<Remix>Kyancool vs. Evening Star - Princess of the Sun

Postby Kyancool » 16 Feb 2014 05:39

As a first post on these forums I'd like to introduce myself:
My username is Kyancool, I make and listen to excessive amounts of music. I've joined these forums to "explore" a new branch of music, and meet new people on the way. Of all music communities I find the MLP music community one of the easiest to relate to. I've listened to great amounts of songs by Sim Gretina, Tombstone, Woodentoaster, H8Seed, etc., and really enjoyed them. And what I enjoy, I remix :D

This song was originally by Evening Star, and it's about Princess Celestia. He provided me with the vocal stem so I could remix it, and after one or two months, this is what came from it:



As you might've guessed, I'd like some feedback from you guys. Don't be afraid to be "blunt", because if I don't get a few slaps on the wrist from time to time, how will I improve? :p

Cheers,

Kyancool.

The song is good and I will start listening to you. Your an artist that understands on how to do Remixes right without having something too high or too low. You kept the highs at a normal range and the lows at a comfortable range. You do have a little bit of a dynamic range, nothing too complex. I like that. You also had no clipping in such as noisy piece as this. That is tricky to do and I like that. Your chord progression is nice and I like the selection of instruments. You know what you are doing?

I am going to give a beginning analysis, that is one of the parts that is the weakest in this piece and it would take to long to fully analyze this piece from the beginning to end. These are a few things I noticed that should have been changed.

Why such a sudden beginning. For the electronic genre, it would be better to go from a low pass to normal as a fade. That would be a bit interesting if you did it for the first 3 measures. I also am hearing 2 beats. One is on the second beat of the 4 you have (I don't know how to say it more simply. I forgot the term). It sounds like a click track. You should of made that louder or chosen a different instrument. Maybe a snare there instead. You should have placed the reverse symbol crash during the break instead of having it complete a measure before the stop. It still feels a little bit off Also, I feel there are some conflicting instruments. It makes things feel a bit off. I don't think you were going for that. I think your drum fills are causing this. It is a bit distracting to me.
