[-= Killburst =-]

I wanted to make a more in depth review because I still felt bad :(

I think I'll start off with stuff that I think needs improvement.

-The beginning (At least up to 0:45) starts slow, with repeating tracks that don't really progress, they kind of just move laterally throughout the song. There's also a lack on complexion, but it's still not bad
-Starting at (0:45) Start a beat/DnB drop, with sounds really weird, like you inverted your drums, they just feel like they're in the wrong place. The lack of complexion continues.
-1:45 Only really 2 instruments, and then a pause without not a lot of buildup beforehand
-2:30 Feels likes a copy paste from earlier
-2:50 Loses the good rhythm from 1:40 :( Goes back to something not so great
-Overall, I would say it's leaning more twords Dubstep with Copy and Paste, the only part I really feel can be more DnB is the fact that you didn't resort to truely grit junkyard basses. Thank you.

The Good
-The bass the starts around 1:40 is really cool, and the beat fixes itself there too
-The instruments you made overall are very nice
-The ending and middle pick up the rest of the song
-Lack of instruments can also be a good thing in this case

I will give it around 6 out of 10, it has it's elements, but you're not at that 10k hours level yet haha

TheBiocide responds:

Thanks for the review, man! Always good to get a nice, lengthy critique every now and then! I guess I'll take some time to try and address some of the things you mentioned since you took the time to point 'em out :)

The pattern I used for the drums isn't actually that uncommon to hear in a Drum and Bass track. However, if you think it sounds weird, that's totally fair - it has that sort of "off beat" feel to it - which, personally, I love :3 You also mentioned that at 1:45 there are only "two instruments", which I can honestly say is not right at all... Haha, there are numerous layers of basses, sub basses, kicks, snares and cymbals playing. Just because it doesn't complex doesn't mean it isn't. You did even say yourself, "lack of instruments can be a good thing" - so I guess you get what I'm saying ;)

Those are really the only thing I wanted to address. I don't agree with everything, but for the most part, I do! And that's fine, it's impossible to get good reviews all the time! Reviews like yours keep me on my toes... Haha!

Thanks again for the review, man - always appreciated!

[Certitude-Woop Woop]

Justin Bieber voices dont rap well

Drop your voice and move away from the mic a tad, plus you need better beats. You'll get there

[Descent (MSB)]

Sick dude, how are you making these instruments sound like vowels and shit?

GrantBowtie responds:

LFOs are your friend

[Finger Linger]

Here I was thinking no one else made chillstep haha

nice job man

[xKore - Beast Mode]

that bass is what I don't like about dubstep.

Other than that, I guess it's OK, I dont see where all the 5 stars are coming from though, I would think that one of MSB's songs would be top of the the list, but apparently people like hugely deep bass with little to no musical background.

[Sonik - Sy's Law (NGADM)]

I thought there was going to be a drop or some release at around 1:00, but you just went into a different beat, and then back into the one you had before. This song is lazy man, edit it down.

When you build up a song, there needs to be release.

Mainstreambeats is probably going to win this one, if not, then the judges don't know much about music

DreamEater responds:

damn dude, I understand where you are coming from but this review is a little fucked in my opinion :/. I'm aware of how I structured the song, and just because I didn't add some garbage ass skrillex drop DOES NOT mean that this song is lazy at all. IF YOU knew shit about music, you would realize that I put hours into this mixdown & crafted every synth from scratch. Fucking save your negativity for the clockday submissions prick :/

[Treachery]

It felt like it was moving really slow, it took too long to progress, you didn't have a big "hit" where the speed or tone really shifted early enough, and then when you did, it wasn't nearly enough of a hit....
