[HW - Prototype (VG)]

Not bad

I would add a part for a drum break though so you can really give it some life rather than sticking to a conservative drum beat that always feels like it's holding back.

haywirehaywire responds:

conservative drumbeat? im not sure what your trying to say.....

[[SP] ~ Beautiful Universe]

Alright song

But way too long for my tastes. Pretty repetitive throughout and I'm not a real fan of the drumbeat. Still not bad so I'll give it a 6.

Blizzaine responds:

Cool,

Don't even bother reading the authors comments

You're awesome!

Keep it up.

[A Genious In Thought]

LOL you spelled "genius" wrong

Still not to fond of the actual song. If it was leaning more to an ambient feel, then it would probably better but the instruments point more to techno or just modern day randomness.

DjSquanto responds:

thats the point, it means an idiot

[nF-Never coming down remix]

Overpowering instruments

The instrumentation is way too loud and overpowers the vocals. Really takes away from the song in that aspect. Other than that this might make a good club song LOL

NeuralFusion responds:

its because of the quality 128. sounds shit load better 320

[The Determination of a Hero]

Good song overall

Sounds like a fanfare style piece to me. I think it would have been good if you added harmony or supporting chords via the synth brass instead of restricting it to monophonic meoldy the whole piece. Still a good song worth listening to. If you reupload with a stronger feel, I'll be happy to review again.

Bobkabilla responds:

I appreciate your feedback! I'll try to give it a less monophonic feel next time.

[Blue Too New (DaBaDeeDa R]

Clap is overpowering D:

Seriously it was way too strong for my tastes. The song itself is pretty good and would make a good club mix. Also why does the beat start to desynchronize later on in the piece? That really threw me off.

ShadowsOfLight responds:

Yeah I don't know why I did that. Mixing with Virtual DJ, whilst using my melody and leads and all, Was a bit tough running on almost no sleep haha but I got it done just a little rough around the edges.

Club version will not have a lot of the beats you hear, it'll be a lot more trance-ish and upbeat. Which will be released some time next week. I'm mainly a web designer haha here's the "band" site: http://thegenreless.thestreetgods.com hosted via my car club site.

In the club mix it'll have it will all be in sync. It'll be a lot easier to control the club mix then this slower one, I'm used to fast pace.

Which part was the most out of sync do you believe? I know towards the end there's a part where the vocals kick in again out of sync.

Thanks for voting / reviewing!

[In The Alley]

Not a terrible song

Not so great either though. The drum beat seems to be pretty basic IMO. Not really a fan of some of the instruments either but that's only cause I'm not a techno kind of guy LOL. Anyway it's not as bad as some of my old songs but I'm sure that as you keep making songs and keep getting better, your songs will improve in quality and complexity :D

LavitzSlambert responds:

now that's the kind of comment I like ^^

thank you for the feed, I've got better songs then this one in the past (check out my ambient one, A drop in the ocean, people like it :P)

But yea, back to this one, I guess i still have a lot of things to discover with music-creation programs ^^

thx again ^^

[Radiance (Demo Version 3)]

Amazing song!

Love the instrumental and beat. Some of the lines of the lyrics don't seem to match up too well to me though. Besides that an awesome song! Gets a 10 from me.

Xayro responds:

I'm glad you enjoyed it! It is a demo, so there are obviously bound to be some errors. However, when you say lyrics, it's probably not going to be something that changes. The vocals are off slightly at the end of the second verse, if that's what you meant, and that'll definitely change. I appreciate the input :D

[New Age Of Sound Djsrz Djbacta]

Yes it is amazing

What could only be done in a grand orchestra of 100+ musicians can now be done in your basement through a single computer. The song starts off kinda dull but starts to get interesting at around 1:18. It's a relatively simple song with no bass or distinguishable chords but a nice song to listen to nonetheless.

srzsmack responds:

hmm.... i wonder why u cant hear any bass, i actually lowered it because it was distorting the song but there was too much nonetheless... try listening to it with headphones.
