[Champion Red Battle Remix]

Well...

I know this could sound good, so I'm giving you a 7 for the effort, but for the time being the mastering is awful: the track in general is way too loud, distorted and overall a little intimidating to listen to because of it. It's hard to enjoy the track for its other qualities because of it.

You should work on that and resubmit it =)

ShadowLugia responds:

Thanks for you're input, I really do appreciate it. Mastering is my weakness sense I'm still learning, I'm still pretty new. =P
But hopefully I will learn better 'mastering' techniques and re-post it. Thanks again! ^__^

[Evening Walk]

Ohhh etc. etc.

Sounds pretty cool, but I couldn't help but think of the song Believe Me by Fort Minor. Did it inspire you? If you haven't heard it you should check it out, the melodies are very similar :)

[Trials in the Gulf]

Review goes where?

Drum N Bass? No. Awesome? Hell yeah!

FocusedFINN responds:

hahah thank you! i didn't know where to put it! where should it go???

[Acid Paradox - TMWTIT]

Awesome

Nice track, did you remember to quantize everything correctly, though? At some parts the synth seems to fall outside of the beat, when it should be hitting. Anyway, could just be my trouble mind fucking with me, and, like I said, this is a nice, innovative track. Keep it up, you definitely have "it"... whatever that is.

[Acid Paradox - Discipline]

What to write here :O

Cool submission, very Daft Punk :)
Work a little on the vocals so the auto tune doesn't correct anything too big next time (if you know what I mean) :) Only thing I can really critic on.
Good to hear something with singing on NG! Keep it up

[showdown|Shorter]

Awesome!

This could totally be in a keygen >:D

I think the sound is a little too "in your face" in some areas, maybe you should re-equalize it, just to give it a warmer, more comfortable sound :) I feel my ears would be hurt just a tad if I turned this up really loud... I wanna be able to do that! >;d
Everything else is amazing tho.

oh, and I'd really love it if you would tell me which synths you used for this :) I've always loved this kind of music, but haven't been able to find synths that generate this exact sound.

[Dance 1 ~P~]

Nice :F

Great piano and synths :)
The kick could use a little thump and the looping is a bit out of sync.
I'm still gonna rate you 5 though ;D

Phyrnna responds:

Changed the kick up a bit. ^.^ Thanks for the review and score!

[M - Apex Predator]

DnB <3

9/10
5/5

First off, awesome..
The whole feel of the song reminds me of Pendulum, the intro especially, but I felt it was all suspense and no real reward :(

Melophobik responds:

Aw, man, that's quite a compliment :)

Sorry the drop wasn't heavy enough for ya, I tried my best to make sure that as soon as the beat came in it immediately went from that build up to a huge tune.

But it's all good :) Thank you for your vote and your review!

[/Who/Am/I/]

Beautiful

I only have 2 problems with this piece: bad drums(like, really bad ones) and an overall lack of bass. Perhaps the composition lacks a bit of coherence, but then again, a tricky piece can be the best at times.

Other than that, this was just amazing. The melody at 21 seconds is great, why did it have to stop so soon? :(

Malthiest responds:

Thanks for the review.

Did you mean the quality of the drums, or the actual beat.
if the quality, I'm still trying to find some good samples.
(those are the FL default drums)

[The West Of]

Sounds nice but...

You should really learn to master better, because this is clipping like mad. I think it would sound pretty neat if it didn't clip so much and was better equalized... so work on that for future projects :)

4/5

ChineseCommando responds:

Yeah I know. That happens for almost all songs with my program. Thanks for the advice, anyway.
