on 99 circles by lilchicken4249

really crazy layers of sound, nice clarity and separation— really dig the melted bell tones.

a bollywood-bond love theme — you must film it! cool work!

on beauty-AniBit by anicomdan

very cool atmosphere, nice fx/changeup — a through-the-looking-glass quality.

xstokes 28th Sep 2020 02:44 - 5 years ago

on Indubitable by Sunbeats

very cool and full without being crowded, nice touches thru-out, the carnivalesque break/outro is so nice. fav sound micro-string swell 1:35.

Sunbeats replied 28th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

Thank you so much for the feedback!

on tunmi13 - Life or Death by tunmi13

tunmi, good to hear again on the loop! there is a real depth of feeling explored in this short space! fierce and gentle, an animal watching over its young, a matter of life or death. very fine, my friend!

on What U Did feat indoji by JMe2Max

hey again, J — i’d first recommend you edit this post and switching on the ‘Featured’ and ‘Looking for Collab’ options to give the alert to folks who’d have interest. i really don’t have any namedropping for you but again i recommend when you’re listening to tracks, take note of the ones that have Collab in the tagline. hey, if you like what you hear just reach out. man, you got an awful lot to offer and there’s opportunity coming your way — i feel it. get it out there, be positive, stay with it!

JMe2Max replied 27th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

Thanks!
I understand totally.
I will do :)

on Goosebumps by Taratuga

very cool — it’s a lot of fun, but at the same time the gun sound made think of no-knock warrants. so yeah i got a goosebump.

xstokes 27th Sep 2020 17:56 - 5 years ago

on Add it up Remix feat biggrojo by imola80

jesus, man that’s arresting. cool beyond genre.

imola80 replied 28th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

thanks mate!

on What U Did feat indoji by JMe2Max

JMe2Max replied 27th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

on Montagmorgen - Mondaymorning - kaufen ohne Geld by joecramer

compelling, compulsive, criminal. expressionist menace but performed with an allure that’s darkly uplifting. a stolen gem.

joecramer replied 27th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

A stolen gem but free for all to grab. :)
Thanks a lot for your well chosen words.

stay tuned
joe

on 06 Twisted Misery by Eighteen

full of cool detail and flourishes, this is a musical equivalent to the ‘uncanny valley’ effect in advanced computer-aided animations. scary, sensitive, sexy, artificial. they musta designed vocaloid with you in mind. echo ‘flares — brilliant.

Eighteen replied 28th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

That you for the listen stokes! :)

Haha it would be nice if they had me in mind when they created Vocaloid indeed haha

Cheers!

on Hero by Rafztar by RAFZTAR

i like that thick sound! cool bounce and the chorus is got that gritty thing going on that sounds perfect here. i’ll tune in for further developments — keep going!

RAFZTAR replied 26th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

thanks man just need a rapper now for a collab on the verses

xstokes 26th Sep 2020 15:08 - 5 years ago

on Save Us feat bigkk767 by JMe2Max

hello. just listened to the raw pella, and man i love what you heard in it in order to create this. it’s organic and soulful — the unfussy production is a big plus, the playing is great throughout. very cool stuff!

JMe2Max replied 27th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

Hey xstokes
Thanks very much! I very much appreciate your comment. I'm glad you like the work :)

on Its Raining At The Tiki Bar by ClickbaitCabaret

dunno if i’da made the telstar connect without the nod, but yeah. i’d liken it more to what was good about the ‘new romantics’ sound, less the self-serious tedium that made them a drag even tho they had some great synthpop ideas. this is fun, dark and stormy but really airy at the same time, a nice big melody and terrific instrumentation. i’m trying to decide whether to try entering the daw/vst-sphere so its cool you did a little name-dropping. digging your sounds a lot, man!

ClickbaitCabaret replied 26th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

There's tons of free VSTs out there as well as plugin producers having sales. As an example, awhile back I picked up Massive for 75 bucks rather than the usual $149.00. I have a 9 plugin suite from Izotope that worked out to 6 bucks a plugin I picked up during a one day flash sale they were having. Then there's Waves, the super Walmart of VST producers. They have sales constantly. Waves is mostly FX & mixing plugins. You just gotta keep scrounging the web for the free/90% off stuff when as it happens. That's all. Thanks for listening. I appreciate it.

on You have to fly away by joecramer

startling psychoacoustics, very heady music!

joecramer replied 26th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

It goes down like butter (as they say in German)
Thank you very much for these really friendly words!

stay tuned

on Smoothie by Micky

very cool fusion-y chill. keys made me think of m manieri’s electronic vibraphone, nice! and the squiggling gtr lead is perfect.

Micky replied 26th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

Hey xstokes, thank you for listening. I just recognized that I obviously have a thing for vibraphones. I just love the sound and to me it's timeless.
Peace,
Micky

on Project 5 by nanachip

really nice use of ambient sound, great drumlines

on Shelestial - Gundul Kepacul by Shelestial

this is a delight. what an uplifting rush you’ve created! i would love to see your visualizer — i’ve got wayang in my bald head! this has such a serenity to it i hope it soothed you in its making. thank you for sharing this!

Shelestial replied 25th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

hey there xstokes im glad you liked the track :)
i already post the visualizer link on the forum under ' music video ' category but you can search it right away on youtube too just type shelestial - gundul kepacul.

confession time '-')/
do you remember your guitar sample - held falled - ?
i had been tinkering with it for quit some time but i haven't got the grasp of what i really want to make with it so i made a new fresh project and voila this track came up.
so i guess i was a bit influenced by you in the making of this track and i still think that the guitar play style and effect would fit perfectly in the second part of the song.

cool transmission

on Still searching Melodic Dubstep track by Gojkovicdavid

i am not a tech but from this listener’s perspective you score bigtime on presence and definition in the sound department. i like the melody and was left wanting a variation or development of the theme. hey, i hope you take my wanting more as positive criticism!

Gojkovicdavid replied 24th Sep 2020 - 5 years ago

hi! i really apreciate the comment!...i am an 13 year old kid...ive been producing music for like 5 months....i am not so professional, but music is my passion...i do this every day and i keep learning new things every day!....i take seriosly every advice and comment!...i also have a youtobe channel i started 1 month ago.....i am trying every time to make more of an intresting song..but i always concentrate more on the drop..because its really hard to get all that supersaw..i am an stock plugin user....and its very hard to acive the perfect saw to complete the drop!.....the next songs i will make i will consider everithing more serios and nedd to improve a lot!...thanks for stopping by and telling me youre opinion.take care!

on Vampster based on Jeepster by TREX by raymond2wilson

i’m sure you’ll hear this a 1000 times, but it’s a gas. sneering backing vox and gtr solo nail it! excellent.
