[Aura Within]

Brilliant =D

Love it.

I'm a fan of the two different tones/melodies you had going at once at several points in the song. It was especially interesting how you blended the two contrasting melodies in a way that minimized (but didn't TOTALLY get rid of) the chaos of having two different melodies going at once by simplifying one as the other became more complex.

At one point you had the "low" melody play a sustained note while the "high" melody played it's, well, melody, and then you inverted this, and went back and forth with that a few times at the very end.

Interesting work you've made here, thanks for the song =]

NeonEntity responds:

Yeah I decided to mix things up a little and have fun with it.
Thank alot for you comment :)

[Electrologic (NG Cut)]

Great job!

Great song, I like the overall feel the bass beat you had throughout, and the general style of the song.

Two thumbs up =D

DJ-Qwamii responds:

Thank you!

[Madness 6.5]

You've done it again

I've gotta say, all of your Madness temes have been some of my favorite songs, and this is going right up with the rest of em =]

I like how it was a fairly fast tempo background beat, yet all of the "main parts" of the song, the melody and the other little flourishes you threw in were all in a much slower tempo. It gave the song a kind of energizing, hopeless, and kinda chill feel.

I like the pickup at 4:45 as well, it just felt and sounded right. I'm a fan of the various samples you used in this song as well, it's a diverse little orchestra you have going there, between the synths, chimes, and whatever else is in there that I don't have a name for =P

My only gripe is that this song doesn't loop, and I feel like it could potentially make a pretty amazing sounding loop, but that's just me, and it isn't a big enough deal to rate you lower =P

Overall great job on this submission, I look forward to your future stuff =]

cheshyre responds:

Why thank you! I'm glad that you like the music. I look forward to your future comments

[Lufia II: Boss Remastered ver2]

Very simplistic sounding

The "Guitar" sound was to repetetive, simple, and dominant in my opinion. It detracted from the actual song quite a bit. I think a different, less biting sound, or at the very least, much less volume on it. It needs to fade into the background a little more; as it is now, it's too dominant, and like I said, it makes the whole song sound over-simple. Beautiful work, just try to fade that guitar into the background more, or change the tone/sound of it.

jamesadalpiaz responds:

Thanks, ya, still trying to find the right settings for distortion on garageband.

[Laser Tears of Science]

Interesting =D

It has this strange, poppy Megaman-ish feel to it at random times. Like you bunched 20 different Megaman themes together into one song. I liked it =]

GameBalance responds:

I like some of Megamn's themes :)

[Kazmo - Vermilion (NG Cut)]

Loved it =]

I like this alot! The repetetive background sound is great, and I liked how you made it bloder and stand out more about halfway through. The little flourishes you threw in are great.

Kazmo responds:

Thank you very much, I'm glad you enjoyed this. :]

[[DJ_ITD] - Blacklight]

Sounds familiar...

I'm not necissarily saying you copied this song, it just really reminds me of something deadmau5 did, or maybe it's just really deadmau5-esque.

Dunno.

But I like it =D

djInTheDark responds:

Great minds think alike. But seriously, no, I would never copy (at least with not with out the proper recognition). Scratch that, I would never copy period(.) I think you thought that because so much House sounds the same. But I actually tried to avoid influence on this one, so it would be completely me.

Thanx for the review

[Our World {durn}]

I'm a fan =]

This is pretty damn good, and I'll have to agree with the other's that said you've got Daft Punk-esque sounds. Your bassline is prettymuch a dead ringer for a Daft Punk song, and your overall melody sorta reminds me of their song Aerodynamic a bit. Granted, it's also very different from what they've done, it's slower paced, and your drum beat doesn't sound much like what they'd, but that's not a bad thing =P

Enough with the comparison. The song itself is solid. It seems a little boring and repetetive at the end, but the overall song is good enough to cover that. I like your drum beat, what with the lack of a 4 on the floor beat in liu of a more unconventional beat. The bassline is just awesome. The overall melody, as I said, get's repetetive and boring, perhaps a bit more variation, or adding some other patterns in would help, but it's not something that absolutely must be done =P I like the melody-ish thing you introduced at 2 minutes quite a bit, it adds to the funky feel of the song =D Overall, good job. 10/10 from me =]

Keep up the good work =D

durn responds:

well, thanks dude. though I gotta correct ya on one thing. a 4 to/on the floor beat is exactly what I -did- use in this song. :) the shuffle from the rhythm was coming from the hi-hat samples & loops I was using coupled with the fact that I was side-chaining the loops against the kick.

glad you liked the bridge! :) thanks for the review!

["Something"]

Nice.

While I usually hate industrial music, I'm really digging this track. The bass and the snare is just tight, how it resonates through the whole song. Then you start up with this second set of drums, or just plain change what you were using before, and then the melody starts up. It's just a tight song that I may have to blast while driving now =P

crusherxt responds:

haha thats whats intended for! and thank u that u love the song. the beginning is just a pure blow out =P. im a big drum bass guy so that was most of my attention to that but in this song it was mix, i guess i just had all the right ingrudients =P.

But im really glad u like and thank u!

[[LK] Euphoria]

Amazing =D

I really really liked this song. It's catchy, and repetitive enough, while not being overly repetitive =P It's upbeat, nice tempo, and it's all around good =D

LK412 responds:

Thank you very much!
