I was expecting to see way too many classical/orchestral pieces in this contest, but this was a nice breath of fresh air :) This piece really stands out to me from the submissions so far.

Granted, it's not very powerful but it's very smooth, and that counts for something. It has a great flow and atmosphere as well as a terrific arrangement and instruments to compliment the lyrics.

Great work! good luck in getting through to the next round!

Great work dude! That rev up at the start makes for a nice boost for the kick in! :D

ErikKaufman responds:

Haha, thank you! :D

Oh hell yeah!!!!!! Man I'e waited SO long for you to put this up! perfect man! even without the vocals :D

Waterflame responds:

yay, thanks man :D:D <3

Man the way you took that wabby tractor sample and blended it into the beat as you introduced was really well presented! I envy you beat skilllzlzllzlz

Strange how small song about baby ninjas can evolve into something so grand with better meaning. Great work man the overhaul turned out fantastic :D

Waterflame responds:

haha i know right? :D thanks man! them challenges always makes for great results!

Oh man nice beat and stuttering synth. Their movement is so synchronised it's like the synth is a part of a beat (unless those are blip sample :P) but very glitch like.

Once Thing I would suggest Is finding your self a harder kick and snare. The ones you have at the moment are a little weak and house has a very phumpy drive mainly due to hard kick and snare hits. You could probably accomplish this by layering more than one kick or snare and pitching them accordingly to make one power full kick/snare.

Another thing you should try experimenting with side chaining. I don't know how you would pull it off with fruity loops but there'll probably be a tutorial on youtube showing how. But it's a technique commonly used in house music and it'll really help give your basses a little more PHUMP!

But nonetheless great work man! you've improved a lot since I last heard you.

AeronMusic responds:

Thanks man!! :D Yeah, the snear is weak, but the kick... I don't think so? Also, I know how to ad sidechaining in FL Studio and this sidechaining has been added to one of my another songs, called: Death Awaits. I know I could ad more things in this song and I would if I could open the FLP file :'( But I can't anymore after exporting the file to MP3. And yeah, I am improving my composing style and it's getting more fun. Thanks again ;D

Love it :D I told you I wish I could work vocals that well! soooo good keep it up! you're on a roll :D

Oh neat! I like that you're adding this as a swing-bit series thing and you're right it works well in that aspect! :D great work man! nice variation of sequences so it never goes dry but also has a nice blend of different genres to keep it engaging :D again awesome work man!

!! I really like this man :D this is my kind of jingle! very waterflame-esque. though the little jumpy rhythm synth you have in the back at the intro feels kinda off but that's because it originally meant for a 1/3 or 3/4 time sig. So it just sounds out of place when running along side a 4/4 beat.

Also I feel the drums could be mixed a little better... the kick and some snares and especially that hardstyle section feels a little over whelming in my opinion.

But still very nice work I look forward to more :D

ErikKaufman responds:

Thank you man! I consider your opinion about drums. See you =D

Not bad at all! This had some brilliant melodies aswell as some well mixed and produced sounds.

My criticism would be try to layer them more around the intro like you did at the 1:20 mark and add a more consistent bassline.

but not bad man I really like this! especially 2:18, real pretty.

xmichaxb7 responds:

thanks! and I love your songs too... ^^
You better to download this song again. Because yesterday i reuploaded the "Mastered". I Just fixed where the sound should came from. Like left or right speaker.
