[Guppy's Quest OST 05 - Watching Clouds]

Very intense

Wow this was nice I found this piece to be very "INTENSE" that "PIANO" or board is really good you should really build it up and bring out the piano more but you seem to have done that, Not the Finest of the day but you had something very smooth, You have pushed fourth ideas and made this one interesting, So its almost time to end this review, and I dont wish to bore you any longer but just know I like my listen on this one today. And for me there is Immeasurable sounds like this, A nice track of sounds here with a mix of this and a mix of that, And those are just a few things that really drew me into this.

octopus58 responds:

Thank you very much X! That is actually a pluck in the background and not a piano but I agree I could have done a better job at bringing it out. I guess it'll all come with good practice :)

Thank you for all the kind words though and I am very glad you enjoyed, feedback always helps me out!

[Aphyllix - AntiMatter]

Wow nice

For some reason the start of it reminds me of a "ZELDA" theme but then it twists off into your own creation very nice and dark sound on this one, I wouldnt mind if half way it faded out and built back up with an intense vibe,
So I had a fun time with this track it gave me a lot of elements and some interesting things that just made the ecperience fun and thats what its all about so nice job, Alright so a nice sound a nice beat and nice track here it was unique in its own style of sounds and you bring that out and make it that unique tune that I like, but anyways I will stop babbling but I did enjoy this track.

Aphyllix responds:

Thanks! I know what you mean, though, good and bad, granted I didn't really think about the Zelda styled parts, but I see what you mean, thanks for the feedback! :)

Nice

So this was nice and has some really nice "GUITAR" atleast I think thats some guitar regardless it sounds really good and has some good quality about but my thing is that this should be longer more build ups even, besides that this was really solid work nice tune.

Remisser responds:

My dude this file was uploaded in 2003. I am now many computers removed from ever "improving" on this song lol

[Weird Vocal Harmony]

Interetsing track

So this was an interetsing track you have here I like the "SOUND" quality in this one seems a bit on the short side and seems like you could push it a little more, it has potential but should be longer and more indepth with other sounds and mixtures anyways nice track.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Could be longer

[Sea of Love Tears 「恋水の海」]

Really nice melody

Wow you are really talented the melody for one was pleasent and some solid flavor you push, I really love that "PIANO" too love the focus on that, I would try and ad some extra backround sounds maybe some soft ambient just as an idea, Alright so as to not bore you any longer I will end this review, but will say this was an interesting piece that caught my attention and really hope to hear more stuff like this especially if its yours so keep up the decent work and efforts, And well thats that I really enjoyed reviewing this and you really presented something very well here, I hope you keep making more stuff like this.

Tennon responds:

Yeah thats also my opinion

[Gear Head]

Nice mix

So there was a good mixture of sounds here like the piano at the start, and the "DRUMS" later thats a good build up I would love some more build up into a more intense vibe, There are some good and Fascinating things about this submission, sometimes Immeasurable but you found its Finest moment here on the portal, Love the originality of this it's a great great track! Keep up the good work you bring some nice emotion to this and make a style all your own I like the vibe this gives off and you really do put the effort into this one so nice work here on this one, keep at it.

Midnights-Ocean responds:

Hey thanks much for such an in depth response. I really appreciate good feedback! I agree on the things that need improving. This is rather unorthodox and I figured some trance heads might be lukewarm on it for that. I’m guessing if I gave better build/brake and doubled the length of those sweet sections (what you called piano), it would probably be more accessible for trance fans. Some other things could be improved too.

All in all though, I’m super happy you had so many nice things to say about it as is. Back when I made this (over 10 years ago), I didn’t have the discipline to keep to a more classic trance formula and now I don't want to change it too too much since I personally like how unique and off the wall it is. Also there's the issue of time. I’d love to really tune this piece up but with so many albums to polish and post before the end of the year (over 16 and counting), it’ll have to wait awhile. All that missing build brake is loads of little things that take me time the way I work (note by note). Thanks again! :)

[Oh, Be Clever - River (Zip Zap! Remix)]

Intense

Wow you have some "INTENSE" sound here and for being a remix I can see why you fell in love with this song really solid and your version is really good sounding, I would love some "ECHO" sounds in the backround might make it even more better but thats just an idea to throw your way, This had lots of pleasures of vibes and sounds, all rolled up into one tune and your work shows that here, so before I end this review I do wish to say that this was a grand pleasure, The path you might take with your direction here and other works is on you, just make sure to try new things and invest in the best possible monitoring environment and create your own style for the mostpart you have done that.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I would love some echo or random sound/fx sounds in the backround might make it even more better but thats just an idea to throw your way

[Pretentious]

Love the guitar

Wow I am in love with the "GUITAR" in this piece the "VOICE" and lyrics are pretty good too I think some higher pitced points in the voice along with high end strings might be a good build up point, So that was a decent tune you had in here, Some things could be better I thought but overall I found it to be an interesting tune, and would love to hear more stuff of yours in the near future, but anyways I had a good time with this one, it was a nifty track here, Great work with this, I normally admire anyone willing to do something different, its different but thats what I have come to love about it.

dude2312 responds:

Hey, XwaynecoltX thanks for checking my song! It was something totally different than what I normally do. I appreciate your constructive criticism as well!

Feel free to message me so we can talk more about these high pitched points in the voice. I could use those in new songs!

[Azura Oceana]

Very nice sound

I like the kick this "STARTS" off with a good beat good rythem and flows well, Now it does play straight through you should think about some build-ups in this, Alright so that was that you have a good piece here some good tunes, and while I am ending this review soon one last thing I will mention is that I had fun with this piece, And well that was that it was a pleasure finding this one and reviewing it ofcourse, you got the style and you keep it real, so keep that effort up on future works, and feel free to drop me a line and I will be glad to have a listen.

[Angry Hobo Tribute]

Strange

Well that was a rather "STRANGE" sound you have here but would be "PERFECT" for some sound/fx like in a sci-fi animation of sorts and such, seems like you could make this go longer even and ad much more to this, more random sounds and such mixtures like that.
