[It's All Okay]

not bad

I liked it. I just needs work. I liked your singing and didn't at the same time. Seemed too forced. Reminded me of Vermillion Part 2 by Slipknot.

JuggaloJay845 responds:

Yea I wasn't too proud of this one.The lyrics were thrown together in less than 10 minutes and we didn't really spend time recording it.It was kind of like a one take deal.I'm not supposed to be singing that high lol.I should have more stuff up within a few months depending on how much recording time is going to cost.But it won't be acoustic, it will have a harder sound.Thank you for the feedback though

[<3Texting Isn't Close Enough..]

:,)

It's sweet. I like it a lot. I want it longer, or loopable, which my only complaint.

5/5 9/10

pichuscute0 responds:

I need to make it loopable and re-upload real fast. XD Longer would be nice, but I can't sample any more of the guitar unfortunately. Oh well. It's not mine, by the way, taken from the song This One's For You by Jamestown Story.

[Rzl 2]

Uhm

Needs some work. The sounds are really boring and not really fitting. Overall I felt bored. Sorry man. Add a lot more variety. Not sure how to put it other then I didn't really like it. Keep trying though. You have the basics of a possible song, just needs some work.

2/5 4/10

Runcover responds:

Thanks for the feedback! It helped!

O.O

<3 = the best way I can describe how I feel about this song.

Loved the melody and all the sounds. Just the ending is a little sudden, but as you said, work in progress, still awesome none the less.

5/5 10/10

JohnLeprechaun responds:

Yeah, this is quite a rough version. With any luck, it will be crisper, cleaner, longer, and generally better when I'm done with it. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it nonetheless!

Hot

I loved this song, I was trying to figure out what genre to classify one of my songs, and I came to DnB and the top song was meh, then I heard this one. I love the intro with a rain and the voice clips. Overall, I loved the song. Keep up the good work.

5/5 10/10

[Jingle Bells R3M1X]

It made my ears twitch

That means that it hurt them. The reason is a lack of sound balancing. The drums are far to loud over the rest of the instruments in my opinion. I mean, I like the song in some ways. Also, a more complex melody sound would be cool, a little softer and more bell like. Though it sounds good once the bass kicks in, so that's upto you. I love the bass. Then with snare and crash and other cymbals they are really really sharp and make my ears cry. I'd like to finish this with, this is my opinion. I use FL studios, so if you have any questions about how to balance it better feel free to ask, I always read artist's comments back.

12spike22 responds:

Honestly I threw this Togeather in about 30 min so I didn't expect much from it but it was a celebratory thing. I'll prob update it in a few days and make it longer. And with the balencing I didn't try any whatsoever. Just was all "Iike the drums so I'm gonna make them a little louder"
And also ... Aparently the bass is my best instrument cause ur the second one to appricate the bass line alot on one of my songs. So maybe I shoulda spent a oil less on that and a lil more on the melody line. Erm. I'll think about this after a good nights sleep. Lol. But thanks for the feedback. It's apricated.

[TL - Carol of the Bells]

Time Signitures

Great cover, it sounds great. I love carol of bells so maybe my opinion is skewed but this song is amazing.

5/5 10/10

TeHLoY responds:

Thanks for reviewing! Really appreciated. =)

[FS: Epic Solo]

If only it were Jealousy

Isn't this just a children's song? Just saying, this isn't really unique cause I recognize this song, I just can't place what song it is. There's no shift scale, which would have made it kind of cool, instead it just repeats the same scale again. Also, it's a total of 14 seconds long. I mean, I've heard worse solos that should have only been 14 seconds long, but this one needs to be longer. Overall, I don't think you even tried. Sorry man, but I gotta.

FairSquare responds:

But, dude.. you don't know how much time and effort i put into this.
Open your ears man. All you hear is a simple melody that i didn't even make up myself, but try to listen a bit better.
Let the loop play for about 10 times and just let the notes pierce into your mind.
Close your eyes. Focus on the song and let go of your negative thoughts.
This song will put you into trance. This song, will let you travel anywhere you'd like. All you have to do is open yours ears and clear your mind.

You see, to achieve this effect i had to study the human brain for years and years. I have taken several psychology courses and talked to psychiatrist and professors.
All that i have learned is in this song. It is designed to change your inner self.
And believe me.. if you have an open mind and allow this song to enter it, you will be the person you've always wanted to be.

Think again before you judge.

Sounds

Where did you get your sounds, and what do you use. I'd love to get those orchestra sounds, they sound amazing. Please tell me :D. However, other then that, I like the song. The orchestration is good in terms of melody and repitition of said melody. Also the second part is awesome sounding. The only problem I have with the modern drum beat is that it just doesn't seem to fit. Make the first drum beat, "bum-ta" more complex, perferably with cymbals, since the hat seems to be the thing that made it fit the best. I personally don't like the hat tamberine in this song, but that's up to you, I'd have rather heard a hi-hat. Also, make it longer, this song is absolutely amazing, and I'd like to hear more of it. Seriously, I love this song man. Now don't forget to tell me where you got those orchestra sounds so I can use them :D. Good song man 5/5 9/10 (-1 for being to short :P)

ValikSparks responds:

Hey! Thanks so much for the review -very encouraging...I'm an amatuer, and have no idea what I'm doing -seriously, I can't even read music..I do what I do by ear, and just make what 'sounds good' to me. I'll definitely keep in mind your suggestions, and I'd love to try implenting them, and making a longer, better version of this as soon as I get some time and inspiration.
The exact instruments I use are from East West Instruments (soundsonline.com I think), specifically East West Symphonic Orchestra Gold, and Stormdrum (don't think I used that one in this piece though). And I edit the sounds into music in FL Studio 9. But...East West Instruments are freaking expensive...you might look into 'Garriton Personal Orchestra', which is cheaper I think, and of comparable quality.

Thanks again!
