[Für Mattias]

Song has a really nice rhythm and I liked the dynamic drum sound near the start too. Song seems to have a feeling as if telling a story of someone waking up and getting ready for some kind of fun party later in the afternoon or during the night.

The buzzing breathing like sound kind of makes the song sound as if it were alive as the person went about their day having a great time getting ready for the party. Really nice sound for a song like this.

Really like the deep funky and fun bass line added making me think the person is just dancing at random times during the day for no reason other than just having a good day since waking up. What kind of bass is being used anyways?

The drums are good and the way they seem to trade off with the main rhythm and then quick triplet to quad hits on snares and hi hats is really nice sounding.

Getting a bit later into the song, like the slow build up of backup sounds and the new synth creating a nice plucked beeping sound that makes the song even more feel good. The deep sounding noises make me think of Daft Punk a bit for this song too. Greatly done rhythm for the song.

Overall, very much an enjoyable song that makes you just feel relaxed while listening to the song and enjoying the day. Great work!!

Thanks for your review, I'm sorry I haven't responded yet.

I really like your idea of the song having a story to tell, I couldn't had put it better myself. I appreaciate the feedback on the bass and the drums as they are some parts I worked alot on. I like how you're saying you feel relaxed when listening to it, thanks alot man.

[Samantha - These Dudes]

Really nice punk song and fun to listen to. Should have a music video going with this one too.

As far as vocals go, I'd say that the singer could maybe go over towards rock a little bit but his singing sounds mostly as if it will go best with this genre of music.

The guitars sound really smooth and I like how the rhythm is nice to listen to. The bass also sounds really good here too. The solo was pretty great, maybe could have slipped in a tiny bit of tapping for fun.

The only off thing about this song is the drums sound a bit too sloppy as if the drummer was playing at his own pace rather than trying to play completely in rhythm with the rest of the song unless the drums are meant to sound sloppy for most of the song.

Overall, aside from a little bit of problems from the drums, this sounds great! Music kind of reminds me of New Found Glory.

We're working on a music video actually! Nothing too serious. Thanks! You're the first person to compliment the bass aha! I'm glad you liked the solo, there have been a few complaints about it. Hm, the drums being "sloppy" seems to be a common point by people.. I'm glad you liked it though! We'll use all this to improve in the future!

[Moondrops]

The main melody seemingly reminds me a pirate sailing song actually. I guess you chose the beat and decided to run with it and make a new song altogether. Song really puts you in a mood for listening to while in the rain in a car. Very nicely done.

The main melody of the synth repeating itself is nice and calming and sets the tone for the rest of the song to play. The bass groove is very mellow and seemingly feels like single long notes playing throughout the song. Then comes the chorus which gives that strangely dreamy feeling as if listening to an older 80s song. The drums were excellent, enjoyed the tribal beat.

Overall, excellent song for a rainy day.

Wow, it sure took me a while to see your review!
Although i personally think it would be an excellent song for a rainy night rather than a rainy day-but i guess that such deep and complex musical arguments are never truly resolved :)
Anyway, i 'm glad you liked it - take care man

[Arps Kitties and Bass]

Really like how it starts off as a party feeling song and then moves over to being slightly more pumped up. There is one thing here that seems to be rather unfitting of the song which was that one solo part where only the voice was heard, with the rest of the song it seems fine since it is being mixed in to sound glitchy.

The bass sounds smooth and very deep. The drums are nice and I like the quirky plastic sound that is heard a bit with the rest of the drum sounds. The main synth has a nice solid sound to it that seems to carry the rest of the song. Then the wind up sound makes me think of a boss battle while hearing this song.

Overall, aside from the voice being alone near the start, the song sounds fine.

thanks :D

[Off The Map: Piano]

The tune sounds very nice for a piano only piece. Makes me think of Final Fantasy VIII too. The melody carried out gives that feeling of hope. Just seems to be a really nice song to listen to. I like how the one rhythm given by the piano seems to be a forever going down pattern as if the notes were getting lower in tone yet not going that far down.

The main melody seems to come off as incredibly nice to listen to.

Overall, nice piano song.

CheckeredZebra responds:

Thank you for the review! Yes, playing this on the actual piano actually can be a bit difficult. At one point both the melody and harmonies directly interfere with each other, haha.

[Rich People]

This doesn't sound too bad at all. It does however sound kind of like a dull rhythm and some things seem really out of place on this song. For example the loud snapping sounds in the background seem to be unneeded and when that sound is not present the song sounds fine.

The drums sound good and the loud bass kicks are calming on the ears. The synth has a dream like feeling to as if you were relaxed and just having visions of a good day. The walking and reverb sound at the end was interesting. Bass was also rather smooth so good work there too.

Overall, aside from the quirky out of place sounding snapping, the song is fine.

Thanks for the review! I will work hard to make it more pleasing to the ears as you say, and less jarring. Thanks

[Solstice (Original Mix)]

This sounds really nice for a house beat actually. Kind of has that rave feel to it at the same time. Really nice beat and rhythm for this song.

The dancey synth sounds nice. What kind of sound was used for the synth since it sounds familiar yet with a rise effect added to it for a more dramatic feel. Then the reverb that happens after each note sounds really nice. I like how there seems to be a windy echo in the background giving the song some atmosphere and making one feel as if they were at a party too. When the one synth played alone adding a little echo made it sound like it was a very significant part of the song so good work there.

The drums sound great and I like the constant bass kicks too. The bass was also ncie to hear in the song.

Overall, great house song!!

Thank you very much for your thorough review! That single synth you speak of was a Nexus preset slightly modified.

[What Do U Want]

Excellent collab between your vocals and Omnivore/FurryNG! Don't think there is anyway to improve this either!

Poniiboi responds:

There's no way to improve SCTE3 as well.
