on monsterage - undecided tittle by monsterage

Nice one here, Monster! Another deadmau5 like track. You two actually have a lot in common as deadmau5 aka Joel has a hard time with titles too. For this one I could picture a few different names being used. Here are a few: Golden age, HeartBeat, Eclipse, Somewhere over the Rsin-Note. Milky way, I don't know get creative lol.

Very good work as usual!

on In the still of the night by andreve1

Wow, this is one of the most beautiful tracks I've heard on this website in a long time and that truly is saying something. Your voice is great. Such emotion expressed in a very little time frame. Well done! I look forward to hearing your future music.

Thanks for sharing!

on One Night by Enzotic

I really like how chill this track is. The drums are nice on this one and the way used the sounds makes this one very special. Keep up the great work!

on House Track by wormfist

I would have liked to hear more in the beginning. A pad would have sufficed. I think the sounds need to be turned down and perhaps alter a bit. You should also thinking about adding some more filler sounds in this one, other than that nice one.

on Almost by yampaja

Great music here. Reminds me of video game music and I love that. The Indian based style really stands out in this track and makes me appreciate it that much more. I know this is six years late, but keep up the great work!

on Hailee Steinfeld - Starving ALL-DROP-REMIX by TrippyHippyCrew

Why am I just hearing this. I love the electronic feel you added to this. The original was nice but this track really gives the track a boost. The glitch effects you added on this makes this track so catchy and I love.

Keep up the great work!

on Risin Up by Spivkurl

Hey Spiv, I always enjoy your music. It's always different and what makes it better for me is the fact that you use custom synths you modded or made you self to create it, that's awesome. This one definitely fits into the psychedelic genre. It does wonders on my mind and makes me feel like I'm visiting another planet where gravity is non existent and the sky is made out of marshmallows.

I'm curious to how you come up with these creativity tracks. Do you have to be in a certain mood or does it just come naturally? Regardless, thanks once again for sharing this very creative track!

Hope to hear more soon!

Spivkurl replied 11th Aug 2017 - 8 years ago

Hello Modnex, thank you for taking a listen to this and leaving your comment!

I'm happy to hear you say that my music is "always different." I have a bit of an unhealthy obsession with doing things differently all of the time... it bleeds through into my whole life. It effects my cooking, my substance abuse, my gardening, even which route I take while walking somewhere.

How I come up with them? Hmmm.... I guess these sort of live tracks usually involve some sort of new or intense experience, the effect of which will not let go until I have expressed myself fully. It is far more healthy for me to express it in music than some of the other options. It is possible that I have several distinct personalities, and these sort of expressions are manifested within one of them. It "comes naturally" in that I don't control it fully, yet it also took years of preparation, practice, and engineering. Having the experiences which lead to things like this do come naturally to me, since I tend to wander and seek out the depths of what can be found.

Even simply having a title in mind can completely open up the possibility of something like this. Words can act like that marshmallow sky in my mind, even if they are not spoken aloud.

I appreciate your words and support! Have a good day!

on TEK - CRY pt 2 by Tekphearion

Nice work here! I like how you added different flavors on the track. The mix is well done and the sounds give the track an interesting vibe. I wish it was longer, maybe try adding to it but it does well like it is.

Thanks for sharing!

on ZUB Bass EDM Demo Ver 3 by NateJMusic

Nice start here to what could be a great track. I love the chords you made and that progressive vibe in the beginning. The switch up was nice and added variation and a new perspective to the track as a whole. I know this is only to show what can be done with your library, but you should think about making this into a real track. A lot of people would appreciate that gesture, including me.

Regardless nice work and nice sound creation!

NateJMusic replied 8th Aug 2017 - 8 years ago

Thanks man, I admit I was thinking about it. Let see what tomorrow brings

on Be My Sunshine Instrumental by BeatMaker4real

Nothing but relaxing vibes from this track. This track is a great chill out track and puts my mind to rest, which was I desperately needed.

Thanks for that!

on Lonely star by Zivonmusic

Great track here! I think this could fit into the chill-step genre. What really amazed me was your description for this track. It fits the sounds you created very well and takes my mind to another place.

Very nice work.

on Willow Smith - Female Energy - THC Remix by TrippyHippyCrew

Just listened to the original track and I have to say I really like your version. The original was great but yours did it a justice and added to that soul flavor on the track. I like the glitch sections you added in your track and think it really works here.

Great work here!
Hope to hear more in the future!

TrippyHippyCrew replied 2nd Aug 2017 - 8 years ago

Thank you! I really appreciate your thoughts on it. Let me know if you ever want to write a song together. Here's my group's email: trippyhippycrewofficial@gmail.com

on Creepy Magic Pond by Modnex and Beerling1970 by beerling1970

Hey man, thanks for making this. The sound effects mixing with the drums does add a creepy factor to this. I really like the little girl laughter that was used in this, definitely wasn't expecting that.

Very nice remix!

beerling1970 replied 31st Aug 2017 - 8 years ago

Thought it would make a nice creepy track hahaha

on Sin City by srob1234

Nice track here. srob! I like the vocal synth you used with that drum boost that comes in around :45 seconds. I think a great rapper could add so much to this track, I hope you can find one. Very good job at the mix down of this one.

Hope to hear more like it in the future.
Thanks for sharing!

on The Reason featuring Sheya by MrSpookd

Great track here! I'm a huge fan of house music and I have to say, this one was definitely not disappointing. This actually sounds very mainstream. One thing you could probably do to add to this is duplicate the vocals and layer them on top of each other. You could even add a reverb on top of the duplicated vocals and pan it more to the left while the main set is panned more to the right.

If I was you I would experiment with filters on the main vocals, as well as duplicating them once more, adding some cool glitch effects to it and placing the glitch set in sections of the song where the main vocals are not. These are just ideas though, but overall very nicely done.

MrSpookd replied 25th Jul 2017 - 8 years ago

Interesting ideas, vocals have been a sort of new spectrum to my music (I only started using them since I found Looperman) so I haven't figured out any sweet effects yet. But I will look into it. Thank you for the positive and elaborative comment :)

on The Trial By Anthoroid by Anthoroid

Woah there's a lot going on in this track and I like it very much. What type of drum n bass is this classified as? Would like to hear more of this type. The song structure is great and the way everything sits is also very nice. My one critic on this would probably be the loudness. In certain parts the track gets really loud and I had to turn my speakers down. Other than that nice one!

Anthoroid replied 24th Jul 2017 - 8 years ago

Thanks! I'm not exactly sure what type of DnB this would be called, but it was inspired by the drum pattern at 1:48 in 'Current Value - Strange Peace' and the bass sound at 0:44 in 'Posij - Hunger'. So maybe that's the kind of DnB you're looking for. Also, could you give me some tips on mastering tracks? I've been struggling with this for a long time now, and sometimes it results in my track sounding bad on some systems, and sometimes it's just too loud.

on Obokuri by giuliomusic

Nice start to your uploads here. I think everything here fits well. The melodies were very nice to listen to. My only criticism would be a little more variation. I was expecting new synths to come in somewhere in the middle to end of the track. It doesn't have to be anything special, just something to keep the song interesting. Regardless of that very nice work and hope to hear more from you in the future.

giuliomusic replied 22nd Jul 2017 - 8 years ago

Thanks for the feedback, will take note for future tracks

on screw you by slone1

Hello Slone,

I've noticed a few issues while listening to your track and thought I should point them out and try my best to help you fix them. The vocals on this track sounds too loud in my opinion and it makes it very difficult to hear what you're saying due to the amount of distortion the loudness is creating. One way you can fix that issue is by either turning down the vocals, making sure the levels are somewhat in the same range as the instrumental or you can even try to adjust the levels of the master channel.

I'm not entirely sure if the vocals are that way due to your work in your DAW or if it's from the way you recorded it. If the recording itself happens to be the issue, I would suggest you try to record it over. Make sure you have space between the microphone and yourself, that can help a lot when it comes to distortion. Once you do those things, I think you will see a big improvement. Keep striving for improvement and you'll get there one step at a time.

slone1 replied 21st Jul 2017 - 8 years ago

Thanks for the feedback. I never thought of turning down the master track. I will use this in future tacks and songs

on Looking at the Stars Preview by Gipish

Great track! Can't sing? You sound great! The instrumental along with the vocals makes this track out to be a mainstream track. The timing could be a little better as some parts in the song seem to be a little out of time, but other than that great work and hope you finish it.

Thanks for the listen,
Modnex

Gipish replied 22nd Jul 2017 - 8 years ago

Thank you bro. Definitely looking to finish it based on the feedback haha. I totally agree with the timing, I'll try to stay on beat when I record the final version.
Thanks for the love bro!

Great work! I love that old school vibe you guys placed on the track in the beginning. The instrumental is very nice and the vocals boost that by 10. Great collaboration here fellas, hope to hear more tracks like this in the future.

Thanks for sharing,

Dude this beat is so cool. I may try to rap on this if I do I'll send a link your way. Great work!

on Differences by Abilify

This is such a great piece. The emotion expressed within this track makes me speechless. I can picture so many things happening all at once just by listening to that beautiful piano. Like Spivkurl has stated, this one can definitely fit somewhere in a film.

I suggest making it longer, even though I know from experience, extending it can be easier said than done. Rather you choose to extend this or now. It is liked and appreciated by me. Thanks for sharing and hope to hear similar tracks like this in the future.

Nice track here! It had me nodding my head up and down. Everything sounds great and the sounds create such an elegant atmosphere. The mix sounds very well mixed, no complaints from me.

Great work!

on The Chase - Volca Experimentation by Allochtune

Nice one here. The instruments chosen remind me of an attari game and hat brings back memories. The track is very catchy and makes me want to dance.

Overall very nice track keep up the solid work mate!

Allochtune replied 19th Jul 2017 - 8 years ago

That wasn't my intention, but man, now that I am listening to some Atari tracks I can't help but notice the similarities. I can imagine that some of my experimentation with new sounds might also share some similarities in how the 4bit/8bit sounds were created in an Atari game system. But that is just guesswork. Thank you for your compliments, I have spent quite some time on this track, so I am happy you liked it!
