Haggard was right the intro is a bit too long although its nice and very melodic. And when the drums to drop in #i don't think they really suit the rest of the track, theyre a bit too light but I suppose it works out in a weird sort of way.
The outro is good too, just work on the long intro to make it more intersting ad maybe add mre depth to the percussion
good song though, i liked it, would be good in a movie or a game

Like a lot of songs I make, I'll look back, read the reviews, and pick out a ton of things that I should improve when I remake the song. And almost every single time, I won't remake it. It's been a while since I've listened to this song, myself, and I've gotta say, I agree with you, putting a heavier kick in there, and making it overall more "punchy" would really give the song an extra bite. I feel like I should vary things up a bit more, but as I've found many times before, I'll have a great tune at my fingertips, but I'm at a loss as to how I can develop it. I'll repeat, add drums and all the same old same old, I think it's fairly clear by now, I can make a "good" track nowdays without putting myself under too much stress, but it'll take a lot more time and effort before I could muster up something "outstanding" and much less flawed.
Thanks for the review.

reminds me of that song my massive attack that was used to advertise assassins creed. the strings get a bit loud and boring after a while, maybe you should change their pitch or something further into the song.
all the other instruments were good and the drum rolls work well in a bizarre kind of way.
the ending is a bit abrupt too but its allright
good work

there are a lot of changes in instruments and that but something about the melody feels weird, im not sure how to explain, but yeah work on it and it could become better.
good work

the guitar sounded good but i dont the drums really fit in the with the track. alltogether it sounds like a load of stuff thrown together.
the drums should be quieter too if the track is going to be focused on the guitaar as they make it harder to hear.
i think you should remake this from a different perspective.

I think so too, I plan on adding spanish-sounding guitars to an electronic song (probably House or Trance)
Thanks for the review.

all the flashing colours in the video thing really suit it. i like the "Go" in it aswell, gives it some character.
i like the wayy it slows down and gets quiter only to back to being loud and brash. a nice piece of audio that could pass in a club

quite a weird audio, there were a lot of changes in layers but not really tempo which i ok i guess.
this piece is also quite atmospheric and for me sets a weird scene i cant really describe but well donefor doing so i guess
nice work

at te beginning i was like wtf this isnt mortal kombat but then it started and i was feling all nostalgic. ive always loved the music in MK so i enjoyed this.
i feel i could have been a bit more hectic with more layers though. although the ending was very nice an i liked thes simple, yet effective drums.

but you should do something more with it. mybe record a longer song with sombody singing over it as its a very R&B sound.
I kind of like the highpitch sounds aswell. however its only a small loop so i cant give you a very high score but i think 7 is fair as it is very clean and nice

this song reall sets a mood for me, espcially at the beginning. I really synth soundfaing in and out too, it remind the listener that theyre still listenng to a techno based track.
an its not just a slight change of tempo when he drop comes, its a completely different beat, which i like but that synth sound remains which is cool. because something has got to keep a link to the beginning of the song.
but it gets a bit boring after a while. the ending is good but it takes too long to get there.
its still a really good, atmospheric track wtih quite a good name too

Thanks. I'm glad you liked it. I suppose the length issue is somewhat of a problem if you're critiquing the track, but if you press play and just sit back and relax I don't think it'd be too bad, which is kind of what its purpose will be in the end.
