Rock ballad hero?
Don't worry, the track sounds great! Something about the keyboard voice and chords just gave me a slight 80's feel :P The drum beat is cool, but sounds weird on the kit that you have picked out. Maybe a more electronic set would fit better. The song is a little short for me (I wish it built up into something bigger before it ended), but composed very well! Keep it up!
Thanks for the review! The drum kit itself is actually a mix of kits I made so that might explain why the drums might sound odd. Maybe i'll come back and extend it a bit someday but I'm glad you enjoyed it!

What is the sample saying?
Sounds pretty amazing to me, and I am far from a regular fan of hardstyle. I have to say, I like the first half of the track better than the end half... The second half is a little... Soft? :P Keep it up! Look forward to hearing the song finished!
yea, its okay. well, the kick at the " second part " really sucks!
well, i will soon begin to make my own kicks just to get the " ULTIMATE KICK!" ;)
- btw. the start sample says - This is a place of Shreeks. Noisecontrollers made a track called Shreeks.. check it out! :-)
Good friends...
I thoroughly enjoyed until 2:25! In my opinion, the drop at 3:07 should come in VERY shortly after 2:25, then you should add in more of the chimey drums (or ambient sounds) to make a build-up from 2:12 to 2:25. That would be nice. All I know is that right now 2:25 to 3:07 is too drawn out, repetitive, and uninteresting - those 40 seconds of listening to "good friends" repeated is the difference between a 9 and a 10 :P Other than that, your style here is great! No complaints, I love it! Keep it up!
Thank you for your great insight.
I was noticing something seemed rather flat in the composition of this song but wasn't able to point it out until you mentioned it.
Once again, thank you.
I'll make these changes tomorrow morning. As for of right now, it's late and I need allot of sleep for the day ahead of me.
You have a lot of good, catchy stuff here.
Starts off insanely good. I think my jaw dropped at first, actually :P Some parts are a bit random and don't build-up/transition very smoothly (like 1:21 to 1:22, 1:47 to 1:49, or 3:03 to 3:09, for example). I also think it seems more repetitive than it actually is just because the instrument voices never change. I like the style, but I think the song could use a little bit of work on transitions and making different parts of the song stand out more. Parts like 2:35 and 3:35 are amazing! I'm not so sure about 3:03 on the other hand. All in all, great stuff - Reminds me almost exactly of my friends music! I like the upbeat melodies! Keep it up!
yeah dude every single part you mentioned i felt the same way about doesnt transitions very well in those few parts but ive tried a bunch of different things and those are the ones that i could get to work best. im sure when i go to record it with real guitar/drums ill find something better.
Gets off to a great start!
As most of your songs do. Very peaceful! I love that chord at 0:53! 1:12 was interesting - I can hear a hint of Tool. I like 1:29, and I want to be able to get into 1:29 (I can feel myself almost headbanging), but I think the complete lack of bass and the tone of the guitars deters me... The tempo slowing down around 2 minutes into an ambient part is a good idea, but that part just wasn't epic or long enough for that to sound good (in my opinion). I would suggest putting a crazy breakdown or heavy part after 1:12 and before 1:29... I think it would flow much better - then continue on into the ambient part or fade out, etc.
Sounds great! Has a lot of potential!
I will see what I can do about the bass and that awful guitar as soon as I get my Line 6 UX1 running smoothly again... Thank you for the pointers. I will take them into consideration. I agree with the ambient part... I just have to figure out what I want exactly. Thanks again
This is great!
I really like how your voice sounds! You should do more work with vocals/choir.
Keep an eye out for my upcoming tribute to CAKE of their song Long Time. It's got some harmonization in it.

The sound quality was a bit FUNNY... I don't know if that is from your echo effect or what - just reminds me of someone being attacked by a clown! Sorry!
I still crack up reading the last post.
Wow!
I'm really impressed by this intro... It better lead into one hell of a song! Haha. Great chords, timing, dynamics, etc. Looking forward to hearing it finished!
Thanks a lot!
I'll make sure the rest of the song'll be up for par!
Cheers,
