I hope you are surprised.

Paulo Der Munoz - Black Star

Yeah, Anthem of Paradise didn't make it, this one shall be my official entry.

1st

edit:
Intro is nice but needs better filters...
1. a little more Delay
2. Less detune (loose it)
3. Better EQ but that goes fort he entire tune

Anthem Style is in here

I think the entire tune has too much reverb
try to make your environment on a little other way
reverb is good but not too much

Oh, arround the 8.00.... I like the choir you used but it sounds a little unnatural
I like the chords you used in it MINOR but they sound too pre-sampled..... I think a little tweak with the decay, sustain and release (use them all !!) woulkd help

maybe a nice idea....
I don't know if this is meant like it is now but the kicks do not have many gain
that means the tune would be almost unable to use in a djset. Maybe it's something cool to make an intro mix and a main mix

good luck on it
I hope you can solve the things I noticed here
Very great tune apart from the things i noticed...
nice synths etc.

Good luck on it

edit 2: I may reach the newspapers because I only used 14 smilies in such a long message

Hi mate, the only thing I do agree of changing is the kick by adding more gain, not only to the kick but the rest of the percussion elements as well, I've changed it and I'll post the update later.

The rest I won't change because that is what I meant it to be, I like it detuned in the parts you pointed out it was detuned, I like the intro with not much filters applied, and you might be right about the Reverb, but others have told me the Reverb is good where it is, so I think that point is up to personal preference.

Thanks for the comments.

good build-up real *anthemy

not really much to comment about the first half of the song

in the break(sorry forgot to typ that ) think you should let the first synth fade out.
and the main synth fade in.

drumwork needs to be more impressive imo, it's a little soft compared to the synth.

i don't really like choirs(wich you hear @ 7.40) but it's good it in this track i think,
makes it a bit sensation like.

good use of effects and all

good job think it's a good track


p.s. think thijsje should be awarded for most smily-user

Ok, the track has been updated at Dance Industries, there you can download the final work, and other tracks I made just in case you want to check them out as well.

Clicky Clicky

I'm downloading it now
Will leave a comment later

But can you please put the original link in your opening post ?
To keep it simple for users

Done mate.

WOW THIS TRACK IS RAW...
good job what did u use for main lead .. sounds like superwave.
i love all aspects of this track.. except the main melody. It could use some work in my opinion its a little to long. did u make the patern for it in 256? try making it in 128 and every 4 swich the last 128 to one that sounds a bit differnt. also i dunno if u used a bassline for this track or not.. but if u did its very hard to hear. If you didnt i recomend adding one. But hey thats my 2 cents.. good luck and make sure to check out my atempt at makin an anthem ill post it realy soon keep chekin

latta

*my first post here outside the introduce yourself thread!*

I submitted my name for this compo, so I thought I'd better check out what standard I'm up against

I'm nearly sorry that I did now, this track is MASSIVE, scares me a little

I'm not really qualified to offer any new feedback, but I would agree with thijsje about the detuned strings, they're too much too early methinks. They work perfectly later in the track. The male choir is excellent (imho), sounds a little synthesized alright when they hit that f# though.

This is an excellent track

Thanks for your comments, I'm remastering the track, got some new secrets learnt.

I'll update you, do not worry, I won't change the track, by the way, are we allowed to make more than one entry for the Anthem?

not bad, really not bad.

Wow nice start!! over all a little bit too loud (volume) .. hmm about the start and the begin of the kick.. it's a little bit too rushed.. think you should filter the synth in the break, to give it more a "hand in the air feeling" .. please work on the mastering of the track mate!! .. really!.. but this is a good anthem tune for sure!!
keep on working.. some nice elements like at 1:33... i wish you build up with that

UPDATE!!!

Black Star has been Re-worked in the mastering area, check it out, you'll notice how smooth it can be listened to, now.
