very funky. kinda reminds me of 'oasis'. I think. not sure if it was actually that track or another one - but you get what I mean.

I don't really have anything to say except that I keep wanting to hear a saw-like high end freq melody. something to make the mix feel finished.

good stuff either way. I also uploaded a new song recently. ;)

SCIENCE

p.s. nice solo. also you should record some guitar stuff for a liquid dnb song maybe. i'll talk to you later about it.

not bad for being new. first of all, if you want to get into producing, do not start out with dubstep-like songs. (overusing bass, basically). you should really try and experiment and find out what kind of sound YOU want to make.

when mixing any type of electronic song, you always want to cut off the bass frequencies on your melodic/lead synths, and raise the high end freq.

for your bass, make sure that the kick drum / bass isn't using the same freq. You got to balance it out.

I can't really critqiue melodic wise because that's where creativity comes in. Just keep doing trial and error and eventually you'll find the spotlight.

keep it up

Thanks for that review and critique! I found it very helpful. I employ the use of compression 'ducking' already, but that's a good point about also watching the higher frequencies as well! I'm considering just EQing everything as I go along, sampling the result, and then constructing songs from the samples.

pretty chill dude. you got some good herpaderpsteps going on here.

I think a full on 8 bit version of this would sound so much better IMO. you should try that. ^__^

-.5 because the atmosphere felt kind of dull - too much dry stuff going on. Add more reverb!!!

cool cya

Kirbyfemur responds:

I've been trying to be careful of the amount of effects i've been using and focusing onclarity of sound. But i may just add a bit of verb to fill the sound a bit more. Thanks man! :3

yeahhhhhh buddy.

there's my teck dude. doing your best to keep the old school sound in trance - just like me. :)

more more more. teehee :3

(dj-bill)

nice stuff man. keep making more!

z-raven responds:

course.

Improvisation at it's best. I can only pull off a great session when I'm home alone, thinking about dark shit like this.

love it.

It's been a while since I've stumbled upon your music. I've never really excelled in the classical genre, so I envy the skill that you have to create these melodies!

Everything was written beautifully. The transitions were well done, the movement of each peace flowed nicely, and every instrument was there when it needed to be.

My only complaint is that there was no memorable theme for all of the songs. All of them kinda felt like separate songs, you know what I mean?

You should check out Jerry Martin's music in Simcity 3000. There's about 12 tracks and all of them as at least one main melody that is played in almost every song.

If you take what JM does with his soundtracks and use the way he makes themes ( not exactly like him but you get the point), then your music will become ten times better. It's already good now, don't worry about that. lol

Keep up the amazing work man. I rarely review classical music so sorry if whatever I say doesn't make sense!

Peace.

Hey man, thanks for the detailed review!

"It's been a while since I've stumbled upon your music. I've never really excelled in the classical genre, so I envy the skill that you have to create these melodies!"

Thanks! Although these aren't actually my melodies. This is a medley, remixing different tunes of the game Monster Hunter Tri. Some of the melodies and background chords are mine, but otherwise the composition is all from Monster Hunter :P. My latest original orchestral track is Sanctuary, which I submitted towards the beginning of the year. This year so far has been pretty much a remix-year for me, haha.

"Everything was written beautifully. The transitions were well done, the movement of each peace flowed nicely, and every instrument was there when it needed to be."

Awesome, thanks for pointing that out!

Aha yes I see exactly what you mean. The thing about that is that these themes are around a minute long each and I didn't want to include a main theme in each one when each theme is so small. The reason they're sounding so separate from each other is because strictly speaking they are separate themes in-game. I tried as hard as I could to unite everything together but yeah, I agree that having a main melody in each theme would definitely tie everything together a lot better.

"Keep up the amazing work man. I rarely review classical music so sorry if whatever I say doesn't make sense!"

Naw man it makes tonnes of sense. Thanks a lot for leaving a review, I very much appreciate it :3.

woahhhhh you're still here! it's dj-bill hahahaha.

I see that you've never stopped using presets. Your melodies are excellent anyways so I don't really care that much. :)

Keep it up dude, we have so much to catch up on. you got skype or msn?

586rick responds:

I got MSN but not skype

thanks for the review

Very cool stuff dude. I only recommend fixing up the mid-higher frequencies. It just doesn't sound "Full" enough, if you know what I mean. It could be a lack of a sub bass, not really sure.

Glad to see that you're getting more serious with your music! I also have a soundcloud. soundcloud.com/byca

follow for follow? haha. can't wait for your next tune!

nice spiffy techno. reminds me a bit of robot wars, a bbs show. make it longer! :( please?
