Cool track

~~REVIEW~~
Notbad at all on this one, had a sorta "FINAL-FANTASY" feel, and i love how you had one part at a tempo then really change it up in another change up is awsome and the faster tempo was pretty good if you ask me, the "QUALITY" could have been better, more clearer sounds, maybe it was a mic issue but other then that this was pretty impressive very fast paced just like i like, anyways nice work keep it up.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
You had a change up from fast to faster i think you should add more of that, or even a few parts that build up aswell.

rtnario responds:

I hear the quality (after all, it's been five years) XD Thanks for the review!

[Eternal Memories at Midnight]

Too low sounding

~~REVIEW~~
Now i did like the soft feel of this but like another one i think this was just too low sounding, now if thats the intent i understand but i think you should have mixed up the volume sounds, so that it comes and goes or even have build up in it, But regardless of all that this was still a nice and nifty piece you made, just too low but like i said could mix things up, but anyways untill next time good luck.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
About low sounding i think you should have mixed up the volume sounds, so that it comes and goes or even have build up in it,

ObsidianSnow responds:

In terms of volume, it's too low because of an export problem I had back when I was using Reason 2.0. I've since upgraded, and no longer have this issue.

In terms of the flow, I agree. It could use a little more diversity. I'm not thinking I'll go back and mess with this one any more, though - this was written years ago. I might still use the theme somewhere in a different piece somewhere down the road, but we'll see.

In any case, I appreciate your constructive criticism, so thank you!

Fantastic

~~REVIEW~~
oh here is something nice and i love how this starts out very neat, and the quality is pretty good with the sounds and instraments, very good sounds here, now this almost sounds japanese, but anyways almost seems like you could add some vocals to this and it would be that much perfect, now as improving onto this, not too sure its already great and i would leave it as is, anyways great track here make more soon.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
hard to change anything on this as it was perfect.

Calamaistr responds:

its a little jewel :)

[Music Box Waltz]

Fantastic

~~REVIEW~~
Now this was very nice, infact i think ill save this one as a fave, but besides that i love the soft feel and you really allowed the music to live upto the name, i love the pleasent feel soft tones but some harder tones could help in this mainly towards the end, but most of this was pretty brilliant, and i enjoyed it mostly for its pleasent tones, so props to you on a nice piece i really liked what you presented here.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
some small build up would be nice but it was fine besides that

~X~

Rampant responds:

Thanks :)

I'll be writing a different/new version of the track, based on the same theme, this coming January. I'll definitely keep your feedback in mind when making the new one.

[Cream Cheese (feat. Tom Fulp)]

Notbad

~~REVIEW~~
This was notbad at all the vocals were ok, but i thought the vocals could have been abit more sharper there was some points were the sound gets "DISTORTED" but that was more or less the backround music sounds, but i did think this was amusing and it could sound better with some other sounds and instraments but the whole cream cheese was pretty interesting, so nice job there, good luck on anything else you got comming up.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
as suggested the guitar sometimes was getting in the way of the vocals, maybe some cleaning up and even more variaty of differant sounds.

~X~

Evil-Dog responds:

hmhmmMMMMmmmm...cream cheese

[etK-NightFlowers]

Pretty decent stuff

~~REVIEW~~
hmm this is interesting i really do like how you start this off with a slow buildup and the piano keyes are really nice has a nice feel and the build-up is pretty impressive, it really starts kicking in with some good vibes after the build up changing from soft to more over the edge thats a nice piece if you ask me, very welldone on this piece i enjoyed it and awsome job on the start buildup and climax ending brilliant stuff if you ask me.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
the track was great i however thought it was somewhat on the "SHORT-SIDe" could have been longer in the end.

~X~

etK responds:

Thank you very much for the review, I like interesting reviews like this one.
I'll remember what you said.
thanks =)

[HDC Presents: PhrOzen vs. Nadi]

Notbad

~~REVIEW~~
haha i must admit this was amusing, it was pretty good though and on the 2 verses, i would say the first one was more sharper and better quality, the 2nd one was more fast paced and not as clear and abit hard to understand at times, so as to improve maybe slow it down just a tad or spread it around just abit more, but other then that it was ok and i thought it was a decent track here.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
So i said to slow it down abit as there were some quality issues, besides that it was good effort

~X~

HDC responds:

hahaha glad ya enjoyed! there is always room for improvement. Thanks for the words!!

[ECHO - Inexorable]

It was ok

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm well this one was very soft sounding, and it had a very slow build up, theere also seemed to have a {SCRATCHY} sound aswell. so this was ok had to turn up the volume up alot so i could hear it better, but for the mostpart it was too soft throughout most of the little track, so that might be something to work on and look into the scratchy sound of it that could be more of a quality issue though, but anyways other then that it was an ok piece, just needs some work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
some scratchy sounds, and more volume needs to be throughout the whole piece.

~X~

Echo responds:

The scratchy sound is from the strings, and it's really there when strings play that sort of fast rhythm, so I can't and won't remove that since it's realistic and adds to the dynamic quality of the piece. As regards the volume, i agree that the piece could've been higher in volume, but a lot higher would have resulted in a drastic amount of clipping, so you'll understand if i preferred to play it safe and let users raise their own volume up to how much they want, but i do agree that this is a problem of mine that i am trying to fix.

Other than that, thanks for the review, even though i don't agree with you on the two points, i respect you opinion. Thanks ;)

[Destination -Dance-]

Decent track

~~REVIEW~~
Well notbad on another tune i love the {PIANO} on this one and how it starts, pretty good and all the sounds and instraments you did have in there was pretty interesting, the piano almost like a solo was very nice indeed, and very fast at times wich i really liked, so on that part i was really enjoying it, i liked it all to be honest, it was very nifty and had alot of differant stuff going on so once again nice job on this one, anyways keep up the decent work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
More of the piano solo would be great.

~X~

Step responds:

Thanks! I was quite proud of this when I finished it if I remember correctly. I was inspired by the many generic dance songs you hear on NG :3.

Glad you enjoyed it.

[Fiery Vengeance ~FNG~]

It was neat

~~REVIEW~~
Notbad with this one, it starts off right away with a {FAST-PACED} feel, wich i liked, but with the drums it gets too repetitive, you should really {MIX} it up with other sounds and imstraments especially with the long drum solo you have going on, dont get me wrong its pretty good just needs some mix in there, maybe even {SLOW} it down and {SPEED} it up, but other then that it is pretty good stuff, so keep up the good work. i look forward to hearing more stuff.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
more mixture in the drum solo

~X~

Omnivore responds:

Just remember: Trance is not based off of ultra drum solos and beats. Trance is built off of reproducing beats that collide within each other. As it progresses throughout the song, you don't really hear any changes in the beats. And I like your review, but you need to know your genres. I find this review more useful for a rock song, or a metal song. Also, this is a submission for a collab. No other instruments were meant to be used.
