on sweet nightmares by Ashnaia

I love psy/goa trance. I would instead of slowing down that vocal you use, just pitch shift it. Around 5:00 it's great. I would use a synth that is a little more active in some part of the song, like synth in 16th or eighth notes in an eerie key.

Great track!

on Midnight Heaven by Avail

Those plucks are really cool, one thing I would recommend is a different key, just a thought. Nice use of the bongos/congas/congos/whatever in it.

-DaMann

Avail replied Unknown

Thanks, what did you think about the key?

on Prevalance by Acrylic

Jamming drums and lead synth. the synth sounds like it could use a different key sometimes.

Great track!

on Brazil Delirar Salkizar Hunta Collab Project by Salkizar

The intro is pretty cool, but I think it calls for some strings. A whole orchestra! I like the acid synth arp thing a lot.

Great track!

-DaMann

Salkizar replied Unknown

thanks for the review man!! Dunno if my pc could handle a whole orchestra...but nice suggestion!!

on Unite by Tiltedbeats

That guitar is awesome! Or whatever it is. So chill, I don't think the kick fits in perfectly, I would try a different one or add a filter and some reverb maybe.

Great track!

-DaMann

Tiltedbeats replied Unknown

cheers for the review bro!
yer i know what you mean with the kick! i get bored of simple beats, so i like to go beyond it sometimes, and sometimes to far LOL! seeing as this was only a muck-around with some loops i tried some different beats! some peeps liked them, but hey can't please everyone!

i might try what you said, see what it sounds like with another kick ;)

cheers bro
Butcha

on Lance Johnson the Surfer by Planetjazzbass

The drum work is pretty great in the beggining, the bass is ridiculous on my sub woofer. Great samples, maybe run a few of them through a low pass filter? A little repetitive too.

Great track!

-DaMann

Planetjazzbass replied Unknown

Hey mate ...thanks for bringing that up!..I admit on completion I felt the same way...you know how it is when a Team's ahead in a game ..and they take their foot off the pedal a bit....I'll definitely do better next time...thank you for bringing this up..no more falling asleep at the wheel!..cheers :)

on living room sessions by mandarrosa

This track is awesome, could so be in a movie, classic sounding, and is that a guitar for the lead? BUT IT'S TOO SHORT!

Great track!

on Inside Your Mind........ by Salkizar

The beginning sounds great, better than the usual house song, most are so bland.

Great track!

-DaMann

Salkizar replied Unknown

on Where you are by DJVO

I really love the bassline and I am trying to figure out right now how to get one like that... Any suggestions?

Great track!

-DaMann

DJVO replied Unknown

you need an acid sound, and play it double on each kick

on Code Geass by Avail

Plenty of bass, or apparently the perfect frequency to shake my cabinet like hell. The bells are pretty cool. No lead melody ever drops, if you can't think of one, you could use an arp, pretty easy. Those notes around 3:40 could be the basis of your arp, built it around them, but with a different shorter sound.

-DaMann

Avail replied Unknown

Thanks for the review mann, i will take a look

on Silence ( Hardstyle Edit ) by Xcode

Intro is creepy eerie. But a little bit long, cut it back about 20 seconds. The track seems long for hardstyle, I guess it's different if you are stomping or shuffling though. Really cool synth. The whole song is a little repetitive, make it shorter.

Great track!

-DaMann

on Don't Get Me Down by Stuki

Intro is cool, what is it saying? Transitions smoothly between dnb and hip hop.

Great track!

-DaMann

Stuki replied Unknown

Thanks for the reply, much apreciated.

The intro voice is saying "This one is for Wanos". It's reffering to the nickname of my brother Wayne, who it's dedicated to. :)

DaMann 5th Dec 2008 05:56 - 16 years ago

on Chillen by Twitchman

For DnB you don't want to use the kick as much as you do, it interferes with the bass, I use 2 kicks per measure most of the time, and like every fourth measure will have 3 or 4. I like the bass a lot, something different, reminds me of Saint Germain.

Great Track!

-DaMann

on ENTRANCED by OmegaH32

I don't really like the layering of kicks in the beginning to much, I would say have both, or just one, not switching them out. Maybe use a snare or something in it's place. The intro is too long and repetitive, but its not its final mix, I see a bunch of potential in this though.

-DaMann

OmegaH32 replied Unknown

Yes you've said it all...and you're right 'bout that.As it is the raw setup of the track, i still
appreciate input and ideas to get to a finished product.So thank you very much for your review

on ClubStorm by Niclas199

Great track, catchy riff, I am not a big fan of that bass, too plucky sounding for me if you know what I mean. The FX you used in the beginning has been overused, I think it's an FL preset.

Great track!

-DaMann

on I mangled a cat today. by DazeMachine

Awesome, glitchy, scary. Great name! I like how you use the hip hop snare roll with this.

Great track!

-DaMann

DaMann 4th Dec 2008 01:50 - 16 years ago

on Light by DazeMachine

Great bass, great beats, I think some little vocal samples with distortion would be good too.

Great track!

-DaMann

DazeMachine replied Unknown

I think you might have something there!... I just gotta find the right ones really... Iunno...

on Fear is the only Darkness by ChiefJustice

The intro is pretty cool. Your reese bass could have a little more bass in it, just eq it. Interesting beats, in a good way, sounds like you panned them really well, the bass beat is really repetitive, mix it up. Kick snare kick snare kick snare kick kick snare... =D

Great track!

-DaMann

DaMann 4th Dec 2008 01:45 - 16 years ago

on default by pace

Did you record this, is it someone else, or is it you, because it says a clip from last night, just kind of confuses me. It is good music indeed, but against rules to put other people stuff. Well if this is yours you have a very good but beat, just need a song around it =D!

-DaMann

pace replied Unknown

its from me but just a short clip i haven't really developed it into anything yet thanks for the feedback. peace

on Party! by DJMS

Great intro, nice effects. Hardcore/hardstyle pretty much.

Great track!

-DaMann

DJMS replied Unknown

Thanks,Thanks!

on Old Greasy by Natron

The mic was probably to close to the kick drum, what you need in this song is a bass, or at least I am not hearing one, and good god, do you every stop rolling the bass drum?

great track!

-DaMann

Natron replied Unknown

Oh theres a bass but thats were the shitty mic comes in, it doesnt really pick up low end at all. Also there was no "drums" per say, they were all programmed and distorted. I love fast double kicks (i listen to a lot of deathmetal, Deicide, Cannibal Corpse, Nile, Decapitated, etc.) so thats why theres so much of it in the metal (if you want to call it that) i make.

DaMann 27th Nov 2008 23:44 - 17 years ago

on Jump For Your Life by lankybastardbear

The intro is a little long I would say, and the FX that go along with the claps don't quite match, good ideas though, but there is no lead, so it makes it sound very repetitive.

-DaMann

DaMann 25th Nov 2008 20:03 - 17 years ago

on The fall by Mcdahate

A cross between gabber, speedcore, and breakcore and classified as trance, got to be awesome! I really like the sampling in the intro, but I think you overdo it a bit much. Your kicks aren't quite right, they sound filtered and not near loud enough. With a little work this could be a really great track.

-DaMann

DaMann 25th Nov 2008 20:01 - 17 years ago

on Underworld by sensationdj

I really like 0:15 or so with that fading echo. This track sounds a lot like DJ Tiesto, his style, whatever style you call it.

Great track!

-DaMann

on synergy comp-"Planetary Bombardment" by Gsusfrk

The intro is awesome really chill, but I feel an assault of drums and bass coming in a few moments. Those pads add a lot to it. There energy never really drops like I expected, but still a really good track! Keeps changing and keeps me interested.

Great track!

-DaMann

Gsusfrk replied Unknown

Yah man, wicked review thanks a bunch! Drum n Bass' Bass can be hard to perfect...I think I made at least 6 different basses before this one actually fit (to me that is). Pad was difficult too, but only 1 thor synth, so it was simple :)
Just goes to show what a little persevierance and determination with patience and a good ear can get you :P
Thanks again
Steve
