[Megaman Bounce]

Its decent

~~REVIEW~~
Well this was notbad the file size seemed abit small but thats a good thing if you ask me, it had a great beat though i liked to be honest, also had astrange yet neat sound in there kinda faint and cant figure it out, but regardless it was a good sound and loved it, so keep up the good work, and keep at it. anyways good luck on your next entry.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
this was an all around track great size and since it was small that should give you room to add abit more of that unique sound but more of it.

[Ambient ranxx sky saw]

Soft and unique

~~REVIEW~~
Now this was a more soft sounding piece, kind of a "CREEPY" and scary feel, very mysterouse, kinda like the white origin of the tree from "AVATAR" it has that strange yet neat feel to it, still very neat, i think you should throw in some other sounds in there aswells o it has other dominating sounds, but still keep focus on the soft and uniqueness of it all, i really had fun listening and reviewing this delightfull piece, anyways keep up the awsome work here and hope to hear more of your stuff, and good luck on anything new you may be working on.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
ad some new sounds that are deeper sounding but nothing that would take away from the soft feel of it

[Midnight Shadows (WiP)]

It can be great if finished

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm ok well this was somewhat differant, it starts out super soft and then starts to build up, but then it gets cut off, i guess thats what you mean a "WORK-IN-PROGRESS" now i dont find anything wrong with that, its just i was getting into it and you did build up the song, so it was kind of a dissapointment when it cuts off, now i do hope you make a full version of this as it does seem to be something of good quality, so be sure to let me know if you ever do finish it, now for suggestions of improving, hmmm well first off dont cut it off like that haha, anyways keep up the decent work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Finish the track ofcourse that would be a plus, give from what i did get to hear it was perfect now just needs that finishing touch you got.

~X~

Step responds:

Yep, I actually asked in the Audio Forums for people to help me out with this. There's a good buildup, but then I'm not sure if I can reach the powerful and epic part after the buildup on my own, so I'm having a few people help me :D.
Glad you like it!

[Generic Rock Idea (WiP)]

Notbad

~~REVIEW~~
Ok so i decided to review some of your more current stuff, but i do like to hear ones older stuff before the newer stuff to see how one has improved, now this one here you have is notbad at all, the sound quality seems abit low, could just be me, but i like this sound, it has a good kick to it, there some drums and a guitar so thats pretty neat, guitar being my fave, but anyways this has a nice flow of track, and i did find myself enjoying it, its not matelica but its still pretty good, anyways nice job. im more of a classic rock person so if you have any of that i would love to hear some, as for this piece awsome work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Nothing major and it could be me, but sound seemed slightly low, but like i said not a biggie.

~X~

Step responds:

Well, I have Cobra which is Classical Rock, but I'm not sure if it's exactly Classical Rock. If you like Orchestral instruments with rock drums then you'll like it.
I think the drums were pretty good in this too ^^.
Thanks for the review, as always! :D.

[Dark ambient with beat]

abit messy

~~REVIEW~~
ok now, this was an interesting beat, i liked it for the variaty and differant feel, this was more of two differant parts with the "FIRST" part being really messy and not really going anywhere but it did have the variaty of stuff so i liked the variaty of it just wish it was more like the second part, and as for the "SECOND" part that was pretty amazing it was more streamlined and had more of a good feel of a song and such, i think this could all be better if the whole track was just all of the second part, so theres an idea for you to really get this on another level, anyways good luck with anything new.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
The second part towards the end was my fave so if you removed the messy first part and filled it with the ending style it will be perfect.

[Distant Seas Loop]

Differant but interesting

~~REVIEW~~
Now here is another good beat from you, the backround tune sounds familular though, some game ? cant figure it out though, now with this track there seemed to be alot of the same beat or too much in one area you might want to shorten that up abit so that there is actually differant mixes of sounds throughout it all, dont get me wrong its differant and i like it, it just needs abit of variaty, and not the same throughout the track, maybe add some "CHIMES" in the backround tune like every now and then to spice it up here and there, again just a thought to change things up, anyways nice job on this one.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As explained it needs something that changes it up so it doesnt sound the same all the way through, i suggested some chimes or something

~X~

Step responds:

Haha, why are you reviewing all my old songs? xD.

Anyway, yeah, I doubt I'll change this, but as usual, you're completely right. It sounds empty and boring and needs more synths, but this was my first song using FL Studio :P. Thanks for reviewing!

[The 10 and a half heroes]

Could be louder

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm this one was notbad but the sound "QUALITY" seemed abit low on it had to turn up the volume just abit, but anyways this was a differant track compared to some of the other ones i have heard, the piano is pretty good, but seems like you have a more slow tone going with this one, not a bad thing just something differant, i do think you should have differant spikes of higher tones now and then just to spice it up abit, but overall it was notbad and kind of a nifty little toon, kinda reminds me of finaal fantasy abit, but anyways another ok track i thought, not the best but ok, anyways keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Spike up some keyes now and then higher pitches would be nice, just once and awhile.

~X~

Step responds:

Yep, you're definititely right. Again, this is one of my really really old tracks, so I wasn't so good back then. I agree with you about making it more high pitched and more interesting, it's definitely quite boring as it is now.

Actually I think this is one of my worst tracks :P.

Thanks for the review, again :D.

[Turning The Pages]

another decent track

~~REVIEW~~
Now here is another good track, and really nice work with the piano, you really seem to know what you are doing here with the keyes once again, and i also like the mixture and variaty that it sometimes has, so props to you there on that aspect of things, also enjoy how you do try and make a song out of it and such, the "PIANO" work seems to be my fave, I dont review much audio but i am becoming a fan of your work, so i hope theres lots of goodies in your other works, now as to improve on this one, i would suggest adding more changes when new sounds come in, something that would just really change up the tone of things, but thats more just me, overall its pretty good stuff, keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Maybe change up the tune just abit now and then throughout the track. raise the sound abit on the piano so its abit more dominating.

~X~

Step responds:

Wow, you're good at reviews :P.

Yeah I used to spend a lot of time in front of the piano thinking up melodies. Now I just go in front of a computerized piano roll and invent melodies which don't take as long, so I'm glad you like the melody.

Glad you like the piano, it's my favourite instrument xD.

These are all my MIDI songs, so to be honest I'm surprised you actually like them. If you want to hear what I can do now, you should check out 'Racing Through Eternity' if you like Trance, 'Land of Kings' if you like Classical and 'Cobra' if you like Classical Rock (well mostly orchestral instruments with powerful rock drums).

Thanks for reviewing!

[Sky Falcons]

Decent.

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm ok, so this is actually not half bad, seems to be one of the popular choice aswell, the quality could be pumped up abit, but for what it is, its a pretty good track, i like the soft feel you got going with this, seems like a really good song going here all the keys seems to flow along with each new sound coming in, kinda reminds of something off a coast and beach, but anyways its really good i thought, now as to improve on something like this, not sure, but my first bet is the sound quality could be sharper and crisper.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As stated, the sound quality could be better and reworked if possible.

~X~

Step responds:

Yeah, I could easily rework this since I have much better instruments now. Before they were all midi which was horrible xP. This is my first ever submitted song, so don't expect wonders :P.

I'm glad you like the song nevertheless. Thanks for the review!

[Energy - seperate breakbeat 3]

The ending

~~REVIEW~~
Ok so i heard the first 2 and they sounds alot like the same thing, this one sounds still the same but also has like an ending to it, if you ask me i think they should all be put together and used as one song track, it would make for a neat track especially since this one is more of an ending one. so try it out and see what kinda results you get.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Ad the three small loops of versions 1,2,3 and make one better track out of it

~X~
