Kingbastard responds:

cheers fella;)

[Indulgence]

nice

some weird unlogical synth melodies and distortion issues but apart from that it's a pretty good loop. set the volume in the song down to get rid of the distortion. pretty good little loop

Alcohol1 responds:

thanks, your review is really helpful. i'll consider it next time.

[Karco - Miracle]

Nice

Sorry that my review wont be half a long as your usual ones, but I don't feel like mentioning every single thing about it right now. Well I'll just start with that the lonely start is pretty cheap sounding, that kick alone juse doesn't sound awesome. When the kick and other drums are playing together it works good though.

The bassline is good too, I love the bass synth you're using... >:( I need some of that bass myself :( The little break with strings n stuff did incredibly well for the track, maybe a bit long, but it doesn't bug me too much. Now that dreamy synth lead comes into it again- and it builds up. Nice going there. The snare you're using in the rolls are a bit thin.

good stuff as always, keep em coming

or review me back

lololol

Karco responds:

Nah, it's fine. Any review is nice, especially when this is only the second one since I submitted this. I need to go and review more, and get people to listen to my stuff... :P

The introduction was a failed attempt at a progressive-ish intro. I'll be sure not to pull anything like that again... ;)

I also like the bassline! :D The plain synth came with Nexus, and I went and arped it on the piano roll. I probably added some mild FX to it, too - Fruity Parametric EQ 2 and stuff - but the .flp's a nightmare to open and I'm not going to bother checking. :P

I didn't like the buildup too much. :\ It felt a bit rushed, making it, and if you'll listen to one of the songs that I've linked to in the news post - try Glory, which was the chief inspiration for my buidlup and climax - the buildups sound a LOT better. They've never been my strong point though I'm glad you think it worked! :) Snares tend to be a bit thinner in this genre, but next time I need a snare I'll experiment with other kinds. ;)

I'll definitely stop by your page and listen to your stuff. No guarantees concerning reviews, I hardly ever have that kind of time lately. :( I'll try, though! :D Thanks for stopping by to review.

[NightBreaker]

Coolio

I love this tune... the synths and fx blend perfectly, and the weirdly lfo'd thingy has a calming melody that I really like a whole lot. The drums are good too, but a bit much of the same pattern maybe. Good samples, sounds realistic. Harpy thing was a real nice touch too. Overall awesome stuff in my opinion, I love it

review me back lolol

[Ancient Dream IV]

Coolio

though this really isn't techno at all, it's a pretty cool tune. The choir does sound a bit synth made, but it does sound good though. The filtered little detuned saw thing is cool too. A guitar substitute does sound very synthic, maybe a synth lead would do better justice as it doesn't really emulate anything- I don't know... You're definatively on your way to becoming a great artist, so just keep it up and you'll see lots of awesome stuff coming right out of your program. Great song.

review me back lolol

Kid2Will responds:

What kind of music would you say it is?

[.pot roast.]

hai

this one's pretty good. Interesting atmosphere in this one- I think I can notice about every drum sample you used, but I don't mind that really. The arp you used is nice too, and the fx and everything all mixes pretty well in the track. I can imagine this going for some alien person cooking a meal in an alien kitchen or something- at least that's the image I get. A bit short maybe, that's it for negatives I can think about

review me back lolol

VegetarianMeat responds:

It's pretty obvious when someone use Reason to make a song huh :P ? Thanks for the review, and gave you a review for your most recent song.

[bust4]

well

I certainly didn't enjoy... I don't even think you submitted it to the right genre... it's just some drummage with the same annoying leads going on and on. this song could really use to have some more than the same detuned leads- the whole thing seems random and unconstructured (not in the good way) and too minimalistic.

there's some good melodies here and stuff, but sadly there's so many bad parts swirling around it- sorry for the low scoring review :/

[Rig - Glitchy]

Oh yeah

3.75+0.17=3.91 the score now take that

Rig responds:

:-D
Still, not a very constructive review. lol

[-PFTBD- Alone in my House]

Cool

I like the drums- though the intro pattern thing was pretty awkward, the rhytm is groovy and catchy as soon as the main part of it is there. Funk bass sounds a bit off the tempo. The organ has a pretty cool melody, but it's just the same 2 bars over and over isn't it? You have a lot of stuff in this tune, and I like the way you add everything on top of each other. Nice tune you got actually you know that

review me back lololo

[Microsoft Sam 2Pac Remix]

HAHAHAHAHA

Absolutely awesome :D
