Landfall

"I'd say it's fast breakbeat..."

submission: Landfall
date: August 28, 2008

...or slow DnB:)
liked it, definite soundtrack music. I personally prefer stuff like this a bit darker, but it was well produced. i thought you could've made more of the bassline with some distrortion and filtering in parts to help break it up.
Good track, 5'd

REBORN (final version)

"nice"

date: August 27, 2008

the lyrics and vox are corny as fuck, but the playing is good. Bit too much reverb on the vocal, would sound nicer a bit distorted and less 'clean' imo.

Author's Response:

The lyrics are not supposed to be "satanic" or anything if that's what you mean. I haven't written much text because you are supposed to kind of "get" the meaning behind them. I don't like to fall into the trap of pseudo-Satanism.

Thanks for the review.

Counter Melody

"house?"

submission: Counter Melody
date: August 21, 2008

I'd have to say it's not what I would consider house music, it's a kinda tech/dance rather than house.
The melodies and counterparts work well, nice and simple. i find the sounds a bit tedious, i think it would have been nice to try using some more inventive sounds and synths, these sound a little dated, but good nonetheless.
The mastering/production on the trk is ok, the beats could do with being more upfront, making the snare more prominent would help drive the track along and perhaps some seperation in the mix to give some of the sounds the space to breathe. It's all there really, just needs a new set of sounds and a bit more variance for my liking, good stuff.

Author's Response:

Alright, this is going in the techno section.

Thanks for the review. Everything you said will be going into this song, so I can make the changes. I basically just threw the main parts of the song on NG..... so i think the final product will be about a 5 minute song, maybe longer.

Whats funny about the sounds is that I originally was going to make a parody song called "Generic Techno" .... and just make the most generic techno song out there. That is why the melody starts off so dam generic and the sounds were so generic.... I changed the melodies and made them more complex, but you know what.... i forgot to change the sounds...lol. Thanks for pointing that out, I'll give some different options a try.

The percussion is something I'm terrible with, so thanks for the notice... I'll definitely make my snares more prominent.

Anyways, appreciate the review.

{IDR}-Radio Future

"liked it"

submission: {IDR}-Radio Future
date: August 21, 2008

nice clear/crisp sound and good use of separation on the beats to give the trk a good surround and rounded feel.
Liked the filtering but think the track would benefit from a bit more variance in beats and sounds as it starts to sound a little flat after a while. Some more chops and glitches might have been cool to break the trk up.
Overall, good tune.

dub mosquito (nearly done)

"happy birthday to me"

date: August 20, 2008

Submitted on my Birthday, therefore I will treat it as an audio present:)
Like it a lot. Slow dubby groove, with a nice glitch element, sounds good and live, a nice sub drop would make it exquisite.

R-VeeBee - Deva-Station

"boom boom boom"

date: August 19, 2008

I instantly liked this, soon as it kicked in it had my foot tapping. I am a product of the 'Rave-Era' so I always enjoy a bit of a nostalgic flashback to the early 90's:P
This is rave-like with a modern twist. The repeptition factor is a bit of an issue, but typical of the genre, definite club music smashed on magic beans:)
When it breaks down in the mid-section i would like to here it without the belly synth i think it would sound more hard edged that way, other than that, cool trk.

R-VeeBee - Progression

"chilled"

date: August 19, 2008

Sounds almost Robert Miles circa 'children' era, mainly due to the delayed plucked synth sound:)
I would like to have heard a different bass sound, something fuller, more rounded that really gave the mix some sub-bass end.
It's a nice track, good steady progression and i like the panning synth that comes in around 2:30.

Nice chilled stuff.

Hehe, yeah my producergroup at school also said it reminded them of 'Children'. :P

"haahhaha"

date: August 19, 2008
