[-ganon95- Basshunter song 3]

sounds like a complete MIDI rip

i give you a 5 for the ideas in the intro and maybe the kick roll near the end and the synth choices are a little bit less of decent.

sorry this doesn't take much skill.

ganon95 responds:

this wasn't a midi, i watched the basshunter tutorial and placed the notes

[Fredgy - Eurodancer {Remix}]

Risky

You did a decent job with this remix. But you should always becareful of remixing songs that are popular because there is a 50% people will either hate or love it.

Anyways I really liked the ideas you had in this remix, but i didn't like some of the synth's you used. Some vsts you can check out are: Sylenth, Nexus, and Vangard. thats all i use so far anyway and i'm pretty content with them.

My favorite part was around :50 although the bass synth you used there wa super bland :P.

8/10

5/5 4.39 / 5.00 (+ 0.0080)

Fredgy responds:

thanks :p
ye i know :p and that risk i wanted to take because i wanted to remake that song x) i didn't like the long ' solo bass thingy ' part in the original =$
i've got them all but i wanted to try without any of them this time x)
you also can see for guardian or z3ta+ :p
i also got taurus i think it is called for basses and massive :)
yet some others too but i forgotten the name :D

ye i like that part too :p about the bass, i tried, but i'm now with broken speakers and a half broken headphone x)
he doesn't hear any bass or clipping or something no more =s
so i need to try each time sending it to a friend :p he needs to say if there is more bass in it or not x) and if it is, if the bass makes the song clip :p
i hate it that i can't hear it anymore =/
=D
thanks though ;-)

Amazing...

This is honestly one of the best peices of music in the 21st century. This song puts nothing but joy and emotion into my heart and I am automatically pulled in. Life would be so exceptionally better with your music spread across the landmasses, for the starving children in africa will have something to tap their feet to, the Russians to trepak to, and for every man's musical pleasures. Possibly all world concerns can be solved with the epicness of this song in all it's glory. Thank you sir, there is indeed a God watching over us.

Really when is your CD coming out? Your last album was amazing,but this is a tough world where it's hard to get noticed and have a decent looking hooker. I envy you Rockyface.

rockyace42 responds:

Thanks for the 10, but I wish you would give me an actual review, and not a premade one, you stat-whore! I'm glad you enjoyed my last album, especially because it doesn't exist! Don't worry, I'll get a decent looking hooker, I saw your mom walking the streets last night!

So yeah, I appreciate the 10 but next time if you actually listened to my music, I would appreciate it more.

[A Bleak Fall Day]

beef jerky :D

Hey this was a nice little song :D! First off i really have to say that the instruments in here are soo.... well from your description you already know. Your using a program right? Well with that given i have some suggestions for some life like sounding instruments. First off you can buy the east west orchestra packs or you can check out this this ( the one i use) EDIROL. It has everything you need for a song in there but there isn't too much variety in the instruments which sucks and for some reason it never saves my instruments when i close my program, i use Fruity Loops Studio 8 XXL by the way. Maybe it doesn't work too well with FL studio.. anyways i liked this song... I don't think it's fit to be a loop because of the silence in the ending and the way all the instruments finish up.
Alright now onto the song...
I'm not sure of the feeling your going for.. although the melody sounds a bit cheesy to me but that's probably because of your sucky instruments ><. I think the horn really killed it for me, and the piano was alright although there are better sounding ones. Sorry if this review seems a little biased but i usually like classical/orchestral songs to express a certain feeling, and the film scorey ones almost always touch my classical music g-spot. Anyways i thought this song was nice... :)

7.5/10

5/5 (YAY) 4.50 / 5.00 (+ 0.35)

I'll be checking for more progress and music from you :D! See ya!

Eonomine responds:

Thanks much :D Wish more people would write reviews like this :P But yeah, this is not my favorite piece, just thought I'd start posting things :) I think you may like my next one more, it has more of a story woven into it (I hope at least). I'm using Garritan sounds, the horns aren't the best I don't think, but at the moment I can't afford to buy any other program.

[Cataclysmic]

As soon as I heard...

I thought this was going to get 9+, but some of the piano notes and that weird instrument thats come in around the first 10 seconds also is really awkward. I REALLY loved the percussion, it sounded bad ass with this with that awesome gritty bass. the piano does really accomodate the other instruments ><, trying browsing some synths for something more darker, something that could almost go in a GOA trance song. OVerall i thought it was ok!

7.6/10

5/5 5.00 / 5.00 (unchanged) :D

JebusAndTheHolyYoses responds:

Thanks for the review!
I can see where the piano may not be a fit... I like it but I suppose it is a matter of opinion.
This is the first song I made where I used a lot of VSTs, and I'm still searching for a lot of synths, if you have any to suggest let me know!

Thanks again for the review and glad you enjoyed the bass and percussion :D

[Novus Vitae]

WOW!

The intro was really cool and catchy. It brought me right in. I think you used a gate for your lead which i thought was a great idea. I loved the counter melody plucked arp sounded very trancey. The bass was okay, nothing too specia but nonetheless good and it didn't take anything away from the song. Around 1:40 the break was pefect timing. I have to say that the structure of the song is very professional. At 2:30 is my favorite part of this song, i love the way you introduced it. It had so much energy and was rising all the way up to 3:04. The gate that you made is really awesome. Great job man you have a really nice quality trance song here. I think if you worked on it and touched upp on it some more that this could get labeled.. The only thing i wasn't digging was the ending, in my opinion it was too sudden but i could probably see that this song was tiring to make.. This is honestly one of the better tracks on NG, I have to say i really love the melodys here..

Some questions...

What Vsts and plugins did you use to make this and what program did you use?

Are you going to finish this? Because shit man if you don't I'll cry.

And could you have the time to review my song called Midnight Illusion(WIP3)? :D

Anyways the score lolol

5/5 4.14 / 5.00 (+ 0.015)

9.9/10 ( would have been a 10 if you finished this baby up lool!@!@!@ )

Can't wait to hear more int he fuuuuutuuurrreeeeee!

nal1200 responds:

Thanks for the lengthy review!

1. I'm using Vanguard, Zeta, Sytrus, 3xOSC, and Adventus
2. Lol I might..
3. Sure thing!

[[LK] Summer]

I'm not going to be as harsh

This song didn't remind me as much of basshunter, but i do agree that it lacks efffects, mastering, and your own original sounds, but hey who doesn't use presets? If you put more effects in it would probably have been more original but there's always time to add that. I do agree that the song has terrible choice in presets, the bass just sounds terrible and it sounds like every other bass in every other dance/ hands up songs, especially Basshunter, nostalgic huh? Honestly the Basshunter style is so generic that i feel its almost inpossible to make it sound original, but kudos to you on the decent melody even if it does have some Basshunter influence.

Overall I think this is better than most of your stuff but very very repetitive in my opinion and the repeating bass just sucks balls.

6.7/10

LK412 responds:

ugh.......

I don't know how many times i have to tell you this, Basshunter is not an influence of mine. The authors comments says i tried to give it a Dj Splash feel.

This is definitely not my best work, i dont know what songs of mine you've been listening to but this is pretty bad. But i didnt realize it after it got top 5.

Thanks for the review.

[Sungazer (OM)]

Great song!

The first thing i really liked about your song was the bass and the drums, the subby kicks and low bass sounded great. The pad breakdown to the pluck breakdown was very nice transition, but the anti climax is really big teaser for me but just in my opinion it was not needed but it still gave a nice touch to the song. When the melody came back in it was really nice and fun to listen to. I really loved the sidechaining in this song but maybe a bit less would make it sound more dreamy/trancey. I really liked the structure and melody of the song alot, and i really think the sidechain was a huge role into making it sound great, but of course everything else was nice too, and the way you ended the song was perfect, nothing sudden or awkward.

overall 9.5/10

5/5 4.42 / 5.00 (+ 0.034)

My grammar is probably fucked so I hope some of this makes sense and helps :D.

Kr1z responds:

-Bass and drums: aay, worked hard on them. Thx!
-Pad & pluck breakdown: I put alot of effort in these and I'm glad it worked out :)
-I'm not sure about the anti climax :D
-I could lessen the sidechaining a tad.. That might indeed be better :)
-Sidechaining is indeed a huge role, I'm glad it worked out. And glad you like my melody too :D
-Ending indeed nothing sudden, just slowly ending.

Thx for the review!!
