[~EnV~ Destination (Demo Clip)]

what a coinkadink.

well at lest its got flare.
but its a little too generic for my tastes,
chord-wise.

Envy responds:

This songs going on Itunes for money and such. Why wouldn't I make it generic :3

[A few more weeks]

its crowded

do some EQ and sort out the noise.
but it sounds like a good tune underneath.

MaXounet responds:

Yup, that's my main issue in my songs, equalisation and mix balance. Thanks for the hint.

[When Things Go Right]

its nice

add flavor.
well youre new to music "synthesis"
so here's the pickin'
music =
25% instruments picked
25% correct EQ
15% chords/actual writing
35% style.

if i'm wrong (which i probably am), then this is what i believe to be the basics to good music.

Refacull responds:

Thanks. I know I need flavor, but I just don't know what. I can listen to this once or twice and think its all good. But then I listen to armin van buuren and i can play his shit 12 hours straight, same 2 hour selection and its awesome the entire time.

[FF | Isle of Skye]

and hey, if you collab with anybody

include me.
some styles can be mixed.
let's change the world.
lol.
and THIS is the bass i like to hear.
where do you pull samples from?
or do you create them somehow?

freddyfinger responds:

thanks, that would make for a very interesting collab haha. your music has a lot of creative, melodic progressive twists and turns; real good sounds. i get samples usually from soulseek and chop em up to my liking. thanks for all ur reviews man that's real awesome of you.

[FF | Placid Vibes]

send some stuff into labels

you might catch a break!
although your style is more blues-y, maybe you could bring it back!
it like to hear more progressive basslines from you, becasue some of your songs only have dabs of bass, and it would sound better (to me) if the bass plucked more and strung farther, or had a more complicated rythm.

freddyfinger responds:

thanks, that'd be awesome but i'd probably have to get a little better heh. yeah i usually keep the bass brief because of the repetitiveness nature of the old school beats. i can try to work on something more progressive, maybe for some funky stuff.

[FF | Cruisin' Down Chernobyl]

i guess you cant catch a break from the 0 bombers

this is good stuff.
unless its not yours (i dunno, ive heard some songs get ripped, but i think this id you)
this is very nice.
great EQ and nice rythm.
on the repeptive side, but its 5:45, so whatever.
good work.

freddyfinger responds:

thanks a lot. yeah it's me. is probably my most sampled one but there are a few things i didn't sample on this. i was thinking if this was too long lol but i guess it worked out. and yeah zero bombers will be all over my beats like i'm a bowl of milk or something (wtf lol)

[FF | Breathless]

sounds real

thats what i like to hear.
youve got a knack, my friend.
i think bass couldve beeen a little louder.
i really couldnt hear it that well.

freddyfinger responds:

yeah i was wondering if i should have added some bass to this. i just went in and added some right now, i think it does sound a bit better. thanks a lot :)

[Bowser the Shredder RMX]

well ive never heard the full original

but it sounds like what itd be!
finetune your instruments
and if youre using FLstudio, hook an intrument up to a peak controller and an effect and hook one of the knobs (pick wisely) of the effect (like a filter's cutoff or a flanger's depth) up to the peak or LFO so it reacts to the instrument playing. it will make it sound good and original!

eclipso7 responds:

Thanks for being so consistant in your reviewing! You know a lot about music, I guess. I don't, because I use Garageband.

[E7-Bass Machine]

it sounds like the beginning to something

around 10 sec, i was thinking it would blast out and bee all crazy.
but hey, if you made this, it sounds good for a drum part!

eclipso7 responds:

Haha thanks but I don't know what to say, I didn't want it to be generic.
