[Wasn't Me [Trance]]

Great track!

This is defently one of the better trance track kicking around on NG, you really have done a good track, I love the sidechaining with the noise, real brings an element to the track which I really enjoyed.
Great work, keep it coming mate!

Or4nges responds:

I actually had the entire track sidechaining, including the kick. I felt it gave it a nice mesmerizing kind of effect.

Thanks for listening!

[The Old Man Sentence]

sounds epic

as the title suggests (as above) but obviously your vst;s limitations are letting you down, what are the limitations btw? when ive used demos in the past its uaually a time limit then your usage expires.
It really does sound like an action packed track, kind of like a flight scene in one of the Final Fantasy series.
I dont know if this is one of your limitations but your track sounds like it been muffled, it sounds like mastering but could be your demo VST/i's (I would think not but...)
Overall Great track, just need some full version shit and your away and creating!

Mau3000 responds:

Well, thanx for the review.
The Demo limitates some functions of the mixer and equalization (what explains the muffled audio). Luckly it don't limits the time I use.
By the way, thanx again =]

Hope ur review in next songs,
See Ya.

[Goblin Feast (WIP)]

Too fricken bad kid! ;p

sadely your going to listen to what this "puny human" has to say, as a matter of fact ill bet you $1000.00 dollars there aint shit you can do about it...think you can look away dont you...you cant, you may try but you will fail, I assure you, you have already lost $1000.00 by this point, pissed off? dont be...yet hehehhehe

Ok...I quite like your track, the scribbly bass is pretty funky with the woob woob and shit, I like your bit of melody that you use the violin stabs in, it reminds me of the horse races...that I bet on...and my wife left me because of...*sob sob*...Also your tape stop at the end is a nice ending.
Overall its a pretty good track, a bit of this a bit of that and a dash of random for seasoning
Good job mate!
Keep it up!...or else the puny humans will find you :z

PainasaurusRex responds:

lol, thank you. And you were right, I'm listening to what you puny humans have to say, but you'll never find me for I am amoungst the gods. Anyway, I'm glad you like the track :D

[[JL] Sandstorm]

not bad

its not a bad track, I dont mind it at all, also I havent listened to your other stuff either so its a bit hard to say wheer it belongs but its certainly got its funky bits and it mixes it up throughout to keep the ear interested.
Good work mate!

JohnLeprechaun responds:

Thanks, man. I'm glad you liked the song.

[Woodman medley of melodies]

Yay!

Im so happy now :D I just wanna run onto the road and hug all the incoming traffic and slap a grizzly bear!

Very fun, need to be in a vidoe game with a cute main character, maybe something pink and cuddly like a care bear or a kirby!

darcdebo responds:

Lol thank you.

[Evil That Doesn't Sleep]

ZZZZZzzzzzzzzz

ah wah, sorry just fell asleep for a couple of minutes there, I had this wonderful dream was in a death metal band playing satanic chord progressions to Satan and his legion of demons, then he bought T-shirts and cd's off me for him and all his little minions and I made a fortune...it was awsome, so this track ;)
Great work! keep it up mate!
5/5 10/10

Lublub194 responds:

Not sure if that's quite the idea I was going for, but I'm glad you appreciated it none the less.

Thanks for the review man!

[Floating_On_Air]

Spicey strings

not a bad track mate, very cruisy then the breakbeat kicks in just to spice it up a notch!
btw what was it going to be advertising?
because I really feel like a Sprite right about now...was it sprite?...you can tell me ;)

Thefallen198 responds:

It wasn't anything you would have seen. It was a team building thing where we had to create a commercial that would be presented in front of higher up's in the company but unfortunately i cant tell you anyway. ;P

[Movie Trailer Theme Alpha]

halo anyone?

I think you have done well, before the high synth started it reminded me of halo ;p
Are you looking at making a movie or something like that? I can see it maybe going on an action/sci-fi or maybe a war movie.
one last thing your drums/bass seems a little bit muffled they need to be opened up just to bring them out a little bit more.
Great work keep it up.

montehawks responds:

I haven't touched this file in months... perhaps i should finish it :D

[Unfinished Work In Progress]

90's techno ;p

I think you have done a good job, good structure and progression.
Besides maybe some critiquing on your mastering I think your tracks about ready to be dished up, thats just my opinion.
Now on to the next project ;)
Keep em coming mate!

MatrixGravity responds:

Thank you for your input! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
And yeah i think the song still needs a little more flair and adjustments here and there. I'm not fully content with it yet. But yeah. thank you (;

[Tzu - Memories]

Kewl :)

its definetly got the trancy feel you were after, and you dont seem to have any major mastering issues and what ever steps youve taken seems to have worked :) I would personally make your main synth more brighter to livin it up a little bit and give it a little bit more character.
Overall you have placed a great first submission for 2011 and look forward to seeing what else you got cooking.
Keep it up mate!
