on Hot 16 (Intro) by Niftizzle

OK... "smash you like a cashew" Haha! Was about to start chatting to you and heard that! Like it, nice word-smithery.

OK, how are you recording the vocals at the moment fam?

Who are your influences/who do you listen to for ideas/what to sound in the ball park of? Get back at me man.

Niftizzle replied Unknown

Thanks for the nice words

Im currently recording vocals with a decent mic and pre-amp setup. Nothing special. Me and one of my crew have a little studio weve thrown together in a spare bedroom of his crib. Homemade pop-filter, and a little rigged up vocal booth.

As far as influences go my man, everything influences me. I draw ideas from any and everything. Of course I like eminem and weezy. I also like some of Drake's word play, as well as T.I.'s and Juelz Santana. I do listen to some underground, Im not just mainstream haha. Aesop Rock, Little Brother and a few others.

Very sick.

EDIT: Not sure what you mean about BIG, but it's a goo track man. Feeling it.

on Feelings by Compligtd

Nice, you're on the right track man. Good to hear someone composing all the elements themselves. Keep it up fam.

on Mincedmeat 2nd version final cut by Djabel

Nice man, like the way you were cutting the break sample in and out. Feeling that.

Wow, just kicked in... Very nice. Good synth work too, some nice percussive synth elements in here...

on Hip Hop Beat 1 by Andrzej884

Hey, I like this man. It's nicely done, well put together samples and a nice little piano line too. Keep it up fam.

phantomhim 29th Jun 2010 23:39 - 15 years ago

on Feeling Fine by deathlyfresh

My fav one of yours I've heard so far man. Very nice. Nice bass line, nice top line synth and nice strings too. The levels are going up!

Just posted a new idea on the front page too, would appreciate some feedback.

Keep it up man, looking forward to hearing more..

Keep it up man.

on Equilibrium by JWilson

Hey, very nice. Moody and beautiful, you got skills fam. Check out the track i just posted on the main page and return the favour, this is getting faved.

Impressed. Sounds like some early Dizzee Rascal first album stuff, I'd be up for re-working this.

JWilson replied Unknown

Just gave a listen to it. Nice, unique style you have. Sure, I don't mind a little re-work. Just message me when you feel. Thanks for the listen as well.

phantomhim 29th Jun 2010 23:29 - 15 years ago

on Keep Quiet by AmnestieProductions

You need a top-line melody in this, as in a hook melody or just something to break it up a little. Don't have the same piano loop all the way though either. Solid tho, very tasteful bass fam.

Keep it up.

phantomhim 29th Jun 2010 23:19 - 15 years ago

on Tell Me What You Think Collab Chris Charles by Gordw

Some nice elements, nice use of the loops. If you get a chance check out the track i just posted too fam.

Keep it up!

Gordw replied Unknown

Thanks for the review, much appreciated. Take Care

on Electrical Storm by ChrisGoodwin

Raining hot fia! Nice use of the loops. Sounds RIGHT. How you figured that vocal loop would work is beyond me, but it does. Keep it up star.

ChrisGoodwin replied Unknown

Thanks man. But, I wanted to use that sample for about... three years, so I'm happy that it worked.

phantomhim 29th Jun 2010 22:15 - 15 years ago

on Get Me High Ft TRENTO Re-Release by SteveDro

Who's is the beat? Really nice, weeded lyrics too. : )

Check out my new track on the frontpage when you get a chance and return the favour g.

on Video Game-ish by brandon9594

If you haven't done any EQing you DO HAVE TO WORK ON IT. I didn't say you were terrible at EQing. Bayonetta is very hardcore, whoever said it sucks, doesn't have a clue about games. The most respected games mag on the Planet Famitsu of Japan gave it a perfect rating of 40/40, which about 10 games in history have managed.

Don't get upset with advice you get on here, you're going to need allot of it lol. So better start listening.

brandon9594 replied Unknown

the whole "no work needed" thing was a joke.This track to me is a joke.I know what I need and I know how to get it.I am not upset the slightest.Critisism is key-but when I am joking around I would like ppl to realize it.
And I rally want to play Bayonetta but I just havent the time nor cash.LOL!!

on The wanton dance by oreokoookizz

Like the perc/synth work at the start of this. If I was you I'd focus on that first part and expand it. Could be an excellent electro track, you got a good idea of rhythm. Keep it up man. Infact, if you send me that first part of the track, just minus the guitar in the background I think we could collab on this one.

Stay on it man, you're sounding good.

oreokoookizz replied Unknown

Hell ye man!!! how do i send something to you?

on Leagues Vs Broadcast by Leagues

Well it's your music, you're the boss of it. But if you put it up for opinions expect opinions and if you don't mention that in the description, only you know. : p

Well, good luck.

on Video Game-ish by brandon9594

Devil May Cry huh? Fam, have you played Bayonetta? Same guy that made DMC's new game and it's incredible. One of the best games of the year, just takes some time to get good at. Also AKIRA is one of the best films ever.

I've done a remix of one of the tracks from Bayonetta, It's on my page called "Blacklisted".

Good to see another Video Game fan in here.

As for the track, you need to work on the mixing and EQ and then bring in an element that brings it all together, it's too disjointed at the moment. Keep it up man.

brandon9594 replied Unknown

Thanks and I know there is ALOT to be done-i dont need to work on the mixing and eq(because i havent done any in the first place{lol})
I heard Bayonetta SUCKED-but thats just what G4 said :p

on Leagues Vs Broadcast by Leagues

Need to EQ that drum sample loop, bring the hi end end out. Nice choice of vocal sample. You should check out a guy on Ninja Choon called Bonobo. I think you'd like him/get some inspiration for your stuff. Also maybe some Amon Tobin and some of the tracks from Amnesiac and Kid A, which are two Radiohead albums if you're not already aware of them.

Keep it up man, one of the most interesting tracks I've heard posted today.

Leagues replied Unknown

Thanks for the advice, but I'm not going for clarity in my drums. I know about and have listened to all of the above artists you've mentioned. I'm particularly a fan of Prefuse 73. Yeah, people constantly tell I need to EQ. But maybe they don't see my vision the way I see it. I'm going for a more dusty but digital approach.

on Shangrila Aint Jus A Place by Nikonthaicon

Don't misunderstand me man, every MC sounds little like another. Everyones influenced by someone, just the way that it is.

Nikonthaicon replied Unknown

oh yea no doubt to that, see my homie Profes. Gilly got a wicked flow, reminds me of a young atmosphere befor he sold out... I wish I could sound somethin like that but from what Im told I got a pretty fresh flow.. haha but what do I kno
haha

phantomhim 29th Jun 2010 17:41 - 15 years ago

on My dimension by spek87

Some good riffs, I get a feeling your a Slipknot fan from the style. In-fact, I know you are or at least have been.

Not that it's a rip off, but I'm right aren't I? : )

Keep it up man, nice stuff.

phantomhim 29th Jun 2010 17:39 - 15 years ago

on massive attack by ajaxroll

You need to turn those synths down man. Way too loud in the mix right now. Drums remind me of Krust, check out this track on Youtube. Krust: Coded Language for ideas on the mix of the drums.

Need a hi hat in there to bring everything together too. It's a little too disjointed without something constant like a hat.

Peace.

phantomhim 29th Jun 2010 17:35 - 15 years ago

on rudeys beware by roughrider

You've got the right idea man. The rhythms are spot on, you've obviously listened to a fair amount of DNB. It's not my area of expertise, but you need to change that synth around at some point and get a different melody happening in there. Maybe double up one of the synths with the next octave up. That will flesh the beat out a little frequencies wise.

EQ your snare and hats with some more high end too.

Keep it up mate, good luck.
