awesome guitar skills. There were some brief seconds of hesitation, so I think you still have a ways to go, but i'm not saying nothing, I can't even play the piano, all my music is done through the glorious mouse. Long may she click.
Anyways, nice melody, I enjoyed it a good deal.
Thanx for the good vibe. Most of my music is done via mouse also.
Neat
hey Aeterminus (definately not Solus... really)
My first thought concerned that sound effect at the beginning, I remember that sound effect, and it's quite overused i'm afraid. I would advise removing it.
Other then that, this is actually a very dark ambiant track. Those pads are just so damn evil, and the laid back and chilled melody makes it pretty damn scary, like the mind of an insane psychotic murder being the pads, and the smile they give you being the melody.
Damn fine...
Keep them coming Aeterminus.
Alrighty then, if I make a V.2 of this song, say goodbye to that sound. Next, wasn't really meant to be evil. I see it now though, and that makes me happy.
And thank you for the review! Makes my day.

Awesome first try!
Hmm, I hear some good potential in you Exuropennae. The whole percussional aspect was rather mediocore (if you try using Reverb preset 4 (cathedral), I promise that it would give you a pretty damn neat effect)
Also, before the choirs come in, I would think a buildup would be in order.
Try to keep the sounds of synths down, the part where the choir and that synth is going off at the same time, the synth is FAR too loud.
Use the compresser effect in the master mixer, it will keep distortion and volume levels down a good deal.
You have good melodic work, but the song itself is repetitive.
However this sounds like my first song, so i'm not paying attention to the sounds persay, but the melody behind them.
Keep them coming Exuropennae, I see you hitting big, should you take your time and expand.
Thanks for the review, and the amazing tips. Yeah, i just got this program a few days ago. I was toying around with it and then started writing stuff. I'm a guitarist at heart, so a lot of this stuff may sound like crazy guitar solos and stuff. But as for these technical aspects, I'm just getting started. I have barely even messed with any settings or anything like that. This is just basic stuff right now. Me trying to learn it. But the positive feedback is amazing. Thanks.

Really kicking! I was bobbing my head for most of the time.
Good kick work, and the synths are fast, but still they leave a good effect. My only thought about this piece is, why there was no pad in use. I think a pad would have provided a good foundation for the rest of the song, it feels a tad empty like this.
Thats all I really have to say about this piece, it was pretty neat. Keep them coming!
pads eh, ye i could do another version of this sometime soon and maybe use a pad. thanks for the tip and revu

Impressive
I really liked it, it was full of energy, and was that a cheering crowd sfx I heard in the background.
I think you also did something a vocal? It sounds like robotised, chopped up voice, and that was amazing. You'll have to pm me and tell me how you did that.
Overall I don't think you're a beginniner at this in any aspect, It was pretty damn fine.
Just PMed you :). Hope it helped. And yeah, It was a cheering background. I made it a little quieter than normal so it doesn't overpower anything. So thanks for the review man.
Impressive
Hey G0RtH
Thoght i'd drop a visit at your page at 4:30 in the morning... yes, caffeine keeps the body alive so that it can self destruct slowly yes?
Anyways. I really liked this piece, truly it was ambiance. You've improved a LOT in such a short time. I would just say be careful with your sounds, remember to use the compresser effect in your master mixer, i'm hearing a great deal of distortion in the song, on the edges, not huge distortion that overpowers instruments, but distortion that says unmastered.
Other then that, at so late, this song really relaxed me. Take a visit to my new page sometime, and check out my new song, I think you'll like it.
I actually DID use the compressor... I had just forgotten to listen To the mp3 before I submitted it or I would have noticed tha t it was not EQd at all
Impressive
Damn fine, I really liked the feel for this piece. I am sorry I didn't have the time to check out the first version of the submission, so i'll write my review to this as if it were a different song entirely.
I really liked the flow for your song, the percussional aspects were damn fine, they flowed just as well as the song.
Your bass was bordering on overpowering, thats my one concern. I like the volume you have them at now, they really give some neat power, but if you had made them any louder, they would have overpowered everything else!
The song ends a tad too abruptly.
I use congo drums in my song too! I love the congo drums, I would like you to check my song out, as I worked a lot on those damn congo drums (I love them, but so hard to work with).
Overall, a damn fine piece, I really enjoyed it, keep them coming!
YES! isent congo drums sweet lmfao
Not bad
it does have a pretty stealthy feel to it, but I didn't think the claps helped at all. I feel that you should have removed those entirely.
Try adding reverb, preset 4 (cathedral) to the hi hats, I promise, the effect will be neat.
Also, try some nice, long extended notes, to make it more stealthy sounding.
Not bad, keep them coming, you'll get there!
thanks. btw, its 212 bpm.
Neat
heh, what a funky loop. Not much to work with, but it loops perfectly, and it did give me a laugh.
Good work.
thanx for the review
