[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.

[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!

[Guitar Partitia #1 - Romance]

Awsome track, i love it

~~REVIEW~~
Oh wow, as soon as i heard this it reminded me so much of "DUST IN THE WIND" and even though it was a lower version to me still sounds pretty good, i liked this alot and will ad it to my faves list, i love guitar solos and such and this was top notch, so nice job on it, it was clear and crisp sounding, a great sound and since it sounded alot like dust in the wind i was a fan fave, so nice job indeed, keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I think this is great as is really awsome stuff

~X~

Darkmaster603 responds:

Thanks, glad you liked it!

[SUIA-glock drop]

I found it interesting

~~REVIEW~~
Now this was a kicking track here and had abit of variaty to it aswell, it changed up really fast though, i think you should give time for each little version and let it flow from there, but it did have a unique sound throughout, so i was not complaining with that, it was entertaining, and it was neat to hear all these sounds, anyways nice job on this one.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I would like to see more time on the variations of stuff you had on here, there was alot going on so wanted more time with each little section.

~X~

superuberinsaneausm responds:

thanks,i really cant do anything with this because its the final thanks for the advice though!

[A Ticking Time Bomb]

Very neat sounding

~~REVIEW~~
Oh wow, now this is really something here, you were able to make a much better one here with this one over your other tack that was too soft, i love the "CHIMES" that really gives it its uniqueness to it, kinda reminds me of "A SMALL WORLD" from disneyland, but anyways the sound quality on this one was really good and you coul hear everything very well, it was generally a pleasent track and i would love to hear more like this soon.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As to improve on this, make the chimes more of a focus i know they are now but to me they are the best part.

~X~

Cimba responds:

Thanks for the review

[-+[Se Tu Mami Se Sospiri]+-]

Awsome again

~~REVIEW~~
Awsome song, i hope you are not leaving us as your music has always been a fave of mine since i have heard your stuff, as for this one, i dont understand it but it is so beatiful and pleasent, almost like a love story would be, heh maybe thats what it is, anyways it was once again a pleasure hearing your work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I thought you could make us more great stuff.

~X~

LadyArsenic responds:

Lol!
Funny you mention that. The character portrayed in this song is possibly one of the most cold-hearted bitches I've heard of in an aria/arietta. In a nutshell what she's saying here is "I love the way you love me and lavish me with attention, but I don't care about you. I'm going to keep oggling other men now, kthxbai"
Glad you enjoyed it though!
