| it doesn't suck but it doesn't wow me either. it seems to be lacking a little something that would give it that pop energy. maybe better production? its definitely better than most of the "rate my music" stuff i check out |

| The arrangement is great, very original. A bit busy at times, but I like it that way. The synth sounds are very bleak and sub-dued, not very shiny IMO, but I think it leads you to a style that is very original and not the norm. I especially like the break-down in the middle, sounds way cool, it's a nice change in melody. Dig'in it, I like this tune a lot!

what did you use to make it? the vocal idea is nice, but the result does not work. needs less room or better room, more hipass filter or diferent eq, more blending, more autotune, melodyne and vocalign.  the lead melody from 1:48 also needs more blending, i think needs more compression or something. the idea is great, try usign diferent plugins for EQ, sounds like it needs a more pro sound. catchy song, needs more work in the mixing & mastering area, maybe also recording again the vocals with diferent equipment, and you have a Hit there. the UUUUUWWWWUUU sounds similar to some song i love but cant remember... maybe Junior Jack - Thrill Me or maybe Daft Punk - Burning or weekend from... | |

| Hey cool stuff man. Takes some balls to post shit public. I like but sounds kinda Mono to me, but that could be what you're going for. Good Luck!
