on 19 Note Paradise by Zooloo75
19 Note Paradise, why do you call it this, are there only 19 different piano hits in the piano loops you are using? I love the hi hats you are using. There is too much background noise though, kind of makes the piano sound all wompyjogged.

Great job!

The reason I called it 19 Note Paradise is because the main piano melody has 19 notes in it.
Thanks for the review.

on I luv Drums by Krook
I love drums too! Nice use of the congas? No these are bongos? Am I right? The little vox sounds pretty good too. The bass is pretty good. The synth at 1:30 or so is good, but doesn't fit quite right.

Great job!

Hi DaMann
Thanks for reviewing my track. yep you are right about the synth its a good sound but its coming in too quick. It was just a quick track I made up from a new CD I bought from loopmasters - Quantic House its got some real good sounds on it.
By the way Bongos and Congas Ha! Ha!
Thankyou

on K.o - Kid - R 'n' B by Shah2008
Those orchestral stabs are pretty tight. Then that wobbly synth is great! And the occasional other percussion instrument that sounds real unfiltered, I think it is a snare that sounds great. My only suggestion is make it more dynamic, it slowly adds on for the most part, I would say add on take off and add on then take off one last time but don't just peel them off and ease them on by fade in's and out's, use tension and make it more dramatic.

Great job!

on You simple by DJVO
That synth sounds great with the kick together, the chords you are using however are way to commonly used in my opinion, they sound good, but who hasn't used them? I really enjoy the 1:00 mark or so where the other synth goes off on it's own. The other synth is really good that comes in later!

Ohhh... I see, I never really pay attention to titles.

Great job!

on CP DUB #3 (BAD MAN SONG) by DJCP1
Go Amen Break! I love jungle! The samples are pretty cool. The bass is really good! Sounds like the kick clips a bunch when everything comes in, but maybe I am just hearing things.

Great job!

Thanks for the review. I'm glad you liked it. What you're hearing is distortion on one of the drum tracks.

on Lazyboy DarkHearted remix by lazyboy
AHHHH!!!! I had a page long review written and I accidentally pressed cancel... Well I will summarize... When the vocals say it's just one more... that is when I would bring in the beat. Then run the lead through a filter when they die down and use a cymbal or something to bring it back in. The lead is a little repetitive, but good. It holds the lowest part of the arp to long... it goes high lower loweeeeeeeeeeeeest, maybe you could go high lower lowest highest? Just some ideas, and maybe another lead, something echoey. You also need a bassline, and they are not hard to create. Take an analog synth use two saw waves and set them in octave 2 with high filter frequencies.

Just do something like this.
K=kick
B=bass

K-B-K-B-K-B-K-B-

Or my favorite...

KBBKBBKBBKBB

Tweak the velocities to get great sounds.

Good track!

on deep of ocean by inPublic
Title suits it well, the side chain or whatever string with a synth is great. The kick and bass are great! This song is great, the synth sounds like Reachers of Civilization by York. My only complain is the acid synth that comes in about 1:00 is a little uncalled for and the end of that loops that goes dadaDADA(I'm trying here) sounds a little 80's which doesn't blend with the modern mood of the track.

Great job!

Nice drums. Don't think I have seen you here recently. This is old school trance, which was the best.

Great job!

on S.U.B.A - you by SUBA
What are the voxes saying? I like ambient house a lot, especially at night. The thing I think it needs is a little more progression, it progresses very smoothly, but too slow I think. Kind of goes like this

.....,,,,,eeeeee|||||eeeee,,,,,.....

If that makes any sence it it just kind of stating how it slowly builds into one point of explosion, well not much of an explosion in ambient house, but the most energetic part I guess, I think there needs to be multiple plays of the chorus, with slight variations.

Still a great track, just trying to help.

Great job!

on angels and misfits by RadiumX
The synth is a little too hard, but still great, just maybe turn the shaper drive down. The percussion is awesome with the vox. I really don't think it needs any vocals.

Amazing track!

on the Original version of this song which is 5:05
the synth is more level.but because i had to edit
to about 1:30 out or so,to get it at 4mb,because it
is at 320kbps at 11.5mb's so i think also when you
upload a song here it gets re-encoded for bandwith
and compression.and again thanks for the review.

on China Butterfly by Devodale
I love classic synth sounds especially when in ambient. Isn't recorded with cassettes fun? Me and my brother had a project a few years ago with a 6 track yamaha, we still use it when he's in town. Wasn't there for the 80's but seemed like a missed a bunch... like the Stark Club in Dallas.... that sounded like the good ol' days.

Well Great Job!

on Machine by scratchrabbitt
That bassline is sick, the one complaint I have is take the reverb off the kick, just let it be a dirty kick.

Great job!

on Louie Who??? (With Sixfinger's attached) by Sixfingermusic
Well hello Sixfinger, I haven't seen Barcasa in a while. Everything is just jamming, I love funk! Are you from Mount Pleasant Texas? That sax or woodwind or whatever break is pretty cool, but maybe it should keep an element from the original song while it goes on, maybe just drums, maybe guitar, but I think it needs something. But I haven't heard Barcasa's song.

Great job!

on Bass Raver (Updated) by Niclas199
You just couldn't wait to get into the chorus? I think you need a good intro if you want a great song, don't get me wrong, this song is really good, but just needs an intro.

Great job!

on dusk by aka31seconds
Those sweeping pads are cool, but sound a bit overused in the beginning. When the drums are coming in that is awesome. The bass sounds a little too powerful though in the beginning, just needs to be toned down a bit. When everything is going it is awesome!

Great job!

on House Of Mind by disciple2jah
That synth comes in really unexpected, you need to find a way to work it in, and I would turn up your kick and make your bassline a little more dynamic.

Great job!

on Rave_5(madebyjannsen-Trance) by jannsen
That lead synth is awesome! I would try to introduce the drums in another way besides fading them in, just doesn't work in this tracks, works in some but not all.

What is that? A supersaw, yay! I LOVE supersaw pads.

Great job!

on DJ VcLorn The Extraterestrial - Black Drops by VcLorn
I like the stabby synth. The kick in the beginning sounds almost hardstyle, just not fast enough. Then those little bell thingies add a lot to the atmosphere.

Great job!

on Any idea's about name? by Niclas199
Some parts feel a little wide to me if you know what I mean, but I am by far no expert on mastering. As for a name....................

I feel like an island for some reason when listening to one, like a Utopia.

I don't know... but great track, a little repetitive but still good.
