haaaaa the Highlands. nice 1 kareem. I'm going to scotland, on vacation, last two weeks of july, this summer. anyone from over there, let me here about it!!!I aint gonna skip the Highlands. the song then.....

begins quite direct, maybe try and construct the intro more. the whooa whooa sound, intro with that ( just suggestion). some of the high synth sounds sound bit lo quality the low bass in the background should be louder. the whole song should rise more. it stays to statically. try and use different eq settings on the synths and and terrors. or record some manipulations live if possible. you also need to variate in the breaks too I think. use more sound-kits or jungle loops. seems to me you got a good 50% song but you gotta hit it with feel, creativity and your own touch to make it special. my feel!!

cheers

EZ gonna do a running review on first time listen Tongue

Like the construction but the synth line was better once everyother bar, wouldn't feel so repeatetive.

There's a really high shaker that interfere's with my ears lol sounds a little too resonant

generally all the sounds seem like presets so i'm not going to into that. You'll probably know that you need to work on those.

I think generally it's a good sketch of a tune, maybe a few edits here or there would make it more interesting.

tune =3/5
soundz = 1/5

sorry if that sounds harsh I reckon with patients in making your soundz it could be so much better. Unfortunately it's hard for me to separate the tune from the sounds as is the sounds were better so would the tune.

Drums are a bit standard, but nice.

Sounds and melodies are weird, dunno... The hoover is quite nice though.

Dunno, strange stuff and mood, but not that intresting. Not really bad, just not very intresting.

2/5 for the track
2.5/5 for the sound

I'm with Surya on this one, good sound, good production, just not dancefloor oriented, and you have some really weird sounds in there.....but I like weird sounds!! Pleased But I also agree with Janverstichel, because I don't like that hoover at all. Sorry, just my opinion.

Good effort, and keep up the good work!! Bigup

i agree with surya that the drums are a bit standard, they just need a bit of perking up a bit, maybe mess around and try some different samples in one of your layers on your snares and choose one that fits in with the tune better. they sound a bit weak imo, have you compressed your drums at all? as for the rest of the tune, umm im a bit undecided about it to be honest, deffinately some wierd things goin on, i wouldnt say that i hate it yet i wouldnt say i like it
