass at all. The drums also sounded great, and I didn't really feel that they were repetitive.
The only complaint I have is the ending. Fading out is the eeasy, overused way to finish songs. See if you can find an alternative to it, but be careful. Endings can ruin a song.

Thanks for the feedback, good to know that I'm a worthy competitor to AWESOME artists! I'll work with the ending as previously said.
Er nok lurt å skrive på engelsk slik at allmennheten forstå ja;)
Excellent
You don't get smooth beats like this much anymore. Reminds me of a Sonic Level.
RTF?
svinepels responds:
Thanks for 10/10 and the review!
What does RTF stand for? Rich Text Format?
