[My song sample]

...what!?...

This isn't a song...or even part of a song it's a warped sound sample...

Advice: If you're putting up samples of your work make it a REAL sample... not something people are gonna dissmiss as a joke!

[Lonesome City]

It was ok...

I must admit it's short... even for a loop

["Flare" - NR]

Oddly good!

It just feels like a lot of different things meshed together to create a strangley catchy song!
Well done!

P.S. I laughed about 20 seconds into this... It was your music that did it...:)

Sonicist responds:

Humorous? Catchy!? Fantastic! Thank you sir =D

[Piano In The Night]

Two slices of bread on a plate!

By that I mean you've fused an industrial sounding drum beat with a melodic and soothing piano track.
Nicely done! I don't think I've ever heard anything like this before!

Skyflyer responds:

It's a MusicMix! Thanks for you review

[Any suggestions on my demo???]

Nice!

It's actually really good for a demo dude! Not much more I can say other than put a more impactful melody into it!

SessileNomad responds:

thank you and yes i plan to place a catchy synth somwhere in here

[Improvisation]

Analysis = ... Average

Singer - Good but move closer to Mic.

Drummer - Underconfident/Overconfident - You play really carefully at start and then abandon your senses for the rockin-ish chorus!

Apart from them I couldn't hear very well sorry.
Keep going tho don't let anything drag you down!!!

WeAreRiot responds:

we wont let us drag down. thanks for the criticism, we need some advice :)
we told our drummer to be alittle more careful 8he broke some drums...) but at the chorus part he forgot about it.
thank you!

[Side Effect - Time]

Deja Vu!

I'm pretty sure I've heard this before! Yeah! every time my friend plays one of his fav Drum N Bass songs...

By that I mean it sounds just like every other song from this category!
You need to find a new groove man and develop it!!!

phar-NL responds:

maybe you just need to hear more DnB my friend, it has that typical new school sound, yes, but this is all my own work. You shouldn't give me a 4 just because of this lack of originality you believe I have.
What you could have done was just listen the song to the end, I'm pretty sure your friend never played one of his fav DnB songs with a piano like that in it.

You know, I have been doing alot of effort to get this song together, wouldn't be a bad idea if you should do some more effort on reviewing it; for starters by actually listening to it. I can't take this as a serious opinion.

[Never-Quitting Knight]

Pretty cool!

Only thing I have a complaint about it that the main BEAT starts near the end and the song finishes abruptly.

Other than that Its ace!... did I just say ace?? :S

Feniiku responds:

I'll bear that in mind in future, thanks :)

[Death of the Angel]

Could be better!

With melodies like this you should stay clear of MIDI and use soundfonts or something. Even doing a live piano recording would be good!
Melody bumps the rating up somewhat more!

[Umbrella (Remix Dj Alexz)]

NONONONONO!

God man change everything!
For starters slow ur MF beat right down to what Umbrella actually sounds like!
Then, put in the right melody in man!
Dude it sounds like u took the song, sped it up a little and then slapped a techno track over it that you had no idea what to do with in that first place!

am givin u 2 stars, one for that fact that Umbrella's in it and one for the fact that the techno track would have been good by itself!
