[Everything-[Hard Rock]]

Sounds good

The only thing this song is lacking is some kind of vocals and I thought of some while hearing this. Will have to write them down or I may just forget them which would be bad as well. This song just sounds great and makes you want to headbang a little bit as well.

The guitar sounds incredibly amazing here and I like how it turned out. The bass line is simple yet relaxing as well. The drums are very nice and they please my ears too so good work. The synth sounds kind of spacey and then when the guitar riff comes back in later it kind of makes me think of the Foo Fighters. Awesome.

Overall, awesome and rocking beat. Could also work as a boss tune.

Thanks! :D

[<EagleGuard> Electro Allegro]

Kitties

For no obvious reason at all this song kind of makes me think of kitties dancing to some super cool tune or something close to it. Aside from that I see this as a really great tune. Kind of sounds like background music that would be used in a 90s anime of some sort actually which is actually pretty cool now that I think about that.

The xylophone sounding synth sounds great. The bass sounds extremely deep here though and I have no idea if that was intentional or not. The xylophone kind of makes me think of a circus at one point. I like how soft and chilled out the electronic drums sound here.

Overall, very soft and dancy.

EagleGuard responds:

Kitties dancing to my music? Interesting idea =p

I made the bass sound that deep on purpose. Thought it'd be a good idea to actually spend a bit more time on EQ'ing than I usually do.

Thanks for the review!

[[Kieda] Reflection]

Awesome

This turned out to be one wicked beat and I enjoyed every last moment of it as well. The way the beat goes and flows feels really good and for some reason makes me think of strawberries and cream as well.

The main synth with the fast note play sounds soothing and nice whenever the second one and a piano come in and calm down the beat even further. The bass line is very sweet here and feels great. The drum line finishes this sweetly and nice done dance beat.

Overall, great dance beat.

Kieda responds:

Okay, thanks.

I find it quite ironic tho that I was actually looking for a lot more critic feedback, as I want to get better from this, but what I got was 2 people telling my song is awesome. Well at least these give me motivation to continue (:

Thanks again :D
(at least I know what is good in this!)

[Eric Freeman - Pickle]

Subtle

Starts out very calm here. The ambient sound of a 70s beat I see. Actually this sounds like a beat from a horror movie in the 70s to 80s. Kind of makes me think of Phantasm which was alright but never really made any sense to me at all. The whole beat is just completely creepy yet ambient at the same time.

The drums kind of creep you out a bit and make you wish to hide under your bed as if something was coming after you. The synth and bass lines are great here since they darken the tone of the song greatly. Like how around the two minute mark you added another synth that kind of makes it feel a little less scary and a bit more on the corny side. Then it goes up to being light but it still feels a bit creepy.

Overall, creepy horror tune.

lmfao, I never thought of this song as creepy. I tried to make more of chill background music. I guess I failed. :P

[Minor Light - Passion]

Relaxing boss battle

Have no real idea why but I can see this as an excellent boss battle song all the way to the end. Kind of reminds me of the first and last Seymour battles from Final Fantasy X, both were intense and annoying since he kept getting healed constantly.

The loud bass line comes in clear and sounds very nice so good work there on this. That turned out to be a really nice charm here. The synth lines both sounded incredible and the drums finish it all off wit ha relaxing tone to make you feel better if you had a bad day for the day.

Overall, soothing bass line and boss battle beat!!

Wow thank you for this nice review :)
I dont know much to say lol since you summed up most of it. And as you heard, I spent quite awhile mastering the bass to make it sound good... And I was in no way aiming for some boss battle theme but im glad you think it would fit there :)
So im glad you liked it!

[Xyirx - Dragon's Burden]

Relaxed

This just makes you feel real laid back and relaxed incredibly which works out nicely for me I guess since I don't hear many upbeat songs like this often. It doesn't sound incredibly upbeat but it does make you feel pleasant and relaxed as well too. So great work in that part.

The many classical instruments I can never recognize come together as if forming a friendship and just think of how to make people feel better and this beat feels great in a lot of ways as well too. I really think you did an excellent job here on this piece.

Overall, bliss.

Thank you for your feedback. :) I'm glad you like it.

[F!!king Nasty! NG Mix]

Nasty >:D

Wow this had a freaking great start to it and then it kicks up to an amazingly better beat than I was thinking of as well. Sounds kind of like a JDance kind of song as well kind of. Sounds like something I would hear on DDR except I have no dance pad I can use sadly so that is a little less fun to have while dancing.

The synths both sound great as they trade up with each other in between to voice coming in and saying "nasty" which was cool. The fast bass line and drums were also rather amazing. I liked the part where the beat got incredibly fast here. Kind of felt like a running chase scene moment there as well.

Overall, nasty!!

Dj-GST responds:

JDance haha sweet!

Man I should totally load this into DDR, thanks for the idea :D

Yeah man, Hardcore is the best for fast stuff :D

Glad you liked it man! I'll be submitting a House track soon so keep an eye out :D

[MoL- Face the Darkness]

Video game

I can truly see this as a video game song. Makes me feel incredibly happy but also makes me think of the Legend of Zelda at the same time with whatever those high note pieces are. I think this could make a great loop for a game. Possibly as credit music or a boss theme or even just a level that the player has to go through with. Great work.

The drums sound great here with the little triplet notes I hear. The synth sounds awesome but then suddenly not so much when it cuts off at the end sadly. Could have made a great loop if you had let the end segment run the full course of itself which is great. The tune altogether sounds awesome!!

Overall, great video game beat!

MeteorManMike responds:

Thinking I should maybe rework the ending and repost it. Once I become ambitious enough. Which could be quite some time :P Glad you liked it!

[Plains Theme]

Great piece

To be honest there was such a large amount of instruments used here I don't think I could tell what parts make this song sound good and what parts make it sound awesome. I can see this being used in a very old turn based RPG game for the SNES as well so you did something right here.

The drums and orchestra sound like bliss here as they start up the beat and provide happiness to the tune. The steel guitar sounds quite astounding and well done so not much losing there anyways, cool. The many other amazing instruments that I hear kind of just feel like ear candy and invite the listener to just sit down and enjoy the beat while the play some games and whatnot.

Overall, I feel impressed with this piece.

Step responds:

Thanks! You focused your review around the instruments used which is great because I find this to be one of my best in terms of instrumentation.

I worked on the drums so I'm glad you like them! Echo worked on the orchestra except the violin at the end and I can't seem to remember whose idea it was to use the steel guitar :P.

Really glad you enjoyed this song. Thanks for reviewing man!
