Not bad

I like the lead synth you used. The melody is a bit repetitive, but not bad for only a few days of making music.

I wouldn't term this Funk though, this I believe would belong in the Techno category. Nice work, so far, though I think your kick should have come in sooner, like say at the 30 second mark or so, but that's my own personal style. Also, an off-beat/kick bassline might add a little bit more flavor to the overall track, but that's something to experiment and play with for a new track anyway.

Keep working at it, this is a great beginning effort!

Rellor responds:

Thank you and I just changed this song 2 techno. I put it down as funk because I couldn't find techno in the genre box at first.

Whoah!!!

Okay, so like others have said, this is perfect for a space battle scenario. I actually want to use this for an EVE Online PVP video.

I would really like to see what you could do with Black Sun Empire, remixing some of their songs. This is epic, ill, and just eargasms all over the place.

ZOMG

Dude, seriously I cant wait to get home and play this song in Audiosurf!

DJ-Babokon responds:

Cool! That's pretty awesome.

OMG!!

YOU'RE ON FIRE!!

I gotta use this next time I get into a dog-fight in a flight sim or something!

rtnario responds:

AH GOD *extinguishes self*

Thanks, glad you liked it, and your flight sim + this as BGM idea sounds interesting. :D

Sounds good

I like the idea, however you need to take your high notes, which I believe are piano keys and turn the volume down on them just a little. They are overpowering everything else. Music is built dynamically from the bass, like a pyramid. The high notes should not overpower everything else. Plus, their volume makes them painful to the ears when listening to this track loudly.

Otherwise, very good job! So far that's the only thing I would tweak.

OPQC responds:

thanks for the good comment of the instruments. i'll try to fix them when i finish this up.

Good start

I cant wait to see what the rest of it turns out like. Right now its simple with only a single drum track and synth line. I think this could be woven into something much more.

Excellent initial concept for a track, though it is a little 'unrested'. There's no real pause to any section of the melody. The notes have almost a legato flow into one another.

djresset responds:

thanks

Good!

9/10 because while this song is epic, the reverb on the undertone has gotten way out of hand and leaves an underlying layer of white noise essentially.

Other than that, Bravo!

Not bad

This particular song is taken from the Basshunter FL Studio tutorial on Youtube. I know, I've downloaded it myself and gone through the tutorial.

For a first piece, this isn't bad. However, I would suggest playing around with the synths more. Also if you look around you can download extra VST's and plugins like Nexus, Vanguard, V-station and others. This will give you a much wider selection of pre-made synths, and also I would encourage you to play with the parameters to program your own synths.

A little bit of reverb on your synths in the FX rack will help, as they currently seem blocky or chunky. The bassline is alright. The undertone could be a little smoother, and the lead I would suggest trying something like Sytrus to find a good lead. As for your drums you have, they are alright, but a little bit of effects, or searching around for more drum samples will help get a better quality of drum.

Overall, this is a good practice piece. I would recommend taking the ideas in the melody and undertones and try to expand on them before calling it a real remix. I hope this is some help. Feel free to PM me if you would like to talk more. I'm always glad to help.

RasmusiBoy responds:

Wow, many thanks for all that info!

Okay

I like it, but not enough to download it. Really it sounds tired to me though, and as such it makes me feel tired.

Needs work

The idea is good. Your 'bass' needs to be lowered an octave or more in the piano roll to be effective for bass, at least if this is going to be a DnB track. There weren't quite enough breaks in the drumline either. I recommend some lower nasty bass like the 3XOsc preset Nasty, or maybe some hoover from the 3Xosc or Sytrus, if using FL Studio

Charlie responds:

I was just messing around, it took about 30 mins in total.
