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.
JUST BECAUSE HE MAKES HIS OWN FUCKING DRUM LOOPS DOESN'T MEAN IT'S BETTER!
I can promise you that he 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!

P.S.
This, Trip on This, Vectors, and those loops are the only instances in which I've sliced loops. DnB isn't my thing; or at least, not as much as psytrance is.

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!

I must say I wasn't expecting this... Cept when I heard that first note I was all 8D.
The only thing I'd fix is the transitions, they kind of just seems to switch to a new melody... try having short fills or whatnot to connect them, that way it doesn't seem like a bunch of melodies thrown together.
Very driving beat though, nice work.

We'll have to finish this sometime! Maybe over some week-ends because I have a hard enough time finishing my own stuff.
Anyways, welcome to the world of 0 voters and such... I don't know why I'm reviewing here... I'll just tell you all this in person anyways.
I love you!

I love you too!

Can't say I particularly enjoyed the intro tons. It sounded nice and all, just wasn't totally my style. I do love the piano (irregardless of it being fl keys... next time add some reverb to atleast try and spice up the fl keys... Thats the vst's fault, not yours 8D)
Although I do like the sort of bridge at 1:09 pretty cool stuff there. I still have to say the piano is my favorite part :D I'm a sucker for it!
Keep it up!

Awesome melodies man 8D i liked them alot. Very upbeat and catchy.
I can hear where I'd put certain fills in some places but thats just my style.
The switch to a new slower melody was nice, a nice break yknow? Everything sort of works together :D I like it.
Only thing I can say was the repeated drum loop got a little old... Maybe a little break from it here and there to keep people interested and not getting repetitive.
(I've found that one of the largest causes of repetition is the beat and how it's used.)
Anyways, nice work here!
Keep it up!

This is very sweet! I love the piano in this it fits perfectly. It's so relaxing and would be perfect for some sort of a love scene.
The buildup to the main piano is awesome and kind of gets your head bobbing to it, urging it on.
Mixing was perfect, everything else was real nice. Set a great ambiance!
I loved it.
10/10

Pretty cool! the different layers were pretty cool and the intro was alright, I just wish it had more of a buildup that built suspense... yknow? Kinda like a plucky synth playing the melo turning into that one... But thats just me.
When everything comes in, I kind of wish the beat had more yknow to match the synths because they're all exciting and stuff and the beat is kind of just... there... Yknow what I mean?
Anyways, nice work here!

I figured I'd review considering it's name.
I cant say I really understand the intro :D Though it is mixed very well. I like the drums that come in around 2:10 they sound pretty cool. Sorry I'm pretty busy so I can't really write a detailed review. The only thing I can say is I like the intro of the main lead more than when it all gets going because it all seems a little too "in your face for me" But it sounds nice.
I love the bitcrushed effect, that sounds really cool, and is a good break from the loud part XD.
Anyways, nice song here, I like the choice of name too 8D
Keep it up!

Nice work! Excellent mixing on this. The sidechaining makes everything feel pumping perfectly <3 sidechaining.
My only real complaint to this one is, once everything kicks in the song kind of loses its UMPH. Now I don't know trance so i cant really make many comments relating to the style, but I feel like it loses some of its drive when that happens. I mean the start is wonderful and pumping, but when everything kicks in it loses some of its drive.
Anyways, Eqing is wonderfully done, and everything sounds crisp and nice. Good use of harmonies (though i think thats what trance is about)
10/10
