[Ambi Vibes]

yay!

you made something that's not a vg remix! yay! I love this song. It's worth a download. Pretty awesome use of pads in it. the rhytmic synth is so great too.

Nice synths later into the song too, chordish.

Percussion is very great, but if you made it a little less tight and reverbed it somewhat it would sounds crazy good, especially for the ambient feeling.

It's a tad short, ambient songs tend to be long, but I see why you didn't continue this, it's very repetitive and sounds hard to do anything with at all.

^_^

I fixed up the drums and subited # 2. thankyou for the review and sugestions.

[Ultimate Basshunter Song Remix]

kickass really.

I did review your track but it happened to be half a day later XD

the start has this annoying clipping, but it doesn't last that long. Very nice chord lead, but the melody you had after a while sounded mroe like the classic kick buildup for techno and dnb songs... which you very cleverly used a little later into the song.

the drums later on are good, very simple yet effective as hell. Nice piano and other orchestral references here.

It goes on though much repetition. then there's this new part. More clipping. Ooh harp... cool.

then there's this awesome part with poly synths and all. Now it sounds more anthem-like than anything else.

Holy fuck that got annoying after a while, with the square wave kicks... now it's getting all corny and seriously sharp. It's hard to listen to because of the bas quality and terrible mastering. Sorry, I can't go any farther.

I don't want to listen to basshunter songs but I want to listen to this song instead. so could you please upload that full quality mp3 somewhere. :3

x-Exodus-X responds:

i will send it to you if you give me your email. its much too big to upload onto the sight. the harp and non-basshunter harmonies/melodies were made by me, the whole distorted kick gabber part was made by DJ Davinster. thanks for the review, glad you liked it overall!

[.:I will:.]

Overwhelming indeed

sounds like you took a speech out of somewhere without doing anything... you could always remove the noise but maybe you kept it there on purpose.

There is so much reverb here, the reverb makes a new pad which almost makes a melody, but not quite. Good melody, very nice choir, how'd you get it like that.

and look who's talking about abrupt endings. >8(

RedHotPoker responds:

Lol almost a melody. I'm gettin slightly better. :)

Na the speach was created in speakonia with (guess what) reverb boshed on the end. So yes it sounds shit but i like it all the same. :D

The choir was just slowed down from a recording i found on my hard drive.

And as for the abrupt ending, WELLLLL EXCUSSSSSSEE ME. ( I suppose i was a bit hypocritical but i'll stand by my words.

[Karco -- Falling Farther --]

HI KARCO ^_______________^

YAY HI KARCO ^_______________^_^_^_^_^_^^^^ your name isn't very original btw

okay for the review I guess...

The piano in the start sounds like it's being played on the radio... or even like you recorded it from something else... what did you do with it. It'd sound much better if you made sound closer. The melody is good, I guess you're knowing how to play it well since you managed making a melody like this. It's smaking harmony with the rest of the instruments and melodies, but it's a little hard to go further into detail when the song is as short as this. When the strings come in it makes an impression of something huge forward on the song, so does the sudden snares (which might like some reverbitation and softening). But it never goes any farther than that point. I think you should continue on this one. It's really short. The end of it has a very cheap singe noted string, I'm surprised you didn't use a chord there, or at least made it a minor octave deeper.

eww long paragraph

Overall this is a great idea for a song, and a very good way to make drama into a piece. But I don't think this is enough as a whole song. I'm seeing it's a "bit" of your latest so I suppose you'll make it longer.

Karco responds:

Woah, what? Crazy smiley. I suppose it's what I get when I haven't submitted for a month... (Actually, I think my name's pretty original. Would YOU have thought of it? :P)

The piano sounds like that because I filtered it that way. Don't worry, it's my composition.

You made the right assumption with "bit of my latest..." almost. This is actually the ending of a song that's more than twice as long which I'm not going to submit. It really doesn't do the rest of the song justice but stood well on it's own, so I thought I'd submit it.

Not much else to add... thanks for the review, SBB. :) I should be getting around to reviewing your two latest which I haven't reviewed in the near future, too...

[TAA-IDMish lol]

I JUMP ON A BIG BANANA AND PUT MY DICK INTO IT

This is quite a good song! The snare thing is really overdone, and the pattern you had in it is so nonsense and irregular it's hard to hear anything in it. If you had it quite much lower in the mix it would sound better and allow people to hear the rest of it. Strings are good, they're making the job as a pad though it isn't. Most synths are good. The other percussion is really good and airy here I want to hear more of it plx kthnx

damn you have a lot of audio

TheAmateurAnimator responds:

Yes, I have a lot of audio, but all the good stuff is on the first page.

Thanks for the review.

[Waves of Sound]

or wat

You like playing up and down on a kind of synth or piano thing and call it a wave of sound don't you

BlackPlastic responds:

AYE NUCKA YOU WANA FIGHT YOU LITTLE SPIK no Im just kidding your cool wanna come to my house and make bouncy bouncy sometime?

[Mood Synth (From SynPianical)]

okay

a little bit unstructured, but it's good! Loved the changes in this song. A little bit trance mixed with much ambience and some orchestra. The parts start and end a little bit off each other, but that's the only hing I can see wrong in it. This is pretty long, which is good for this kind of song.

I dig for sure

(You know that the filesize of this is higher than actually possible? You're not supposed to be able to submit files over 4 mb but you actually managed to do it. :)

Musical-Kage responds:

Thanks SBB for the lovely comment :)
I wasn't expecting one so soon.

I'm glad you like it. What do you think it needs to get it more structured?

(Haha...well on my computer, it shows less than 4mb, yet when I tried to upload, it showed more. Still allowed it though :D)

[-=LJC=- PartialBirthContortion]

hmmm

Partial Birth Contortion how can that be.

In the start it sounded like a track that was NOT made by a mental pasient, but then it evolved to the same audio nonsense as usual.

The percussion is seriously remarkable here, it sounds almost like you never used the same fx twice, nor the same rhytm... except for that pad thing in the start and through the song.

or something I think maybe dunno really etc abc 123

LJCoffee responds:

None of my tracks were made by someone who is NOT a mental patient.

Thanks SBB!

[Rage (loop version)]

This song smells of >:(

Now this be really angry (I should've turned my speakers down from max first). I don't know a lot about guitar etc but the start really sounds... wobbly... but else this is great stuff, really liked the drums here. loops excellent for being live recorded and mp3 too

Good luck in the contest!

(this is my 666th review >:O )

DarKsidE555 responds:

OMGS! It's teh 666! I'm gonna diezorz. D:

Thanks for teh review mate! >: (

[TAA--Duel of Valor]

okay

so in the beginning it sounds like there's all these big fights and all. There's nothing wrong here, the mix and instruments generally sound good. Combination of all melodies are very good, there's nothing I can complain about. I loved the BIG percussion here, and it would probably work out with some very small fading out delay on it. After what I can imagine it would sound more epicismic. The only thing in this song I didn't like very good was the female choir, which sounds bare, and synthesized. All the other choirs are good

I'll do more later today k

TheAmateurAnimator responds:

My choir has never been that good, especially in the extremely high register (like C7), but it will have to do until I get EastWest Symphonic Choirs in five million years.
