Deadmau5 would be so proud. Good job!

Really nice job, it was probably the best hardstyle I've seen on Newgrounds in a long time! That being said, I feel like there was lots of room for improvement, especially on the mixing.

Hardstyle is all about their punchy distorted kicks, and in this I could barely even tell that there was a kick. For hardstyle this is a HUGE no-no. It was so swamped by all the other elements that it never broke through the mix the way it should have. Try putting a highpass filter and cutting the bass from some of your saws and other mid-range elements to let the kick shine through a bit.

Mixing was the main issue I had with this song, you can work on your sound design and everything else of course, and that will just take time, so don't feel bad on that. Your composition was very good, and basically all the different elements you added felt like they fit well with the track. You have a bit to work on, but with time you could be very, very good. Good luck!

Wow, you've been making music for five years? Your sound design and composition are quite poor for someone who's been doing it for so long(not meaning to be harsh here, just trying to help). I think the best thing for you is to watch tutorials on youtube. There are tons out there that can go into way better detail than I can while writing this review(I'd recommend SeamlessR, he covers tons of topics).

I also recommend listening to music. Not just listening, but listening constructively. Find exactly what sounds are in a song, and where. Lay down a song you like in your DAW, and find where new things are added, and how long they last. Just really listen to what songs you like sound like, and really try and replicate those sounds.

Sorry if I sound a bit mean, I honestly am trying to give good feedback. If you have any questions about specific things, message me, and I can try to help.

NeuroPyrox responds:

Yeah, only been doing music in a DAW for less than a year. Most of my experience is with writing music on paper. So sound design isn't exactly my forte. I'll definantly see some tutorials on YouTube like you said. As for listening and replicating, I started doing that a few weeks ago.

It's completely fine that your feedback is negative. I actually prefer it over everyone saying "good job" because that's useless feedback. Thx

Wow! Usually I have a small complaint with your sound design or mixing, but this was perfect! This may be one of the cleanest sounding tracks on Newgrounds. Great job!

Jumper responds:

Thanks! I actually learned a lot about mixing lately. Glad to know that I improved on that point. :D

He has risen from the grave!

This is gonna be all over Geometry Dash next week. Good job a always!

This is a really cool song you have! For the most part, I love the feel, the melody, and almost everything about this track. I enjoyed the bass sound, along with the arp in the beginning. At :18, I feel the clap didn't quite fit with the other elements, but it was close enough that I didn't mind all that much. At :30 the drums were pretty good, but I feel you could have made them stick out a little clearer in the mix. Whether through more side-chain, or just bumping the volumes up a little bit.

At 1:02 I have nothing to complain about :) great melody there, and it fits well with everything around it.

I feel the transition at 1:34 could have been a lot smoother, the transition comes much too quickly. One moment I'm hearing the melody, and the next I'm hearing something completely else. Try to incorporate some down-lifters and other effects to smoothen out the transition going from the drop to the break.

The break itself was really cool, no complaints there! At 2:03 I really liked the transition getting back into the main body of the track. At 2:11 great work with the vocals there they fit quite nicely. The outro at 4:05 was great as well, nice ambient sounds there.

All in all, I really liked this song! Keep up the good work, I have a feeling you'll be great someday! :)

I think this guy's style is kind of similar to yours, he would probably be a pretty good reference point for you. http://jumper.newgrounds.com/ - Just listen to some of his tracks, and get an idea of some mixing, and some melody ideas.

I hope this review helps, and makes sense, it's pretty long. If you have any questions shoot me a PM and I'd be happy to help. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for the detailed review, these make my day! Appreciate the advice, I'll check out the guy you linked. Thanks again, have a great day. :)
