Hmm....

How am I reviewing this only now? I heard it years ago... but anyway, knowing more about Drum n Bass now, I think the snare drum is a bit too weak compared the kick. The kick drum really stands out, and that's not a bad thing, but you might wanna make the snare more apparent. Just turn it up. Otherwise, good job, the melodies are nice and catchy, and it's an overall good song.

Don't get me wrong...

This is a good song. The drums should have definitely been louder. MUCH louder. And at some parts of the song, you didn't slice the break at all. I have that same break, and I'm just saying you could have sliced it up in those parts. But overall, good song.

Hmm...

I wouldn't put this in drum n bass. I'd put it in modern hip hop. But the actual song is pretty good. I don't know what to say really, just wanted to point out the genre thing...

ARE YOU TELLING ME WHAT TO DO? I AM A PART OF ISIS AND I KILL YOU AND BEHEAD YOU AND KILL YOU AGAIN!!!! But no it is drum and bass ( 170-190 BPM and heavy bass and drum orientated) is what classifies drum and bass. Now days you slow down drum and bass and take away a few drum hits, add a bit more wobbly bass bam! You have dubstep. Not to mention some crazy ass twisted mind ( for the deep dubstep, trapstep, creepstep) As an artist I do what I can, when I can and how I can. In the end It is me .... AND IT IS WHAT I SAY GOES YOU HEAR ME!!!! LOL, peace and love my brother, may Allah be with you always. ISIS power.

Hmm...

This is perfect background music for a scary movie or a really suspenseful and quiet scene in something. Maybe eerie background music for the menu of a war game? Who knows. But it's still pretty good, even though it lacks melodies lol. It's just too... creepy for me. lol

A great song indeed.

Yep... I loved this song from the moment it started. Love it so much, I remixed it. Care to check out my version? :D

Anyway, the piano WAS a nice touch, you don't hear much DnB like this. It is pretty unique. I might start making more DnB of this style :D

Know anything of this submitted 4 months earlier?

idk if thats the song you remixed or what, but i found it and remembered, "hey, fox has a song like this..."

lol i didn't hear any trumpets.

Yeah good song and all but your reeces... now I'm not one to insult you, seeing as I'm a n00b compared to you, but your reeces sound like filtered noised. With pitches. Sorry :| Try to make a Noisia-type gritty bass in your next DnB. I don't think I've ever heard a gritty bass in your songs. I'm sure you can pull it off.

P.S. CHECK YOUR INBOX

Good overall, but...

I'll say it again... you use the same drum samples in almost every song you make... same goes for the synths, too... I heard the same synth that was in the intro to The Traveller somewhere in the middle here. It's good, and all your songs are great, but changing up the drum samples/synths would make it better, because everyone likes diversity. And if I'm right, you're using GarageBand? If that's true, are those synths/samples presets or something? Now while your music is good, I suggest you get FL Studio or Reason if those synths/samples ARE presets.

Just a suggestion :D

9/10 (-1 star for the diversity thing)

Stan-SB responds:

yeah ok but the drum loops new and im not sure which synth ur talking about theyre all new aswell nevemind
thx for the review

Yep

Glad to see you're still hangin' around NG. The new length for song descriptions is a lot better right?
Yep, to the song. I like this and the original Robot Army equally. This one has less violence though. That's what's cool about your tracks. The xylophone (was it a xylophone?) and piano kind of calm everything down despite the nasty bass. And that bass is nasty. Awesome.

Snare's fine, wanna send me some samples? kthxbai.

I make drum & bass which I upload on www.soundcloud.com/1 shibumi. I don't submit (often) to NG anymore, but feel free to use whatever I have posted here. But you should know that I've gotten a lot better!
