For what this is, I actually am impressed. The part beginning at around 0:23 (quarter bass kicks) started me head bobbing, hah, but I feel like most of the sounds don't really fit together very well.

That said, I did read your description and realize that it's not a 'serious' submission. I love a good 'experiment' every now and then. :P Keep it up!

=============

Also, I really don't agree with you uploading all of your future songs as loops so that they auto-loop... it's annoying, and you shouldn't do that, lol.

ElectroLord99 responds:

too bad imma do that XD

but thanks, I know what you mean, experimental songs can be very nice sometimes :) this one is alright, i don't mind it

Not bad, actually. It really just needs to have some better mastering.
Your 'clap' is way, way too loud.

Koligen responds:

Thanks man.

Haters on Newground love to shit on the new bloods! LOL

This is quite well done. I've tended to be a fan of dubstep with a minimalist style like this piece has. What I mean by that is that there's not a large focus on crazy 'robots-having-sex' sounds, and more of a focus on rhythm and a tight bassline. That said, there is such a thing as too much minimalism: The song doesn't really change in anyway throughout. I'm also not sure I'd have labelled it as a 'loop'. =]

Sounds like you're on your way, dude. Nice work!

...Huh?

For what this is, I like the first part. It does a great job of conveying the attitude, of the piece, hah. I'm just not sure about the second part (beginning at 0:30). There doesn't seem to be any kind of transition at all to the second part, and none of the energy of the beginning is carried over at all.

Just something to think about.

This was a nice surprise, I actually enjoyed this a lot.

The track progresses very well, and by the end, I was smiling.

Nice work!

Thank you for taking the time to leave me a review! I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

Not bad, but needs some work.

Your drum beat was pretty good, but it's a pretty standard beat to Dubstep, so that's not particularly extraordinary. You did a good job of filling out the track with other sounds, however, I found the track quite discordant up until around 1:23. I like the new synth that came in after that point, but I think that 'melody' it carries could have been fleshed out a bit with some more, different sounds. I also don't understand the ending AT ALL. I think you should revisit it and see if you can come up with something a little better. Even just filling it out a bit with a fading synth or something would improve it I think.

All in all, a pretty good effort, keep it up. =]

ElectroLord99 responds:

The idea of the intro and outro was to interpret a kinda... super technology based journey through space. yeh... don't really know how to explain it tho haha :) .. :(

Decent!

This is much better than I was hoping for. It loops amazingly as well. Good work!

Smooth!

Hey! Since you were so nice on my review, I thought I'd return the favour!

This is truly the definition of a good cover. The song has been modified enough to sound distinctly your own, but still retain that nostalgic feel. Your work on the Guitar is excellent, and the recording is indeed top-notch!

You did an excellent job keeping the same laid-back feel of the original piece, maybe an even better one, at that! The piece flows really well, and the mastering is outstanding!

Great work!

Jonah-B responds:

Thanks man! I'm glad you liked it! :)

Epic.

Really enjoyed this piece. The mastering could have been a teenie better I think (the lower frequencies could have been brought out slightly more, but perhaps it was intended this way), but other than that, excellent work!

~Cheers

montehawks responds:

Yea, I'm not one that really knows how to do anything with mastering, but other than that I think the piece came out really well.

Thank you for your review.

Harsh!

First thing I need to say is: Good work!

I really enjoyed this piece but there are a few things I think could be improved in the future. Your wobbles were powerful, but a bit too harsh in my opinion. If this song had been given a bit more flow, it would have been PERFECT. Your drops need some work; as they are they don't have enough OOMPH, if you know what I mean.

That said, this is a great piece of work, which I am now downloading. :)

Cheers!
