on Minor Setback by Spivkurl
You know alot of your stuff is quite simple spiv, but yet it works quite well! Although this doesn't sound too fast pace like DnB usually is. (160 bpm) But who the hell am I right?? lol breaking the rules makes you your own artist! Nice transitions throughout brudda! regards and respect

Yeah it is quite simple, you're right! This song was really brought together by the addition of the vocoder! Actually the tempo is a little faster at 172 BPM, though I admit it doesn't sound like it. Thanks much for the review and fave!

on sound of my dream by jimbo87
Really nice approach to the DnB genre man! The synths are very upbeat and happy but mellow at the same time. Nice syncopation within the drum pattern. And the wobbling bass is a nice touch man! great job!

on The Diva and the Shaman by Sukuta
Very traditional like my friend. Ambient and tense at the same time. the tabla and taiko compliment each other superbly. And the throat singing only adds to enrich the sound scape. a great mix and nice use of transitions and space. excellent work.

on Fear Of The Dark by Alen9R
I must admit i've been listening to some DnB lately, and i haven't realized how appealing it is! And the way the drums are arranged are interesting as well! I'm currently making my first DnB track using some sounds from that refill you passed to me! And it's sounding pretty ill so far! But anyways i really like the sounds used here, especially that high tension sound in the beginning. it sounds vaguely familiar...but it's great and it works. DnB master piece brudda. great job! regards

-And reason isn't that difficult to use. i could help you out if you want. Been composing with reason for a year in half now and i learned a bunch, especially in school! Although i wouldn't recommend mastering too "deeply" in reason. you can master the basics of course like the volume of your tracks, but i use izotope ozone 4 for mastering. at least that's just my preference. Although my opinion might change vastly when reason 6 comes out towards the end of the year!.

-Hey check my track man, it sounds pretty solid! i might adjust some more though. but take a listen if you want!

For the intro, I used few 3D_Fx loops,they are excellent,nice panning,and sounds a bit dark ! When/if you will upload dnb track, let me know,I will definitely listen and try to help you!

I am not producing in Reason, in FL I have a better view and it's easier for me to edit things! I use Reason as a sound library, all I need I made in Reason (which is usually basses, pad's, FX's) and then switch in the FL, and Edit as I want!

I for one part of mastering using Cool Edit!
I have Ozone 3, but frankly this thing drives me crazy,I just not know to properly use this Ozone thing hahaha!! I always get some sounds and not the desired effects on my tracks when I using ozone .... I dunno LOL!!

Anyway thanks Neo, appreciate your listening and feedback!

on the City at Night by CalifKen
Woot! i can hear this banging in the clubs! jeez excellent dance ready track to get people moving and grooving! lol i like the balance of the vocals in the mix as well, suttle, not too much, but just enough to hear while focusing on dancing to the beat! ha great job man

on Medieval by Lilik
Mixed with different "genres" you mean lol just had to man. anyways i love the intro, and the marching snares is really nice and dramatic! Nice strings and a nice piano as well! the mix is done quite well too! it does however sound like too many "common" movie soundtracks. try tackling different melodies and use of different instruments to get the same cinematic "presence" but will make it sound unique and stand out. but nonetheless i feel a nice upbeat dramaticness to this, and it is captured well. regards and respect

Sup allen! been a while! but Cotdammit! i need to make a DnB track already! this ish is ill! lol digging the vocal samples and stutters man! and you got some refills from phyruis?? mind passing them on to me man?? i really need some new ones! even though i practically got 1000's of sounds from refills already lol i use them sounds up faster than a fat man uses salad! and he doesn't, that's the point! lol but ill track and a great balance in the mix to boot! great track man! regards and respect

Thanks Neo!
I have a couple of new refills, Zero-G Ambient refills are quite interesting, I think you will like it,they are particularly good for your ambient/cinematic production!
You'll have to wait a while ,I must first upload to mediafire,then I will send you a link!

Thanks once again for listening and reviewing!

on lost in the clouds by Zelab
Indeed weird! i like the uniqueness of it though so far. The pitch shifted voice is pretty chilling in a way! i kind of have a weird track as well on my page, it's called "strange place". pretty nice! i didn't like the abrupt end though, could of used a fade out. great job!

on Spivkurl DMZ by Spivkurl
I really need to make a dub-step track one day, especially some grime. i actually made some grime and rapped on it but most likely will have to record it again. anyways nice approach at the genre, the wobbling bass is always a staple for the genre! it's very unique it gives off it's own vibe! very ill stuff you got you page spiv! regards and respect

on REGRET (Rough Draft) by yeshintae
Very ill use of the sample yeshintae! i see your really into the hip hop phase. i kind of feel from the hip hop scene to work on my cinematic kraft. so i haven't gotten to build on my hip hop kraft lately! not really into sampling on any of the hip hop beats i got though. i rather build from scratch ya know? but regardless this is ill, and a solid entry to the competition. regards and respect brudda

on Be It ft Gaffattack by ChaseManhattan
Sup chase! ha it looks like you chose gaffs beat from the loop challenge i had a while ago. i really that beat too. anyways but yea homie it seems like you rush alot of your tracks man, especially vocally wise. The vocals are really dry and non-present. And you could work on your flow alot more man. With even "one" verse i usually do on average maybe 50 takes. i don't like to be off time or have any imperfections. A little more emotion couldn't hurt either homie! The beat is right on, but you could of tackled it more efficiently. nonetheless this is just my honest critiquing bro, don't stop for the half-way. aint no such thing as a half-way "rap". lol regards and respect brudda

on Chanting by Proxy
Very ethnic sounding indeed proxy. which leads me to question what do you compose on for the majority of your tracks? But very nice track man. Allow me to share some of my imagery with you. (i haven't done that in a while, which i usually do with cinematic pieces) Anyways, i invision a ritual of sorts. maybe almost someone attempting to revive the dead. The group of individuals gathers around the campfire hoping they can bring back a loved one. A spell is casted by the elder of the group and lights the flame ablaze higher into the air....and a shock wave of gust tackles the individuals. And then smoke fills the atmosphere. Barely able to see, the group eagerly tries to see what is beyond the smoke in hopes that the spell has succeeded..but beyond the smoke is a horrific sight...their loved one risen from the dead within monster form...with bright red eyes..long sharp claws...and a ghastly disfigured body..with no emotion or recollection of memory..it attacks them...

*nevermind my question, i see on your other tracks you compose on fl.*

Proxy
Proxy replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thank you. That's a very specific imagery. I would like to be able to work with other programs as well but it took me a long time to get used to Fl studio.

on Rainy Day Melancholy xxx miss you feat CyberTooth by WaPer
Oops! i heard exactly what phyruis heard in the piano! it stutters and skips, almost like the piano isn't looped right. but that's just at the beginning so far that i've heard. but ha you collabed with ol' cybertooth did ya? i gotta collab with him one day. anyways but this is really intense though man! i still love that piano and especially the hard drums! and that underlying heavy string really makes a difference.ill track waper! regards

Paradoxal replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thanks for the review =) I tried to make some contrasts with the distorted bass/drums and the clean piano. Worked out quite good.

Haha yeah, I started on it a half year ago, but the total working time was about 35 hours. And under those months I worked on 5 other tracks as well.
I need to stop starting on new projects all the time.. damn being to creative x)

on Grime Time by ShowGunProductions
Well what do you know, i downloaded this beat a long time ago, and i forgot who made it on here. and now i found it! i didn't rap on it or anything though, i just liked the beat and saw it was up for download. anyways, a solid and creative melody gives this a great flow and forward march type of feel to it. great and ill job! lately i've also been feeling grime could be the new hip hop. nowadays the mainstream ish is getting washed up and it's annoying. i only have faith in a handful of mainstream artists like lupe and nas. but regards on the download and respect brudda!

on Fountains by Phyruis
Nice bit of ambient music Phyruis. Really sounds like fountains are pouring out of the monitors or headphones, which ever when you used to mix on. anyways a very nice mix, my only thing with ambient music is that "space" is also a useful asset. As it creates a more atmospheric presence rather than more musical. something similar to this maybe. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZX2N9_7NO8&feature=related But regardless that's just how i go about the genre. regards and respect
