Crisp production.

Great clarity and production. It's quite a slow progressing trk, kinda brooding, menacing, but ultimately i found it a little sparse. I think maybe adding some heavy breaks and a good solid bassline to it with some extra bleeps and blips would help.

Dj-Zabar responds:

I tryed to do something a little less chaotic and focus more on structure and clarity.
I guess it coulda used more bleeps and blips throughout.
Thanks for the Review, Always appreciate it.

Not bad........

Don't know what that other reviewer was on about tho. It sounds fine to me, just not at all finished, which is why i marked it down. i think it has potential, so maybe u should go on to make it into a full song. I find the bass a bit too intrusive tho, needs to be lower in the mix or a better sound i think.

Fuel2Fire responds:

Hm... maybe your on to something... I might mess around with it in between projects and if something good starts to come of it I make take the time to make it better. I'll check out what you said about the bass and adjust it properly.

But all and all I made it in like 3 mins for something that sounds dumb but fun lol.

Thanks for the review!

Has its moments...

...it sounds very fruity loops, progressions and beats wise. There's some real great bits of melody and structure, but apart from that, it's all a litle messy and sounds very basic. I imagine u are trying to experiment with the software u have, and fair play to u, but it doesn't do anything for me. Sounds like someone trying too hard. The bass is all over the shop and it's very apparent that u have just programmed in random notes. A little more thought and structure would make this trk better.
I like the synth sound and riff that comes in around 45 secs, it all goes a little squarepusher for about 20 secs, but then goes back to the fruity loops sound that i dont like. In my opinion u have potential, but need to get a better grasp of structure and what sounds good, co after all, thats what music is all about.

Zerok responds:

Wicked review. The constructive criticism is appreciated.

This is all just experimentation, you're right. I do have an older program, and I'm uncovering new stuff every time I use it. Oddly enough, there were no randomizers used at all, unless by 'random' you meant just putting shit in and adjusting it so it sounded 'good enough'. That's pretty much all I did with the melodies.

I play drums, so making a beat isn't hard at all. It's just like sheet music on FruityLoops.

I intend to improve; I love making music. Your feedback helps a lot! Thank you.

Nice...

... I like it, some sounds, like the acidy saw lead at the end i can take or leave, but other than that it's a good bit of experimenting. The piano is a nice riff, but sounds a little cheesy to me and the drums could do with being more punchy and compressed on the high-end to make them sound sharper.
Anyways, enuff of my bullshit advice, Good shit man. Really like this trk.

DJRunaway responds:

Hahaha, thanks for the review KB :) I know, the saw sounding thing is lame, the Piano is cheesy (hmmmm, cheeeese!)... But it's just an experiment ;) Hehehe :D I appriciate your honest review :)

I dig this!

This is cool. Kinda olskool video game sounds mixed with nice lo-fi beats and chopped up shit. I like it a lot, even that very dodgy sounding horn sound is cool, co it fits perfectly with the style of the trk. My favourite tune by u so far. More of this experimental weird shit pls:D

JonH2O responds:

When I was listen to this song my attention was set on the SFX i added. So I thought I'd add something to kind of....get out of the way....or something.
That's cool that it's your favorite song, I tried!

-Jon

P.S. By the way King..I went to search for your audio and stuff and everything was gone!!!! What's up wit dat?

Catchy...

...but it is that same ol bassline rhythm that i find overly tedious. I like the sounds and i like the dynamics of this trk, but it aint the sort of thing I would ever put on my stereo at home.

DJRunaway responds:

Hahaha :) That's Ok, aslong as u vote 5en my friend ;) Hahaha,

ARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I think the production is just right for this kinda song, it sounds semi-live and nice and dirty. I also like the fact the vox merge into the other parts, as with this kind of trk is it really necessary to know what's being said? I think not:) It's all sounds nice and angry and thrashy, it's a perfect length too. Not too long not too short. Gets my 5.
1hr eh! Good stuff.

Rucklo responds:

Yohoo.

Nice that u like the song man, the vox-merge is something I wanna use more in future metal-projects. I like it too :D
But lyrics, yeah, important if u buy an album, or have some political or other engegement towards the subject of the song, othervise I really don´t care bout lyrics that much.

Thanx a lot for 5´ing and reviewing the song dude :D

Floink!

This trk is great, possibly my favourite of all your trks to date. It deserves to be higher in the weekkly chart, I hope it wont get ignored because it's such an original tune and the production is so tight. I'm sure this will get picked up by some animators, it's perfect for fighting/running action scenes.
Great trk. U should be very proud of it:D

Rucklo responds:

Yoo!

First I´d like to say that I think it´s a great loss for both the Audio Portal itself and all the fans and 14-years old ppl ;) on the site to loose your music here on NG.
But respect and 100% support for your decision!

Really glad you liked this track, I´m not sure I think it´s my best (still, "Never Having Second Thoughts" is my favorite), but it´s up there ;)
I too hope i´t won´t be ignored, but hey, it sure as hell will, it´s in the misc category. Sux. :)

Thanx a 1000 for your review, it´s allways good to hear from you former King of the Portal!

I dig this....

....not much different to say than I've already said:). Good shit, original and inventive.

Dj-Zabar responds:

It's cool...

...I think everything about this trk is great. I think the drums and bass could be made phatter, to help the trk kick along a bit better and that's why i gave it 9/10, but that aside i really like the vocal samples and the chords and sound of the instruments/fx u have used.
I noticed this has been voted down low (that's the reason i got Tom to remove my trks, i was fed up of people voting 0 on them), this gets my 5.

Whirlguy responds:

thanks for the review:) youre the best!
