Great track!

Well executed, a little distortion here and there, but very well done. I got a little bored after awhile. I think it would help if the "melody" changed up, you know break it into verse, chorus, break.
Anyway, very original, i liked it.

Love the melody line, great use of sounds. This is a great track. I think it might have gotten repetetive if it had been longer but it worked well at 2 mins.
Good job, i look forward to your future work.

Nice changes and beat. I like the verby piano sound, although in genreral i found the track somewhat repetative and disonent.
Keep it up!

Nicely done. The elements come together well in this track. I particularly like the strings.
I think you're right about the beginning being weaker. The song is good enough that it's probably be worth it to go back and rework the begining.
Looking forward to yer future tracks.

As always GB, your guitar playing is steller. This track just rips! I agree with Crazy_Train, i'd love to see some bass and vocals on this.
Your songs are starting to feel more fleshed out to me too. You're just getting better and better.
I am not worthy, i am not worthy!

It's a good start. You've got lots of changes and some melodic ideas going on, but there wasn't really anything compelling about the song for me.
I look forward to your next one.

I know what your talking about. Once I loaded this song up on the page, I realized that some of the loops do not fit in correctly (like the random drum beat in the begining.)
I can tell you that my next one will be the right volume (heh) and alot more complex!

The drums sound like drum machine presets to me. Nothing really happens in the track, it's just some repetitious drums.
Also, i think Drum -n- Bass is the opposite of what this track is. It doesn't contain any of the key trademarks of DnB and it's at about half the tempo of any DnB track.
Keep experimenting. Play with some bass modules, create melodies, churn out a bunch of tracks and then upload the 15th one you make.

Thanks for the advice, by the way I wish it was drup presets however using Acoustica Beatcraft means that I have to make every frickin sound. Even the drum sound is created experimenting with a single note and changing it's pitch and path.

I initially loved that crazy melody loop you have going, but i got kinda bored with it. You add other sounds but it think i kept waiting for it to change up or break bad or something. I like the drop out in the middle.
Love the sounds, would like to see a little more variety.
Author's Response:
Yeah, this is a demo edit... so, the full version is probably going to be layered much more diversely. I made it too quick to realize the potential in some areas. I do feel there's more to be done on this.
Thanks for the review! :)
