[Album Preview: Intensity]

This is an excellent sounding preview and I enjoy it goes through a medley showing what all is on the track. The songs seem to have a rave and dance mix to them which makes this an excellent preview. Positive that the album will be well worth listening to for all the songs, how many tracks did you put on the album by the way? Excellent medley track showing the previews for each song there. Have fun with more in the future!!

[TIGER M - Honey Hive]

Sounds like a Hive mind kind of thing and the tune has a nice -_-_ kind of sound at the start with the bee buzzing effect I am hearing. Slowly and surely other sounds come into the song and make it all the better to enjoy as time goes on too. Once the buzzing stops the song gets really neat to hear.

The drums have a pretty nice beat to them, the shuffling and clapping seem to go well together for a beat. The piano in itself has a soft rhythm with a hard note from time to time which seems to be pretty awesome here for the song.

The guitar sounds like a live recorded one which is pretty cool. Sounds a bit like it has a computer chorus effect applied to it on the amp giving a cool sounding effect to it as if bringing the bees all together for the song. Guitar sounds really nice to listen to. The bass seems to be really soft here providing a light backing for the song which works rather well for this song.

The distortion effect I hear later in this song around the four minute mark is rather interesting since it gives a feel of distortion as if something was happening to the hive for a moment. A slight delay on the drum track actually turns out nice since it sounds much more alive when hearing it.

For the rest of the song the rides along smoothly and gives a feeling of the hive working together to gather honey and fend off creatures trying to take the honey from them.

Overall, interesting song to hear.

[CLAB - AxTekk vs FatBeats]

Really lovely background beat, sounds like a mix of rock and rap which is pretty cool. I see AxTekk just suddenly jumped right in and the random sounds make him rather interesting to listen to as well. FatBeats comes in but he has much stronger lyrical skills in this song which is most interesting to me too. Strong workings too and then when AxTekk comes back on it sounds like he is trying a little harder to get some words in. He does well when coming back in though. Layered vocal use is cool too anyways.

However, for overall victory, my vote goes to FatBeats for lyrical rhyming and great comebacks. Excellent background beat too, pretty awesome!

[CLAB - BSerious vs Scorch]

Hear the beat and I liked it quite a bit which was great. Scorchpoknee had some great rhymes but his voice kept making me think of a cyborg speaking strangely, maybe it was his speaker? Not too sure there. Then B Serious pretty much comes in wit ha very strong entrance and comeback to him. Then Scorch comes back in with some good comebacks and rhymes and very fast speaking too. But as for him, he sounds great but would recommend cleaning up how his microphone setup is unless that is how he sounds every time he raps.

For the winner of this round... B Serious.

[CLAB - Jakobe vs Klazik]

The backing beat gives a feel that these two are standing atop a stage with a DJ while they look at each other trying to keep going. Listening to Jakobe he has a great voice for doing this kind of a vocal battle. Sadly Klazik kind of sounds like he was being random and disorganized with what he said which didn't flow well with the beat and just sounded pretty bad sadly. Should work on rhyming skills and come back the next time.

As for who wins overall, Jakobe without a doubt. For KlazikNadi, I recommend doing some more practice and then trying again.

[CLAB - Obsideo vs Raven]

Hmm, I listen to them both and Obsideo comes very loud and clear and I like how his rhymes roll together like quick sand ensnaring you in and then keeping you in to listen. MC Raven kept me highly entertained though because his accent sounds pretty awesome, really well done too. MC Raven had some pretty lines too and then Obsideo would come right back and get right back to him.

Obsideo - Great lines, great comebacks, excellent
MC Raven - Excellent comebacks, pretty awesome.

Pretty tough for me but my vote goes to...... vote goes to MC Raven!

[CLAB - Flip P vs TehSlap]

I really like the background beat and pretty sweet to see that you can credit where you grab audio from now as well. While listening to them both. I enjoyed how they both went but sadly TehSlapHappy seemed to be sounding a little off leaving flippoint just kept on keeping the words going strongly. Perhaps better luck next time to TehSlapHappy, Flippoint seems to have won here in overall content and keeping on beat too.

Vote - FlipPoint, best of luck next time TehSlapHappy.

[In Loathsome Territ0ry]

Really like the soothing beat going on here. Gives a kind of feel of just falling really really slow or just being able to relax for the day too. Tune makes you feel really good and the song is very light in melody and mood. Very enjoyable peace.

Liked how the bass notes seem to go up in a slow repeating rhythm giving the feeling of never ending and just sounds great to me. The aquatic synth paired with what feels like a slight echo ping pong effect actually sounds pretty good.

The drums are calming and the claps paired with some kicks in the place of what would be a snare is also very calming and kind of gives a feel of just clapping along to the rhythm. The spaced out feel to the song is just very smooth and completely calming. Excellent work here!

Overall, the beat is very calming and gives a feel of just being able to relax for the day. Very beautifully composed song.

Thanks SCTE3. Sorry I didn't respond to this earlier, but your feedback is spot on.

I wanted to create a really soothing rhythm, and the "aquatic" adjective you added in there was quite good. I tried to make it as calming as possible :)

Cheers SCTE3

[GA - Stoner Tears]

This has a very simplistic sound to it and I rather enjoy hearing it that way. When the acoustic guitar plays loud enough you can hear a bass line that goes with it which is pretty cool until the full beat comes in. When it all comes together it sounds rather awesome.

The guitar sounds great and that riff is great when paired with the piano playing giving a kind of rock and dance feel to the song. The bass line is really nice as well too. As for vocals, the random yelling just seems to make this song incredibly hilarious. Very well crafted song and the drumming is excellent. Best of luck in the future with your band!!

Overall, song is awesome yet hilarious with the yelling.

[(HoS) Action Movie WIP 2]

Really seems to tell a story in itself and very well composed.

Part A kind of gives a feel of things to come as you look overhead seeing the corrupt villains have somehow taken over the city and keep on brainwashing the people. The harp and drums seem to hold a feeling of getting hope as you put on attire to make yourself unknown to everyone as you go forth. The solid bass riff gives a feel of action possibly happening at any moment. The piano also gives a feel of getting ready to do everything needing to be done. As you remember what all started and begin to go forth and restore the city. The drum kicks give a feeling of slowly walking too, nice.

From 3:30 I hear a change in tone as it transitions to part B with just the sound of a piano playing. At this point the drums change up in beat to a battle march as the villains discuss their next move while you slowly enter the building looking for where they are to stop them forever but many people seem to stand in your way as they are brainwashed as well. The crystal synth sound has a feeling of hope being given as you slowly sneak up to there.

Part C has that feel of the final battle beginning as the bass kicks in and gets things started. Things slowly arise as the alarms go off and you take out the gunmen with the flick of your wrist. The battle keeps escalating until they finally come out bound and determined to kill you but you stand strong. The bass and echo sound I hear give that feeling of a storm determining what shall be happening next and the drums get a much more dynamic feel to them as well.

Overall, very epic story tune, nothing appears to be wrong hear, or at least nothing sounds wrong to my ears. Excellent work!! Can't wait to hear the final version.

HonorOfStyle responds:

Wow thank you very much!!! I very much enjoyed reading your review! The final version will include a Part D as a conclusion. I've been having a lot of fun making this piece. It's also been taking me a very long time to make. To tell the truth, what made me want to make a full on action movie piece started back last year in November after hearing PeterSatera's "'11 Artificial Intelli Evolved," and I was so surprised by just how amazing and professional it sounds, and for it to be on NG and not some multi million film just left me in awe so much to where I couldn't bring myself to make anything for about 2 weeks until I decided "I wanna make my own epic action movie composition, and make it the very best I can no matter how long it takes!" Thanks again for such a lengthy in depth review!
