on Schnell by DouglasS
This is an amazing tune. Your Chord Progressions are so Eighties (I recognize), but work so well. Beautiful sculpted production. Schnell, I would counter with Vite ou rapide en
français.

on Blow My Mind - Luizor EIM feat Newtro by Luizor
Well produced POP , Personally I hate auto tune, (I would rather hear your voice) but I know it's a part of modern pop now. good luck with the mix tape.
Overall a well oiled pop tune.

on Modnex - CLUB X by Modnex
I think to make this one massive you need some low end bass frequency drops that expand the frequency zone.
IMHO (I liked it)

on Xyilent - Pixel by XyIlent
Cool Intro....intrigued so far. As it builds great frequency spread and panning in the mix. I almost want that bass up in the mix a bit more to take the edge off the square wave ping synth sounds. But I love the concept and the song. The ping sounds are the highlight and now we have brassy synth sounds counterpointing it with a nice build wave sound but a bit letdown after that build. To make this massive you need to develop sounds to counter the counterpoint. (if that makes sense) like introducing a cool pad or other sounds as you go along just as creative. now we have glissando added to the pings with massive reverb, which sounds awesome but make it a part of something so much more.There is great potential in this one. develop it. (if you please)
IMHOP.

yeah it definitely needs more bass, something ill be working on.
ok, so some cool pads and stuff, i can do that :), there is a pad but its very much under the rest of the song.
Thanks crucethus, theres some really good feedback in there, ill be sure to put it to good use :)

Thanks.

This was a fun version of the mix. You definitely kept it close to home in the sound department but gave us a touch of the dubstep. nice work,

on Funky Thide of Sings by ScottB55
Love the fill at2:09, this is oozing with funk and delicious sounds. 2:40 has an awesome late seventies approach to funk. Reminds me of the Boston Band Heavy metal Horns just a bit in this part. Awesome work Scott!
Thanks for sharing this.

on What Bo Said by ZankFrappa
So What Zakk Frappe, sorry Zacharius Frappius.Stank Frackka. no still can't write it correctly...anyhoo what he(she) is trying to tell us is that the tune he(She) made is an homage to Bo Diddley who invented this style of progression called "The Bo Diddley beat" a 3-2 Clave rhythm used in Afro-Cuban music. I want Candy is one of the many tunes that uses this.
check this out.

It's a song about stealing, posing, ignoring and getting rich in the end. Don't forget to mention your "roots" when they are drowning in cheap alcohol, so they may get some bread crumbs from your table.

A business model perfected by Led Zeppelin.

on Deeper by KooLKYLE
Minimalist but very tasteful. I think if you added some low end wooshes on the first and second beat of the measure to this mix, you would have a dance floor winner.

on Razing Chronos by Byleth
I really like this one ant, you have some cool mix of sounds in an organized cacophony. Dissonance is the order of the day. Brass sounds sinister, the highly verbed sub pans are very cool in the background. good work. very creative.
Cru

Hi dear Crucethus, pretty nice feedback made for me

At least I was not the only one who love the bass drum "highly verbed pans" sound pretty nice with my new audio system

-ant4505

P.s try to don't call me "ant" for some reason people thing im a little insect and "ant" is for my name "ANThony" I prefer antho or ant4505.

on The alien tribes connection - Dream Dancer by joecramer
Geez, this is an awesome tune Joe, not exactly in the FR style as his head is squarely in the late eighties and nineties style of rave and underground K dance. This is like eighties tribal wave (I just invented that sub genre). The synth you used reminded me of Douglass Adams Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy for some reason. This is a very cool tune and I am glad u were inspired to make it.

joecramer replied 31st Jan 2015 - 11 years ago
:) I hope you had the old BBC version in your head and not this unfunny new.... the idea of alien nativ tribes could be realy a Adams thing.

Nice to hear that you like this tune.
Alot of dynamic of this one goes to Anubis. I used only 1 sample for this one but it is realy tribellike stuff that he pruduced.

I had a lot of fun doing this one, cause i didnd used my midi keys for longer times and i used my old DD-11 just to see how it works with power drums.

Thanks for youre nice and friendly words Cru

stay tuned

Yes, ferryterry has excellent acoustic loops on this site, like this one: http://www.looperman.com/loops/detail/58472

I used it on many of my tracks, here's some:

In here the drums are exclusively from Ezdrummer plugin, combined with some loops for congas.

Happy you liked this this track! Thanks again, Alex

on Monster by AxelStPatience
Very good song, a good song is one that stands up with just one instrument and vocals, and this one does. What direction do you see this song going in when you say "rock" and that you want to add guitar bass and drums. (what I guess i'm asking is what artist do you associate this song with the most)
Cru
AxelStPatience
AxelStPatience replied 30th Jan 2015 - 11 years ago
Hmm. That's a good question. I was debating if it was more pop or alternative or what! I guess I'd associate it with the Killers meets Lana Del Rey if that makes any sense what-so-ever. I just want something that helps move the song away from its acoustic nature.

on Marzipan by amaTheArtist
first of all congratulations on producing or recording your first song on this site and that you chose to share with all of us. It takes courage and of course we all want feedback and encouragement from our fellow artists. So let me begin by saying that this is a nice mellow piano progression that you wrote. I would classify this as more chillout or cinematic music than ambient but that's neither here nor there at this point. I assume by the sound of the piano that you mic'd your self playing it and dubbed over storm and summer ambiance sounds on the work. I would like you to re-record this and work on the rhythm of it, some chords you hesitate and it's obvious in the metering of this work. The chord progression is beautiful though and an excellent piece of writing. Minor keys are always so emotional sounding. If I were to expand this I would think about writing a cello part and adding some strong synth pads that grow as the song builds. (Danke is the master at creating warm inviting pad loops on this site, you should check out his selection). Overall keep working at this one as it has great potential. And welcome.
Cru

Thank you for all this great info! It was all played in via midi input from my keyboard. I used all software sounds and effects. I went back and forth with the timing, whether it should be straight on or a bit hesitant but, you are not the first to point this out so I will def address it. Ill check out what Danke has and work on building it more. Again thank you. :)
