The memories it brings back

I was at Thunderdome 97, 16 years old and kickin'. I remember 3 steps ahead's set, epic mindf*ck. may he R.I.P. Anyway, good stuff!

haxory responds:

thanks :)
3SA is indeed one of the most talented hardcore DJ's ever. RIP 3SA.

90's are the best, todays hardcore is just boom boom bawww. back then they put their soul in it.

Fantastic!

This is a great loop, where are those vocals from? Great beat, very trippy (in a good way!)

AeraDynamic responds:

The vocals come from the anime lucky star :D Perfectly executed mindless entertainment for everyone!

Rise and shine!

Nice man! I did something like this a while back, his voice can be very creepy, especially when you layer it like you did at the end.

DJ-Martcore responds:

Yeah very creepy O.o
anyway thanks for your review =D

::W!peout::

Impressive

I like the punchy drums, kudos. The bassline is good, but could use a bit more variation at times, not in chord variation per se, but maybe some eq automation fx once in a while, panning etc. It stands out now and I like it, but could get repetitive in a full song as it is very dominant. A tip on the vocals, they could use a bit more. Say layering, reverb effects here and there, but not to much. Also they feel a bit overpowered by the bass, some eq-ing should do the trick. I'm sorry if I seem a bit nitpicky. Let me tell you why, I like what you have done so far and would like to hear the full song reach it's full potential. In short, it's awesome, but with a little more polish, even more awesome.

P.S. the way it loops now, is awesome, include this in your full song!

5/5 deserves it
8/10 left some room for the full version ;)

ElectroLord99 responds:

lol :P yeah i will take this into concideration for the full song :) because i did this in one night, all in my headphones, so i didnt get to hear it yet on speakers lol because i didnt wanna wake up the family haha. but i will fix it up during this week and upload the full version ^^

Calm suspense

I like what you have done here. Though it feels more like a suspense moment in a movie than the dance/house feel you mentioned. Don't get me wrong I like it the way it is now, the dark/spooky pad, the classic piano and nice drums all flow together quite nicely. The original is one of my favourites too and I'm glad you decided not to take the generic dance-remix road most remixes take. A job well done!

malakai043 responds:

Hey thanks for your review Foraum,
I'm glad you like it. It was intended not too stray too far from the original with a kind of dark trance/house feel to it. I love the original, and in remixing it has been something on my "To do" list for awhile.

Thanks again for the review,

Very well done

Nice variations on very recognizable sounds. Got to say you made good instrument choices here. The remix is never dull and very powerful. Good job!

Mikeaudio responds:

Thanks man, I try lol.

Joy!

Some highlights:

Vocals: Nice layering and panning at interesting places, used great as effect / transitions and little buildups throughout the song. About the reverb, the original has a lot less but you gave it the remix-touch. I absolutely love it!

Bass: reminded me a lot of a Roland TB-303 bass! Fits the vocals very well. I like the note changes at 01:12 (well 01:16 actually)

Piano: Very calm and sounds like something is about to happen next. Works great in both the intro and the breakdown at 02:16. The last note of the piano pattern on top of the first drum is key.

Outro: Something similar yet different from the rest of the song. You could of used this somewhere in the middle but here at the end it's more fitting and serves as a nice conclusion.

I could go on and on but I won't..

It shows you put a lot of effort in this song (effects, panning etc.) and as a result I must say this is a very polished and perfectly mastered remix.

Thanks for making my day

Kazmo responds:

Joy! :D

Vocals: Thanksss, ya I added more reverb, I felt they were a tad too dry, I also EQed them a bit so that they fit the genre more.

Bass: I love the bass I made, I'll probably be using it in my later experiments of house.

Piano: Yessssss the key note on the first beat of the next bar! :] Glad you caught that.

Outro: Was meant to resemble the one part in the vocals, and I find it mad catchy lol.

Awwwww you should have kept going... :P

Thanks for the awesome review! I'm glad I made your day. :D Makes my day a little better knowing that.

Great tune!

Stumbled upon your profile via one of my reviewers. He reviewed 2 songs, mine (Mario Bros 1-1 Remix) and your Breaking The Habit (Epic) song. Read your profile post and decided to give this song a review. First of: Don't let those 0 voters get you down. You really submitted some quality stuff here and the real music listeners always appreciate a good producer like you.

About this song: It gives me a real energy vibe. Perfect for a party. I would play it in the middle of a nice dance set, just to keep the crowd jumping. The piano is a nice touch. Gives the track a classic sound (imo) and is a great way to "print" the lead into someone's head even if the track is over. I will definitely keep an eye on you in the future. Keep it up!

Leave me a review if you like. I'm kinda a newbie producer but would like to hear your opinion.

9/10 5/5

Laikros responds:

Makes me feel famous how I was found by you through other people! ^w^
Yes, whenever I listen to this song I picture one of my rangewide dances.

I might! Seeing since you left a nice review and perked me up, I think will.
Thanks. :3

Impressive

Right from the pause at 00:07 (nice touch btw) I was hooked. The bass is ridiculously cool. Fine job there. This song so makes me wanna check out poizone. While listening to your song I checked out their website and downloaded the demo version. Gonna check it out today so who knows, maybe I'll be making a poizone "infused" song someday soon too.

Back to your song: what can I say, it's damn near perfect. Really. The bass automation effects make this song shine, the variation is superb. Really like the part at 02:40. Setting up an ending like that, sick really! I'm hooked man. Downloaded, 5/5, 10/10

And a big thumbs up to you!

Fuiste responds:

Glad I got someone else to look at this synth, and really glad you liked the song. The trick to basses like this is adding in distortion AFTER a low pass filter LFO.

Once again, thanks much for the review!

Got style

If this song was in a movie. It would be just after the girl said yes. Picture yourself in a couple of different scenes, walking slomo with a big smile on your face. Hehe well that's just my vision though. I really like those "little 8-bit-ish low beeps/divebombs" you put in. Great little touches here and there.

5/5
9/10

Fuiste responds:

Our visions are one in the same, i think. That's exactly how I viewed this song when I was making it. As always, thanks much for taking the time to review my music, it's much appreciated, and I'm happy that you enjoyed the piece!
