[Halloween Theme Metalized]

Plenty of havoc!

must be some PREEETTY pissed off witches 'n skeletons 'n vampires X_x.

Heh, as usual the piece is PACKED with energy. I lovd the overal feel. At first I thought maybe the song could do without the repeating crashes... then as I listened to it more, it became part of the song, I was expecting them again and again, kinda hypnotic.

Thats a good thing ^^.

My only other suggestion would be to increase the volume of the guitar when the drums and crashes come in, I know it's there, but I can't hear it.

Still quite nice!

5/5, keep them coming Chrizzly.

Chrizzly responds:

Hey,thanks man! packed with energy....god what a compliment...

[The Ego is Broken]

Impressive.

it don't scream eva! But it was still friggen great! The strange mix of sounds and instruments definatly made it a worthwhile experience.

When that flute like instrument kicked in, for some reason, I began to instantly grow attached to this piece, and then the choir like sounds came to accompany it... good planning on your part, nothing else to say about that.

The choir pad like instrument you solely use as the song progresses was a pretty good idea, gave a nice tense moment, before you began to dive into the madness!

I quite enjoyed it S-Denjin, a great.

5/5, keep them coming.

ShinDenjin responds:

Great review man. I was going to name it something else that wasn't EVA related but I noticed NeonGenesis Evangelion: END on the TV and just watching the last few scenes inspired the tune and inspired the name. Thanks for the review man.

[robben ford type jam]

Groovy ^^.

so suave mister mhb. Truly the groove was exceptional, totally something I could get comfortable with... its a shame, I barely hear stuff like this, I should tune into it more.

Enough with rant, ONTO THE SUGGESTIONS! (and review)

the guitar was well placed, however I think it should get a bit louder, especially when that small riff comes in, and it begins to pick up speed.

You know, I was just dying to hear a saxaphone take it home in this piece you know, join the guitar and maybe have its own solo, it felt like that kind of song.

Everything else was just fine and dandy.

5/5 from me mhb, keep them coming.

mhb responds:

thank youfo the score and the input. i'll see what i can do about addin' other instruments like saophones and trumpets to some of my upcoming songs.

[Rip The Sky]

Good stuff.

well how can I argue, t'was VICIOUS as a bastard.

but don't use te stutter chopper on the drums, it made it lump and go off too soon. I'm all for the intensely fast beat, but that stutter chop has to go man.

Still, good piece, keep them coming.

Xiro responds:

Yeah I see your point, but at the end of the song, if the cut isn't on, the drums just turn into a rather unnatractive blob...that was the main reason I put it on in the first place.

[dj dragon} DONE]

Getting pretty good!

heh, right away t'was interesting with that straange arse effect.

The beat was something else in this one, and then the notes begin to fade in, this is where it begins to get interesting!

It changes a lot, which I noticed is a common factor in a lot of your songs, this is a good sign, I like to listen to pieces that have effort built into them.

I think this would work better under Ambient.

Suggestions... hmm...

Well to be honest, I don't think I have too many ideas for suggestions, its a stable, solid beat that really shouldn't be messed around with too much.

5/5 from me, keep them coming starfoxtechno.

FoxTechno responds:

Thanks again mate. another old song on my cassete tapes this was. so i cant fiddle with it anymore. im on my 35 cd now at home, with some of my best work i think ive done, ive got 6 more songs to submit. then after that, my best work. even some drum and bass coming soon. KEEP AN EYE OUT. CHEERS ALL.

[Warrior Night]

Sweet.

You were right with this song, it really was like the other loop, heh. Again it took me quite a few times before I realized it was looping, but im onto you now! It only took 5 times --_--"!

Heh, good stuff. Can't give too much criticism when its this short, but I rather enjoyed it. 5/5 for a good theme.

*Become a wrestler or something so you can use this theme!*

Chrizzly responds:

Hehe....yeah ill be the next Undertaker...lol....thanks man!

[Clouds of Darkness]

Pretty impressed!

And then the clouds split and FIRE CAME POURING!

Heh, sorry, the intro was truly catchy and thats the image I got when I first heard it ^^.

A good thing you did here, was keep that melodic theme until you had progressed well into the song. After you were done introducing the instruments, you jumped to another melody, gave a little flavour, and then returned to the original melody.

Good planning, easy to listen to.

Suggestions... hmm...

Though it was a good idea to use that original melody, I would advice using it that often. It gave the song a constant and reassuring beat, however in order to maximise listener appreciation, I would mix it up every once in a while, maybe throw in a Riff, maybe rearrange the notes, go into a hyper solo, that kind of stuff.

The drum beat was solid, nice work.

5/5 from me, keep them coming Chrizzly

Chrizzly responds:

That was one aweomse review...omg youre right....the fire DID come pouring...god how could i forget the solo...i was going to add a solo somewhere but i totally forgot it :(...thta mix up thing was a good idea...ill use that in "future realeases...if it was the same "mix up thing" i was thinkin about as u thought about...anyway thanx man...good that ppl are still reviewing, and this was (once again) an awesome review!

[DarkA - Trolls Unknown (loop)]

High Expectation.

what kind of forest O_o?

Heh, has an INCREDIBLY dark and tense atmosphere to it. I can't give you much criticism on only this alone, but I look forward to the song if you decide to make it.

Keep them coming.

5/5 for effectively capturing my attention with only like 10 seconds of sound X_x.

DJdarkangel responds:

hey there :)
Nah... i dont think this will make it as a song :)

But my next piece will be great... i hope it goes well here, i'm really putting in alot of thought on it :)

ANyways
Cyaz
DarkAngel out...

[WG-Radical Dreamers-CC]

Great stuff.

this was an extremely relaxing and intoxicating piece. I literally swam in its pleasent atmosphere for the better part of the hour. Very nice.

Hmm... suggestions...

Well I think the bass was indeed a bit too low.

The instrument choice was EXCEPTIONAL, I don't think adding/changing/removing anything would make the song sound better then it does right now.

I heard this rattle snake kind of sound somewhere, make that louder, it'll add more flavour >:P.

Volume and track placement were mastered, indeed this deserves nothing less then 5.

Congrats man, keep them coming.

Weapongod30 responds:

Thanks man! Hey, do you have aim? Or E-Mail? Cause then I could send it to you! Anyways, thank you much! And, I realize, that I had a version with the bass higher, but I aparently uploaded the wrong version, lol. T_T Thx!

(Woah. I said thanks, like three times in that paragraph, and if you include that last one, four times!)

[Eternal Night]

very interesting.

very raw, very powerful.

When I say raw, I don't mean bad raw, as in, raw emotions jumping out tearing at the listeners.

I understand how you make your music now, and in respect of your statement, I will not suggest anything, only my reaction to the song.

It was interesting, because the imagery I got was solid, but the emotions for that image kept flucuating, on and off onto different emotions (for example, I hear dark hatred, and then it turns to anger, then it slowly shifts to vile fear).

4/5 this time Misery, keep them coming.

Misery666 responds:

I am open to your ideas, I would like to hear peoples suggestions on improvement or what they think would add a nice element to the music like say a piano melody here and some strings there. etc. I appreciate you taking the time to listen and review my music. The descriptions of emotions and athestic's you felt in my music are subjective. I agree though, I express alot of dark negative energy into this song. The song sounding despodent and hyptnotic when the after the crash you hear a wave of different emotions through a void of despair almost. Thanks for the review and constructive critism.
