Silent Nights

"Great Work"

submission: Silent Nights
date: December 3, 2009

Great piano work here, mate. I hope you get a good vocalist and it works out well.

You should go a bit lighter on the drums though, seeing as it is a ballad. Keep it up!

Well IzzyMoon the last reviewer before you has actually volunteered to do the vocals, she has a beautiful voice too. My computer crashed awhile back though and I just got it back up so it may be awhile before I can even work on the song again.

"Video Game Style"

date: November 8, 2009

This is a song that sounds like typical old-school video game soundtracks. Honestly, it's quite good but the lead should not loop for so long. Using the same sound, give the lead different notes, make unique parts.

I know it's only a demo and it's coming along nicely. Keep it up.

"I have checked out most of your stuff"

date: November 8, 2009

And I like this the most. I love the ambient parts as well as the hardcore drum and bass parts. However, I did get a bit sick of the hardcore drums at times. As cool as drum and bass get, you do need other good tracks to go with it for great songs.

Your drum and bass skills are good, but you need to work on your leads now. Create a catchy tune, then I think your music will be a lot better.

Keep going man, and good luck with your music!

"Nice"

Nice work here. The strings are epic. Personally, I would have liked some bass sounds but still very good.

Rucklo - Empirical

"Very Nice"

submission: Rucklo - Empirical
date: June 12, 2009

Great ambient work here. The sounds were very clear and the scratches were great (even though I'm not a big fan of scratches).

I rather liked the piercing, electric piano sounding notes around the middle. The strings that come in around 4:30 make that part epic.

Great work.

Amazing work! I love the '80s feel to it. Do you also play the drums or were they made in a program?

Author's Response:

Thanks man! I programmed the drums.

"Nice"

Could definitely do with some bass though. And that includes the bass drum too. The only drums used in this song are cymbals, hi-hats and snares.

I like the guitar except the ending was pretty terrible and sounded as if it was out of tune.

May 18, 2009

Author's Response:

All the drums were samples, heh. I suck at drumming so I just used stuff from FL.

And the guitar at the end being messed up is because I only recorded the verse/chorus once and then just repeated it, so the end sounds weird, heh. What can I say, it was a rough take. :P

Fanticide - Break Your Heart

"Nice"

date: March 24, 2009

Great song... though I agree with Night-Mare with the awkward short pause/how the bass comes in. Nice piano. Also, I have all your songs on NG on my iPod.

Sweet... i think you made your iPod 100 times better then it was before you put our stuff on it... :D
