Damn fine job on this
KB/MBM work with you on this?
Great job on it - nice intro - gives it a sort of a sitting in a padded cell feel. The percussion is very well done too - really good work on getting the lows to come through without messing with the overall levels - Cant say enough good things about it.
Definitely getting a 5 from me!
Yea Weekc helped me out a little on thisone, he made some changes to the lead instrument, made it softer, some changes on the leverls (i changed most of them again in the final-mix tho) and added the half-bassdrum/glitch thump that goes 1/4 throughout most part of the song. Rest is my doing, instruments are created by me, useing few samples from the reason soundfactory bank.
I tried to make all instruments hearable, even when everything is playing at the same time, but i think hte key to hhat lies in the buildup, presenting one instrument at a time, kindof, makes it easy for the ears/brain to follow when new stuff is introduced in the song.
Thanx alot for the review man, and for the five :D!!!

You're getting all 10's and a 5 from me - just because...
This isn't a real review, I know, but I figure you deserve the points and score for being such a faithful NG audio guy...
Now aint that special?
Same Comments
OK - the third track of yours and I'm really starting to get a feel for what you're doing.
Definitely change up the sounds - VST's are sorely needed!
Your composition isn't bad - the melodic elements are pretty good for techno stuff - You need pads or maybe even a few samples here and there to fill out your music. What are you using by the way? FL?
Same as before - I'm doing my part to combat the zero voters by giving you a 5!
Sorry it took me along time to respond. Ya I am using FL. Also I really dont know where to find VST's or if they are compatible with FL. If you have any help or advice you can give me... can you send to magnumhellfire@yahoo.com ?
PS- Thx for all of your reviews.
Not bad at all...
Same comments as for "Heavenly Ark" - I'm not a great techno judge...
I've listened to both so far and I think you might really want to consider doing something about the timbres - the actual sounds that you're using sound like presets and/or basic midi stuff - look into a few decent VST's - there are a ton of excellent freeware VST's that will expand your instrument selection and help your work sound a little more professional.
Good job on it overall - I'll vote 5 for the same reasons as "Heavenly Ark"
Tough one
I usually need to open with the disclaimer - I'm not a straight techno guy so take it all with a grain of salt...
This wasn't bad but it felt a little light - by that I mean that it didn't sound very big - maybe a few pads or even a bit more reverb would help fill it out a bit.
Maybe a little heavy on the arps but then I really can't judge techno very well...
I'm voting 5 on this because it sounds like you're really trying and I'm generally a pretty nice guy like that... Besides - it's only a matter of time until some jackhole votes zero and that sucks hard so maybe I can help keep the score up a little.
Keep it up!
Not bad at all
My one criticism is that the intro really didn't seem like it belonged with the rest - almost like we got the tail end of a very cool song and a transistion to an etirely different song.
To be honest I liked the intro much better than the rest of the song - it sounded like it had more potential to be something new and different - after the intro fades out and the rest of the song comes in it just becomes ... well, techno ... It was good enough - It's the same as what you might hear in a techno club around here but I think you could've done something to distinguish yourself a little more from the rest of the techno composers out there.
Keep in mind though that straight techno isn't exactly my thing so take any criticism with a grain (or a pund) of salt.
Overall it was well done and I'm voting 5 on it.
Hopr to hear more from you.
Thanks alot. And you are correct, I made the intro one day and then made the rest a couple days later. I did REALLY like where the intro was going, but obviously after a few days, my intentions had changed. I am thinking of doing a new song with that intro, so keep watching. Thanks again.
Nice stoned work...
Well, admittedly this was an early attempt in FL while a little ... enhanced... Not a chart topper but it actually wasn't bad - has potential if you can get it under control.
I'm giving you a 5 because I know someone out there will be an asshole and zero it - maybe I can help offset that...
Later!
Fu**in' AWESOME job on this
One of the best tracks I've heard in a while - Great use of percussive bits - timbres kicked all sorts of ass all over - can't say enough good things about it - Needless to say you get a 5 from me on this one!
Yep...
Same comments as on "Schizophrenic" same score too!
Damn fine job!
LOVED the orchestraic elements - great timbres across the board - awesome build up to a great track - This is awesome stuff!
I'm voting 5
I do all of the above. I mean it. I can back it up too.
