I want to know if I should continue making these new-age songs or if I should stop because they are pathetic. :) - Pip Malt

Overall Impression (6/10)

Well, the overall impression of this song was ok for me, not too flashy, but also not too bad, besides some problems that i will explain later, i retained a good feeling from this song, making me, if given the opportunity, listen to more of the artist work.

Technique, Arrangement, Composition (8/10)

As for the arrangement and tracking techniques, it was all very smooth, great choice of samples and great construction of the structure of the song, with first beginning with a type of lullaby feeling giving the tone to the rest of the song. The overall mix is very balanced, there's no harsh sounds and a happy feeling is maintained through out most of the song, only spicing it near the end. By the way, great bass.

Development (7/10)

Now here's the main problem along the creativity of the song. The artist starts extremely well till that lead sample comes along, that gives the main melody for the song. I'm not saying it was a bad choice of sample, only poorly used. The ongoing melody and it's development through the song isn't the best, not very appealing and creative, also the lullaby sample thing that started on the beginning started going a little crazy around 1:24. I understand the fact that the main melody/lead is the most hard part of the song, and i still struggle to make a good melody, maybe you're better than me LOL, but resuming, there's some, maybe not for my personal liking, but good parts like around 0.55 and the bass and percussion was very well done, so you're between something of a middle term, with tracking skills that are good and improving, but lacking on the melody creativity.

Creativity (5/10)

The creativity wasn't the best through out the song, but there's still some good parts here and there.

Enjoyment (6/10)

There's some replayability, mainly because of the structure of the song, good start, more or less middle part because of the lead sample but there's some good parts here and there. Eventually it feels kinda tired after a few listens, but i recommend at least one listen and decide for yourself.

-=COMMENTS=-
This is another new-age/ambient tune.
I like the choruses in this tune but
the transitions to and from said
choruses are a bit abrupt IMO.  What
else am I supposed to say?  Enjoy?

BTW, huge thankx to m0d for the
AWESOME Modarchive 3.0!
