No.

Just a quick question...do you know what a time signature is? Ok, so are you aware that Für Elise is written with three beats per measure? And your drums are going four beats per measure? You mutilated the entire feel of the song. Not to mention that this causes the instruments to desync themselves and then come back into sync briefly every 12 measures.

Please, stay away from classics unless you're really THAT good. It's a common mistake that people make. Why mess with perfection?

Other than that, I suppose it's a novel idea, which warrants a 1. So keep practicing.

ganon95 responds:

i have no idea what a time signature is

More practice please...

Reasons why:
1) Default kick & clap. Woohoo.
2) Total of ONE non-percussive voice. And it just so happens to be the standard cheesy "phat" synth.

TDpro responds:

Yea offcourse i need more practice this is my second song i putted on newgrounds!

What?

I sure don't envy the kind of love you feel if that's what it sounds like. Sorry, but I think you should have put a little (or a lot) more effort into this song.

Adamaja456 responds:

this was like the 2nd song i ever made. And i had no idea what i was doing. Thats why there are only 3 different sounds haha

Good start!

You're definately good with glitching, so you've accomplished what you set out for. The actual melody of the piano is pretty bad, but I understand that it's not the focus of the song. So once you put that beat with a crunchy bass or some synths you'll have yourself a real nice glitch piece.

I'd like to see this again but with focus on the other elements since you've got the percussion down. Good luck!

LLAAPPSSEE responds:

Thank you. I'm glad you think so. Yeah, the melody isnt so great. Thats alright, i was just really starting to figure out glitching things up with this song. This was one of my first big attempts at making something wild like this. As i said in the comments, this is an older song, so please check out some of my other stuff! I recommend "Moonlight Walking Through Misty Air" !

Thank you for your review.

Nice

Good stuff, keep it coming.

To the guy before me: real DnB IS repetitive. You're lucky if there are more than two beats in a song. Listen to the pros and you'll know what I'm talking about. Part of the greatness of the DnB genre is trying to make it sound good with such little room to work (because it is a relatively confined genre).

I think you've done an excellent job with it. It beats some of the pro songs I listen to, which is saying something. Not long enough, though.

DomesticTerrorist responds:

Awesome, thanks! Yeah pro dnb is pretty repetitive, but it's driving and hard n shit... like Pendulum :D

Thanks for the compliment and review, I'll be finishing this one up this week!

Whoa

Nice, but I have one word for you:

COMPRESSOR!!!

Figure out what it is, and when you do, redo this song using it.

Striker028 responds:

lol well since i'm too lazy to go look for one, i'm just gonna guess that you thought it was either too loud or staticky, and i wish i'd thought of that b4 submitting it to the portal. anyways, i'll remember next time.

Why a Collab?

I'm not sure what Maestro did for this song, but I have a good idea, since I've listened to so many of your songs and know your style.

Anyway I think Maestro was responsible for the drums and cymbal rolls, etc, correct? If you ask me, he/she completely ruined it. The cheap sounding drums with terrible timing and unbearable velocity shifting, as well as mind-blowingly awkward cymbal rolls that didn't even finish, just left off as though it were some cheap techno song.

Remove everything Maestro did, and you will be left with another great masterpiece of yours.

MilkMan-Dan responds:

Maestro was actually responsible for the entire middle of the piece... and the strings and some of the percussion at the end... yes the cymbal rolls were his... but the drums were mine :p.

If there is anything wrong with this piece... it's both of our silly faults.

Thanks for the review none the less...

Ownage.

Nice!

What program is this? I must have it. I can't do stuff like this with FL yet and I've been at it for 2 years (not saying I can't best it, just that I can't get some of the effects lol).

Keep it up.

Creamy-T responds:

reason. i'm gonna have to say i like it way way better than FL. anything i made before veria is FL...it's just not the same. then again, maybe i just never figured it out.

thanks for the review

Yay!

Yay! After sifting through the crap I've finally found something good.

Thanks.

Very good, nothing else to say really. Like to see more like this (but still original). Oh, and one thing that I thought you did a particularly good job on was the bass. It's not often you get to hear a descent bass run in a song anymore. Drums could use a little more diversity, though (toms).

Creamy-T responds:

thanks a lot! it's hard to find something original to do with electronic music (at least it is for me), and i'm glad it sounds that way to you.

i agree about the drums - something about this song just seemed unfinished in general. i couldn't quite pull enough drum stuff together for it to really mesh well unfortunately, but i liked the parts too much not to upload it.

Finally

Boy Newgrounds is getting more and more popular, and we're getting more and more CRAP MUSIC. I mean the real shit that clutters the top of the charts ranked at 5.

It's nice to see something with some effort in it for once!

Thank you!
