My ninth song, and so far my favorite one. Took me around 5 hours to complete. If you've listened to my past songs, you'd probably know that I didn't use any effects, but this time I got knowledge of what effects are and how to use them, so I added in EQing, reeverb, side-chaining, and filters. Oh, and I used the FL Studio 10 trial version to make this song.

Reviews, opinions, and constructive criticism welcomed.

It's maybe a bit too repetitive. If you ask me it needs a tad more melodies too.
Kick is also quite soft, bring out the transient more (boost high end or alternatively cut the low end).

Don't rush 'em. Quality over quantity.
And for quality you should totally learn the use of effects. EQing is one thing that saves lives :P When in doubt, you'll get help from here ;)

Yup, I know. I don't try to rush. I did for one song and that went horribly. And I said that I used EQing up there xD And I've gotten plenty of help from here. I know to ask

hmm yeah its missing quite a bit, the kicks are barely there and have a weird tempo and that arpegiator is just too repetitve as is the overall theme. I like the idea of the track and the sample but its just too much thrown together and not gelling or being eq'd not correctly. think of making your song more in sections and having different melodies in each and add maybe add some more instruments. :|
