@morttagua: Hi thanks, glad you like it my friend. Yes I'm a producer as well, you can check out my other works at my SoundCloud page.
@Top Traxxs: thanks! appreciate your support!
@Allow de Esco musica: Thank you. It is a very beautiful track and one of my current favorites. Very meaningful. Thanks for your support. :)
@Ziq AJ: i think its ur sound system... what are you using?
ok listened again more intently... melody is ok... not really my taste, doesn't seem to flow right. the kick omg wayyyyy to compressed or too much limiting on master as i mentioned. Everything is distorted, like during the peak... are you using studio monitors?
sorry, just some constructive critisism,,.. don't take personally yeah? need help juz PM me. happy to oblige.
not bad... melody is there altho lacking a little in emotion.. doesn't seem to flow mebbe choice of instruments, seem to clash a bit.... a nice warm wide pad would def benefit... but yeah mixing needs work.. way too much limiting on master channel that your kick is distorted. But its good work tho... just some of my thoughts. the limiting tho, that one u really gotta do something about it.... :P
Very well done. no surprise its a winner! congratulations!
@JDCmusic: bet u didn't expect that huh.LOL I had to...I just had to. I was so uplifted by your piano and arp then suddenly i was taken back to the darkness, i just had to do it.. LOL! =)
@JDCmusic: anytime man! hows the weather down under? :)
oh and that lead... not just square.. square, saw, sawpeak, more saws..think its like over 5 layers.. LOL. Glad u approve man... means alot to me. u build really good tech intros something i'm not too experienced in as I'm the uplifting sort, so its really fun working with your samples and blending the styles.. and that wicked piano... ultimate!... Yes we muz collab soon. =) Keep in touch yeah? Take care mate! feel free to PM me anytime.

Sorry but i'm one of those people who don't know how to appreciate house music. but I like your mixing and production skills though.
like the pads and chords. nice work mate! finally get to hear the whole thing. low end could use abit more punch tho. a little flat-soundin'. :)
nice production. radio ready with a little more mastering. I don't know the original song / artist but this makes me a fan. good job! congratz!
bridge sounds good! keeps that happy vibe going with the modulated synth.
groovy main chorus. not over done and not under done either. perfect
nice work with adding synth elements for 2nd verse
@rudeboy ¬synQ: haha would love to rock em decks live too, but like i said, been away for years... just (re)aquainting with the scene here, so for now, all my work's done in my modest lil studio @ home. :)
Hey great set.... kept my head bobbin' for a good hour. smooth transitions, very tech/electro-trance influenced. nice.
Juz got back from US after 6 years, so good to see the SG scene alive & kickin'. cheers!
@JM_B: cool! you're awesome! thanks for the support! :D
@COZ'MOZ: glad you like it mate. And thanks for this awesome avenue to share my music at, with like-minded and appreciative people. :) respect!
