[Project Awesome (klass style)]

very nice!

i like it man! you just got bring up that bass drum!

keosni391 responds:

well if you got some good speakers you can clearly hear that big bassdrum :)

[Batman Theme Remix]

alright?

just confused on what you were trying to do here... i dont understand your time signature... it like changes up... like... i dont know how to tap my foot to this really...

GhandiBoi responds:

You're right. This is probably the hardest song I've ever had the pleasure of creating due to the differences in beat and rythm.

[*)Something New(*]

i like

i like it man.
we're pretty much at the same stage in our electronic music producing life now. i mean, ive been doing this for years (here and there) and i can tell you probably have too. i like this track man, ill have to check some more off ur stuff. your phaser almost sounds too intense, just to let you know. but so far, im digging it! keep rockin.

Druix responds:

Thanks man, and yeah, I've been on and off for about a year now, a bunch of things I haven't published. Thanks for the tip.

[NSP - Dying Death Star]

okay okay :)

your amp settings for your guitar imput made it scratchy and hard to listen to. and you gotta bring up ur drums, and add some high hat. and also play with the velocity. the velocity even adds more than volume adjustments. and you gotta change the chord progression sometime, man.. i mean, i dont like playing arpreggios 50 times nor do i like listening to them 50 times...
for experemental stuff, not too bad man! keep up the good work, im curious to see what you got in the future.
heres one thing you can do that i have a hard time doing however; you can make a melody.
see, im better with drums and harmony, but you know how to supply the bulk of the meat. you need to work on getting the depth in the drums and harmony lines, and you'll be making amazing stuff!
ill stay tuned!

BobMarleyClock responds:

Thanks a lot! I've been told I have trouble with the percussion side of music. I don't have the patience to try all the different drums sounds in FL Studio. But thanks for the advice definitely. I'll see if I can put it to use.

[Pimp's Quest R - Title]

Alright, if you want my honest opinion...

I'm sorry man, I never give bad reviews ever. But i'm not sure you exactly knew what you were attempting to accomplish at the end of this track. Every thing seems really offbeat and disorganized, its not even ambient, it's very messy, and i don't know exactly where to latch on to the song. You really might want to have something in mind before attacking something like this. Exactly what sequencer are you using to make your tracks?

Ironclover responds:

Well its only a demo, but I tried to make it feel pimpy, and I based it off of Pimp Quest's Menu Music.

[Moving On by 5U8L1M1N4L]

very promicing!!!

I LOVE THE PIANO LOOP MAN, very catchy. ur just gunna wanna look at some volume and velocity changes, manly velocity. this is to make the track sound more accousticly made, and less robotic. ik its done with synthesizers, but adding some effects like reverb and stuff, will make it sound more pleasing to the ear, but you have a knack for creating melodies, man, keep it up!

5U8L1M1N4L responds:

thanks man, ya when I play this song live on an acoustic piano it sounds a lot nicer. I definitely need to clean this up a little and add a little something to it. Thanks for listening

[P.h.Dill - Dreams]

oh boy, here come the 4/4 drums! this gon' be good

i like every thing but the part where the synth comes in. you could have given some epic intro man! everything was leading up to an epic part. if there were vocals, that intro would have been epic, but there werent, so you've gotta start different than that man. i mean, you had the 4/4 beat goin and everything, i thought, mannn, this guy isnt gunna disappoint, but you kinda did. dont worry, you'll get better. and the cut off....really?
i mean, you could have ended it with some epic steampunk effect, man, everything was building up to that. or maybe a reverse steampunk after a steampunk?
yeah, that would be AWESOME. DO THAT. DO THAT. RIGHT NOW. IDC WHERE YOU ARE. JUST DO IT. or i will :)
jk, man, good luck.
you have so much potential!

Thebigdill responds:

Hey thanks a lot man... i really don't know what you mean by steampunk..?

However this is not finished, i only worked on this for a few hours :)

i think i will be working on it much longer, sorry to disapoint you, i should have put WIP.

Thanks for the review XD

[Sonic Drowning in METAL]

i like the idea,

but come on man, this is not really considered a song. more in the loop category.
it was kinda painful on the ears. and dont say thats what metal sounds like, cuz its not.

DruoxtheShredder responds:

Looks like someone drowned too much in Sonic 1.

[Tasty Feeling]

1 REALLY MINOR THING, AND YOU'LL BE THERE!

everything was there, just not the guitar.
change the amp settings a bit, and you'll have it perfect.

gnrbl responds:

I forgot the amp settings I used for the original recording, but I know what you're talking about. The tone could use a little pre-production tweaking.

[Abridged]

ugh, i did my best listening to the whole thing

you really gotta work on your intros, man.
that intro was terrible. and music's not all about effects either, you need to start out with a melody that carries out through the whole song, otherwise people arent gunna wanna keep listening to it.
i used to think the same as you, "if i change themes a lot, and change the melody a ton, its gunna make the song a lot a greater, but really, it totally kills it.
Why do you think orchestral music isnt as popular as it was in the classic period?
(ps, im in several orchestras, so i know what im talking about)
its because people couldnt grasp on to a main beat. it kept changing up and the theme got different throughout the song, like a story. back in the day that was great, but nowadays, simplistic with a lot of depth can get you far. but just dont make it too simple. and believe me, i know what im talking about, i hear from fellow musicians all the time about how i have great intonation and i know how to add serious depth to tracks. check a few of mine out, idk if they'll help you, but they should give you a little basis on what you need. maybe try a little reverb?

but i can see potential.

the song repeated, and im hearing those annoying tempo increaces again...
god, please dont make that mistake again. i mean, maybe if you used a different synth for that part sure, but i couldnt really grasp on to melody at that part yet, so please dont use stupid effects like that too early before ppl can even predict what the next notes will sound like.
stupid mistake, but im sure you'll get better in time.
i see something in you, you just gotta change up your style a bit.

5kyLight responds:

Hey,
This was my first attempt at a genre like this, obviously it's not gonna be perfect. Looking back on it, I agree with you about the tempo changes. It was a stupid idea. However, the whole "change melodies a lot" thing is everything in this genre. The whole point is to start out with an intro, drop down to just the melody, build up again, and then at the climax of the build you bring in a big bassline with pounding drums. Then it drops back down to the part from the beginning to keep the song from slipping into monotony, then builds and brings back the lead bass until the song ends. That's how electro works, so sorry if it's not your style of music :P
If you listen to one of the ambient tracks I made, they are "simplistic with a lot of depth". The thing is, that's just not what you're aiming for when you're trying to make a good electro track. Thanks for reviewing with your opinion but I guess you just don't listen to this kind of music very much. :P
