NEXUS WHORE

COSMIC COVERAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE

So overused. I would cut down on Nexus if I were you, many producers like myself find that it's unoriginal and boring because we've heard these same sounds a million times.

Find some other good VsTi and experiment with those, using presets that you can barely edit isn't necessarily a good way to go...

But nonetheless, your melodies are okay and don't seem very sour. Keep it up with melodies like that and you might be able to get somewhere xD

hehe, this is a piece I made ~3 years ago, back when Nexus was the only VSTi I knew =P Now I try to use NI Massive / Vengeance more but Nexus is so dam easy to use that at times I just use it without even thinking. Bad habits are hard to stop =P

I'M SORRY FOR THAT RHYME, GLAD I WASTED YOUR TIME, BUT YOU SHOULD PAY ME A DIME, SO I CAN REPEAT THAT CHIME

Synths are nice, but the percussion needs a little bit more, uhh, boom? xD

they don't stand out as much as they do. Perhaps adding more bass to the kick and more high ends to the snare might make it stand out alot more.

Pretty nice overall.

I forget what I did, but meh aerlghokrh

I've gotten a little bit more experience with DnB since I've uploaded this and I really see what you mean now. I've been keeping an ear out so that I can make sure to enhance it when I hear it needs to be.

Your chord progression is weird...

I'd suggest staying on a certain key tone when you're working with melodies (B Flat Major/Minor, etc) and chord progressions. In this scenario here, your pads don't even sound like they follow your pad too well, if not at all. The lead is kinda displeasing too (It's just a sawtooth mixed with a pulse and it has a delay thrown on it) which kinda doesn't mix with the kick. The pad is okay, but it doesn't match your melody at all. Work on matching a pad to your melody, or vice versa.

Now on to the kick. Do your kicks usually sound like that? It sounds like you totally fucked over the high end with your EQing. and with nothing really going on with your kick, the whole mix kinda collapses. Your clap is kinda weird, it seems to just stick out there because it's the only thing without any real FX thrown on it to make it sound odd.

There isn't alot of deep bass in this mix too, which kinda ruins the overall spectrum of sound as well.

So that's my overall analysis. You get a 5/10, which is actually supposed to be used as a mediocre term it you look at it, and i'm giving you a 3/5.

THINGS YOU SHOULD FIX:
-Kick EQing
-Melodies/Chord progressions
-Lead synth
-Repetitiveness
-overall EQing
-etc.

Thanks for your time.

This is very helpful! I probably should've stated that this is gonna be a long term project. I see that my fruity peak controller skills still suck, but i just learned this like 6 hours ago. I actually like the kick, i plan to add a bassline, and the EQing part...well it was late and i forgot XD. i see how the lead doesnt fit the lead, but the lead is 303 or something like that. Edited with a compressor. The melody itself was based off of Patrick Jumpen's, Holiday. It sounded awesome, and i honestly had this file since the beginning of time XD. Thats why it sucks now. Believe me i will update. I really appreciate a honest review. Maybe i should stop this song though and what until i finish my current one.

Great song.

I love how it progresses. As it gets farther, more and more stuff gets added in, and the whole track just kills everyone,

thanks for the great listen! xD

Bahdshah responds:

AWWWW LOVE YOU BRO1! THANKS :D

awesome uber leet

i came when I heard your basslines and that sexy pad

I can't give constructive critisism because dhltujsrtjfg

Kazmo responds:

Nice to know lol

You still submit here?

After being so busy with things, I never thought about coming back and looking for new songs. Well I guess things haven't changed, you're still getting bombed and shit like that.

Well on to the song.

The vocals are amazing. the delay effects are godly, and they mix so well with the piano and strings. Your percussion in this is amazing as well, it fits in with the flow of the song. Well done man.

Fuck it, you get my 5. It won't make much of a difference, but I really hope positive reviews like this do. People need to start manning up and stop zerobombing everyone's songs. Good artists like you and me need to get out there. I really hope things change.

5/5

Thanks man, i'm not submitting much on this site, just bits and bobs, thanks 4 the review

It's got an oriental feel to it...

The notes are layed out like an oriental themed song, so it kinda sounds neat when mixed with the strings, bass, etc.

Maybe lower the volume on the sidechained bass a little bit, it's kinda taking up the feel from the rest of the mix...

Nice song!

Meonly70 responds:

Thanks for the review Tim. Glad you liked it :D

Great demo.

I love the melodies. They're so lifting, i'm sure it could cure anyone's day. Get this song finished soon, i'd love to hear it! Also, Fl Keys. lolololo

I suggest adding more sub to the kick to make it boomy, and maybe make your hihats a bit more full., other than that, perfect.

ProjectStormForce responds:

Yeah dude, melodies are like my specialty. Anyways, thanks for the review. I'll see what I can do to those areas suggested.

btw - the piano is from Nexus xD
