[-TD- BTC (HardstyleTerror)]

some of the lyrics...

did you record that?

some of this lyrics kick major ass, especially how there EQed, i could totally see them in a "real" hardstyle song

everything else is bad though, but i think thats what you intended

Triented responds:

It is more of a terrorcore song, kindof like what neophyte does.

Yes I did record this. (edited 6/11/11 3:13 AM)

[Madness 09' DnB Spat]

i am a fan

agh ambient dnb, i fucking love it

that snare, idk whats about it, but i really love it

[The_Dark_King [Voice Acting]]

well then

pretty good as far as the recording goes, there are a couple of pops and stuff but its pretty good

dude, you should do some vocals for me xD

cant realy understand you though...

Box-Killa responds:

Lol yeah... Its pretty not understandable lol D:

[PureX (Final State)]

pretty good start

good chord arpegios, nothin amazing, but not bad

good start, build with the ambience, intro drags out a little bit, takes a bit for anyeone to hear that its going anywhere, but i do hear it

would probably have been better as a full blown ambient song, instead of dance

agh dude...that part after the ambient parts sound like its a completly different song, i wish it would have stayed in the ambient side along with the dance stuff

when the kick comes in, its a bit weak, try eqing and compressing your kicks to get some serious punch

the ambient half was good, the dance half was good after it got out of the intro, but when their both together, they dont fit or flow very well together

meh, could use a better ending, mabye fall back into the ambient section? : \

vocals were good, did you record those yourself? they were quite good

the dance part, now that i think of it, had like a bassline, kicks, hats and stuff, but you were missing a vital part, the awesome trance melodies dude!!! you gotta spend some time making really good melodies that go with the basslines, instead of relying on the basslines to do the job of the melody

hopefully my review wasnt to harsh : \

[DJB - Fighting To Live]

pretty good

its got a good unique style to it, its just missing in quality for some areas, like instruments and stuff...

the kick pattern gets really old pretty fast, try changing it up a little bit

lol yeah i submitted somthing to that EP as well, but i didnt read the rules so mine was just denied

dude i like the break about halfway through the song, help with some of the repetitiveness

i think some choirs would go well here, to create another depth in the song

all in all, its pretty good, but it could use a bit more

hey i got a new track up, mabye check it out, check what i can do :)

bossler13 responds:

thanks for the review.

I don't plan on changing the instruments. there is nothing I can find that fits well and I don't want to fuck with it much more

I do want to go back and work on the drums. that wasn't one of my top priorities at first.

[- LD - Contaminate]

sup dude!

hey i just joined rithum and thats how i found this, but ive been here longer

i like the first sorta synth that comes in thats not a bass, you know

dude those hi-hat arpegiations are awesome, pretty cool technique you did to get them to sound arp like that, cuz i know thats not the normal way for arping

^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | | | | | |

If any of that makes sense, congratz

i freaking hate that riff at 1:10, its just bad dude, sorry, my advice would be add some reeverb on somthing to make it have a more open feel, plus you should have a synth in there to do actual notes instead of just precussives

anyways, this song lacks some of the stuff i love in music like this, you need the epic-ass saw leads, your kick should trail on into the next kick, thats more of a personal taste thing though, i just like it when the kicks all trail together

PLUS it needs a better ending

it all could use alot of work, but this might not really be your style, so idk

hey dude hit me up on rithum, cuz i have no freakin clue how that site works

peace out dude

Breed responds:

First off your review is awesome. it's nice to actually get criticism. I hear a lot of either "this is awesome" or "this sucks" haha.

The riff you don't like is a percussion solo. I am obsessed with percussion and this is mostly just for me but its nice to know other people opinions of it. I think it's kinda clever although I would have prefered some better african drums then that standard fl studio clicky crap

I was considereing adding reverb or maybe even another layer to that main melody but i decided to keep a minimalistic feel which makes it easier to put out a really delicious mix. Notice any clipping or out of place volumes or badly done effects? I am a tech whore basically haha.

I used a shorter punchier kick to try to appeal to jumpstyle dancing more although I also like what your talking about the meshing of the kicks. I give a little taste of that with the transition using 3 16th note kicks put together and the reverse kick that leads into every other measure.

The epic saw in the beginning was originally in the main melody too but it was really hard for me to EQ properly so I dropped it cuz it sounded amateur as hell.

My ending sucks!!!!! I am an intro guy and I have always sucked at outros. Maybe something I should work on.

Anyways thanx for the awesome review I am gonna go return the favor and of course help on rithum.

Cheers!

[Piano_Force 2 [Box-Killa]]

i like it

did you change your piano sample? it sounds diffeerent to me

agh, some parts of it seem a bit too quite

1:03, those notes in that order are generic, very generic

OMG that fast parts after that is amazing

godthis track goes all over that place

realyl good stuff dude, i actually dont think i would be able to alot of this becauase it seems like its nto possible with only two hands

Box-Killa responds:

hehe Yeah that generic part, it was the only way i could get the first part to flow with the second. Meh :D Yay you cant play it... mission accomplished. lolz yeah it goes everywhere, except major, well maybe near the end there is some slight major, man im tiered and my grammar is fucked... seeyyaaaaaaa

[She_Remix [Box-Killa]]

again w/ the drums

the drums never get to their like full potential dude

the drums at :30 are good, but i think they would fit better as like a fill or a build up, not as a main riff for drums, they just dont sound right as the main drumset

i like the ending w/ the crackling

meh, its ok, just some execution problems with the drums to me

Box-Killa responds:

hmm yeahhh lol. the drumss.... Maybe they should like explode and then be really loud and full, yeah i know what you mean :D

thanks for the review :D

[Mute City [Box-Killa]]

i like it

its pretty good

he drums need to come in sometime soon, cuz its sorta lacking in drums for a dnb track

that bass could be better, it soulds to cheezy

i liked tha flange

i love the drums after the flange dude, good stuff

this is my sorta music, ambient drum and bass, tasty

ahh wtf it just ends....

its ok, it never really gets a sold feel with the drums and its ending is aweful

Box-Killa responds:

Coolies :D Yeah I knew you would like ambient dnb sorta thing. I love it too :D

Yeah those clearer drums are rad :D

yeah lol, END BITCH

LOOL

thanks for the review :D

[Who_Is_The_The_Best?]

lol

pretty good house drums you had goin, flows great

not a fan of the bass though, its too freakin adicy

i dont really know what to say as far as improvement, its not very good imo, im also a huge hater of house music

there should be more lyrics xD

Box-Killa responds:

Lol your review got marked useless. Meh I put little to no effort into this. I was just low on ego lol... Kidding, i dont really know :D Peaceout!
