Let me guess you use reason4. Sick distortions and stuff. Anyway track is nice and original. Good luck

Could have a done a better with mastering

The intro is nice though the hi-hat should come in the later parts of the intro.
The piano in the very beginning when it comes in should be quieter, i think it should be brighter in tone, more like a concert piano.
The bass is overall weak, it doesnt have depth: its more of a low resonant something than bass.
Overall the song lacks depth though its still not bad but i think you can do much better then this...

hellol

the melody gets repeated to much, when the lead comes in its better...

but when the lead comes in, the volumes of instruments arent tuned to eachother well enough. this makes it sound like there is something missing (dull). you can fix it by adding a multitone filler sound, or really adjusting the volumes to eachother.

also the drum loop doesnt change when you cross over to certain moods in the music.

i almost couldnt make out if you were using a wobble or not... anyway

make it more wobble, and then play with different rates.

here's an example of a wobble used very nicely:

you can learn something from this guy

DnB with a nice Touch of Aggressive Energy

That Acid Saw tone is what pumps the aggressive vibe here.
i'm diggin that.
nice use of different layers.
thickness that kick ass.
stay creative

Rucklo responds:

the rougher synth is supposed to be a little rougher and kindof slap the listener in the face when it comes in, so i'm glad you reflected upon that :)

thanks for the review!

Someone's got the "wow" factor figured out.

So many guys are so busy trying to sound clean they just don't get how different types of noise can add nuance to things. White noise makes everything much more real, because reality lacks definition.

Nice use of background layers, BTW. It's a nice use of subtlety. Would be a ten, but it sounded kind of dull. I think that's intentional, but I'd prefer somthing that pushes it's own envelope a little bit more.

Rucklo responds:

not exactly sure how you mean by dull, but i'm no pro engineer, so yeah...
when it comes to thicken an instrument up, it's all about layering it the right way, just like you'd double a guitar or whatever.
thanks alot for the review man, appreciate it alot! ^___________^
