[DansDemand - Need your love (Charliux Remix)]

This lacks attention in my opinion.

I believe you didn't use enough "silence" (no sound at all), which contributes to better mixing.

Other than that, in an overall perspective, I like the "dark tone" of the song (can't find more concrete words here, sorry about that).

[Oni]

Weirdly enough, I felt submerged by the very end of the song, as if the mixing had become perfect at that moment (that is, from 2:20 through the end, but more intensely from 2:28 to 2:32). I think that because the volume is lower at this point of the song, you have more control over the whole thing, and then you can more easily adjust the proportion of the instrument volumes.

On another tone (there's one or two other comments pointing this out) I was less moved by the second drop. I think it's because the drum is less "kicking hard" at this point than in the first drop, which leaves a less powerful impression. In the end I can appreciate this part of the song, but I still find it a little bit hard to make sense of, to be honest.

Anyways, I found this song (and also your more recent work) really interesting. I never heard your work before, and it just contributed to my "inspiration tank": thanks for that :)

[1000 KinghtMares]

Did you mean "KnightMares" instead of "KinghtMares"? (notice the swap of the letters "i" and "n")

SlaughterClub responds:

its the same spelling .. ?

[Slow Burner]

This reminds me of The Glitch Mob. Well done! :)

Midnights-Ocean responds:

Thank you. : )

[Space Potato]

M hm, I can clearly hear and see the space potatoe passing over me while I'm listening at this. Thanks for pointing it out.

[Minty - Mind Breaker]

I don't hear this quality frequently on NG! Real freakin' good stuff.

The last drop was insane (wasn't expecting the "f*ck!" sample and what came next xD).

[raser - ​tired]

I know this isn't my business, but I can't help it: I think you shouldn't say "not a nice one" as the first thing people will read. As a listener, I tend to expect the song to be of low quality when I see that in the description. I should not be the only one with this impression (and generally, the expectations of people are their reality :P).

By the way, the same structure appears to be used in this song and the previous one you posted. This is simply a suggestion: you could try to use unorthodox structures. Under certain circumstances, it might even be a necessary evil >:D (I'm speculating here)

OfficialRaser responds:

thx 4 feed back bro it's really help me

[raser - deep sleep]

Constructive:
The whole song is a bit repetitive. I was expecting something new through the first drop, and halving the speed by a factor of 2 might have worked perfectly if the melody was different in the drop. The melody is good, but it might not change enough through the song.

Also, I think you overused distortion on the drum in both drops. I think you should consider lowering the power a little bit.

Positive:
Otherwise, I like the design of the drop. Mixing is acceptable (this can always be improved!), and the white-noise after the drops sounds perfect to my ears. I believe the use of a new instrument for the half-speed melody (2:14.05 to 3:18.05) to be a good choice (is it violin?).
