[|Tetris D-Small Update|]

Sweet >_<!

This song can NEVER be too fast >_<!

I love this song as much as I love hot patatoes with sour cream! And thats saying a lot. As a kid I grew up on Tetris, so this roxed!

5/5'age from me. The crazy jump into the intense beat was also extremely appealing.

Gave you a 4 on originality, cuz its not your song, but the remix side roxed hard!

[The Scars Remain]

Sweet >_<!

The melody and heavy air the piece held was amazing! I'm not usually into this type of music, but I loved listening to this. Congratulations on a piece extremely well done.

My only suggestion.

When you record the guitar, there is a slight level of static that comes from the recorder, its not a huge issue, and its easily solved. There are several programs out there to cancel static out.

Also the drums got too loud, I couldn't hear the guitar at all, regardless the guitar solo was amazing! I absolutely loved it.

5/5age from me.

[DarkA - Psyhodellic delight]

Constant beat.

its supposed to have a constant beat Tebone7!

I quite enjoyed it, the progression was indeed a tad slow, but was worth waiting for.

The insane effects and sounds just jumping out was what really made it enjoyable for me, quite the experience. Keep at it.

DJdarkangel responds:

Thank you Maestro :)

Well this isn't really one of my best, but it just sorta bursted out of me while i was trying out some new samples that i got :)

Cyaz
DarkAngel out...

[DarkA - feedback (loop)]

Neat.

so tense...

I didn't quite like the chord progression, however it does make for a good beat.

DJdarkangel responds:

IF i fix it a little if you ask me :)

[Glorious Return]

Quite enjoyable.

This piece had a heavy flavour of chaotic randomness. Not random, as in, the notes made no sense and distrubuted randomly, but random as in it kept me guessing to how it would go for a long time.

90% of the time, I can guess what the next note, or how the melody of a song will go, this kept me guessing for a while.

There were some bells in the background, I feel if you made them much deeper, resonate much more, increased their volume dramatically, it would give a "divine" feeling to the piece, the 'return' of a 'glorious' warrior or king.

Again, you've easily bypassed my standards. 5/5

Slayer-of-trolls responds:

Thanks alot for the review.

Yeah, the background piano didn't repeat the same line really. It's a litte different everytime and the harp changes alittle too. I try to make my songs somewhat unpredictable. I don't like music that is overly predictable. Too unpredictable and it's chaos.

The bells, I think, are my least favorite part. They make it sound more chessy than I wanted. So I'll definetly try that. I was stuck on this so I was hoping for some ideas.

[Rebirth of Dawn 2]

Bittersweet Rebirth!

exceptional melody! I think this is my favorite amongst what you have here. Because I loved this so much, I INSTANTLY turned to uber critical mode, where I try to find fault. It was very difficult, but here goes anyways.

I think the high pitched piano notes should be accompanied with some heavier, lower notes. Even just a repeating deep note would make it resonate more. Like what you did when the strings took a little break, and the heavy piano notes came in for a short time. If you did something like that for the harp/high pitched piano note, I think it may improve the piece.

However when the high pitched piano notes first come in, keep that, that was good. I'm referring to when the piano comes back, add a little extra flavour to it.

The piano solo at the end was a bit off, I would have ended the song with just the fading of strings, or a harp and piano duo ending. I LOVED this whole dance with the strings harp and Staccato strings (I think they're Staccato).

The only reason I've written so much, is because I geniuenly care for this piece. Congrats, keep them coming.

*5'age if more from me*

Slayer-of-trolls responds:

Thanks! I'm a fan of your work.

The pizzicato strings and harp is my favorite part too. It sounds like it's tripping and then it comes back around agian. I originaly had a piano play with the longer melody in a lower octive.

I'll try that but it probably won't be for a while. I'm getting sick of this song.

Thanks for review

[Nation of the Okra]

Nice

I feel the bass might have been a tad bit too loud, it overpowered a lot of the instruments. However I do understand that you tried to create a dark (black ambient) track, I feel lowering the bass a bit might help enhance that effect.

The fact that its also extremely loopable extends its power.

Keep them coming.

Slayer-of-trolls responds:

Thanks. I was trying something new.

[Dark Intro]

Very impressed

For a song you made in three seconds, its ALARMINGLY impressive.

The guitar and string duo fit too well for my words to describe.

I am a huge fan of the guitar, and to hear it live like this only made it all the more enjoyable. You have to email me and scream when its done, otherwise I may have to harm you.

For some reason those Fret noises only added to its overal beauty...

I would remove the crash noises, it disturbs the air the guitar and strings produce.

Volume levels were mastered

Track placement and mixing was mastered.

5'age from me. Great stuff, keep them coming.

Slayer-of-trolls responds:

Wow thanks! Really? I don't know, this song was done sooooo quickly but that's great that alot of people seem to like it.

[RETRO TECHNO]

How strange.

Hmm, definatly not your best work, but i'll tell you what I really think, because holding back will not help you.

The beat was solid, here is my advice and personal thoughts.

The beat was solid as I said, however that rapid repeating noise started to get slightly irratating to listen to.

The blend of instruments was extremely unique, however this time I feel that the instruments didn't belong well together.

The song has intense potential, it has a lot of interesting sections that made me perk my ears for careful listening, it doesnt deserve what it got, its not that bad, don't let the others let you believe so.

You've just gotta keep going at it man, eventually you can rise above them all ^^.

poo-on-you responds:

Haha don't worry about it man, this song isn't entirely serious anyways ^__^ One of my friends one day was like "hey, make a retro song!" and I was like "well whats that?" and he was like "well, it has to have lots of hits in it and a crazy bassline".

So yeah :P Anyways, it's most of my other music that matters to me, but if you really think it has potential I might check into it a little more.
