Could have been recorded better.

It needs a bit more layering, some more instruments that back the guitar up. Otherwise it's kind of... dull. Also, the phaser/flanger you have on there doesn't really quite fit.

Hope this helped.

Quite good.

Quite good for a new music producer. Actually, it's hard to believe you've only worked with whatever program you're using for 5 hours.

This may not have much coherence, but it is well made and well mixed all around. Very dramatic. Please keep it up!

Problems I noticed:
-The bass from 0:16 to 0:22 seems off. Slightly out of place.
-The bits are a bit too short, I'd extend each "section" a bit longer, put some more variation in.

Otherwise, awesome!

You do not need random mishmash.

If I were you, I'd put some coherence, instead of putting in random clips from FLS9.

There's really not much else to be said.

DDDavid responds:

OK thats fine

This NEEDS more variation.

It works. But several things.

Needs not to have the drums at different pitches. Drums generally are one pitch. Have you ever tuned a drum to play multiple tones?

Also, it NEEDS more variation. I know FL studio is loop-based. I use it currently. BUT. That doesn't mean you can't make it more variable.

Hope this helps.

And feedback shalt thou get!

Intro: 3/10 Not much really there. It's basically a bunch of random sound effects (assuming the song starts at 0:56) that just keeps going on and on. Admittedly, the first sound was cool. Maxed out every single bar on the Spectrum visualizer. o_O

Going into main song: 4/10 Good, but kind of repetitive and not much there.

Guitar: 4/10 Good sound, but too short and FAR too repetitive at first. Second part with guitars kind of... dull. Not put together well there.

Drums: 6/10 Good sounds. Kind of well put together... Still not much there.

Bass: 2/10 In the beginning of the "song" part, it's just one note. Not much bass other than that.

Overall coherence: 1/10 Not much to say here... It's just pretty much a mishmash. :|

Overall score: 3/10, or a 2/5.

Hope this helped!

Good, but...

Kind of just... boring. There's not much variety. :| I'd put in more variety. Admittedly, it's cool, it's put together well, but... Meh. Just like, *yawn* throughout the whole thing.

NTReverbFilms responds:

Yeah, admittedly, it's clear that it was meant to accompany a scene as opposed to stand alone.

Sorry.

No. :| Just, no. The intro is ok, but at about 12 seconds, it just collapses and fails. Only one instrument, no tune that works. What this sounds like is that you just took a piano roll and clicked on keys with your mouse, recording the sound from that.

Try layering it, and having a little bit more variety in the instruments/tune. Make sure the tune is in one key or in keys that go together. From 0:12 onward, it's just monotonous, going up, down, up, down, up, down without any real coherence. It doesn't fit with the beginning either.

That's my two cents. Hope that it can be improved, because with the introducing tune, this could be interesting.

Bryan636 responds:

for real? i thought it fit because it is all aroud D well...

Eh... the intro made me interested, but...

The individual parts are good (aside from that weird overdriven bass that seems to be going up less than a half-step).

The intro drew me in, the overdrive bass didn't sound bad there. But then it just... stops. I thought there should be more development instead of stopping each bit and replacing it with another section that has pretty much no relation aside from the same instruments. Try keeping it all in the same key, or using transitions that work. This could use a lot of work. I'd change the key of some of the things as well, so they fit in with the rest. You have good drums, they could be used a bit better as well.

Again, the intro is good. I'd just take it from there instead of making it random clips, because that honestly is what it sounds like.

TheSoulScream responds:

Sorry for late Reply but i mean it "literally hangover"

Pretty darn good.

A few things. There are some parts that don't have enough variety. Like, in the beat in the section before the vocals (which I agree, should be slightly longer, or at least have a second one). The chording could also have a bit more variety. It's pretty much the same thing throughout, doesn't change much. There's only one variation, and that is used... once every cycle, I believe. I can't tell whether that was 4 or 8 measures (I'm guessing 8), but during the 3 (or 7) measures where the chording repeats, that gets a bit boring. Perhaps add in an extra note or two?

Well. That's my two cents. It's really good as it is though, if you don't feel like changing it, it's still a great addition to the music here.

Electronic/ambient artist. I started making music more than random scribblings in the fall of 2010, around the end of November. I think I've come a long way since then!
