I like how you bring the energy right down in the track then Build it back up again. Good use of dynamics, makes the track feel like a journey. Now im no expert on how orchestra tracks are mixed but it did sound ok to me but i felt the high pitched instrument at around 5.00 is too loud . A couple of other issues, one being that its too long ..If your gonna make something this long imo you need some different themes going on to keep the listener interested. Like something that contrasts to what you already have, whether it be a modulation or a change in direction.
It is pretty cheesey which is fine if you go in for that :) 4/5

Thanks for your review! I'm going to go fix those issues now. =D

I like the track man, would be cool to collab with you over the melodic/dubstep genres.

You did alright there.

Nice chilled sounds, and happy birthday for the other day.

love it :)

AetherNG responds:

love you :)

Sounds cool man, not bad for a first go in a new daw. Dont forget famitracker though, good fun.

Hotline miami is awesome i like all the music in that game and good job on this.

Nicely done, i havent heard the orginal so i dont how accurate it is but it does sound good. Did you make this in a tracker?

EliteFerrex responds:

This track is made via by-ear composition in FL Studio 10, using magical8bit and FamiSynth II for the 8-bit SFX.

Sounds cool man, this kind of frantic sounding track would really suit a party game/button basher sort of thing. Did you make the kick in magical 8-bit too?

Flaytic responds:

Yeah, the kick was made in magical8bitplug by simply using negative sweep stitch with considerably low sweep time.

I like the effects going on and the dark techy mood. One thing i noticed is that its quite empty sounding, You could remedy this by maybe layering up on your lead sounds a bit. The square wave lead can be effective but it also needs some garnish. Consider layering it with another wave form and perhaps have some modulation on the pitch (vibrato) might be a nice touch.
If you dont fancy that some nice warping bass sounds that fit around your kick and snare might do the trick. Overall good job.

SoTJake responds:

Yeah the lead was just a lead that i recycled from another, much simpler track, where the lead should sound pretty bold and simple. After your comment I experimented a bit with that lead and the endresult would have sounded similar but as you already stated, a bit more "filling". I, however, liked it more this way, so I think that is a thing of taste. But yeah, I think a bit more variety would help.
