1MAge 35+None SelectedPopHouseElectrodo not know...
2MAge 35+BBC Radio 1MetalRockWorld musicStrange but has a nice feel
3MAge 35+None SelectedCountryWorld musicRockSORRY BUT I DON'T THINK THIS CAN MAKE IT. AND YOUR VOCALS DON'T HELP MUCH.
4FAge 13-18No favorite radiostationRnB/SoulPopBlues/JazzDefinately gonna be one of my faves I love the voice, its catchy The track is cool really cool The lyrics should be one of those lyrics that really tells something to someone you know If its some stupid ass lyrics then i dont really like it but ill just keep on listening to it cuz the melody and the tune is nice
5MAge 25-34No favorite radiostationRockPopPartyQuite nice!
6MAge 35+DR P3Alternative/PunkRockPopI really like DM, and I must admit - I expected much more. Nice though but nothing special, I'm affraid
7MAge 35+None SelectedPopDanceWorld musicJust a good pop song
8MAge 25-34No favorite radiostationElectroRockPartyA U2 rip off. Words of advice from an industry professional, change your music or give up, you wont make it.
9MAge 35+No favorite radiostationPopRockCountryHonestly cound'nt really identify a hook. Singing was not very good. Song never really built to anything. Sorry.
10MAge 35+None SelectedDanceMetalRockclip did not give a chance to decide, must listen to whole track needs a little more than just vocals, more background would be helpful.
11MAge 25-34No favorite radiostationHiphop/RapDanceRockSounds live.
12MAge 35+None SelectedRockWorld musicPopCool song with lots of cristalsounds
13MAge 19-24No favorite radiostationHouseLoungeElectroLike your sound, but in the background theres somekind of vibrato synth, wich makes the track seem a bit clomsy, i would make the sound a bit cleaner, if you know what i mean. (: I think the delay in the pre chorus should be muted, it the sound confusing. But i love the corus (: And the vibrato synth makes sence behind the vocal (: I think the biggest thing i can point my finger at, is that theres not much variation. Hope you can use it.
14FAge 25-34No favorite radiostationPopDanceAlternative/PunkReminds me of 80's alternative. Which I am a huge fan of. Your voice gives it a modern feel. like it
15MAge 35+No favorite radiostationCountryRockBlues/Jazztoo many effects...cant really tell if the singer can really sing or is it the effect carrying him.
16FAge 13-18No favorite radiostationRnB/SoulHiphop/RapRockiI like this song its nice....
17MAge 19-24No favorite radiostationPopDanceRockSoundbite had a good intro into the track, introduced what can be assumed to be the main melodies and riffs. However no vocals were shown in this. I liked this track, however the vocals didnt seem to have the strength to that of the backing instruments. Perhaps a more comprehensive downmix of the final track by tweaking those vocals to be less overpowered would help. Overall however, I enjoyed the music side thoroughly, it was a well put together track.
18FAge 13-18No favorite radiostationHiphop/RapPopDanceits really catchy
19MAge 19-24No favorite radiostationMetalRockElectroI really like this one...Love the Chorus
20FAge 35+None SelectedPopDanceHiphop/RapI like it, just do not be afraid to sing it out.
21FAge 13-18No favorite radiostationHiphop/RapRnB/SoulDanceyou should have had the singing as the preview...i would have voted love it
22FAge 35+BBC 1XtraRnB/SoulDanceHiphop/Rapcould grow on me
23MAge 19-24No favorite radiostationHiphop/RapRockPartygood song and good lyrics
24MAge 25-34None SelectedPopRockCountryVery cool intro, but I did not feel where it was going. Gotta catch your listener in the first 30 seconds or they will leave you. Musicly very cool.
25MAge 25-34N-JoyHiphop/RapRnB/SoulPoptoo much vibrato
26MAge 25-34No favorite radiostationRnB/SoulHiphop/RapRocki think you may have something here...nice!
