Not exactly how I imagined it panning out after the beginning, but well done! I was expecting something more in the line of detuned saws (Envy-style), but the chips work too.
I also feel like it might have done a bit better if you had added a more personal touch to it - instead of just remaking it, REIMAGINE it.
I completely agree with what you said about your voice - it's a little too chill. Maybe try and sound a little more fierce?
I think the best thing would be to record it a bunch of times with slight differences, then decide what you like best :D
The start feels a little drawn out and repetitive, though definitely not as much so as Moonshine did. :P
It also a lot more build - right now you only have just the one measure of wubs before the drop. It could probably be improved a lot by a repeating drum sample, or other things that you find in lots of dubstep.
Other than that, great work! I can't wait to hear the finished product.
The song progresses nicely (especially the build-ups), and you have some interesting stuff going on. A couple things to work on would be mixing the synths better (by adjusting their volumes) and incorporating more sounds into the piece to make it more interesting.
I'm interested to know how you made it - what synths/samples did you use?
Thank you very much for tips:-)
I collecting samples from projects of other people..
Some samples i have from free vocal packs:-)
If you mean wobble samples and other stuff that's from Harmor(basic plugin in FL studio), i edited this samples little bit and make melody with it.
Kick at the start is REALLY weird, like too weird.
The repeated vocal sample for the first year and a half got boring quickly.
More or less though, the stuff behind that sounds quite good.
First drop -
The warbly synth on the high end sounds kinda bad to be honest... (Might it be resampled vocals?)
Overall this section of the song doesn't sound too nice. It's just loud and a bit obnoxious.
The breakdown afterward is something I love, though. That melody is great. I thoroughly enjoyed this part and the section following it leading up to the second drop, with a good use of the vocal samples.
The second drop is better, but the bassline of a repeated note decreasing slightly in pitch doesn't sound good at all. It doesn't matter if that's something with the genre - it just isn't nice to listen to.
The outro is okay, but it still has that bass synth that doesn't agree with me.
Overall, it seems like this is probably a genre song. The issue is that you tried too hard to make it in the genre rather than actually making it sound great. Don't be afraid to try something different if it makes it sound better.
>Kick at the start is REALLY weird, like too weird.
________It's a weaker variant of the main kick and I think it does the job well.
>The repeated vocal sample for the first year and a half got boring quickly.
________Matter of taste. I enjoy listening to hours of 80s hip hop to find cool stuff to sample. Another example of this is in my track 'This Beat Kicks'.
>First drop
>The warbly synth on the high end sounds kinda bad to be honest... (Might it be resampled vocals?)
________Can't say I have this problem, could it perhaps be your equipment? I've mixed this on both my monitors and headphones so any ear piecing highs should be tamed.
>Overall this section of the song doesn't sound too nice. It's just loud and a bit obnoxious.
________Haha, you've nailed this genre!
>The breakdown afterward is something I love, though. That melody is great. I thoroughly enjoyed this part and the section following it leading up to the second drop, with a good use of the vocal samples.
________Ty ;D
>The second drop is better, but the bassline of a repeated note decreasing slightly in pitch doesn't sound good at all. It doesn't matter if that's something with the genre - it just isn't nice to listen to.
________That isn't a bassline... Yeah, it's a genre thing.
The outro is okay, but it still has that bass synth that doesn't agree with me.
________No idea what 'bass synth' you're talking about. The outro is just the kick and the vocals.
>The issue is that you tried too hard to make it in the genre rather than actually making it sound great.
________I don't get this... I like a music genre, so I make a track in that genre and you're telling me that I shouldn't be making that particular style, instead I should write something YOU find 'great'.
>Don't be afraid to try something different if it makes it sound better.
________What's different about my track is that it is 150BPM, same tempo as Hardstyle, yet very clearly Hardcore. It's not even slowed down Hardcore either, it sounds poor when I change the tempo to something more standard like 170BPM.
From your review I can tell you just wouldn't like the music I listen to and your feedback is essentially, "don't make music you like".
This is sboopy O.O
Intro is sboopy.
The quiet drums coming in are pretty sboopy as well.
The melodies after that are interesting and somewhat unorthodox. Did I mention they're sboopy?
I like the part coming in around 1:00 (not sure of the exact time), but I feel like it could use a little more around the middle and low ends. I get a kind of Pokemon Team Rocket/Galactic/whatever else battle music vibe from is it... (was that intentional?)
Love the evil laughs later and the interesting synth that starts after it. Sboopy.
Also, you should enter this in the Halloween contest :D
