1Overall Description
A mind blowing song, purely unmissable, the style of a true hardtrance producer can be heard with a strong influence. Th entire song structure is detailed and controlled, yet some work on the drum compression and volume control is needed, the song still jumps into the 5 star zone in my opinion. The melody is truly epic and controlled with a differentiation and variation of harmonic techniques to make the entire song flow with that single lead, and the bass has been pushed to the brink of excellence as it truly harmonizes with the melody.
 
2Creativity Description
The entire song as one whole piece, just seems to harmonize along the journey into this uplifting song, and you are bound to hear DC's originality and style within this piece,its unmissable through the use of the bass and lead structure, which easily denotes his influences and styles.
 
3Artistic License Description
Well, with the gear provided to him, I see he has managed to pull up a wonderful song here, and by my knowledge he managed to produce this song terrifically through Reason's banks and devices, which in my perspective should have some respect, and I believe he has managed to push a very strong limitation barrier with this song, excellent job.
 
4Arrangement Description
The entire arrangement sequence is an epic structure, all harmonic and flows in well, the song's structure was the key piece to it all, in an almost progressive form, which all just seemed to piece into place like a puzzle.
 
5Sound Quality Description
Understanding the concept of your hardstyle nature, which immediately forces you to blast it (don't worry I love that), I think that with the right tuning on volume control this song could improve on sound quality, yet, what you have at the moment is of good quality, but some distortion can be heard, mainly through the organization of the drum volume settings, my advice is that you should work on that and clean that up, and clarify the drum variation and volume, to achieve a clean blasted yet controlled song.
 
6Does it work as a piece of music Description
Although I wouldn't put it under the Techno genre, as it has a strong essence of Trance and Hardtrance, I would advise to keep it under a Trance/Hardcore genre, but to consider the Trance half of this genre, the song definitely works, and has a strong positive quality overlooking it.
