"Not exactly hardstyle..."

submission: :KA: NeatBeat

date: August 14, 2008

Hardstyle has a hard kick & a reverse bass, with a lead that has conflicting sound waves with a bunch of effects. This is just distorted FX kicks with a drum loop. Nice attempt, not exactly my kind of hardstyle.

"Oh, wow!"

submission: :KA: Utopia (Remastered)

date: July 18, 2008

This is a really great track. The bass, synths, drums, etc. fit very very nicely. This is very professional sounding. If you're not signed yet, you definately will be soon.

"Great job!"

I agree with F-777. All this needs is some arps, and maybe a little more sound with the bass, if you know what I mean (Not more volume, just a higher pitched synth to back it up a bit).

Yeah, I dunno what else to say, sorry.

"My turn to review. X3"

submission: Neverland (remix)

date: May 16, 2008

This is very nice. I don't like how there's a hihat on every 2 steps in the beat though. The vocals are a tad quiet, too.

I liked the acid arpegiation you used in there. It fit nicely, as I can never get acid synths to fit into my pieces.

The end... *Sigh* Vanguard preset? I thought you were better than that! XD

"Amazing."

submission: Galeforce [Epic Trance]

Before I start the review, I just have to say sorry for not reviewing sooner. XD

I like the bell synth in the intro. It gave the track a tribal feel. Once you get past the snare buildup, there's a wood sort of sound. I like that.

I like the variations in melodies. Around 2:30, a new synth comes in, which makes me think of some epic seen from a video game (lol). Very nice job.

I don't like how you filtered out the ending. Not great for trance.

"Hmm"

submission: {Dj-T} Evaporation (NG)

date: May 10, 2008

I definately like this piece. All you need is to fix some volume levels on the gated synth, maybe a tad quieter. I also liked the bass line, how it's not the old kick-bass-kick-bass kind of thing. That isn't really great for a dance club or something, but it's definately original.

I like the lead you filter it at 3:00. Once you bring the piece to the climax, I just start feeling energetic & somewhat happy. Really nice job at that.

I don't like how you used FL Keys at 4:19. You need to find a good soundfont somewhere on Google for that. That's what I did, & my pieces sound better than if they had the damn Keys in there.

I also like how this piece loops. Great work!

submission: [Kpz] A crappy song?

Dude, DON'T UPT THAT DAMN INTRO IN YOUR MUSIC EVER AGAIN! That's like... Worse than me when I was starting out. o_O

After that, it gets really good. You better not've used someone elses song there, or I'll hunt you down & rip your eyes out. XD

Sorry this review couldn't've been better, I'm pretty busy ATM.

"Definately something great"

submission: Milk{Deep Blue}

This is an amazing piece. Great work, I especially like the transition at 3:10, as you said, it just gives me a good feeling of accomplishment.

"Its not techno."

submission: CANON Techno- But Still Pretty

date: May 3, 2008

I don't like how there's no percussion, there could atleast be some small hihat bits in there, or a calming drum line in there. I also don't like how you used presets of VSTs in there. Some things are too loud, also. The sound starts distorting around 1:40. You need to tone down the piano at certain parts.

I did however like that it was a remix of Canon, possibly my favourite piano solo piece ever made. I liked the arpegiations in there too. Very nice.

Keep trying, you'll soon be a great musician.
