[N.sndwch-idunno1]

not much into the genre

but this is amazing, my friend.

Great bass, incredibly smooth transitions and sound selection is fantastic.

9/10 because i didn't dig the kick, it was too 'sticky' for my liking.

thanks for your reviews, too :)

keep it up!

NickSandwich responds:

Thanks :D
I'm pretty sure all the synth parts is Native Instrument's Absynth. BEAUTIFUL synth. It does everything lol.
That's weird that you didn't like the kick. Personally I hate the way I eq'd the snare/clap.

[Halloween FX]

my idol.

[Ska...nk!]

not bad

seems very amateur, but has some theme, and gets somewhat interesting.

the use of percussion around 00:20 was interesting.

[Sophisticated Flows]

its great in many ways, but something sucks

the lack of compression on your channels makes it sound so terrible in general.

the melody is great, the transitions are great, the bpm is suitable, the sounds would be excellent if they were compressed.

the breaking up/ stuttering may be intentional, but in my opinion it's not suitable.

work on it, it would make a very nice entry.

[bells yo]

or no

or yes if you compress your channels and stop going over 100% on your master volume levels. for the last time, tennisboy

[Awesome Techno]

hmm

please note: this is the first time i am writing such a low-score review.

there is clearly a lack of effort shown in this submission.
i am absolutely shocked at how this got on the weekly top 5.
the slayer plain sucks, it's the stock preset.

did you add ANY effects to this song? it sure doesn't sound like it.

MANY if not all of the sounds i can recall as being presets and stock instruments and percussions. don't get me wrong - i've seen amazing entries with stock sounds.

there are no delays or reeverb on the instruments, they all sound "stock".

there was no progression in the melody itself. something new came in which wasn't terribly interesting and then went away leaving the listener with the same old loops.

don't use the trance preset when chopping, really it's just not that good for a main synth. if it was for a soft, quiet background sound then it works fine.

you get 2 points for the instrument that comes in at 0:29 unveiling into something more enjoyable later on, around :45 and :50. yet again, it just went away leaving me with the loops i already heard.

you also get 2 points for the potential, as you have some of it.

Mushu-Productions responds:

Thx for the review. However if you listen to our older stuff and consider the fact that this song actually took about 10 hours to make ( I'm not good with fl at all lol) you'll find that I did alot of effort.
But again thx for the comment and the tips.
Peace -

[Over the Rainbow Techno Remix]

good...

good enough to be taking time out of my busy day for a review.

ElectroLord99 responds:

so wheres ur review? lol

[Trance Loop 01 (DJ-Nightmare)]

good

despite everyone's opinion (judging by your score), this is actually a decent entry!

many of the loops I don't submit are like this

good work, keep it up.

also if you made this in fruity loops, and I can guess that you did, then you should render it as a loop, it would transition better.

DJ-Nightmare responds:

At least someone appreciates my work -_-

[Another horror theme]

obvious faults

the beginning drumloop is very poorly sliced.

the sound selection wasn't great - be that drums, bass, synth, and anything above.

didn't really get that horror theme, either.

the sound transitions were all over the place, with NO transitions, just rapid stops and entries of new sounds.

I'll have to judge this one honestly and not generously, 3 and 6.

quarks123 responds:

yeah youre right i had done this because i were bored, the score is as good as i suspected

[8-Bit Sessions 2]

refreshingly unique

even though i hate 8-bit and its squeaky high-resonance nature, you managed to make something out of it.

...i especially liked 0:08 the entry, it was funky, yet i felt something was wrong with it, maybe the timing?

also it was getting sort of irritating, the main synth that never stopped, and you could've made a fade out, would be very simple yet very effective.

you get a 4 and 7
