New song, what do you think?

Let The Music Flow

Would any of you care to critique this piece?

I just recently experimented with making my own vocals, so forgive me if it's cheesey as HELL

By the way, my knowledge of actual genres is limited. What genre could this piece by labeled as? Just curious.

Oh wow, Chris, I had no idea you were into music production.

It sounds cool, its got a flowing, radiating atmospheric feel to it.

The vocals are fine :p

Very good job, the intro could use some work, like as in making the song "start" faster, but overall the song is cool.

It's great, even if the vocals are cheesy. ^ ^

As for genre, seems a bit like speed/trance music... but I wouldn't be able to give a definite genre to it.

[Rush More!]

Hey there, always nice to see a new face around here.

By and large, I'd say its not speedtrance at all. It lacks the distinct drumpattern and by and large, the speed to be called speedtrance. Closest thing I can think of off the top of my head is some of teranoids stuff. So I'd say at the very least it shows some NuStyle Gabba elements. Oh, and its very good. I'll post more comments on it later, but know (if you made this on fruity loops) I'd love to know what synths you used to make this and possible snag the fl.zip.

Not bad at all. Yeah, the vocals were a bit cheesy, but whatever. Personally, I think they actually needed to come through a little stronger. It's almost like you realized they were cheesy and tried to hide them a bit.

Still, an enjoyable track. I liked the energy of the instrumentals backing the main melody.

I'd throw this under the "epic trancecore" category. Has the high BPM and same trance feel, but the song sounds like it's a long, drawn out epic trance breakdown.

Yesh, I made this with FL 5.
I guess I'll talk to you later =o

It sounds to me like the whole song is a build-up. I would say it's Bemani-Trance. I don't know what that genre is really called. Maybe im the only one who feels the difference between real Music and Bemani Music...I dont know.

This isn't bad. Personally, I thought it was a little boring. As for genre, I couldn't tell you.

First off, good synth choice~ I like the feeling that this track gives off,
it's almost like a movie soundtrack score but TECHNO. Like i'm being
chased (sorry if that sounds wierd lol) and time is running out. The
kicks give me that feeling since it's not constant like your average tech song,
it's almost like a heartbeat.

As for the vocals, i didn't really hear what you were saying (it's 7am and
everyone is asleep) since i don't have the volume high.

Overall, good track~ Especially loved the portamentos near the end,
i need to use them more often myself ^_^

[patrickphan2]

teh synth is pretty cool, sounds 3xoscy. the kick kinda sucks though :/ i like your melodies. you are great. you should add some choir AHHS at the part with the vocals to brighten up your song.

Yeah, I've been told on a different forum that the composition is iffy because it's all build up. Not sure how to go about fixing it yet though.

The feeling you got is what I was going for ^^ Not necessarily of a chase scene, just of something full of action and cinematic.
What's a portamento?

I don't know what 2xoscy or AHHS are ^^;;

Portamento is the degree of smoothness in the transition from one note/sound to another ie. legato.

Ah, I see. Thanks for clearing that up ^^
Even though I'm a fairly good musician, I know next to nothing about actual music term...stuff.
