[rap-base 4]

Some sick beats

Not sure if it has that hip hop feel though. I think a switch of instruments would be good. Give it a heavier feel to match the drums. Better than most I must say.

[Shameless words]

Nice try

Not that good though. Sounds like chords with inversions here and there and a really basic drum beat. Really wouldn't make a good hip hop song. I wouldn't suggest trying to touch this one up. Pack up and start anew and try to be more creative next time.

greedybastard responds:

I dont know what you are talking about... it was gonna be a sad song and with a advanced drum beat it wouldnt sound sad at all just weird

[Tetris REmiX!]

I think you mean...

Korobeiniki remix. The remix itself is alright but could be better. It was a nice attempt though. I would suggest trying to make it more complex rather than making it so linear. Here's an example http://www.youtube.c om/watch?v=zt71kfLM6io (take out the space).

sweet dude. i appreciate this! thanks!

[Descent 2 Menu Music [BETA]]

If it's menu music

I would suggest something more upbeat unless it's for something like an RPG or something. Also for menu music (which I think should actually be looped) it seems pretty long. To me it seems more like some in-game music for a TBS or something.

[Storm's over at the beach DEMO]

I was expecting a drum beat

To come in at around :45 or so. A bit disappointed that it was left plain but since it's still a demo I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

ccc75 responds:

I totally agree with you. I didn't want to get to carried away before I got some basic feedback. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

[Through the storm]

Not a bad song

Not a great one either. For some reason it feels really empty. It feels like there's always only one thing going on at one time. I mean it always feels like chord, drum, melody but that's it. Maybe a bit more polyphony to give it that little extra that hip hop has over other genres like metal and techno?

[HW - The Celts (non-album)]

Not really old school...

Not really modern either. Something in the middle to my ears. Incorporates the best of both worlds IMO. Scoring this as a 9.

haywirehaywire responds:

thanks.

[Ambient Industrial Song]

Nice song

For some reason it reminds me of superman and braniac LOL.

DomesticTerrorist responds:

lol thanks?

[Premonition of Darkness]

Unfortunately

I have to agree with the review below me. Though the low strings were a really nice touch to bring out a darker feeling, whatever that "tunk"ing noise in the background was pretty much screwed it up. Maybe slowing it down (a lot) and removing that "tunk" would make it sound a lot better.
