[Fallen Dreams {130 BPM}]

hey

well at least faegoesroar commented, usually you don't get that.
anyways, try another genre, techno is REALLY overdone, and personally, i think it's played out.
as for this song, it's not very good, but at least it's not horrible.
the EQ seems inexistant, so here's a tip:
when youmake your song, put EVERY one of your instruments into a mixer track, then individually EQ them using multiband compresor and prametric EQ and the like, it really helps the sound of your song.
as long as youhave EQ down, everything else kinda falls into place, so practice EQing.

DJ-pierce responds:

haha, thanks, i agree with the overplayed thing. also, i had all the instruments into the mixer and i was kinda afraid to touch it cause i didnt know exactly what it did, lol BUT now i do, thanks. ill give it a go.

[PureX (Final State)]

lol

you named your song after ahnd sanitizer x]
anyhow, yeah, this sounds more ambient until 1:53, so either cut down the pump, the intro or put it in the "miscellaneous" category, lol.
and the pump is more trancey rather than dancey, excuse my technical speak.
i think the hi-hat-ish sound you put on the offbeats could be flanged or maybe you could alter the pitch so it gives you song a more lifelike feel (as people can't hit a cymbal perfectly over and over) and at the beginning, maybe you should give it (just an idea) reverb and make it 100% wet, then make it louder so that it fills up the track (empy tracks are lackluster and kinda boring) a little better.
but, good writing, and it has a little momentum, so that the main tune sounds like it's important, although you could add some pads or rev cymbals so the chorus hits harder and it really "wow"s the listener.
good day to you sir,

DavidRx responds:

[Fame (Plan B)]

lower vocal tracks

yeah, just soften the vocals so it blends with the song and doesn't overpower it.

thirdvii responds:

I didnt even notice that until you said something. I did it in a rush, but thanks for your attention to detail!

[Toy by kiwiaddict]

i liked it

i just like songs like this wth really distant-sounding tunes.
but yeah, liked the vibe and ambiance,
gratz and all.

kiwiaddict responds:

haha i'm a sucker for those...
thanks for listening!

[Acid Paradox - B.B.B.]

i think it would sound good

if you added a sub. it would really help pump this bass-driven song.
it sound like you're using a tringular or square lead, so use a deep sine wavesound
to fill in the whole frequency.
not a bad tune, but try writing it with little changes in every measure or so.
that really helps the song sound like it's not repeating.
mostly my opinion, but really add in a sub, it would make your song sound a lot better :D

Acid-Paradox responds:

ok, thanks for the advice !!

[Grey Dawn (DnB Demo)]

woo

it's drum and bass, i like that degauss-sounding thingy (a reese?) and your drums really work, i like how real they sound.
but it's like 30 sec, so not much to appreciate.

SteakJohnson responds:

thanks and yep thats the reeese

[FF ft HW | Please, For Me]

really like the bassline

it's uplifting, and the major tones blend relly well in this song.
the flanges work really well on-beat, and i liked that.
the gurgley organ-sound distorted sometimes, but it might be my headphones, i think i busted them, lol, too much bass.
i liked the bass pops, for some reason, but the twang was really cool.

freddyfinger responds:

hmm sounds ok on my speakers, not really sure. thanks for reviewing, glad ya liked all the sounds

[FF | MSF (Hiccup Mix)]

a spooner indeed

really like the hollow voices with the guitar-y mandarin sound, really chill.
the timing was great on this and it mixed really well.
good job.
the clap was kinda sloppy, but whatever, just tighten it up and this'll be a reallly really great track

freddyfinger responds:

yea i made the snare pretty sloppy on this haha. i've been all into that sorta style lately. glad ya liked it :)

[Ectso - A Sunday in Nantucket]

dontcha hate

how NG never reviews anything?
well i try to review almost every song i come across,
y'know, t break the cycle.
anyways, sounds..ambient.
i liked how all of the timbres contributed to the tone(i'm guessin spooky)
ot much of a melody, but whatever, it's ambient.
as for EQ, some of the sounds were pretty loud (like, offensively loud)
but overalll, a good ambient track.
k'dos.

ectsoman responds:

Yeah, there was only one corresponding melody, all the rest was complete ambiance. There where 2 really loud spots, but thats what I was going for, so eh.

Thanks for reviewing btw.

[MaskDaWun - MasterMind]

i like the riff

but the beat is WAY too loud, equalize it more, and this track could sound really great.
also, try and use less MIDI instruments.
but i think once you EQ, this track will be 100x better.

MaSkDaWun responds:

yh ima hav to work on da EQ, thanks for da review
