[Expectations(WIP)]

Oh Dayum! First 5 stars I've given out in awhile and it goes to a WIP! :P

Clean-cut, progressive, awesome dance music; this genuinely made me want to get up and get down. Powerful bass, solid drums, and some tight arpeggios in the lead that progress into a funky melody.

Excellent work! Hope to hear the finished product soon! :)

Hurks responds:

Thank you! :D. This project at the start was intended to just practice vocal glitching a little bit, so expect that kind of stuffs when it's done c:.

[Demons Inside Unmastered]

I love it<3

Dat piano, dat wub-wub bass, dem dramatic strings and those sexy snares/hi-hats! A very good mix of acoustic-ish sounds with purely electronic elements. Excellent job!

TBM responds:

Thanks mate!

[Running Away from Cops]

Right on.

Anyways, the playing was great! Very nice lyrics, although at times the soulful singing turns into heart-broken mumbles, and it gets hard to understand. As for the singing, it was passionate but at times totally out of pitch. If you're dedicated to music, I recommend some singing lessons. Your body is an instrument, and a teacher can help you fine tune it!

Overall; 3.5/5 Fairly good.

B1blepolice responds:

Thank you I really wanna get lessons but shyts expensive! They charge $20 for for like a half hour out here! As of now I'm practicing DVDs Melissa Cross the Zen of Screaming. I haven't really been much of a fan of this song either. That's why my band doesn't play it!

[Marching in the Night]

This sounds like some professional grade chip music, man. Kind of at a loss for words, all I've got to say is that this is some top-quality, pure, emotional chip music. Great work!

disk00 responds:

I tend to put a lot of emotion into my chiptunes. Though some times people may get confused on what those emotions might be...heh. Thanks for the comment :) means a lot

[Take Your Time]

I want that intro to play every time I pop a bottle of champagne, run a bubble bath, open a bottle of soda, and do other such bubbly activities.

The song itself is great! Super bubbly electronica/ 8-bit pop music, just emits an aura of happiness and pop. The melodies and harmonies are all fantastic, sounds like something I would turn up whenever it came on the radio and sing along to:P

Awesome job!

tallestrose responds:

Wow, I really appreciate it, thanks a lot! :D

[Penguin love]

It's a pretty weird song man. In the beginning it has some moments where everything fits together well, everything's in the same key, etc, but mostly it just feels like a jumble of random arpeggios, notes, and several different melodies (in different keys) being played over the other.

Then, if you have the patience to sit through the first part, the second half of the song is great! Rad guitar solo, everything mostly fits together well, in the same key, etc.

Overall; Sounds like a weird jumble of a bunch of different melodies just thrown over each other for the most part. Has the potential to be a fantastic song, though.

jzhak responds:

Thank you. the truth is that the song is old, is mine for a while, try to upload I'll take into account to remove some scales that are heard forced

[Winter Wrap Up (EOD Mix)]

Beep bop bippity boop

A nice relaxing techno mix. I like the delay on the main synth and the occasional drops, all in all everything balances out pretty well. Fun music, good job! :)

SubZero45 responds:

Thanks a ton man, I am glad you enjoyed it!

[FYI'm naming this]

The 4 or 5 repeated power chords get very plain after a short while. The drum kit sounds really dry and artificial. The guitar soloing in the middle was decent, but overall the song has a pretty weak structure :/...hopefully your cat likes it!

akidcalledgrim responds:

My cat left me shortly after posting this. I don't think it was down to the track, that was more of a coincidence.

[Prototype]

I'm sorry, but I've just gotta be brutally honest here; DOPE. AS. FUCK.

Chill chord progressions to make a lovely backdrop, minimalist (but still explosive) drums to make for one hot ass beat clap, fresh to death bass line, and that SIIIICK wah pedal-type synth that comes up in the middle of the song. This is such a tight beat! Keep making music man, good luck:D

AmbientDanny responds:

i'm glad you like it bro and thanks for reviewing i appreciate it. i wanna see if people think my music is actually good lol. thx man.

[The Uprising - SkD]

The beat is awesome. Great drumkit choice, patterns, etc, and great melodies/song structure as well. I liked all of the synths except for the main one (the one that sounds like a distorted electric guitar), it just sounds too in your face for such a chill as fuck song. If you can change the main synth to something less in your face, but still having a powerful presence in the song, i'll give ya 5 stars. Great job overall, though.

G-U-A-R-D-I-O-N responds:

Aye man thanks thats a hella good idea! Im probably gonna work on it some more lemme see if I can pull a remix outta my ass or somethin haha
