[Evil-Dog - At The Rope's End]

Very good...

This was very good. I am very impressed. Although I was kinda hoping on a bigger climax. Good work though,

5/5

Evil-Dog responds:

Thanks dude....it's really more ambiant...but I agree about the missing climax :)

[Shockyoursoul;spookyscaryremix]

Wicked...

This tune was phat. Possibly a tad over distorted... but phat nonetheless.

Keep it up.

[Teh Funkyness]

For a loop...

For a loop this is pretty good. Firstly, it loops nicely. Secondly, it's nice and chilled but a bit funky at the same time.

The drums and pretty punchy, which is always good.

Not much else to say... its cool.

[sugar rush adventure]

Not Bad..

You've captured the essence of what gaming music is all about, although the sounds you've used are very midi sounding, especially the brass.

Musically you get a 9/10 from me but production wise a 5/10. So i averaged at a 7/10 and a 4/5.

Good work, keep composing.

vasis responds:

Thanks for the review.All of the sounds are factory sounds on my Yamaha Fantom-X keyboard and are embarassingly low quality.I actually got an orchestra
upgrade card for my keyboard today so maybe I'll be capable of creating stuff the way it sounds in my head now.
Thanks again.

[StereoTactik's DnB Tutorial!]

lol...

"That sounds nice, really gentle you know?" lol

[SexuallyTransmittedInteligence]

Brilliant, beautiful!

I loved this. 5ed it. The melody is so beautiful. The sample use is brilliant. Really well produced and well structured. I'm extremely jealous!

Keep composing man, you've got talent!

[Squirrel Hum]

Hmmmm...

I didn't really see the point of this... if someone were to make a flash animation of a squirrel then surely they could record their own SFX.

The sound quality was also pretty poor...

Conal responds:

Oh really?
Well sorry about this, I will update shortly.
Doing music mainly based on computers for GCSEs now I'm 14.

& Thankyou for not giving me the 1/10 that I deserved.

Thankyou for your review!

[LifeBringer--_--]

Phat tune...

This is a sick tune. Congratulations. I have to mention as well that i'm really pleased that you created all the drums yourself, I can't stand it when people just paste a loop in to their songs. Although I recon the drums may benefit from a slightly distorted driving hi-hat rhythm. I know you've got a rhythm over the top, but I think open hi-hats would maybe work well.

The bass line is phat. I can't really criticise. Melody is nice and driving. The strings add extra texture.

Good work, your very talented. I hope this review was some how helpful.

PERVOK responds:

I will try distorted hi hats. Thanks buddaye

A review for you..

As your new I thought i'd review. This track isn't bad but I wouldn't go as far to say it's my favourite song. The drums are execelent, so I really really hope that you didn't just find a loop to use and that your created these drum for drum.

In terms of melody, it's good but it it does get a little repetitive. This isn't always a bad thing, but i think towards the end it needs a change.

I like what you've done with the synths, but I personally found a few of them a little tinny. Your bass line is nice but perhaps not bassy enough...

All in all this is a decent drum and bass song, and you've certainly got the potential to write some cracking music!

Keep composing, Jimbobsthebest

Philanthropy responds:

Hey thanks for the review.

Unfortunately, yes I did use loops that I found on the internet.

And I'm not saying that that is necessarily a bad thing to do but I understand where you're coming from.

If I could find a drum kit I would be set for life. But I don't have a drum machine to do these things with. So for now, I'm using loops I find on the net.

[Sad Song (big Nasty)]

Congratulations...

Congratulations PigVomit, you've written a decent song. It's catchy, emotive and interesting to listen to. I would have perhaps been nice to listen to some lyrics, but thats your call.

Good work, keep composing.
