[Better Off (Final Rave Mix)]

5'D

Instant five and download this.

And GB really is SHIT.

[Raptor: Call of Shadows -]

Short

Amazing, for what you had. Please seriously consider making the song longer!

[M13 -March of the Ducks-]

Full song maybe?

For a loop, this is great. You can hear the quacks of the ducks, and the sound is great. The xylophone is a nice touch. For something so goofy, it's well-done.

[Distant Night (NW)]

Nice job.

For someone not really well-versed in FL, the song is very nice. The instruments sound good, the rhythms are there, and you don't seem to be lacking anything vitally important.

There's two big things I think could be improved- transitions and repetitiveness. The transitions don't flow very well- it's a straight cut between one thing into the next. As for the repetitions, the last quarter of the song doesn't evolve or build very much on what you had already done before.

Hopefully this is helpful.

Nikowolf responds:

yeah it is. I was hoping to like extend the last part of the song so it sinded nice for an end but idk how to do that yet xD.

Anyways thanks for review =]

[Tales of Symphonia - Fatalize]

Good, with some bad,

First, Kudos for actually doing SOMETHING with the baseline and actually having DRUMS! That's more than any other remix I've heard.

But, that's also the problem with the song- the melody is a little too soft and understated. Otherwise, this kicks the other remixes' butts on drums and base alone. Only one I'm downloading.

BlueSkar23 responds:

Thanks a lot, man. I'm back from my dormant state and I'd say I'm a lot better at using FL now. Look out for a Fighting of the Spirit remix!

:D

[Fatalize RMX]

Bah-

I think this remix has two main issues- the tempo seems relaxed and the guitars.

About the tempo, I can't suggest much. Move the bass part and get a more developed drum line going.

As for the guitars- I think it has something to do with not being clear enough. Fatalize moves fast, and using instruments that aren't well defined comes out muddy.

DJ-HappyFace responds:

Hmmm...Fair enough. Keep in mind I made this quite a while ago, and If I went back to remake it peopel would complain lol. Thanks for the advice, I'll keep it in mind.

[+*. TOS - Fatalize (2) .*+]

Ugh

The church organ sound is horrible.

Special-Ed responds:

Just out of curiosity, did you happen to listen to the whole thing? It's a bad habbit of mine to start songs with a boring, or slow version lasting just one measure or so, and then break into the intense rest of the song. If you did hear the whole song, then I'm sorry for the terrible sound.

[[SD] Strollin']

Whoa.

I didn't even notice that this HAD looped.

SupraDarky responds:

lol, I guess that's a good thing! :)

[~EnV~Haunting RMX]

Holy-

The song goes along real nice, creepy, atmospheric, and then it hits :33, and even though the tone changes, it fits, and rocks.

What's really cool about this song is how the atmospheric moments really capture what makes your later works good- there's so many layers, that you can catch different things the more you listen. The complex moments really capture the mysterious, supernatural qualities that we associate with ghosts and other things that go bump in the night.

I'd seriously like to see this redone again as the Author Comments kinda allude to. Although I seriously like the more driven part of the song where the melody really kicks in, it's admittedly the weakest part of the song, because it's where the least is going on.

But still. Why haven't I clicked download yet?

[Celcius]

Screwing around...

There's one song you did (V.S TP, it was a collab with another techno artist) that is great on its own. But the coolest thing was taking your version, and the other version by the other artist and playing them at the same time (It sounds cool, and never sounds the same twice).

Celcius and and Fahrenheit don't work as well I'm afraid. They just don't sound good playing at the same time. Celcius still is a good song though.
