time for a review
them vocals at the start fit nice. but i would say that the drums in the intro sound a bit empty. that bass build up sounds nice man and the atmosphere there is real nice. ohhh tht build up rinsis out. the drop is hard n ruff thts wat i like to see. some of the elements in here sound phatt man. this is some good shit propa hard step as i say again the vocals are crisp. 2nd drop very nice, ur drums are good wel very good and jus the way they are set out is phatt. them hardocre kicks reali set the tune off.
tht TNT vocal could mabye do with a little bit of work to make em fit the mix a bit better. nice work cuttin them drums. the snare builds sound real good also. that filterd bass sounds just like it should.
4.44 drop is wel built up and dropped but the only thing i wud say about this track is it dosent flow mabye there is to many break ups or somthing. i dnt reali kno but i listend to the track when it was 70% complete and sinse then it has improved alot man. neways keep on producing...
Peace

Cool track with some major EQ problems. The bass part is seriously lacking except for them interrupting basskicks (which are sick by the way). The amen sounds like shit. verry muddy! Most of the time there's a bit too much stuff going on, which makes it messy. Clean it out a bit!

Alright man. Havent reviewd anything in a while. Been so fucking busy.4 gigs in the space of 10 days, and Im playing again in a couple of weeks too. But I like your other stuff so I thought Id get back on it. Nice epic intro, adds some nice mood right at the start. Has an almost film like quality from those lilting chords. I like the bass tone that comes in, nice and full. This sounds fat dude. I think the build up could be a little more obvious so that the drop really punches home. The mix is pretty shoddy, but I noticed that you already made a point about it so I wont add much, just that the drums are kinda muddy, not enough high end for my likeing, the snares dont crack enough. But the synths sound cool, possibly a little to much low frequencies in there. If you played this through a rig you'd probably loose a lot of the power because of the swampy low stuff. You should be able to sort this out pretty quickly. There are some cool drum edits going on and enough to keep the track interesting all the way through. I would have liked a more drastic change for the second section but that is just me. Another good one, you must spend most of your time writting tracks cause there nearly always a new one of yours, good on you!

The intro is nice, sphere is cool with them horns inthere, sounds movie-like indeed ...
1:00 is awesome, love that bass ...
Drop is pretty strange but nice, though I must say the drums after the drop sound less powerfull than the drums in the drop ... I don't sense allot of power inthere ...
Allot going on in this piece, and it doesn't sound good all the time cause of the eq-ing, I would be a bit calmer with the number of samples I use, asspacially when you don't know how to eq ... just like me
pretty fucked isn't it ...
Nothing special in the outro, not so bad ... just a lil' detail ...
I would just say the "power" of the song is not that good, just like peahead mansioned ...
Anyway, nice job, always digging this ...

i suck at eqing but im sure if you went though each sample and carefully boosted the high end it would sound alot better. Just try not to over do it

you must know i made the song with 2 compressors , but when i saved it and listened to it , it sounded to quiet for my opinion , but the compressor where needed to keep everything in control
so i put the song again in a flp file and started mastering ,
, then i used in my master channel:
-loudness vst to crank it all up
-fruity parametric EQ to set the high end a bit , but it couldnd be fully or it would sound twice as muddy as it sounds now.
-another compressor
-reverb (10%)
-stereovst to keep everything above 500hz in stereo

yeah the parametric vst from fruity is to limited ...
its just the fucking compressors who fuck my work up , but i need them to set the velocity as loud as possible
i need serious EQ help before i can improve any more

dude... youve got to simplify man! lol
i would never put reverb on the master channel.. if you really have to make sure its bright as possible. it might be the cause of some of the dull sound??
also i wouldnt have any eq on the master channel.. as tempting as it is. Best to split up your tune into as many chanels as possible and eq there.
do you mix down then load it back in? i wouldnt bother aye. Just get it right in the first place. It makes it way easier to make adjustment later too
ive spent ages fucking round with different compressors but they always fuck up my dynamics when i try to use em on the master channel, even multiband. Try the waves L2 limiter works a treat, gets it nice and loud and doesnt fuckup the sound at all.
i reckon if your gona try wierd combinations of effects and compressors best to do it on individual sounds or channels wif very similar sounds, it should be alot easier to hear if it actualy improves the sound.
thats my thoughts anyways, hope it helps

aight .,took me some time to come up with a review
reasons: damn this shit's tight , but damn the eq'ing is fucked
ur intro is quite nice
ur drop is fat the vocals do their thing
evrything in this prodution is fat as as mothafucka but damn that eq takes away lot's of the tracks good qualities
(altough i must say it sounds great on fucked up 2.1 speakers
)
anyhows my advice in ur future productions try watching the dB meter a bit more
bluvn gaaaaaaaaaan
