[Waiting In SpAcE]

reverses and reverb

there wasnt much variety till the second half, i kinda did feel like i was just waiting until then, i also didnt like the reversed crash symbol or whatever it was for your build up.

now for the good, for your 6th song this is not bad, you seem to be moving along well, this sounds like fruity loops, no?, the reversed parts you made were really interesting, keep experimenting with reversed sounds, you seem to be good at it, and its not common that people use them.

good job , keep'em coming

carl565 responds:

thanks alot, i did use fruity loops. i like reversed sounds alot, i think i should take the reversed crash cymbol out, i didnt really like it myself.

[The Game!]

loops :(

hey man i use garage band alot too but im just not a fan of loops, but it doesnt change my opinion of this song which is, that you need some reverb on the drums, BUT this song works for your description, i can perfectly hear and see what you have imagined, it also makes me thing of a character select screen on some nba basketball game haha, it sounds like somethingthat would be in a video game

good work, try using the effects some, i really like reverb and flangers

karpot responds:

haha thanks for the feedback and I'll definitely keep that in mind next time!

[Ecuador]

interesting

this song was interesting, the midi sounds pretty raw , some eq or reverb would be good on the main treble part, i liked the bass synth on the off beats and i enjoyed the drum kit and its patterns alot

good work

BowserThedestructive responds:

no its made from MIDI the instruments are self made synths. also the drums are a special kind i made.

[.X. Starlight (RemixX)]

surprised

i was surprised to see this remix, i like this song, i liked the sequnce on the synth around 58s

i like making remixes too but the last one i did that was good i got in trouble for because i used a vox track before i knew the rules

XenoxX responds:

Lol thanks got to love the love philter And again thanks for the review.

[.X. -Falling- Phase (full)]

resonance

i liked the kick on the off beat, i didnt like the amount of resonance on the treble synth, the bass was appropriate, i loved the piano, i liked the way it ended.

[!! Sky Dive !!]

reverb at beginning

i loved that drum with the heavy reverb at the beginning, it kinda set the moode immedietly, this is pretty good, nice work

srzsmack responds:

thanks for the review.

[General Tso Aint Chicken]

pretty good but

i like the reverb on the snare, nice beat, liked the high hats too, i wasnt too fond of the piano , it needed something more, but the pattern was good and suited the song, this was...interesting

JPhillz responds:

thx, i thought the same as u whe it came to the piano, but at the time i was stmped as to what to put there, so it was basically just filler. i raly appreciate the love though. thx =]

[Fireball Soca <><>remix<><>]

nice! latin!

this was really nice, interesting vocal track, i didnt like how the master volume rose and sank around 1:05, but that was my biggest complaint, you definetly kept the latin groove

[Dj Clayface Double Penetration]

electro

i liked how your bass arp was subtle, this was pretty good, i loved the choppy synth, this is a good song! great feel.

i kinda got an electro impression

this felt like a minimal mix to me, there didnt seem to be much reverb in the track, i liked the amount of resonance you put on the synth around 2:40 and i liked the key change

[Face Goa--_--]

HEY

hey i know you, we chatted on myspace but anyway, i always love your music, i like the arp you used for the bass, that is one of my favorite uses for this style.

keep those songs comming boy! and lets hear some more vocoding in them! perhaps?

PERVOK responds:

I LIKE THAT IDEA :D
