[Ballad of a dying man v2]

Could improve a little bit

For instance at the start I can hear something grainy, maybe the bass that is being a bit louder than it should be. Also doesn't sound too much like hip hop, sounds more like house, trance type music. The piano and drums are real simple and the bass doesn't sound extraordinary either sadly.

Sounds kind of like a melodramatic piece that is pretty sad and down feeling the whole time. Kind of makes me feel as if I had lost all the friends in the world and no one even cares that I was missing either. The gun shot at the end was also kind of random to me as well.

Overall, try to remove the grainy sound, and if you really want it to get more of a hip hop feel, try adding in some scratches, deeper bass notes, faster drums, and some other hip hop sounds as well.

Good luck on future pieces.

Crazy hilarious

I can really see where it would have a carnival feel to it. at the same time it sounds very chaotic. Could see this as an epic carnival boss song against a boss who gets taken down in a bizarre way. The growling effects are pretty sick and the synth rhythm is crazy as well. The fast paced drums and spacey sounds I hear make this song all the more crazy.

I could slightly see it being used as a madness boss song in a way with the erratic beat going and all. Kind of makes me feel like I am trying to escape an evil carnival and everything is a weapon but the feel so useless until I figure out how to make them deadly.

Overall, crazy and awesome song. Brilliant laugh at end.

Thanks heaps for the review man! You completely understoond my song ! The first part of the song has the feel of helplesness in some crazy carnival with chainsaw clowns running around, and then the second part where the kindof dnb stuff begins, is where you begin your coordinated attacks haha , just like you said.

Thanks for the review man i appreciate it!

Rap and rock

Really chill sounding here and the guitar makes me think of Shadow the Hedgehog strangely almost as if you were doing the biolizard battle all over again. The song sounds really tight and the lyrics sound brilliant. How do you not get extra sounds on your mic such as it sounding you are too close or loud on the mic?

The drums, claps, and other sound make this song sound pretty chilling, tight, and harsh at the same time. The subject of the song seems a bit strange but then again it's probably because I don't usually listen to this genre of music too often.

Very nice work on this, really hope you do well on the mix tape.

[JBI - Fly away!]

Somewhat pop sounding

Even though it is composed of only classical instruments it kind of sounds like a pop song as well like the ones heard in all those Disney movies. The bells and violins sound rather charming actually. The drums and percussion sound brilliant and give the song a bit of extra life to it. The trumpet sounds quite awesome as well.

The song kind of gives a feel as if something great in your life has just happened and a lot of people saw it and they all feel victory and feel some of the same feelings you do at that moment. Really nice and upbeat classical song as well. Brilliant job on this.

Strangely, it does sound kind of cute as well.

I love that the song created images out of thoughts for you, exactly what I wanted to accomplish trough this piece. Thsiii u called my bells cute xD

[The Wind and the Rain]

Nice transparency

The piano sounds nice and I hear a sound layered over it but it kind of gives the piano that extra boost in a way as the slight wind sound I hear from time to time seems to make it sound nicer and more upbeat as well. Kind of get the feeling of just getting up and feeling a lot better about the week/month/ and life itself.

The piano was beautifully played and composed it sounds. How long did you spend on this anyways? the computerized voice sounded alright as well. Great job on this piece, wouldn't mind hearing another one. Good luck for future piano songs.

This took me about three hours, and I'm still working to improve on it.

[Stargenx - Lament]

Well composed

I found this to be very well done and sounds like splendor and peace at the same time. Kind of reminds or makes you think of a time where you were alone and feeling victorious for something you had been aiming at doing for years. Yet at the same time you feel sad as you have no one to share the victory of it with.

The piano and strings were put together and seemed to do a lot of wonder for this classically nice piece. The overall flow was very peaceful though and just gives you the overall feeling of joy over everything else and towards the end you feel a bit sad.

Very nicely composed song. Sounds excellent and blissful. Good luck on future pieces.

Thanks for the review. This was a song born of emotions for me, so it's much deeper.

[(CS3) - Stroll on Tenth A]

Outlaw music

It sounds very jazzy but kind of has that outlaw feel like a new person just entered town and everyone finds them shady since they don't fit in just yet. At the same time it kind of reminds me of the second town I go to in Pokemon Colosseum as it had this kind of music playing except far more faster and jazzy as well.

The bass, drums, and strings all come together and make a very nice sounding piece of work to me. Very nice work that you have done here, keep it up. Good luck on future pieces.

Thanks for the review, well appreciated!

Glad you enjoyed, and the outlaw feel was exactly what I was aiming for, so I guess I got it right!

Cheers

[What in the Fuck? (Chromanut)]

Pretty chill

The beat is solid and chilling actually. The scream was kind of scary and then it just gets creepier with it getting bit tuned. Reminds me of those runners from Doom 3 actually who were giant and had rocket hands. The crazy vocals, and synth sound excellent together actually.

The drums and bass were pretty solid and helped make it loud. Very pleasing job here and not much improvement is really needed. Looking forward to more.

Funky

Kind of does have that funky jazz feel as if I had just entered an old looking club and people are giving me odd looks for simply walking in there. Enter the wrong room/bar much?

The saxophone, bass guitar, and violins, along with drums all seem to come together and it sounds great. Got no reason to not like something like this, it's good and kind of helps you feel relaxed and chilled out.

Would make for a great menu song or credit music anyways.

[Blood on the Monitor]

Terrible

There is no structure or anything going on. If you want to make a song with FL that is cool but please don't just slap together some sounds, it kind of makes my ears hurt a bit. Spend some time getting use to using it, then slowly put together a beat that sounds good to you (I'm pretty sure this didn't sound good to you at all..} and submit it so others can enjoy it.

as far as I am concerned with this piece, just a background effect sound, some loud keyboard space sound, and some heavy house drums all playing at the same time and being compressed and squeezed togehter don't sound very good at all.

Remember my first time using FL ages ago, good times. However please do spend some time getting use to the program and then try to figure out what sounds go good togehter and what sounds don't.

Good luck with making music in the future.
