[Orchestral DnB in 5/4]

....

I can clearly tell which loop you cut to make the drum loop, in FL.... Im not sure if that is a good thing.

Shigimatsu responds:

I'll admit, this was in my amen break stage. I did cut it to be in 5/4, in my defense.

[-:HaloTopic:- Straight to Mid]

Great track!

AI really loved the first part, but the drum and bass(literally) got too heavy in the second part. I mean even if the first part sound like House, it sounds like damn good house!
I not really sure what kind of feel you were going for, but i really love the first part, i think, if anything use the first part to make a whole different song.

[The 16th Hour (DJ Dela Remix)]

A Review...

He has a tendency of making his tracks very repetitive, but i believe half the reason is for mixing purposes.
This track is off of his "Lack for a Better Name" Album, most of the tracks on that one were pretty dull to say the least, but you picked an interesting track to "remix".

or the into take out that pad and let that fade in while the high frequency synth is playing-it just sound better-.
The kicks could be toned down a bit-in that they are a bit hard, make them more bass-y. Like tone down the cut-off or something.

In his song what breaks the repetition is a nice trancy melody, listen to it it's around 2 mins. I recommend putting that in your song, it will definitely give it that edge.
Otherwise everything sounds clean and nice. I like the sweeps and side-chaining you got in there. (very much like Deadmau5)

Overall, I'd say its less or a remake, more of a remix. Good job!
5/5 & 8/10

DJDela responds:

Hmmm, about the kick... maybe because I used Audacity to remove noise, and make is sound as close as possible, it didn't turn out quite as expected.

And about that trancy melody, that is exactly what i tried to replicate, but of course it can never be as good as his song.

Thank you for reviewing, I will, maybe, try to fix what you suggested... :)

[LazyDay]

Super!

The intro is very nice, i like how you stretched it into the notes. Nice mellow house beat, too.
Overall you kinda gave up the intro, so I'm not sure where this is going, it could cut into Electro House on the next build, haha.
So far I'd call it uplifting if anything, Uplifting House. Good job on the piano composition, although I'd consider changing it up later on in the song as it might get a bit repetitive...

djhoohaa responds:

yea i kinda uploaded it as it is cos i also didnt know where it was going lol. i actually composed this on a guitar, and it does have guitar in there just very quiet lol.
Thanks for the listen and review xD

[Dance Trance Minimal Whatever]

interesting...

def pretty minimal.
i mean it sounds like the bones right now. i can't really give it much of a positive review because it seems like ive got nothing to work with.

Don't likt the back-to-back builds. gets a bit repetitive, no real drop...you can work on that for now.

ChrisisD responds:

i know, it's still very empty at times. It misses alot. But then again this is a work in progress! Thanks for you review

[ParagonX9 - Chaoz Impact]

You are a true NewGrounds artist.

You still upload even before NG was populated by Dubstep and Drum and Bass.
So you have been uploading great tracks that everyone on NG can use for flash animations/games and you have not left.
I'm glad your still making great tracks that i can honestly say are better then all the dubstep out on here now. Recently a lot of my favorite artists that have been getting signed, have to take their music off and can't upload anymore, but not you. You are a true NewGrounds artists because, not only do you upload music everybody loves, but you upload music everyone can use. So its a never ending cycle the artists like you keep going. Thanks a lot, I hope you don't get signed anytime soon. =]

Keep up the great work!

[Dig! [RxKing]]

its good.

nice even loop, good throughout. Loops exceptionally well i must say!
Keep up the good work.
BTW: Im sure it'll find a nice home here somewhere.

RxKing responds:

Thanks a ton!
Let's hope someone can find it a good home. That's all I ever really want with my music :)

[Rise Down]

I do like it.

Good job sounds pretty good. Especially compared o the heavy metal out now.
Work on the vocals though...

Bret2009 responds:

thanks for the short review !

[Far from reality(sonicxtreme)]

To be honest...

Sounds like a bunch of trance samples i've heard before meshed together...

sonicxtreme responds:

yea they are meshed but not just planted there if you know what i mean

[FLip-flop]

very catchy!

But too much bass...

Father-of-Death responds:

lol but thats all the "black community" wants.
