[xKore - I Love You]

wow

I really like your style. I want to try to make some stuff really nice like you have it; all clean and well produced. I just submitted a song (good people) that was inspired by your song I <3 U (not really the style, but the percussion and cleanness of it all)

xKore responds:

to make clean music, u haf to make it in a clean way :) these last 2 songs were probably my most organized songs I have ever done.

[xKore - Speechless]

nice

I like it, how'd u get the dirty bassline? distortion? If you could PM me some tips, maybe even on how to make the white noise, I've been wanting to do something like this for a long time. Going to see justice on new years ;-)

xKore responds:

Have fun seeing Justice, that stuff is dirty as hell, tis great.

The bassline was made using NI Massive, a great bassline synth :)

[JD - Umbrella Acoustic]

nice

good work. I like your chord progression, and pretty decent sound quality. The drum loop doesnt sound too bad either, did u use a Dr. Rex loop or did u use a drum machine to make it urself?

SupJD responds:

thank you for your review mate :)

and answering your question - i used redrum, just put a few basic drum samples through each channel and that was it, and if i remember correctly (and by listening to it again), i dont even think i put any reverb on the drums which is pretty shocking!! its just got whatever reverb is in the recorded .wav sample

[Heavier Sh!t]

sounds good

i really like it but you could put some effects to change things up... the drums sound distorted like theres too much reverb during some of the guitar solos. Also, it wasn't loud enough. Something this heavy has to be... heavy. Otherwise, it was good

wilb0b responds:

yeah i've got the drums all on one track right now but I'm not going to separate them until the end and boost every thing else up but thanks man!

[Mario World - Ending]

nice

GG (Error - Your review was too short. Please go back and add more.)

CrazyCookie responds:

4sho.

[The Lord Of The Rings Rmx]

it started out alright as a remix

but after like 30 seconds, it became a trance song with little resemblance to the LotR song

JohnnyFrizz responds:

Okay...well if you keep listening you will here the original theme but now played with synths and pads.

[Bez Tebya (feat.Mira)]

nice

I like this one more than the other. The instrumentals actually sound crisp and professionally done here. And the rap sounds good, I just dont know what it means. You could be saying "peas and carrots, peas and carrots, corn corn corn" over and over for all I know, but in russian, that might sound good so i dont care =p

Xtreminal responds:

lol, this rap about my passion to the girl. How much I desire her.

Let me explain u lil', in rap term it will be like this:

Baby, come to here, come 2 luv atmosphere,
Feel my burnin' passion, Only loneliness is ma' fear.

[100 km (ft.Mira)]

I dont really like the instrumentals

but good rapping. I dont know what it means but it sounds good at least. I gave it a 5 for the vocals

Xtreminal responds:

it's about guys love to girl, basicaly - love story rap)

[Keep Up the Pace]

not terrible

I like your rhythyms but I think the drums could use some effects, they just sounded a bit too repetitive. Same with the instruments. Real solid beat tho

pookicker responds:

I agree with you on the drums, I should have done more with them. I used MIDI on the instruments (except for the synth-ish stuff) and that's about as hard as they get, which sucks! Thanks for reviewing.

[Reasoner- Where Do We Turn]

amazing

I love it. i wish I could play the piano like you. Did you get lessons? I just started using a midi keyboard to make music now that im done with FL studio for a while and moved onto Reason 4. I really wish I could play like that.

Reasoner responds:

I took lessons through high school. Most of my piano was learned through just messin around a lot too.
