on Quiet Aftertrance by CalifKen

This is an excellent fusion of styles, and you've intertwined them so thoughtfully. I really enjoy the almost classical feel to this track at certain moments. Beautiful transitions between phrases. This track really flows! I'm going to fave this one for sure!

CalifKen replied Unknown

I guess my secret to fusing styles is that I don't have a particular style in mind ever, I just select what sounds nice and go with it. It seems to be working out really well. Thank you so much Spivkurl, you are the Omni-looper - all seeing, all knowing, all hearing!! :D You are gold. Thanks - Ken

on fred(Remix) by TheseMetalDays

Cool remix! I like the choice of sounds in this mix, especially that simple bass patch. Very straightforward mix. I would think disco would be a bit more driven, but this really seems to work!

on Situations in Ya Mind ruff draft unmastered by victormusic01x

This is a great electro track! Puts me in mind of shriekback in a way. Really nice grooves on this track. Would be interesting to know when this was produced, I like the old school sound! Nice one!

on La Musica by Edge7

I really like the groove you've created with that piano sound, and the echoes that build up on the piano sound great. The drums and percussive effects are arranged really well, and the bass compliments those beats nicely. Very fun track!

on My Gypsy Lover by Rockym778

This track sounds like it could be cool, but that flanger type effect that you have on the entire mix is very repetetive and distracting. I'd like to hear more of the unaltered sound.

on Journey to the Center of the Universe by JWilson

There is definitely the unmistakeable feel of a journey with this track. The overall impression is very cinematic. I like when you bring in the big bassey pads. All of the sounds you chose are quite cool. Nice work!

Spivkurl 5th Sep 2009 20:40 - 16 years ago

on Demo 1 by Dj_Lex

I really like the bass line on this track. The open sound of the mix is very impressive and fun. I really like hearing organ type sounds in music so this trance is right up my alley. Nice sound effects too. Great work!

on Fill your hand you S.O.B. by bcway

This is a very fun track. The bass playing is very cool! I like the steppy feel of the track, if that makes any sense. The energy in this track builds up really nicely, and then fades away quickly and quietly. Really cool use of loops on this one. Great work overall!

bcway replied Unknown

Thank you Spivkurl for taking the time to listen and review my track. It means a lot since you are one of my top 5 favorite artists on this site.

Having fun with music is one of the very few great escapes in my life, away from the daily bull crap of my life. Fun is one thing, but when it is enjoyed by others, it's like icing on the cake. Thanks again.

on no title by atticdj

This is a wild track! I really like the chopped up piano lines. The vocal samples are very exciting too. I'm going to fave and DL this one. Nice work!

Spivkurl 2nd Sep 2009 23:40 - 16 years ago

on Govt by celestial1157

Dark and grimey it is! Love the samples and that bassline really works. Seems like you had some anger to work out with this one! Nice track!

celestial1157 replied Unknown

thanks man.
yeah i was really picky about the bass track for this one.
and surprisingly i didnt have any anger to vent out. haha

on Gein by necron90nine

This is a bizarre and dark track. I really enjoy the chopped up feel of the beats! I don't know if I've ever heard a track like this one, kind of like a genre of it's own. Nice work!

necron90nine replied Unknown

Hey thanks! Yeah i joked with the lady that it almost had a early 90's video game soundtrack feel to it.

on Anywhere (You Want Me) by inspire_nung

I really like how this track progresses and builds energy. The orchestration is very well thought out. The vocals are mixed well too. Nice track!

Spivkurl 2nd Sep 2009 23:24 - 16 years ago

on Little Star-remastered by lofthouse

This is a spectacular remix of an important song! It has kind of an eerie quality to it. I like the subtle mix on the drums, in fact the whole mix seems kind of etherial. Really nice work!

lofthouse replied Unknown

Thank u for always coming by to listen to my music.You are an amazing artist and your comments are always heartfelt and meaningful.Thanks so much!g.x

on Cigarette Burn by Deepspace

This is a really unique style! I like the sound of that string ensemble. This isn't usually what I think of as Drum and Bass, but it has a lot of creative merit. Nice drum beats!

Spivkurl 2nd Sep 2009 23:17 - 16 years ago

on Dance with Me by Vizronics

This is a very well produced track, and definitely danceable. I like how you've mixed the vocals, it's got that sizzle that I like to hear. Cool choice of synths too. Nice work!

Spivkurl 2nd Sep 2009 23:14 - 16 years ago

on For Her by Jesse_Silent_Productions

This is a nice track! I really like the melodies, they're very cheerful. I sure your girlfriend will be pleased with it. Thanks for sharing!

Jesse_Silent_Productions replied Unknown

thx...yea she really lovedd it :]

on Rush 09 (CMK) by CallMeKing

I like the unusual sweeping percussion that you've used on this track. The synth loop gets a little repetetive, despite being very cool. I like how you've mixed this track though, all aspects seem to be well represented. Nice work!

CallMeKing replied Unknown

Thanks Spivkurl for the review. Ill take what you said into consideration in my next track, maybe add breaks. Also ill check out some of your work.

on The Power - Electro house type thingy by aktolman

This is a very enjoyable track! I really think the mix is good, the bass sounds just right on my equipment. That said, the bass line is killer. I really like all the filters sweeping on the transitions. Very cool track!

aktolman replied Unknown

Cheers for the review man! I will be finishing this one off!

on Mean It - updated with VOCALS by d2d

This is a very cool groovey tune. I might be confused, but there are hardly any vocals on this, intentional I'm assuming. Really nice guitar playing and tone. I really enjoy the relaxed rhythm of this track! Nice one!

EDIT- Seems like you got the upload problems sorted. The vocals are great! This is even more groovey now!

on Cantus Ranocchio by n0mad23

This is a very exciting track, and so expressive! I like the frog atmospheres a lot. I feel unqualified to do a good review of this track, as I don't fully understand it's production. I do feel the psychedelia that you speak of though. Powerful track, I really like it!

n0mad23 replied Unknown

Thanks Spivkurl - this track is in many ways the direction I'm planning on going, it that it's a combination of sampling (loops) and my own analog instruments. The original geng gong (bamboo jew's harps) were recorded on a mulitrack and then brought into Ableton Live 7 LE where I added the percussion tracks. Mixed that all down, and then reloaded the "master" track and brought in the water drums and 7 tracks of frog field recordings. Sprinkle gris-gris say an incantation or two and voila. "Frog Song." Thanks for the review.

on Motif by CalifKen

This is one very well developed trance track! I really like the cool piano vibe. The bass sounds very good too. I like the unusual percussion sounds that you've used. Very nice melodies and progressions. This track is not very repetitive, which is nice to hear from trance. Nice work!

CalifKen replied Unknown

Mind you when I first put it together, OF COURSE there was a part that went on and on doing the same thing. But fortunately it was so bassy that I removed it, with the added side effect of not having like 60 seconds of the same sound. thanks for noticing! :)

on Air leak by DJVO

This track really shows that you were paying attention to details. I like the acidic style of the song. Very cool drum beats and drum sounds. I like the samples you've used to. Very cool arrangement and flow! You never disappoint with your trance tracks. Great work as usual!

Spivkurl 30th Aug 2009 18:44 - 16 years ago

on My Brain Is Working Overtime feat. Rivers Cuomo by SoundsOfEscape

I saw this remix opportunity, but haven't heard the original song. I really like this remix though. It's very atmospheric and the music seems to compliment the words. Nice work!

Spivkurl 30th Aug 2009 18:41 - 16 years ago

on Within Your Soul by PocketsRecording

Definitely a cool dance beat. It's nice to hear this pella again. I like the synth lead sound you've used, but It sounds like the delay on it is out of time with the tempo of the track. Maybe it was intentional though. Overall a cool track!

Spivkurl 30th Aug 2009 16:13 - 16 years ago

on underground powerstation by lkproductions09

This song makes me think of a glitching messed up video game soundtrack. I like the string sound you used. Fun song!
