Great build up, awesome synths. I'd say the strong point of the song is the drums and sidechaining/gating of the instruments. Then again, the melody/chord progressions are really nice as well. PIANO SOLO, WUT.
Gaah, too many things to compliment you on >_<...
You should try sending a demo cd to a trance label, I'm sure they would love this. (that is my opinion anyway... Keep up the awesome work!)

You did a good job with the instruments (really good for using 3 x osc), the build up worked well. Only things I think you could improve on are the melodies repetitive nature and "genericness". Other than that, nice work!

Lol Rig, you original sunnovabitch. Its been a while since I heard the fl "preset" vocals used in a good piece of music. Nice job with the dance music too - your really getting good at it (almost scary... I thought I was the winnipeg newgrounds trance guy.. lol) Anyway, keep up the good music, hope to hear more soon.

Eh, Sytrus presets. Standard chord progression. I've heard better - but not completely un-original. Keep it up :D
-Shenkhar
Author's Response:
Well, if you think about it, Sytrus presets sound pretty cool. Also, yeah, it is a very well-used chord progression, but this one is way better. XD Thanks for the review.

I love ambient, progressive trance - especially when it has a good chord progression/melody. Nice work on this one

This is a very decent piece - loops perfectly. Good job with the progression.
Keep it up :D

Hmm, I read your thread complaining about your score... I can't say it deserves a low score - but its not perfect either (what is anyway..) This first thing that pops out at me is that the track is clipping, your master volume is too high (it also needs to be mastered a bit diffrently to sound good IMHO). Other than that it is fine.
Try not to base your perception of how other people view your work on your score, but on reviews/review scores. Zero blamming is a problem in the audio portal, just like the flash portal.

Hey, cool that you responded man!
I sure know that it's not perfect, I haven't noticed any clipping though. But my soundcard is a bit messed up so I might not hear the song the way I am supposed to. You said the mastering could be done differently. I've been experimenting with mastering lately, do you have any advice for me? I take it that you also use Fruity Loops for your songs.
Thanks for your honest and good response mate :)

"If your friends don't dance..."
The tune itself is great, but its a bit too "fat" as another person has said. The power is all in the bass, which is good for somethings, but you are lacking the midbands and highband sparkle that is really needed for dance music. No doubt that it kick, but It just needs a bit of eq'ing/compression on the lowbands.
