[Einsamer Soldat{^}-{Alix1}-{^}]

Hmm

I'm seeing a very obvious occurrence with your songs so far. They are all very repetitive. I don't know if it's because your trying to make them too long or what it is. You may say that the poem has nothing to do with the song, but it's really not a bad mix. I think even just reading the poem in a sad voice while the music is playing might be a pretty decent mix. Maybe you should try playing around with vocals with this song and it may not be so noticeable with how repetitive it is. Also, the sound that happened right at the end of the song made me cring. :(

Overall - I wouldn't mind seeing how this would turn out with some simple vocals.

That is a good idea but i sing just as well as a whale just huffed some helium ( Just not as high pitched) Thanks for the review!

[Iced Tea Baby! {^}-{alix1}-{^}]

Much better than your other

This is much better than your other submission that I reviewed, but it was still pretty repetitive. The only thing was that you did mix this up a little bit, giving it some different sounds. It was actually quite catchy and I enjoyed listening to it. I even let it play two times through while I did some stuff around the room. Also very original in my opinion.

(Tell your girlfriend she came up with an interesting title. Actually not too bad for the song.)

Overall - Kind of repetitive, but very catchy and overall a fun song to listen to.

Thanks for the review!

[xD {^}-{Alix1}-{^}]

Hmmm

I liked the start up effect that you had at the beginning of your song, but after that to be honest it got quite repetitive. Anywhere from around 1:35 in the song and on wasn't too different at all. I think the song would have been much better if from 1:35 on you would have worked on the variety of the song. Also, around 2:00 it got extremely repetitive. Even more than it did earlier in the song. I recommend adding some more variety throughout the last half of the song. Perhaps add some cool sound effects or something else like that.

Overall - Very repetitive. Needs to have more variety because it can get boring rather fast. Also, kind of generic.

oh.. I'm sorry for the repitiveness. This is just how I learned my musics.

[Jxl180 - Distorted Dreams]

Not bad.

I enjoyed the introduction to the song and liked the nice little build up that you had. Kind of your generic trance song, but I guess they all are. The whole song did have a very dreamy sound to it so good job on fitting the song with the topic/title. It had a nice catchy beat to it and it was fun to listen to.

Overall - Perhaps a little generic, but I usually have the same feelings for every trance and every techno song that I listen to. :/ Still a fun song to listen to and pretty catchy.

I appreciate all the reviews you have written for my songs.

Thank you.

[express]

Not too bad.

I also noticed that at times the guitar was just a little sloppy, but my overall opinion on it was that it sounded pretty good. I don't think I really liked the "sliding" noise that you made with the guitar though. The song itself was pretty good and it was definitely worth a listen. I thought it had decent variety, beat, tune, etc...

Overall - Overall a pretty good song to listen to with a few things that I wouldn't say fit exactly, but still not bad.

NeverHundred responds:

Yeah, it's pretty here than there kind of. The part with the sliding was a little off because I slid the guitar pick from the head down two the frets where I sort of did a hammer down on the E and A strings... I liked the sound but it playing it right was a little difficult... but than it goes from that dark kind of atmosphere to a more upbeat light tone, which for me is typical wild and crazy spontaneous fun... but usually other people like songs to be more consistent than that.

[Natural State]

Pretty good.

The beginning of the song was sort of video game like and then it reminded me more of a space like song or at least it gave off that space like feeling of just floating around and everything. I like the build up effect that you used in the beginning of the song. The song had a lot of variety and never got too repetitive. Perhaps it could be something useful in the credits of a flash submission.

Overall - A pretty good song that is worth a listen. Pretty relaxing and it uses nice build up effects.

Thanks for the sweet review!

[Jxl180 - Throw Down]

First Review :)

I thought it was sort of interesting, but you can really tell that you rushed on this one. Throughout the entire thing a lot of sounds just sounded like they didn't really belong that much. Also, throughout a little bit of the song there were a couple of errors that I noticed. The one that stuck out the most to me was somewhere right around the 1 minute mark of the song.

Overall - A lot of interesting and great sounds in this song, but for the most part I don't think they really fit well together or at least they didn't fit that well the way that you had them.

I did put this together very fast.

Thank you,

[6AM No More]

I'll miss her?

So this song is about a girl? Or are you simply saying that you will miss working on this song? Because I guess you can take it either way here. :/ If it's a girl then I'm sorry.

Anyway, the song itself sort of has a sad tone to it. Pretty good beat to it and it is quite catchy to listen to. Maybe sounds like the credits to a movie or game that is finally over. Such as it took a very long time or that it has a little bit of a sad nature to it in the event of it being over.

Overall - The song is done pretty well and is very relaxing in nature while still containing an upbeat manner in most of the song. Good job all around.

GronmonSE responds:

It's about a girl. I end up making better songs when I'm feeling particular emotions I guess. A fight's behind the song's name and feeling.

Thanks for the review. You give out 10's too easily though :P

[Echo's Dream v.2]

Very dreamy.

This is a pretty cool song. I could see it being used in a RPG type game such as Final Fantasy or another related game during a dream part of a story. It really had that dreamy/relaxing feel to it that you would relate to dreams. It would probably be great for a introduction or in the credits of a flash submission. I actually might find use of this in the future so I might go ahead and add it to my favorites. Like I said in the game it would be great to use in a flash during something that would be considered a flash.

Overall - I think would be a very useful song for flash artist and I'll probably use it within the next year or so. Perhaps more than once.
