"not big on the guitar stabs,"

but I do like the rest, especially the drums, theyre chunky and very electronic-feeling :)

strings and flanged effects in the bg are a very nice touch too - good job of filling in the stereo field :)

however it is starting to get a bit repetetive, you need to change it up more - I keep expecting it to suddenly change but it never does..

ah there we go.. finally.. not sure if i like the tube effect on the new synth you used.. feels out of place with the rest of the song imo - esp. since it fluctuates in an awful way.

also not big on the drum stutter volume change at the end.

imo - the first half is good - second half feel like itstuttered and died :P

"it's nice.. but"

submission: -(Indigo-Bit-Shattered-Eyes)-

you have so much emptry space at the beginning that's just begging for some sort of ambiance in it.. like real world effects, like water or wind, or thunder, something to fill in that space and take away from the somewhat repetetive pads. You add more stuff as you go on, thich is good and helps to fill in that void - but the intro imo still needs work :)

I like the addition of coined 8-bit :)

I will admit it is very well put together and mastered so I was gonna give you a 9 but I'll give you a 10 :)

the panning can get a bit annoying tbh.. has an interesting feel as the song progresses though. Kinda kiddy cheerful feeling :P

now its gotten very.. almost high pitched 8-bit spacey -reminds me of the old arcade games :P

bells help add to that kiddish almost fairy-tale like feeling :)

and sorry about your friend.

beginning was a bit boring.. the main part that came after was cool though - kinda ethnic .. the part that came after THAT though didnt seem to fit with the rest of the song - the melody progression in the lead that is.. was kid of odd..

otherwise cool.

submission: Rêve de Ravers[Dj-S]

date: November 24, 2009

lol this sounds like B0UNC3's early work.. the eqing and filtering needs some work man - this is mad compressed and peaks on the percussion.. I like the feel of it - but I feel there is a bit too much "filler" in the song and not enough action.. gets better about halfway through.. but in the end sounds liek you tried to emulate "paradise on e" too much ;)

drums at the end are kinda weird tho - dunno If i feel they fit too well with the type of music you are gonig for.. they seem almost.. juvenile..

it's still alright though :)

submission: [e99] Fog of War

date: November 12, 2009

parts seemed.. off.. like the percussion seemed off sync with the main lead,.. the vocals were kinda kewl tho - overall though, not your best work imo.

after prolongued listening it's ok - the whole song is very muted in the clarity dept. tho.

The piano notes at the beginning needed veloity variety imo - instead of all nbeing sort of at the same velocity and then delayed - give it more dimension!

I could have also done without the high pitched growling not long after that but imo I feel it takes away from the main voice and kind of cheapens it - the low growling at the end was fine though.
also the whole mixdown felt a little.. soft? Almost as if you took a bit of punch out of it - it feels smooth and all but a little too mixed down imo - some of the rawness is gone :) - and the volume has been lowered below.. standard volume so that I had to turn it up to get that same feeling- esay on the compression ;)

your voice is kind of getting lost back there too - you need to bring it out so that it takes more of a center stage instead of - this is how it sounds - it sounds like there is piano ambiance all around - which is good - guitarists on both side - which is fine - but then it sounds like the percussion is in the same stereo range as the guitars - when it should either be right behind them - or closer up and more well defined - atm its being drowned out - and then it sounds like YOU are standing BEHIND everything so that all your instrumentals are actually hindering people's abilitiy to hear your voice.

2:35 actually sounds better - the highly reverbed in the background chorus is a nice touch :)

it's a great song though - and nicely polished - however - there will always be things to improve - you've come a long way my friend but you still have a ways to go! ^^

like a homemade birthday cake its beautiful but some of the designs aren't quite perfect - keep up the good work and keep pumping out those tunes dude!

I hate to ruin your streak with a 9 but I would kinda be cheapening my own voting system if I gave a 10 - although it's close to a ten ;)

the elven ears hath spoken!

lol almost sounds like Saint-Isaiah's the spirits within.. just the piano.

I will admit that you are getting better :)

I like the fast pacedness of it and the odd lead..

just needs some vocals now to make it complete - maybe j-pop girls singing in unison :)
