on Bendable Rhubarb? by Rorshach2021
second track ive heard of yours, and i am certainly not bored yet. I think its the lfo and filters applied on the higher lead line that really make the diffrence. Just wondering, what do you make all your tracks in? and how do you apply filters, etc?

on Moment at Moonrise-(UPDATED!!) by TRIS
i liked the intro best in this song. Builds up quite nicley, and the synths compliment the beat really well! I like the change in the first half as well! I have just made my first trance track, maybe you could check it out, tell us what you think? great work, keep it up! -Lorin xD

on Midnight Heaven by Avail
i loved this track, really defines the meaning of trance! i think it should have a light, airy synth line like you have, and a beat which pulls you in. A sweet track and really well done, keep it up!

on Pulse by thedevil
Well, i dont know what exactly you mean when you say 'come down', but if your talking about coming down on E, this seems to fit? A nice usage of panned synths and sequencing, the bass was a little subsonic for my liking though. wow and the guitar just came in, nice!! and now there is a break in it which fits nicley. accually the bass gives it a really epic kinda sound. Really good work!

That's exactly what I mean by 'come down.' Well, not necessarily E...any drug. Any drug except the marijuana, I guess. Thanks for taking the time to give it a listen and more so for the review!

on orbital tribe by chriskemmy
i really enjoyed this track! i liked the rolling drumline, and the crazy koto-synths! it gave it a unique sound that not many other techno tracks had. The glitch type noise fitted in really well, only thing i would comment on was having a shorter intro? a really good track keep it up! -Lorin xD
chriskemmy
chriskemmy replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
hey lorin.cheers for the review.the only reason theres such a long intro is because i made this song 3 days before i was playing a set n needed the intro to loop n resample it.havent got around 2 changing it yet

on Off My Mind Ft. Ryan Birnie by Fresco
loving the guitar sound, the chord progression is the same as 'snow' by chilli peppers. But hey, you cant copyright chord progressions. The piano goes nicley, athe drums sound suitably epic, and i think a little more drive on the lead would of amde it even better! an awesome song!

on Lance Johnson the Surfer by Planetjazzbass
I love the reverb on the drums, gives it an awesome big sound, especially on teh bass. And the guitar licks are sweet! what reverb did you apply?
Planetjazzbass
Planetjazzbass replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hi Lorin...I've used a bit of stuff in this track..the bass drum hit has a lot of compression and fattened up with some Nomad Industries 'Max Warmth'filter..then a Cathedral reverb from WizooVerb5 with it's tail shortened was added...that's only one segment the whole track was then..mastered using various plug-ins (T-Racks..IzoTope Ozone...URS Console Strip Pro......thanks for the kind review ..cheers planet :)

on A Little Blues Jam by Jeff05C
I lovvvve the blues, and I can pick up all those sweet riffs youve been using! Did you use an overdrive pedal at one point near teh first quater of the song? i like it , got a nice sound! the piano goes along really well with the guitar as well! I think maybe moving up the fretboard a bit with your licks would of added a bit more vareity? but who am i to judge really. and i like the wah sound, really got it goin well! wow and its home-made, nice!

Jeff05C replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hi, Thanks for the feedback!
I used a Ibanez Tube King on the second lead section (where you can hear it go from one tone to another) and it was going through my V-amp 2 which I'm still figuring out. The tube king is amazing though, there is nothing it doesn't seem to do well, and I don't mean only blues. Thanks for the input and the tips, always glad to get some recommendations.

Thanks

on Synth Overload by ToxicVoltage
awesome collabaration of loops, i like the drum beat! it sounds like there are crowds cheering in the background at one point lol which would be pretty cool. nice synth leads used as well. Did you make any loops yourself? i like this track!!
ToxicVoltage
ToxicVoltage replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

on Toxic Planet by ToxicVoltage
there are some great loops used here, and the flanging on the synths is also really intresting. I love the beat as well! it all comes together well, and the vocals are col as well :) keep makin music! and yeah, i dont really have any advice about your parental situation but remember, we are all but a speck in the infinity of time! try meditating, it always works as long as you put your mind to it. Or rather, not to anything.
anyways sweet trax!

on The Christmas Song Cover by santiagosky
holy ass your voice is great!!! it goes really well with the synths as well! only advice i could give would be a little more reverb on the strings but thats not even that important. youve got some major talent! ive seen people win american idol who are not as good as you!!
