    I agreed with most of your points in regards to the name fitting in with the theme that Cy wanted to convey.

    Also the pronunciation of Cyreides is SIGH-REE-DEZ

    You also need to either 1) get a new mic or 2) speak up a bit more. Aside from that I thought it was informative.

    @MTY, @Narsh give us your thoughts considering you both do audio/video reviews.

    I can't tell you how much I appreciate this review. i wasn't expecting something this in depth or this glowing and I'm very glad to have had you do this. :kdotcry:

    i also really like that you've picked out things I put hours and hours of work into that almost no one else seemingly noticed (or at least commented on), like for example the tracklisting. i kept re-arranging everything over and over and working it all over for months before it was actually finalized to get the right flow for the EP and everything else.

    and dammit if I can't get one person to help me figure out where I lay genre wise, i swear. it's a struggle, because for the life of me i just can't seem to nail down a specific one other than as you said "edm?". and I can't seem to keep myself consistently in just one either, so it is all very niche. I find it's very hard for me to really reach out and build a fan base like this. some of my music turns away edm fans cause there's dubstep present, some hip hop fans turn away because there's any amount of edm, others because they don't like hip hop, and yet I can't seem to limit it because I always want to incorporate all of the music I love into my style, so i stay losing on the fan base building. it is very much something I'd love to do as a career tho, just not sure how to advance it like this :featureus:

    as for getting a rapper to work with, I've thought about getting features, and I'm aiming for at least 3 on the follow-up out in november. i originally had someone who was going to rap on a couple additional songs as well, so they could better tell my story and expand upon the concept more than I could with just my production, but that's seems to have fallen through for now, so hopefully it's explained enough through the other features/interludes/the production etc.

    But anyways, thanks again for this m8. Brb tweeting it out and posting it up everywhere.

    Also, if you drop reviews like these, make sure to drop the @CreativeSXN tag like this, you're more likely to get attention to your thread(s)/content

    Well I figured since you're a relatively known member a thread would suit! plus I feel this would get drowned and lost in the posts if I replied in the other thread.
    All good dude, I appreciate the fact that you appreciate! ahahah :)

    Keep on doing your thing man, you'll find your niche fan base, if not you'll build one! At least this way the work you do is great when you're into it!
    Hahaha yes. Please share it everywhere!! ahha

    Oh, didn't know about the tag, so do I just tag @CreativeSXN like so?

    Yeah sorry the audio is a bit soft, I didn't realise how bad it was until I heard. it on the computer. I was probably being subconsciously softer cause I was doing this at like 3 am! Ahah, will definitely sort this out next video though! :)
