[walking down(rmx)w.i.p]

simple but nice.

The snare hits seem a little too quiet, but that's not a big deal since it ends up balancing well. The chord progression and melody are very nice, and I like how it built up out of a simple intro. The effect sounds in the ending were interesting too, but I hope you're planning on making it longer and adding more to it. Good work so far.

Thanks

[Sexy Sex]

as far as a genre...

I think it'd work in general rock, what with the beat and the guitar. I would suggest having the synth lead melody at a higher pitch so it stands out better in the mix. Other than that, the song sounds great, good chord progression, good rhythm and feel. Good work.

Michael-Flaherty responds:

Yeah, I suppose that'd fit better in rock than miscellaneous, and yeah when the melody synth comes in I should have done more to blend it into the mix. Anyway, thanks for the review!

[KKS - Killing Spree]

Interesting change of style

Going from space exploration themes to metal, haha. Still turned out pretty good, the guitar does get a little annoying when it plays the same note repetitively on 8th notes, but at the same time it almost makes it sounds like an amateur recording, so it kinda makes it more realistic by being less than perfect. lol.

Anyway, sounds pretty good, nice work.

KKSlider60 responds:

Lo-fi for the effin win! Woot! XD
Yes, no problems when playing arpeggios, but for ostinato passages it's a nightmare.
Thanks for the quick review, man :)

[God Rest Ye Merry Atheists]

Very well done!

Quite hilarious, actually. The comical ending made it perfectly light humor. Also, whoever sang the lyrics used the perfect voice for it. Very nice work. :D

Bezo responds:

Whoever? I sang the lyrics!

I was a singer long before I started composing.

Thanks for the review.

[Deadmau5 - Alone WIth You(RMX)]

Very nice.

The intro is very cool, and the rhythm is too. I have a few Deadmau5 albums, but I've not heard this one. D: So I can't really judge it compared to the original... So ima just have to say, this is very well done. :D Sounds very mau5y. It's all mixed well and, like you said, simple in a good way. And yes, you should do a longer version of it. Good work so far.

D-Chain responds:

Thanks man :) im glad you liked it ^^
this song is featered on the 2008 album; Deadmau5- Random Album Title
its imo the best album he made so far cz of the amazing diversity and random songs he made.

[{dj-N} The O]

i wasn't impressed at first...

But knowing your work, I decided to keep listening, and I'm glad I did. That was pretty gat dang awesome. Great work. The piano bit was unexpected, but it worked. haha. I would love to dance to this is I had space in my room. lol.

dj-Nate responds:

Haha I know, the piano is something that will be in the final mix.

[Let's Go [My 2nd attempt]]

cool ideas

But they need to be structured a bit better. It kind of sounds like you kept switching between instruments, if you could just stay on one solid section for longer that would help. The natural guitar you used at around 0:20 sounds a bit too loud, and raw. Some reverb would help that. You could also use some work with EQing amd mastering. Other than that, you have some skills that have the potential to be developed further. Keep up the good work.

AxelFar responds:

Thanks man, love when people comment to help me out
this is just my second song, i have much to learn, thanks
yeah, the guitar is even too high, and i will try the EQing mastering
and you are right about in the instruments, i will try!

Thanks Again.

[|\||_| Am I Deadmau5 Yet?]

Nice

I like the chorus on the snare drum in the beginning. But I felt like some of the power was lost once the beat drops. Cool chord structure either way, and nice movement throughout the song. Not quite Deadmau5, but very good. haha.

Numi responds:

Thanks for the kind words :D I know it's kinda.. weird.. it's my first try at house. Ever. Good learning experience though!
