on Frome The Beginning feat Steinaa by Dj_ATA
As always the bass and kick are happy together. I really like this song mate. Great work on the melody and the break...AWSOME!!!

Love the outro to the break......how'd you do that?? Really good stuff man!!!

Dj_ATA replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Glad to see your review Salkizar and glad you like it !
i used a lot of filters for the outro !
and to be honest i take whole the idea for this snare from Oceanlab secret (Andrew Bayer remix) you should hear it if you didn't !
thanks for your review man =)

on heaven is hell by davesmith1983
not like me to leave a 2nd review, but I felt i had to. This song is complete. Wouldn't change a thing about the arrangement. However the mix is all that needs a tweak here n there. The kick is slightly too mid range. Needs a bit more bottom end. As does the bass..Maybe a little reverb on those synths too to give them a bigger sound....as with the hats and percs....but just a little not too much. Think that could make all the difference..

on Indian Trance by EnlightenedOne
ok man....constructive criticism...That indian piece you started with is awsome. Then the song gets all messy and goes in 10 different directions.

Stick with the part at the beginning and build on that. Create a bassline in the same key as the indian sitar then build in a kick drum to accompany it. Then you will have a firm grounding for a new trance track.

Upload it when you have done that, and see what response u get...i.e you should get some really good ideas you can work with, coz at the moment as i said it has too many things goin on to see it as a finished track....

I hope u dont take this the wrong way coz I am trying to help. I would rather be upfront than say....Yeah..pretty good track..No what I mean...

Cheers man thanx for taking the time to give me some pointers. I'll have to find some more better quality loops as well. I'll spend a lot more time defining a few exact sounds, thanx again.

THis is terrific man! Great sound...Great arrangement around the vox, and you really captured the feel of the vox with the melodies you have created. I'm favin this one! Real summer feeling to it!

on My Brain Is Working Overtime feat. Rivers Cuomo by SoundsOfEscape
nice remix although i havent heard the original I really like this song!! Kept waiting for it to go Boom...and blow me away but it never did...maybe i got it wrong...? Think the rhythm was a little repetitive for me and i wanted a straight 4 beat to come in,,,but I know i'll listen to it again and think different!

on Wonder K by AceZecA

on unique sound by techn1c
Some awsome stuff goin on in this track...bassline really stands out for me, and i like the plucky synth thing you have goin on too....Think you need to pull back the mid range freq though..could feel it drill my skull a little when i listened...Not a critique...just seems too high if u know wot i mean....Lookin forward to hearing the finished version though..hit me up when its done!!
techn1c
techn1c replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
yeah, I know what ya mean ..

After all, this song has 0% of mastering :)

Going to finish it sooner or later ;)

Cheers!

on Timberland remake by DjCarbonXxX
great piano melodies in here dude.....Really touching stuff!!

Defo fits into the hip hop genre....I would shorten the wave sample a little on that kick so it slaps more rather than boooooom...Know wot i mean?

Nice work so far....great melody!!!
DjCarbonXxX
DjCarbonXxX replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
yea i was thinking the bass was a little much also on that kick. its hard to tell with my headsets that i have. thanks for the comments :)

on Touching in the Dark by CalifKen
lovin the pads here man!! Like spivkurl said! Great stuff....Up that kick a little though..kinda lost in the mix...Coz those pads really need a bit of a banger drivin them onward and upward! Great sound man!!

on Somebody by Aivaras
Hmmm..i'm unsure of this one...as the track synth is in a different key to the vocal...however in a strange way it actually does work! Although I personally would prefer if it was all in the same key, but then that would remove a lot of the originality of your track......so maybe best left as is!!! Good work though man...Nice and original sound you have goin on!

on Aurora by Avail
I kniow I reviewed this before, but this time round it makes more sense.....I love how it builds all the way through...Can I hear a Leon Boiler influence in here?? This is really really good mate! Think last time i was in a mood for hard trance when i listened...glad i came back again!
Avail
Avail replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hey, thanks a lot dude. I've been into more mellow progressive trancers lately. And damn, you mentioned Leon Bolier, he's been my main guy for the past few months, awesome stuff.

on Impromptu by Avail
Hey mate...thought i'd stop by and see what u been up to...and i'm glad i did!! This track is really somethin else...took me on a journey listening to it...Love how you blended the piano work (which i love by the way, Classical style piano is something i adore!) into the hip hop beats and kept it flowing all the way...You say it wasn't that hard so that tells me your musical skill is really something! Fantastic track! Faved!
Avail
Avail replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thanx mate, a change to freshen up a bit is always good. I'm personally really satisfied with this too, but was disappointed by the number of the reviews :(
I guess it's easy to get lost in the hip hop feast going on on the site..

I really appreciate your opinion, a nice trancer coming soon hopefully =)

on alternating by moataz
really cool track man..great mix on this track...bassline is cool too...just needs to be longer and bigger...maybe a vocal would lift it to the next level...Great stuff so far!! Wanna hear the final version soon please!!!!!

on Dust Me Off by WOLFARD
oh yeah man!! Love the sax in this...this has sooooo much potential...wish it was longer..Bring that sax up in the mix and widen it too...add a clap and a couple of hats in the mix and this track will be sick!! Keep at this one man...it could be awsome!

on It Aint a Thang by thomsy
Hey Thomsy....I think the track rocks!! The arrangement is spot on...it kept me listening right to the end....the instruments used fit really well with the vocal...ONLY thing wrong is the mix...which is as u said because you are a novice producer...but the song as a whole is really frikkin good! Wouldn't mind mixing this myself actually but I would say the eq'ing is all that it really needs. More fullness on the bottom end, a bit of compression on the kick and some filtering to clean it up! Keep at it mate.....this is great!
thomsy
thomsy replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thanks so much for listening. I would love to hear what you could do with it if u mixed it if u ever get the chance. I had no idea what i was doing when EQing, was pretty much trial and error.
