This r liek teh poon. First thing I noticed is the mixing. Awesome work on it, though it sounds a tad overly compressed. I donno, it still sounds cool, but that sound makes it sort of small-roomish. I feel like it would have been cooler if it felt... larger? But still, nice work on the mixing, it was very crisp and clean. Just needed to be "larger."
The piano was a real nice touch, it was really clean and calm and perfect for teh trance trackz 8D. And I like when the lead synth comes in at first just like the one measure of it. Although the buildup of the melody was a little bit long for my tastes but then again I don't know trance so there are a lot of things I can't comment on. I feel like it was not used enough. Like if it were me, being the mr mysterio that I am, I'd sort of introduce it filtered during the first part of the song somewhere, THEN go to the piano and introduce it totally.
Drums- not much to say, they sound nice and tight. Sounds good, though again this is a genre taste, some breaks in the drum beat (such as fills or something along those lines) would have been nice, but sounds fine without any. And of course that's my genre, and most likely not trance.
Synth choice- Awesome choices here. They all melt together perfectly to give the effect of a "view" into the future or something. The piano again was awesome. The "ah" or whatever that may have been, might have gotten a little on my nerves, but only when i concentrated on it because then it was all I could hear. The bassline was great, powerful yet original. It's nice to hear the kickbass was not used here (Kick-bass-kick-bass etc) Though you won't be hearing a change in that from me >8( so don't ask.
This may be one of the better trance songs on this site quality and contents-wise.
Btw, I just really listened to the little sine-type thing playing in the backround at the start, and it's really cool.
5/5
10/10

THANKS ENVY HOLMES YO YO YO
A lot of peoples have been saying that it sounds overly compressed, I did not personally compress it, maybe I need to widen the stereo or tone down on the sidechaining or something.
I felt like using the saw in the start but I'd tried that before with different tracks and when I listen to it it feels like I already grown tired of it by the time it really is introduced, but that was when I was a nub, so yeah I dunno, might've sounded better.
Yeah more fills, I get where your coming from there. I was overly focused on getting things syncopated well and eq'd good that I forgot to put any real work into making original fills. Could've done with some, especiialy in that long intro.
The 'ah' sound was from a pad sound from Nexus which I tried filtering just to get the sparkling sound it gave at the top end, I tried getting as much tonal sound I could out of it but couldn't get it out fully without muting it completely :(
I try to keep away from an offbeat bass rhythm, although it gives a lot of fullness, I try to make my own rhythms that leave gaps so it sounds more grooved and jumpy, and make up for the fullness in the pads.
Thanks for the looooooooooooooong review mr mysterio envyson. u r teh poonorz thanks. :):):):)

But really on to the song. The buildup was lacking. You should have used a better kick and a quieter hi-hat. Maybe some filters. I don't really like the structure here. It's pretty repetitive.
Lol @ serious responses to these songs.
I lol at the fast cupcakes.

I'm not a huge paragon fan but... You cant really call other stuff generic because of the loud Amen break that plays throughout the whole song.
The reason paragon is good is because he makes his own drum samples, he doesn't slice loops.
Anyways not bad, not really my taste, a little loud. You'll probably get a better response from people if you don't basically force them to vote and stuff. Plus paragon has a huge fan base so insulting him any time will lose you votes.
Anyways, I'll 5 it for you and a 7/10 for the review.

YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT.
PX9 is a GIRL!
JUST BECAUSE SHE MAKES HER OWN FUCKING DRUM LOOPS DOESN'T MEAN IT'S BETTER!
I can promise you that she uses a 4-step bass, and lots of other generic shit.
How dare you insult the Amen break? It's better than your 4-step bullshit. BEFORE YOU CONTRADICT ME, being that I use the 4-step, but I use it with ACID leads, not generic hi-pitched saws, dumbshit.
You made that gay HEATHEN'S Road bullshit, right? A popular generic dance/trance artist like you should kill yourself; because when a lowly, unpopular, GOOD QUALITY newbie artist like me uses the 4-steps, you should at least be able to best it. This is not the case HOWEVER.
I don't care if your song got thousands of views and is at the top of the audio list 24/7. You're still a horrible artist.
But thanks for the 5!
xoxo DJ ISA

The bassline is very familiar, overly used but fits nice here!
The melodies sound very nice man, the harmonies are good. Don't really know what to say here! It's a nice easy listen man, flows very well. Good automations, they fit well man. Helps set a good mood.
Nice work!
keep it up!
