[The Fool Overconfident (demo)]

awesome

It's very weird indeed, but it's awesome. Quite good for a boss level or something in a game. The flutes are quite spastic :P But the sound cool. Only the flutes and drums and piano sound a bit dry. Try working with some more reverb: put it under the mixpanel and the turn aux 1 a bit up.

Nonetheless good job!

5/5, 10/10

ObsidianSnow responds:

lol "Quite good for a boss level or something in a game"? Epic. That's actually where the name came from - I want to use it in my RPG for when you take on a foe who is WAY beyond your skill level, or you do something dumb like decide you want to do the final boss fight when you're still using a toothpick for a weapon.

As for the 'verb... thanks. I was thinking about that just the other day, and you're definitely right. I gave it a shot about 20 minutes ago, before coming back here to respond... It's going to take some tweaking - the reverb seems to be overly sensitive on this one.

Not sure what you mean by the mixpanel, I'll take another look. It might not be in my version of Reason (2.5 lol) but I will certainly give that a shot.

Thanks for the awesome review, Mjattie!

[Shadows of Rave]

w00t

Good chord progression. I think it's more trance than dance. Quite good synths. Quite good drums, good melodies. Nice effects... but it misses something like wyldfyre said.

...Ah that's what it is: IT NEEDS SOME BASS. it misses some tones in the lower frequencies.

Not much else to say I guess, but you get a 9/10 and a 5/5

Mjattie

Shinrog responds:

The bass is pitched up, though I am trying to get something done with the lower frequencies, but I doubt I will actually change this part nor it will stand out too much.
As for the genre, I think that this is more closel to be Eurodance, which I believe is more dance-ish than trance.

[Kw- Afterthought (wip)]

I like your ambience

The ambience in this song is good man! I wanted to review the song you mailed but I guess you deleted it, so instead, I'll review this song ;) I love the mixture of ambient and trance :) The way you describe it really is true. I agree with MH16 about the drums and snare rols. I also agree that the bass line is too loud in the beginning. It sounds a bit crackly at some places, because of the bass, but it could be, if your speakers aren't that good, that they don't play the low tones, but I don't know...

I love the synth at 1:25 and also at 3:00. Good choices! The bass sounds also good.

overall: 5/5, 9/10, but the 9 is just for the few downsides of this song.

[Planet Reloaded]

sorry, for late response, but I was in Austria ;)

I don't really like the first synth you used. But your bass and other synths are awesome. Really professional sound, but the first synth which is the main synth just really sounds off. Drums are very good. The drum roll is also a bit strange, lol... And the house organ is cool! :)

I agree with Shenkhar: I think a side chained pad on the background that plays the chords will add a lot to this song, it doesn't really has to be present, but I think it'll help.

9/10, 5/5: it's very good but the main synth makes (in my opinion) it sound strange. Melody is quite catchy though.

Mjattie

Airprogressive responds:

thanks mjattie!

yeah the main synth has a very particular sound XD

[Super Happy Dance]

lol

I refuse to give you a 10/10 for this, just because it follows the same progression as blue dance. You could've made it in less than 5 min... Still, it's an awesome song.

4/5, 8/10

Mjattie

syphonmax responds:

lols I knew this was coming xD

Thanks lol

[Blue Dance V2]

w00t

Much better! It has more diversity and the "climax" is even better! I love the fx's and drums in this song! Quite nice melody that starts around 2:33.

5/5, 10/10

Mjattie

syphonmax responds:

Thanks =D

[Kw- Flying]

ambient quality

I love the ambience. Though I want a "climax" or something. The song is too short and that bugs me. I like the drums a bit louder (but maybe that's more for the climax I'd put in if I were you) But it's very nice, whatever you do! Good luck in that contest.

5/5, 10/10

Mjattie

nightsurfermusic responds:

Why thank you. The drums are louder now, maybe a bit too loud. God im so lazy ;)

[The Heist (A->N)]

I love the classical instrument along the synths

Very good song! I love the dramatic classical parts and the synths are also pretty nice done! Sinjim, you've done a great job mixing these two genres, so has RenoakRhythm off course!

Great quality music, the way it has to be!

5/5, 10/10, a fav. and download

Mjattie

ApproachingNirvana responds:

Thanks for the review, Mjattie! I'm glad to see you liked our blending of genres!

Thanks again!

[I <3 Electro House]

YES

very catchy and professional sound! I deffinately want to hear the full version!

5/5, 10/10

[Kw- Sky Like Spring]

good work

I like your melodies and your synths are also pretty good. But the reason why I give you a 8 out of 10 is because the drums are in my opinion just ruining your song. I'm sorry to say, but they sound very cheap (the drumrolls are OK though) but the strange breakbeat and quite standard FL samples make it sound cheap. I hate the kick you used the most of all haha

Sorry for the 8, but with better drums it would definitely be a 10/10. You've got a 5/5 from me though ;)

Mjattie

nightsurfermusic responds:

Yeah, the drums weren't standard FL, but yeah, i agree in some parts they could be better.
