[Manuel S. - ID First Prev]

Darn you're good

Very good song, happy I checked out your page after listening to your newest song. The main lead sounds a little too sharp, if you listen closely. Next to that, the beat is very simple, not that I mind in this song when it's so short. Also, I'd speed it up a little, it sounds like this would sound more awesome with a little more speed and a more complex beat. Overall, another good song!

[Manuel S. - Bored one]

Good

Pretty good actually, how'd you do it in 10 mins? Melodie is very simple, but fits good. The drop is one of the most badass I've heard in a while, and that with a song made in 10 min. :P The woble bass is ok, I guess I've heard it a little too much. Overall, very well done, now go and finish it. :D

mNl responds:

Thanks alot ! :)
Well, i was just playing with some sylenth1 pads i've done a while ago,and bam,the intro was born :D - just added some wooble and a bassline,and that's it :D
It's easy to fill the rest of the track,if u already have the rythm ;)

I should realy finish it? hm...Oki doki :D Thanks man ! ;) But trust me,if i shall realy do it, it won't be that simple as it is at the momen ^^
Thanks for your comment !

Got downrated :(

Sounds pretty damn good, too bad some asshole rated your song down. When I saw the song it had a score of 1.11, which is not deserved here. Even though the crappy score, keep up the good work!

[CFX/Input Batteries]

Very good

So, thats a deserved 10. Amazing quality, great smooth combinations. Bit repetative, but I dont really mind actually. Beat was somewhat simple, what dissapointed me a little. There wasnt a real 'wow-moment' the whole song. Am talking about a somewhat louder beat. You got the melodies here, great instruments, only thing you need is louder beats what you can make a refrein with. But am sure you can do that.

cfx responds:

Very nice! The top marks mean a lot to me.

Certainly I do agree with the repetition concern, and it's one I noticed it early-on while composing. I broke up the tune to compensate, but one of my biggest sins right now is the habit of triggering loops and then refusing to do anything with them except let them play. I am working on the self-discipline to give all parts of a song equal love and care, like the percussion you mentioned.

I would totally call the steady emotional level background music for a trailer or cutscene, without too much going on, just letting this groove-on in the background.

The encouragement is well-taken, thank you. I will be sure to address some of these concerns when releasing future tracks!

Best,

Perfection

I dont usually review songs, but this one is just too awesome. To start: I think you made an uber badass bass sound here, a lovely beat and a catchy leading tune. Fading went smooth, all sounds are extremely well combinated. Oh and yea, I put the volume to fucking max, sounds even more awesome. :D Your can be happy with your talent friend, keep it up.

TIMarbury responds:

Thank you so much! Means a lot to read a review like this.

[RMP - Tired Of It]

Here you got it

Real nice, can be just me, but I dont really like hip-hop or rap. Vocals where great, little loud through. Beat was really good. I prefer this above alot of other rappers actually. :) Well done.

[Ahead Of The Game (Album)]

Yea, nice one.

That was very good I guess, I don't really know, since I don't listen hip-hop often. Vocals arent really good mastered yet. I see alot of potention, but it needs work. Am sure you will reach that 10/10 point soon.

Keep m coming man.

[Evil Dance Thing -MH]

Yea, thats epic.

Gotta admit that. Not close to perfect yet trough. The leading sound is too loud, the beat is too simple. Drums should defenitely be louder, and more complex. 1:12, there it gets real awesome. That sounds way better than the refrein. Just because its not really done yet, it seems to me. It needs a little work, but is extremely good. Keep up the awesome work! Happy to be the first reviewer.
4/5 (5 is perfect to me)
9/10

Mushroomhead18nc responds:

thanks.. the drums are supposed to be simple though.. its a dance tune though (I think lol) I like to write stuff that makes people dance and its harder to dance to complex drum beats.. also Im not a drummer for i dont do well on drum beats haha

[Dj Walom Don. B]

Wow, nice!

You sure wouldnt say you didn't made some dubstep before! That was just awesome man.
