You sure know how to set ambience. The bassline that was fading in made me get so pumped. It was awesome. The drums and bongos in the beginning were awesome as they led through the build up. You really really outdid yourself this time. The way the kick reverberated in my headphones was amazing. If you added a little bit sharper percussion to this, it'd be a freaking masterpiece.
You are one of my favorite artists.

After a childhood of ATB and Astral Projection, ambience trance runs through me... except this is more DNB.
Lots of good commentary to reflect upon. I'll be sure to keep in mind the sharpness of the percussion. Keep in mind the shitty bitrate this thing has. I'm not very good at mastering, either, so this tune probably makes the ears bleed at a much lower volume then most songs :)
Great to be ranked so high in your artistic preference hierarchy!

Seriously. I could listen to this one for hours. And I actually did, when we had that huge chat with everyone. Haha, everyone was listening to it simultaneously, remember? Well, on to the review.
The bells in the intro were beautiful. The harmony of the arps really set an intruiging atmosphere. The Hammond house bass was excellent as well. It could have stood being a little bit more loud though, this needed a tad bit more low end. That high end sizzle that changed bars sounded alright, it may have been a little bit too sharp on the ears.
The acid segement was awesome, light, chirpy, and just about the right length. I loved it.
Now, I just can't get over those bells, they are too perfect. Did you cheat? Haha. I can't wait to get my hands on Reason 3.0 so I can do some awesome stuff like this. You really outdid yourself on this one, Milosz. I love it.
Keep up the amazing work, you are really underrated on these parts. I don't think getting rid of SonicEclipse was a good idea... Whatever. You must have had some good reasoning behind it.
<3 this track man. Awesome job.

That was a cool chat. Then I brought my friend Kaz in and it turned into a conversation about the dance and who's bringing the liquid substances.
Thanks a mil' on the bells, it's a simple Ring Mod on waveform 12, which has harmonics that are louder than the note itself :) Of course I put some mad delay on there, too.
It took me a while to figure out what you meant by "change bars", in reference to the high-end sizzle. It's the type of sound that's annoying half the time and spectacular the other.
The acid segment took a really long time to perfect, I ended up creating my own synthesizer using the Combinator tool. But it's perfect now and Milosz happy.
Thanks again man, a good review to kick this song off :) I'll be sure to leave you one, too.

P.S.: I didn't have any reasoning at all behind deleting SonicEclipse. It just wasn't perfect enough.

I thought this was a remix of one of my songs or something, but it's just a name coincidence :(

"Awesome job on this one, KFNX."
The only thing about that I would change is that one light arp that happens on ever 8 beats or so in the intro. It's a major chord, and the rest is minor... It throws off the ambience just a little bit. The three step change was short and sweet, I love this kind of stuff. The acid synths were also really awesome, they fit in with that bubbly fast beat well. Again, awesome job!
Your fan, -API-

This sounds very B0UNC3y. Good job on the threestep, although it didn't quite fit in along with the rest of the track. It also needed some sort of mega lead. but anyway, awesome job, you outdid yourself on this one ;)

You did a damn good job on this, Karbon. I loved the kickdrum leading into the vocal clip in the intro, it sounded really good. Not quite to sure about how that collaboration is going, there's too little to work off of... We need to give it a lot more thought.
anyways, sexcellent track, awesome job.

I liked this a lot, man. The percussion was nice and crisp. They needed much more variation though, in my opinion. I liked that melody. Sounds really neat. I love arps.
-API-
p.s. WHY DIDN'T YOU KEEP MY LOOP :' (
Author's Response:
That really makes me happy it sounds like J's old stuff.....:)
And i still have your loop, i'm using it in Blinding Ashes....remember?
Btw Blinding Ashes is my next song. But you already know that ;)
Thanks buddeh
