[Hard Hamonic (unfinished)]

pretty good

it was pretty cool, but it kinda switched songs if you know what i mean. in the middle it seemed like a whole different track put right in the middle.

the sound of it was pretty good otherwise though. i like the middle a lot better than the outside. the outside isnt bad though. maybe if you added a good transition between the parts itd be better :)

[The Aurora Borealis]

sounds more video game like

i think the reason the person below me said that its not trance is because there isnt steady bass, and it is slower. So maybe you could call it a general techno. I like the arp synth that comes in, and the beat is really nice, its just not trance ;)

pretty good. i would add a reverb effect to when it cuts off instead of an arupt ending, personally.

Ill keep your suggestion in mind.

[[T] Awesome Guitar Tune]

good start

its a good start. the solo is really cool. the intro is fine and all and the guitar sounds pretty good. however, the solo guitar never comes in to blend with the song and be the focus of song. it sounds like its quiet and distant from the rest of the music.

the melody is cool, but i dont think it sounds that good with the song. i think it needs a lot of work to blend well and sound awesome. also, i didnt like that crackling through the whole song :/ and there was also no percussion, so it seemed plain ;)

its a good start. 8/10 for the good melody

tomashcu responds:

yeah I FUCKING HATE THE CRACKLE!! it only happens when i do it on a specific computer but i havn't got i net on my other comp so i have to do it on the shit comp

DAMN IT but oh well man

[<DjR> Elysium (Rawmin Remix)]

review for you

the intro was pretty good, but got boring fast. the repeat of that piano-like instrument, with no more powerfull synth fading in made it boring. Then when the melody came in, the synth didnt have such a good delay imo. It also didnt sound the best, and it didnt blend with the song very well.

The next part with 'ice' kinda instrument also didnt blend well, and the transitions were very edgy. so the melody part not being the best really weighed down the whole song. It needed better EQ and effects, and just better sound. the ending wasnt too bad. i dont think that the ending "elysium" was needed either. ;)

its okay

Rawmin responds:

Hmm... Talk about your constructive critism. All right, well thanks for the review

[Nazeres/Dreamland]

mmmm

i like your style this song isnt my favorite, but its a pretty good background track for something. i would use it.

i like this

[Water (Dj Sonik Original)]

aha!

i really like the style here. retro, but with a trance-type style mixed with it. really nice. i havent heard much like it really. although, i would recommend EQing the piano and some other instuments, because it is pretty darn fuzzy, mostly on the bass kick.

also, in response to nostromer, i think that its true that it may be forgetful for some, and some really enjoy it. but it could also be used for a flash or game, and in that case it would be good to have a generic theme.

i do really like the retro sound of the synths, plus the piano, and then plus the bass. just really cool. keep it up!

[] Canon in D Mix []

hmmm

i dont know. it sounds very midi-like/retro-like. Maybe a combo of those two. And also pretty fuzzy and just... not smooth. :/ i didnt really like it.

[Dark Conviction]

very nice

i like the style of this. it has a really cool feel to it :) sounds very professional and i think it would fit like a game like metroid prime or something like that.

i like it a lot.

[Nazeres/Eternity]

this is pretty good

i like it. pretty much the whole thing. i agree tho that it needs to be longer. .. but it isnt a club mix length either. its really good though. keep it up

nazeres responds:

i was testing stuff out, like the ladys echo, that was my couz.
Wer r actually planning to make a song together, since we are macedonian(idk how to spell it :D). We just started the project together. i do the beast and her band does the instruments. I hope u looking forward to hear it!

[Nightbox]

actually pretty nice

nice transitions and melody! i like the use of instruments and changing them up through the song. this song sounds like trance though. id say that maybe a little more ambience to it, maybe later in the song or something to change it up a little.

though, that one transition to the piano in the end i didnt really like :/ but the begining transition was really awesome. so, yeah :P its cool

SplatterClock responds:

Thanks for the review :)
I think I might experiment with ambiance on this and see how it turns out. I haven't done much ambient work but I'm not a complete failure at it.

You're right the end transition wasn't pulled off so well, I guess I got just a bit angry at how long this was taking :P
