RoBKTA Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I thought Chemical Plant Zone is a very dangerous and unwelcoming place. So I took it over and turned it into a Lounge Zone HEAR IT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinaleCadence Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Good remix! I shall attempt some constructive criticism here. I loved it once the main theme kicked in fully. But at the same time at that point it almost felt to close to the original. I liked the Intro to the song, maybe you could combine the intro with the melody somehow? Also the breaks you put in between the main melody work Pretty well. I wouldn't change those to much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Williamson Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Ok, so this is actually really cool. The snare/clap is compressed out of the mix a little much so I'm not getting much of that. Also, I feel like there could generally be a bit more bass in the mix. A bit more in the low end. That bass is pretty freaking awesome. My one other critique is that at 1:55 and then again at 2:56 and so forth, that section with the ¼ note hits should probably some how be made a lot punchier. Maybe add in more punchy instruments there to really make that hit nice and punchy. Everything else about this is really sexy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I agree with G-Mixer that the clap is buried. Not sure why though, as this sounds four-on-the-floor to me, so the sidechaining from the kick should have helped. Bring up the clap volume at least 2 dB more so we can hear it. =P Good bass. Sounds kind of Genesis-like. At 1:24, the lead sounds a bit dry. Maybe it only has delay. It can be upfront even with reverb, just sayin'. The lead at 1:53 (and so on) sounds a bit distracting since it's so loud and dry on the left. That lead could come down a bit each time it comes in. Also, the drums sound repetitive by 2:22. Maybe some more drum fills could help make it seem less repetitive. By 2:25, I'm wanting the lead to change up the melodic interpretation, which is quite conservative. It hasn't changed. By 2:52, it just feels like there's a lot of copy+paste. The dropoff at 2:57 sounds rather lifeless with just plain sustains. It's like people with Squidward faces when they sing something happy. I also agree that the hits at 1:55 and 2:56 and so on could be punchier. Compression and tightness is something you could try. And uh... fade-out ending. Wat. So basically, some repetition, lead dryness, and lead expressiveness issues. Some levels should also be fixed. Maybe add an ending too.

Garrett Williamson Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 And uh... fade-out ending. Wat. I don't have an issue with the fade-out ending. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
