Come on everypony, give me something to work with.
If it's just boring, please say so. ;)
Should I make the mix louder or something?

The synth design needs some serious work. The notes on even just one synth doesn't even want to stay on one pitch and is just plain scratchy and annoying to listen to. The really higher pitched almost "bell" like instruments don't even seem in the correct scale as the rest of the song is in. The pluck is ok. The saw wave lead isn't the worst, but it could use some work. The lower sub bass like instrument definitely isn't in tune with the rest of the song, and doesn't play out very well.

As for the song structure, there doesn't seem to be an apparent one, it seems pretty random, actually. There aren't any faders or risers, and the end is lame. The vocals definitely need to be mixed together a ton better. There's still some background noise in them (and if you search around this site somewhere, there's a ton of threads that have a link leading to almost every single episode through season 3 without background noise), and just having a line from the show like you do now doesn't sound good. Other than that, it seems ok, I guess the mixing could probably use some work, but overall the song is pretty ear scratching and hard to want to listen to. Don't worry though, I'll assume you're new to music, so you'll definitely improve. I remember when I started out, I was really horrible as well :lol: Sorry if the review is short or sorta rushed, I didn't really feel like reviewing any songs but I did anyways. Nice to meet you.

@DA MAGICS ._.

Improve it? man if you take out the drums It sounds like something PIXAR would fucking use seriously, It's dope, the pitch and scratchy ness that mr. superreviewer above talks about doesn't come through on my headphones, and I spent a small fortune making a studio level get up.

Its great, if its trying to be a trance song, just add a bass in the back that doesn't hurt the original sound, and beef up the drums a bit. also fuck around with the effects for the fun of it, you tend to make some pretty cool sounds by just having fun and messing around =]

It's different, and in this sort of industry, that helps, even if theirs no community on earth who would ever accept that.

I seriously doubt that Pixar would want to use this, even without the drums. The lead bell synth thingy at the start sounds like it has too much spread and distortion on it, and it doesn't sound very good. Just put less distortion on the lead synth. That's what I meant when I said it was "scratchy", and that it sounds like it's hitting the one group of frequencies that... around the ~6k-8k region... well, whatever, I still stand by my opinion that it sounds too distorted, like it has too much unisono pitch cutoff spread under the voicing tab in Massive as an analogy.
