[chinese water torture]

hmmmm -__-

hello sean capps...

I have to say that the beat is good but the Synthesizer sounds a little cheap.
You used too much chorus and not defined the tune on a different synthesizer track.
Don`t get me wrong the attempt is good to make a trance track.. but it sounds just to easy.
My advice is..underline the main theme wtith some double layers to make it more rich sounding.
Fill up gaps in the song to make it more complete..But overall a good start.

roojrotc responds:

thanks for the input, and i am actually working on a refined version of this song as I speak ^_^

[Tranced Planet]

trance is One planet ! :D

Hey airprogessive..

This is the first time ive listened to your audio so im gonna listen carefully.
I have to say the beat is good not too much, and not too low.
Nice easy brought up synthesizer sound accordeon, wich keeps the track flowing.

A guitar string wich is best sounding with the Flute wich comes in later on !
This kind off trance is a relaxing kind in my point off view, wich doesn`t mean it
deserves an audience :D

Good work in changing the track, mabey a small vocal here and there would be nice.
But youre style has a good vibe to it .

[[DJZ] Bittersweet Synthony]

Hey ...zoysa... !

Well i dont know exactly wich song/track u mean with bittersweet symphony.
Is that from Plasibo-bitter end ? ..hmm i don`t know.

I just review it as a track of youre own.

I have to say the start is a bit strange..many things at the same time.
You are trying to create this flowing area..When this beat comes in it`s off balance.
I think u should have made it sound different in the set up.
When the soft tunes comes in this distortion goes away.. this part is Good !

Then piano track is really nice..good mixture off high and low base sounds.
After that the track starts too change..wich in this case is nicely done.

My advice is: watch out when making a Synhtesizer flow area.. the timing is everything !!!

Keep going..

DJ-Zoysa responds:

thanks man, i love hearing reviews that actually offer areas of improvement as well as compliments so it is much appreciated whatu said :D

yeh i will work on the flow, it does sound a bit off in places but thats what i get for working with 90bpm and trying to make it sound fast lol! a new song that i made yesterday has a lot more flow than this lawl! so yeh ill upload that one shortly ;D

thanks for ur compliments bout the piano, i love it as well xD and the original song is by The Verve, maybe youtube search "The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony" and ull hear the similarities!

thanks again

[[DJZ] Atmosphoria]

Strangly effective...

Hey zoysa...

U make real different music.. have not heard anything quite like it.
when i hear this it reminds me off game music.. some dark level art kind.
Starting from 2.00 min i think its starts Real nice..

This sounds just great...hmm i just think the Hihats whas a little too high sounded. But then this twirling sound come quite good together..
But i think it needs more Depth with some background Synthesizer too let
it sound more ..more..heavenly ; D

I don`t know why u choice not to use a drum in the end.

But overall a nice track , with some more work u can make your own style.

Greetz DJMontana

DJ-Zoysa responds:

i like you put it - strangely effective :DD

thanks for your great words about my music being different from others - i really am trying to create my own style and when people recognise that it makes me really happy ;DD if you want to check out another trance song in this style, check out Infinite Horizon. i'm also going to be uploading a new trance song i made soon, ill keep you posted on that one ;D

thank you for everything you said about it, yeh the hit-hats are a bit overpower to start with but i think they meld in nicely with everything after a while. about the background synth - yes i was thinking of that but i didn't want too much going on at once. i think with your songs you have so much depth in yours you're used to more synth to give it a larger-scale feeling but for this one i didn't want too much going on :)

hmmm i chose not to use drum in the end because in some songs i like to end with a melody and let that be the last thing people hear so they can appreciate the song for its melodies and not in drums (some songs i end with drums though) like infinite horizon ;)

thanks once again, i really appreciate this review ;DD *fingers crossed this makes i to top 5* :D

[{dj-N} The Beginning of Time]

DJ nate huh !

Hey man...

I see your name come up here and there..so i i thought check out youre stuff.
Sounds really good man, looks like u have enough people who see
you have talent.
This is a more light verse piano track..wich has that organ twitch like the
tracks back from the 90 `s .
The buildups are pretty good...but a bit short.
The track comes together just fine..but i think the background sythesizers could come up a bit more...

good work !

[Xx_House_Remix_xX]

This is pure techno !

Hey Haris..

Look at the difference 1 vote total different score!
Well u should have put this in the Techno subs not Trance.
But anyway i want to try and comment...

Im not much off a techno fan but some things sound pretty cool..
The effect mixed with the deep bass and drum.. that`s what is needed for a techno track.
But i would say.. make this track again.. but this time with a longer build up.
You jump too fast from one sound too anothter..

keep trying..

Greetz DJMontana

KingGame responds:

k thanks for hint and thanks for commenting but i made it like more to be house not techno but i will put it in that genre

[Energy 09]

damn !!!

hey man..

well damn..where did u get these effects !! Very nice...
Indeed like jacketman says very much energy..too bad u chance so fast in
the cords but thats ur choice.

Later on deep base sound+ high flute tone also very good ! u should check
track off mine ( electronic bitch)

Good JOb man

Greetz DJMontana

JacksonAlsop responds:

Thanks heaps man

[{DjF}Castles in the Sky(v2)]

wellll..........

Hey DJ Final..

Well i have to say... this track just starts off perfect.. I love Vocals !
Don`t know where u got them from..sounds abit like kate lessing.

But this is some real pro stuff...it`s a totall different style then the other track you made.
The Vocal lines just add perfect in the track so for that part its good.. i just think
it`s too bad you did not sracthed it in between the track.

But the synthesizer come up is also good...nice easy...multy layers comin up..
Sound good !
then the Build up...Real Nice.. That deep silence....Thats good !!

Keep it this up man !!!
