Brutally the intro really didnt do it for me, i liked the little random synth that reverbs in and out but the intro needs a bit more going on to build the tension. And i feel harsh saying this but it feels like there was a bit too much copy & paste going on in the track, its like 6 minutes long and only really consists of 3 different sections that are used once or twice. The song itself is good, nice melody and i like the way the wobble gradually gets more intense, but personally i would spend some time just mixing things up a bit and trying to change the rythm and Rate of the LFO. Good track, but needs work. :wink:

yeh safe man, im not 100% on the intro either but its just got to the point of not seeing outside it anymore and gettin 'writers block'. as for the lfo experimentation. i did a bit, but i wasn't really feeling it. Got some nice lfo things that i'm working on at the moment so i do know what you're sayin bowt it.

safe up.

The thing i have learnt from certain tracks you are experiencing "Writers Block" With, just stop working on that track for a while. sometimes i just open up a new reason folder and just mess arround creating new combinator patches and effects, usually after youve done this you can go to the track with 'Fresh Ears' So to speak, you could maybe even use some of the synts and effex you have created from other projects. I think ive got a system where i have a select group of songs on my desktop that i know when you listen to them they could be a song or used as inspiration for another.

Baisically just dont limit yourself to working on one specific song for too long unless the idea's are really flowing, otherwise you will just get bored of hearing it and genrally loose complete track of what you were doing in the first place. and you get this sorta feeling :u:

Hope some of this helps dude. What software did you use to create this song btw?
