[Pimp Slap]

holy shit

best song I've heard in my life

cornandbeans responds:

haha thanks
I love it how the song's score is already at like 1

[Grey Lullaby]

grrrrroaf

I like the start- sounds kinda dreamy, floating. Bass is good too, very basic but who cares. Detuned saw has a great melody. The song sounds pretty much shifts between a sad and a dramatic style. Beautiful song, the piano did helped to make a great ending.

Anima-Theory responds:

Thanks SBB

Much hugging for you :P

[Fleeting Times - Experiment]

Pretty good

I like how you mix the guitar with other instruments. Though the guitar track could need some better mastering. The pads are good, the marimba, could be louder. Strings are off tune and way high. Drums sound so realistic and warm- great job on them! Overall a good song, but the strings kinda ruin the whole thing

Cosmos8942 responds:

That guitar was a 'fleeting' thing to say the least...in fact...this was a idea that almost didn't become a reality as a storm just blew through here and knocked the power out in the middle of me working on it >.>. Close one...I have pride in my drum sounds (I have really worked at getting good with them :]). Strings are off-tune? =.= that can't be good...I don't know exactly what you mean with the string issue above...but I will listen through the song a couple times to see if I can't find anything.

I will take all that into consideration...including the marimba! (you know your instruments well :D)

[[Kriz] - Revolution of dreams]

good!

Though the cliched title, this song is a better one among the lotta shit in the NGAP. I loved the kinda orchestral sounding filtered lead. I wish you had a fltered version of it going while it was on top. Kinda cheerful song, everything sounds happy- Not so sure if it's warm though. The base isn't too good. there's no modulation, effects or anything on it, so it sounds pretty boring. For the drums, you've done a pretty good job for techno/trance/dance drums, a repetitive beat but not only the boring kick-hat-snare-hat pattern

Good job on the song, it'd be nice with a review for my latest audo thing :)

Kr1z responds:

ur right, but im not very experienced yet! only my second song ;)
i'll try some modulationblabla next time hehe :)

[Mario Anthology]

gah

It sounds good, but the synths are so cheesy and overused... the acid synth in the last part sounds cool though. You use the fx well, btw, where did you get those? Too bad the parts usually hang verrrry loose together. If you worked on the changes of themes, it would be mad awesome. The drum samples are pretty good. Good overall song but not too impressing

WizardSleeve responds:

I don't remember, i made this in FL 2 or 3 years ago.. i dont even use FL anymore.. I will see if i can dig up a project file though

[× Hunt of Giants ×]

awesome

I love this dark tune. the filtered drums part of it reminds me of Paper Mario, somehow though :P
Choir sounds excellent, tubular bells do to, but they sound a bit high, you need them deeper, and octave lower or something. Strings are great, could use some higher chords for a dramatic effect. Good stuff.

Darknez101 responds:

Now you mention it, It does remind me a little of PM, I completely agree about the Tubulars though, As soon as the peice was rendered they seemed to shoot up in volume, Thanks for the review.

[A Train to Somwhere]

wow :o

this's a quality piece of song. the guitars sound so lively, great melody and riff or whatever work. I like that screaming modulated guitar later on. The drums too, are groovy and snappy

great work!

laggy-luk responds:

Thanks for the review :)
