I made this one a year ago and i decided to remake it. This is the new version straight out from reason. Needs mastering yet but before that i want to know your opinions about it. So comments are appreciated EZ! 10-09-2008 19:41 Ketz Thinking outside the box...

The production sounds clean, well structured, good melodies and everything, but it's too nice and friendly imo. Check those slammers from TheAudioDemon to fully understand what I mean. They sound mean and dark without being hardstep. __ Check my soundcloud (exclusive tracks on there) 10-09-2008 20:45 warlok Somthing Inspireing Should Go Here.

The melodies work beautifully together. However, once it drops the tune looses impact because it lacks energy and some of the levels aren't quite right, imo. For instance, the lead synth is too dominant and the bass is too quiet. Yeah, like Battle said, the tune sounds like a soundtrack from a game (which isn't a bad thing). The EQing on the snare could do with some adjustment because it's too snappy and there's too much attack on it, imo. Overall, not a bad tune but coud be better.

The snare is a little weird sounding and the beat a little empty and not really slamming enough. I like the synth work tho, it has a lot of depth on it, on my cans anyway. You got some nice pad work in there aswell.. atmosphere is great, especially in the intro. Good job. __ DeCode & Roary Soundcloud 13-09-2008 02:41 Krisch Wicked Producer Registration Date: 19-02-2008 Posts: 326 Helpfulness rating:  Maybe I should to send this one to a few game developers Anyway im still working on it, i hope im going on the right track.
