[House or Trance?]

be careful with those white noise side chains they can often overpower the piece and become a dominate part of the song and that isn't what its meant for
the piano was nice but there could be more depth. you only have the piano melody it needs a harmony or counter melody to let if float and really become a good piece. also try some more intricate note placement not everything has to be on the beat. there are all sorts of melodies that are not on beat.

EternalEndeavor responds:

hey man thanks for that, great feedback. Ive noticed those sweeps are overpowering when I listen on other systems...but ive only got my computer and a stereo system for reference so sometimes i end up giving more high end to the song, or power to effects like those sweeps.

[-KA89- Peripheral(WIP)]

ok so some key things you have picked up on the way 1 it grabbs you before 20 seconds are up which i think is very important. 2 your progression was very nice the transitions flowed very nicely. 3 it was layered with a lot of different synths not just a single melody harmony drum thing there was what 5 synths in there thats good especially how you warped some of the synths.
key things you need to work on 1 after the first grab you need a jump to elevate the song and grab the listener even more this jump is usually about 30 seconds after the first grab. 2 this one is hard so you dont have to but if you can add a sub harmony and elevate it into a counter melody or even into the main melody of course that tactic is fairly advanced im sure you could do it your getting really good.
my opinion personally. i love it but the piano in the beginning needs to be messed with also FINISH THE SONG!! please??

Kyleadam89 responds:

haha, thanks, does it really sound like there are 5 synths? because after the piano part cuts out it's all the same melody layered with 2 synths. I worked hard on that melody, I hope that doesn't destroy the song :(, but I have a couple of different versions in the works trying out different ideas so it may take awhile to finish this one, but I'll try to apply your suggestions, and hopefully the finished project lives up to it's potential . . .as a side note, in my typical fashion it may be unpredictable what I come up with, lol

[First Techno ~Arrival]

it needs some more progression its too plain right now

MidnightSugar responds:

i don't understand what you mean.

[ECHO - Eye of the Dragon]

[- Watch the Sunrise [Wip]]

if you can make it longer and make the ending stronger with more emotion then ill give you a 10
i absolutely love it i just want to see it finished

Or4nges responds:

Huge surprise for who's finishing it with me ;)

[Atado A Ti -Mister London]

i think you need to focus more on the music in this song it all sounded nice but the vocals over powered everything a bit

SUB4RU responds:

That's the dumb thing about commercial music, the vocals use to be louder but I told the sound engineer to turn them down. He didn't agree but they were way too loud before this version! He said they stand out perfectly if played in a club and not listened to on home stereos...

[My Quiet Place (Updated)]

Gravey responds:

ya know

if you send each one to me ill be sure to review each one and cheer you on along the way

i cant imagine making a song every day

try not to milk yourself dry of creative juices

its part of the reason why a lot of mainstream music isnt as good anymore

i like this song its calm but it still moves quite a lot

it puts you in that feel good mood

Michael425 responds:

Haha thanks for the support man. I'll try not to run out of ideas. I'm hoping this project will do the opposite and give me more ideas. We'll see.

Thanks for leaving a review. I'll make sure to keep you updated.

[-KA89- Illusion Pt. 2]

double review

your getting really good btw

ok im not trying to change how you make music personally i love your crazy spontanious music style but you need to try to add a reoccuring theme in your music
still be stontanious but bring back some old melodies from the beginning of the song

Kyleadam89 responds:

thanks, I'll try that in my next song, and see how that goes lol, but thanks again
