RE: Ambient Dance
Very nice opening sounds, agressive drums, very good! At little more than 1/3rd I thought something big will come, but... you build up tension very well, but you know you should drop in some big, uplifting melody to give a solution to all of this, otherwise the whole track will go on and on, but no solution, no meaning, no blast... you get what I mean?
Again, this tune is too good not to take it one step further and introduce a melody that sums it up and makes it complete. Something ppl can hum. Something that can get on your nerves while you try to get some sleep. Also, don't worry about CPU load, render some parts into wav and use those instead of the "computationaly expensive" softsynths.
I know, it is much harder to go back and change things here and there if you've already calculated something to wav, but if you save incrementally, you can still go back and most importantly: it is always worth more to have the possibility to add things here and there than to be able to change those parts you've already laid down. At least I always end up with that
