Hey there, thank you very much for sharing your music with us! The track has a great foundation for a modern metal song, great melodies. However, we think the song would benefit from better mixing and mastering. The current mix sounds very overcompressed, unbalanced and unpolished, which keeps it from reaching its full potential. It sounds very unnatural.... Keep refining your art, we’re excited to hear more from you in the future! Best of luck!
Hey there, Echovayn - thanks for the submission. Your track has an intense sound and bags of energy. There are lots of ideas, fills and variations, which is cool. For me, the vocal tone was very generic and lacking in a unique character or tone. Overall, the mix is very smooth and compressed, but lacked dynamics and sounded quite hissy to me - there's a kind of treble sheen over everything. Melodically I didn't hear enough that I thought was really memorable or replayable. For those reasons, I'm going to pass on this one,
Hola. La canción tiene una introducción con una voz que va del misterio al estruendo del rock pesado, con guitarras sumamente intensas y fuertes con aceleraciones de riff y una batería presente marcando también el ritmo. La vocalización al igual que las guitarras encienden una aceleración evidente hasta marcar más sonidos envolventes de fondo que armonizan un poco su fuerza metálica, al igual que el coro que ayuda a su idea musical. Las guitarras se hacen cargo al callar la voz de la misma forma que las aceleraciones de la batería y la voz experimenta varias direcciones en la velocidad de su recorrido. Luego vienen sonidos algo más cinematográficos en su intensidad continuenado y repitiendo la misma estructura anterior pero con una recitación del cantante que no estaba para luego volver a explotar. Su intensidad es alta y sabe manejarla. Esta vez no será incorporada por estar buscando melodías algo más envolventes, pero destacamos cada punto mencionado. Saludos cordiales!

Greetings! I really enjoyed the heavy tone of the guitars as it matched the metal style of the arrangement. This will be a great addition to my playlist. Thank you!
I like the confidence and strong presence this track brings from the start :) The overall delivery feels a little too intense for the atmosphere I’m looking for in my playlist right now, so I’ll have to pass on this one. Bringing in more dynamic contrast and letting some softer elements balance out the harder-hitting moments could make the track feel more versatile. Keep channeling that energy into your sound and finding new ways to make it shine <3
Hi Echovayn, this has the grittiness and intensity that I'm after and I loved the impactful fast paced energy. Unfortunately though, the mixing quality sounded way too bright and sibilant which sounded really harsh to the ears. Unfortunately this didn't meet my quality expectations and I won't be adding it.
Hey again Echovayn, So I think for a hard rock track this song is aggressive and pretty amazing. However, and I believe I've mentioned this previously, but I'm looking for a classic rock approach on the drums and guitars, as well as the vocals. And while you had the guitars and drums that make for a great rock song, I think I simply just struggled to get into the vocals as they felt a little too operatic-metal inspired. They also seem to have a bit too much processing on them, whereas I prefer and clean, classic rock vocals. On future subs, consider sending me a raw, unprocessed, and more classic hard rock track - if you have one - both on the vocals and sound design overall, to be a better fit with us!
The song was immediately impactful in the first few seconds of the song. However, there's a noticeable static noise quality in the song's overall production and it shows in the vocals, hihats, and crashes, so I'll be leaving this one out for now.
Hi there again Echovayn and thank you for yet another song of yours! Great work on the power and energy once again! Really liking the power in the instrumental when it takes off at 24 seconds. The synergy between the drums and strings is on point for sure! The lyrics are pretty relatable as well like usual but those vocal effects are simply too much for me.. I prefer the vocals much more natural as this is what my audience likes. All the best, R
Hey there! Unfortunately, your song sounds too plastic and artificial to me. Especially the vocals. Sorry, but that's not for me. Thank you for the submission!
Hey thanks for the submission. That is a super cool vibe here with a lot of power and energy on the vocals. I liked the heavy approach for the instrumental a lot as well, but for me personally the production could have still been sounding a bit more full and dense. Have a nice day! Hendrik
Hi there! We like that male voice sync along with guitars and drums. However the overall sound of that singing is a bit aggressive and strong for our personal taste, which doesn't fit quite nice among other more upbeat rock songs with slightly melodic yet emotional singing along that we prefer in our 'rock legends' playlist. And we usually prefer slightly more old-school oriented approach of rock songs with much qualitative sound approach in our playlists, where your track isn't quite a great match for this time, sorry
Formal resignation es un lanzamiento próximo sólido que despliega una energía arrolladora desde el inicio. Pero, siendo específica y honesta contigo, no me enganchó su producción y sección vocal bastante artificial. Extraño una voz genuina y una fórmula menos familiar. Tampoco convence su sonido, le falta pulido y cohesión.
Hi, Echovayn! Thanks for sharing. The beginning of your song is intriguing and sets the listener up for an old-school metal vibe. The chorus is explosive and would be a great addition to a loud party or a movie soundtrack. The vocals are emotional and add a sense of epicness to the soundscape. Your track is worth checking out, but I think it’s not quite young enough for my taste. I hope you understand. Best wishes!
Hi, thank you for sharing this track! I enjoyed the heavy riffs and the driving rhythm, which gave the song a solid impact. The transitions between sections felt a little bit abrupt in my opinion. I was looking for smoother changes to help the different parts connect more naturally. Wishing you all the best with your music!
I appreciate you sending this track over. The guitar riffs and drumming really caught my attention! While I enjoy rock, I generally gravitate towards a more polished production style for my playlist. I wish you the best of luck with your music!
Hey there! Thanks for this song. The heavy, energetic, and crushing music lines match well with the powerful vocals. The mood of the song is well conveyed by the charismatic and emotional vocals. I like the energy this song brings. I think it's a strong performance. However, this song feels too intense and heavy for my rock playlist. Sorry if I let you down. Good luck with teh promotion!
Thanks for your submission. I don't accept any songs made with artificial intelligence so I'm going to pass on this one.
