[Encounter (SEI)]

so..

i think this one needs some work some of the instruments just dont work and there is some problems with the flow of the song

there could be a little more progression and a bit more melody change

i do like the concept a lot though it can definitely go somewhere

Seifire responds:

Thats understandable. I felt like the flow sounded a bit forced instead of natural and i was having some trouble altering the melody change so i just submitted it.

[Fire (Elements)]

very relaxing

but personally i think the dnb parts of the song couldve been reinforced a bit

the bass was not very strong at all and the drums couldve hit a bit harder and played a bigger role themselves

Cobaliptic responds:

You're absolutely Right!

This is my very very first attempt at making a DnB song, and i'm a kind of DJ that focus a lot on putting a lot of details and Everyting in order to make the song look completely done, no holes etc. And playing with such samples (drum, Mid Lead, Bass, Piano at the end) was very difficult ^^. Remastering was really a pain in the ass and I think, even with the not that loud drum and Bass, I did a good job :o .

You should stay tuned, because i'm soon uploading some of my first steps in House Music! ^_^

[AuruxBlu - You Complete]

well

i liked this it was quite uplifting

the intro was very interesting because it had a different feel but when you get to the main song it cleans up nicely

AuruxBlu responds:

Thanks, appreciate it

[Kokiri Forest e-Guitar]

well

the guitar was too loud and overpowering and clashed with the other instruments also the guitar sounds kinda like a preset i heard on fl try to customize it more

7-Bit responds:

Ok thanks, I appreciate your review :)

[Ice Pop]

i liked

this its very dancy and uplifting good job

i didnt like that string synth you used though it just didnt sound realistic enough

megawolf77 responds:

Thank-you very much!

And I agree with you. The string synths I use were sounded too fake. My bad.

Thanks again!

[-KA89- Perpetual (WIP)]

this

1:07-1:10 i dont like the chord

the rest is turning out good

Kyleadam89 responds:

thanks, i've gotta rework some segments so i'll give that section special attention when I get back to it

[**Zelda's Lullaby**]

this was really pretty

i never heard lyrics to this song before

are these lyrics original lyrics or did you make them

either way if thats your voice then may i say you have a very pretty voice

its very soothing and peaceful

makes me want to take a nap :)

VGSongbird responds:

The lyrics are original.
And yes, those are my vocals ^_^
I'm happy to hear you enjoyed them.

Now go take a nap :D

[-KA89- Enigma (WIP)]

well

i think you need a little more structure in this song but this is really good it fills up nicely there isnt any spots where it just doesnt sound right

you need to work on transitions now

Kyleadam89 responds:

thanks for your review, I was gonna work more on the transitions in this song, I know it's a huge problem of mine, but I was gonna take a lot of time in the post production of this, try to fix it up better, but thanks again, as always your opinions are a very welcome part of my growth as a musician.

[Chaos This Time and dont wine]

add some

more builds and dynamics

it also sounds like it needs a second melody some kind of 8 bit chip tune thats fast short to help pick up the song and help it feel like its going the speed it is does that make sense

very good composition and its organized well too
tell me when its done

The-Cockenator responds:

well made it longer and yea its not going to be any longer soon im making new sounds to fit in but it takes time ;) but here is the longer version

[[Chaos Lord]*]

the builds

i think could have been a bit better

try building different instruments at a time instead of the entire song does that make sense?

everything else is perfect quality and mastering and instruments and mixing

dont stop keep it up

Solkrieg responds:

I understand what you're saying, but I did do that lol.
