A bit of chilled out music. Plenty of electronics and a cruisey organ.

Lovely, intriguing. somewhat unsuitable for games.

Enjoyed this a few times.

Definitely got an original vibe. The sorta erratic beats (with extra layers of beats kinda mixing it up, adding complexity and making so the beats aren't really 'clear cut') kinda put me on edge at first.

The odd tempo and the mellow sounds of the melody really contrasted and made it sound fresh.

The more I listened (with the song on repeat), the more I got used to the beats and enjoyed the melodies.

It took me a fair few listens to wrap my head around it all - so much going on and there always seems to be something more to unravel.

I really love the way everything 'echoes'. The melody you start with the sax(?) at the start is great and the synthy-flutey melodies you bring into the lead around the 1min mark are lovely. There's a real sense of progression and whilst the start and end are quite similar, there's a good bit of digression.

My favourite part is within 20s of the end - when you bring it all down, but then have that glorious sound and bring the volume back for a bit.

My only regret is that it's not a loop and its length, filesize and lack of perfect loopage sets it back a bit.

Wonderful to listen to.

Question: have you made any loops, for use in games? Any similar in sounds to this?

This is a beautiful sound and could be perfect for some laid back puzzle game, perhaps with pastel colours. Or a simple game about swimming, perhaps where losses are rare or impossible.

Hi.

This trk has an interesting feel right from the get go, the kind-of jagged nature of the beats crossed with the more chilled out synths works well. I would have perhaps liked to have heard more of a build up with the intro, but that's just my preference and the track builds nicely all the way through with what feels like a very natural progression.
I can't really put my finger on it, but there's something about this trk that doesnt sit well in my ears, perhaps it's the unsettled feeling it conjoures in my mind with the slightly erratic nature of the mix when i'm trying to chill-out to the synths, it's hard to place.
Regardless of that, it's a very good track and a throughrally enjoyable listen, shame about the fade end though.
Good stuff man.

thanks for the review KB.
Well, the thing that probably doesn't sit well is that its horribly overcompressed. I'm so tired to fighting this 'loudness war'.
Well, back to the drawing board.

nice

Oh dj padman-man.

The reason why u made all thease typ of difrent music was it becuse so it can monefated so u could keep on making music? So u wont get bored of the same type of music style all the time?

dj-padman1 responds:

Nice to be back, thanks! Its hard to stay focussed in the holidays. Its easy to get lazy but I guess we just have to keep going.
Oh, but you have school, right? haha..
just joking, but schools pretty cool, you kind of miss it when you leave.

Yes, put up some more music, it sounds cool, I look forward to listening to it!

I hate having CPU issues and damn lag when you're just trying to make music. It just ruins the whole experience. If its driving you crazy, maybe invest in a dual core if you've got some cash lying around, they're supposed to be pretty good.

And you're right, I get bored of the same genre all the time, so I end up bouncing around between several of them. Just to keep the interest level up. Man, FL 7 just came out, you shouldnt be bored of it. Just do something inventive with it!

Thanks for the review dude.
