Alright, a different techno song. Use of other sounds instead of music that enhance the music and strings behind an upbeat of sweetness. Or is it. Read on!!!
Originality: Much different than what I usually hear. Rain behind the actual music, which I'll talk more about in the Clarity section. But it has an interesting pop to it, with the strings and the drum beat with. Though it's used out there, and your use isn't the best, you had more of an independent feel to it, which was really cool. The melody spoke of freedom, hope, and discovery of a new world. This new world was somewhat off track inside the city, but worked in a mediocre standpoint.
What I mean is, at 1:53 in your song, with the new melody, it seemed to get off track with the drums. Either you have this instrument coming in at a very aquard spot, or the rhythm doesn't fit in entirely. Putting aside whether you meant to do that or not, it wasn't entirely pleasant to listen to. If you better aligned it with the drums, it would be better off.
After that, you began to explore the jungles of the new world. This was defenitely the peak of your song, pleasent in every aspect. The rain at the very end sounded real, but at the beginning...
Overall for this section, you did alright. Some major improvements could have been done, but it still held out on it's own.
Originality Score: 18/25
Diversity: Yeah, good ol' Caribbean/Arabian feel with some cool instruments. It sounded really good too. I'm surprised that with all the instruments, that most of them were heard very nicely. Nothing entirely over the top, but some very useful stuff was used to enhance the song to be rememberable.
Once more, the strings held out nicely with the upbeat drums. The drums, by the way, were very diverse, cool use of most of the kit.
Good use of instrementation with melodies and the bass line are noted as well. Good job.
Diversity Score: 22/25
Clarity: No other sounds other than music, except for one thing.
At the beginning, you have to be careful using that rain. When it kept going without instrumentation support, it seemed to have more of a tin-foily sound to it instead of rain. Otherwise, you're good.
Clarity Score: 22/25
Effort: Yeah man, it was present and accounted for. It does seem you could have done a lot more at times, but overall, I was left with a decent impression. Not bad at all, but not the greatest either. Either way, though, good job working on this piece.
Effort Score: 23/25
Overall Score: 85/100
Good effort on this song. Hope to see more from yah!
