[Kw- Severed The 2nd]

Nice loop you've got here

Haha, i don't really like House, but i do like this song. So you've made a song that breaches through genre preferences and that's actually a pretty hard thing to do :P
Anyway, i don't hear any flaws in it or something. Hmm, maybe the kick could be a bit heavier, but if this will be used in a flash than i wouldn't do that. It would only distract from the game/movie :P
Keep up the good work!

nightsurfermusic responds:

Thanks man! The kick sounds pretty heavy to me, i can see a game where you have to avoid something caused by the kick. Ah well, thanks for reviewing!

[Flare [SMD]]

Nice!

The intro with the crowd is really good and sets the mood for the song. Then the melody comes in and it sounds so uplifting and.. nice! :D
Then you feel that it's building up to something and step by step the music gets a little calmer. Then the calm part comes in. That sounds pretty nice, but it's a bit repetitive. You could've added a little more variation there.
After the calm part it goes back to the nice melody lines again. Hmm, maybe you can turn that high bell sound thingy a little up in the mix. I think it would sound better :-)
Conclusion:
This is a very nice song and with a few adjustments it can go from a very good song to a great song.
Keep up the good work!

SmdSkata responds:

Thanks for your comments. It seems everyone loves the crowd. I really did aim for the song to start off quite jump to intense then drop to the bridge. I also do agree with the middle part being super repetitive. I'm thinking about releasing an extended version with more movements in it. Belive it or not, the bell was originally loud as could be in the mix but I lowered it on the final render. Thanks!

[Thunder Day]

Haha, nice title :P

The title is pretty cool, because i'm Dutch too ^^
Anyway, review.
I though the drums were pretty cool and the piano is nice too. Maybe you could've add more instruments to make the song sound more full and create a richer sound. For example, a saxophone would sound really nice in this piece ^^
Overall:
9/10

ChrisisD responds:

Thanks ^^ the problem is... my samples are a little limited... really hard to find good ones. specially for sax and trumpets and sortlike. i'll see what I can do with what I have ^^ I use Reason 4, not so keen on getting a new program... (i dont like FL :P)
cya!

[-:YRX:-ChaozPhantasy RMX]

Cool ^^

It's pretty cool, but it's a bit repetitive. Also that last note is really weird xD
Anyway, good job on the song ^^

YouriX responds:

Yeah i tried my best to avoide it being repetitive by using a lot of diffrint drums patterns. :P

But wich last note was wierd o.O ?:00 :P
Thanks for the comment

[{B.A.B.} La Guerra De Los Díos]

Awesomeness!

I think this is one of my favourite songs you made.
It's completely in your own style (yes, you have an own style) and i love it! I really really REALLY love it!
I know reviews are meant to point out some bad things too, but with some songs that's just impossible for me. And this IS one of those songs!
I love the horns and the fast strings. Everything is just so.. so.. perfect!
I also love how you used dynamics.
Well, i could probably go on for a while about how much i love this song, but i think this review will turn more into a rant than a review :P
Great job!

blackattackbitch responds:

My own style....might have to change that. Not that I don't like having a unique style, but I gotta avoid the trap of all my music sounding the same, you know?

I'm glad you liked this song, I really am, and I don't care what kind of review you give, as long as I know that someone out there enjoyed it then it's all good ;-)

I think the biggest relief for me personally was the fact that the things I chose to emphasize in this piece didn't fall flat. I was worried about that happening.

And I just realized that I forgot to add you to my RSS feeds, so imma do it now =p

[Camilla [Syphonmax Remix]]

This sounds great!

Man, i love that melody!
Well, maybe it's not yours, BUT I STILL LOVE IT! <3
And your right, it's a great buildup. And a great song too!
The only thing that bothers me is the outro. It just fades away and i'm not really a fan of that.
But that's just personal taste though.
Overall:
10/10

syphonmax responds:

I really had no idea how to end this song I spent a long time on trying to find an ending and it ended up being more than 5 mins long lol

And thanks =]

[~|Walking In The Rain [Clas.]]

I like those drums!

Wow, i really that beat. It's mellow, but it's also keeping the pace in the song which makes it very pleasant to listen too.
It's a shame that it is so short, but i enjoyed it anyway ^^
Hmm, maybe it's a good thing too that it is so short, otherwise it would be a bit repetitive, so i think it's better this way.
What i do miss though is a 2nd melody that fills up the empty spaces a bit. But screw that, it's very nice to listen too, so you get a

Helth responds:

[::Moving Trees::]

And another beautiful song

What i really like about your songs is that they're played live. This means that there isn't always perfect timing, but it adds so much emotion and feeling.
Hmmm, this song really makes me sit down and just listen. Yep, this song really got my attention ^^
Anyway, i'll try to write down the picture i see when listening to this song.

A man sits on the beach. He's watching the sea.
It's pretty busy on the beach, but he doesn't notice.
A tear falls down his face and then he sees that a little kid is walking towards him. The kid sits down next to him, but doesn't say a word.
They both look out over the sea.
Suddenly the kid speaks: ''Isn't the sea wonderful?''
''Yes it is'' the man responds.
They watch the sun slowly getting swallowed by the sea.
When the sun is gone completely the kid stands up and walks away. The man stays sitting there, because he has no home, no family and no friends.
Slowly he falls asleep.

gOrc responds:

nice picture I must say. your story fits well in the character of the piece, cause I wanted to catch a sensible athmosphere, too. thanks for taking the time man, these stories always make me happy.
