not bad

it doesn't sound housey enough, atm it sounds unmastered:

That lead saw that plays on a high C note constantly can get annoying because it's the only thing playing and it kind of cuts at the ears, choose a different instrument for that please. Fix the drums too because I can't hear the kick drum and the hat and clap seem abit presety. Also, try to add more stuff to go in the background, like maybe another bassline instrument/saw playing on the same melody as the current one and some background melodies, maybe an arp, maybe a pad in the background lol.

Although I do have to give you props for that rising pad effect @ 0:15 to 0:22, that was pretty cool. I hope I didn't batter you too much 0_o

All in all, I can definitely see you getting better at making house music; just keep working at it and you'll get better :),
in fact I made my first one afew days ago. Would you mind checking that one out please? It's called "Rainy Day", just go to my userpage and it will be there.
Thankyou

Nice review, it's ok. :)

pretty good

Try to master your volumes abit better because it seems though as if the song itself is too loud and the bass or kick drum is taking up all of the volume and badly/messily sidechaining the lead saw. In the 2nd half of the song, your kick drum is flat, and fix that up too.

Although I gotta give you props for the melodies and instrument choice. the arp you added in the last quarter was a good choice.

This is just my two cents for you, you have potential with music and I can see you getting better at this. Keep it up :)

P.S. Can you check out one of my newest songs? I make dance/trance/techno and recently a house song. Thankyou

legit

yo dude you gotta finish this, you have a great singing voice and I constantly listened to lets play pirates.
Have you ever considered going on itunes? make more songs with singing and words like lets play pirates and relapse and you'll be the next basshunter.

P.S. Would you mind checking out one of my newest songs? I make mainly dance/trance/techno and just afew days ago a house song. thank you

good luck getting famous (although not that you'll be needing it)
:) XD

It is finished, and it is on iTunes as well as Spotify.

Thanks for the kind words!

Original

The beat was amazing and the vocals just make it funny. I can see someone using this in a 1.5/5 rating animation and everyone rating it 10/10 because it was so amazing. I just love the vocals.

missing one thing

All it needs now is some bass and it will be complete.

Everything else is great, the melody arrangements and the feel from the song, all good.

rating says all

I was getting ready to look for some constructive criticism but I guess I have none cause I couldn't find any; the drums, instruments, and vocal slicing were all cool. So I guess it's nuff said.

haha thnx :), glad ur back

not ambient

Good job for your like 3rd song, but this is in the wrong genre; it's primarily ....drumNbass?...techno?.. I'd put it in dNb if I were you lol.

Anyway those effects you used were really cool as well as the melodies being really good, but try to master it better so that I can hear the guitar sounding thing because the bass seems to be taking up the whole volume and bumming out your other instruments.

Now here's something extra; not saying you have to, but if you can, complexify (is that even a word 0_o) your drum beat abit more with maybe different samples so it sounds more dnb-ey-ey-ey..ish...-like.
~OR~
if you're aiming for the ambient "relaxing" feel, slow down the drums to half speed or just take them away completely.

That may seem like alot of concrit (constructive criticism) but this is just me nitpicking and finding out small things. Other than that, your song is good.

Keep it up! ~DjDO~

good genre mix

well done, the strong kick drum and less than 140 BPM tempo as well as the sidechaining on the padsaw makes it house, the melodies and the padsaw it self make it trance, and the way the melodies sound.
One thing, the sidechained whoosh at the end (2:52) goes kinda offbeat as you get towards the last beat of the song (most noticable @ 2:54).
And that's my two cents for you. Keep it up, this song has potential to become something great.

5/5
9/10

Hey can you please check out my first house song? I would like some concrit from you also. Thankyou :)

kirja100 responds:

Thank you mate!!!!
I'm very glad :)
Ofcourse I'll check!

very original

yo dude it's a good dnb song except try to unfilter your drums sometimes and also sometimes let them run the full 4 beat measure. That's about it.
other than that, everything else is good.
9 / 10
4.5 / 5 rounds to 5 / 5

Stroberider responds:

Gotcha! Yeah, this piece was a complete nightmare at times when it came closer to the post production because of all the clashing sounds and different leveling of frequencies while maintaining a good enough modulation. Thanks, buddy! And thanks for the nice constructive criticism...always needed!

this song makes me sad

The way the melodies are sorta just make me feel nostalgic for someone and it does give off the "missing you" feel. I think that's what got this song to the top weekly 5 instead of the composition of the song, although the composition of this is quite professional indeed.

Keep it up!

I'm currently a music producer, and a future club/party/rave/what ever DJ.
