[Bananataste!]

This is pretty good altough It's not my taste of Music.

I voted 5 cause U didn't deserve the low score u had.

Keep it going :D

Charmanzer responds:

thanks man!! i haven't really found my genre yet :P if you like hardcore you might wanna check out "cemetery train" wich is a hardcore remix of candymans themesong.

cheers!

[Knoytnaver! [hardstyle]]

it is Hardcore for sure. also work on the arrangement of the track and at the translitions. the rest is really good actually.

so keep it going

Charmanzer responds:

okay thanks for the advice! =) glad you liked it overall!

[Plummet-Damaged(Vaan Edit)]

first of all the vocals are to loud and especially in the klimax they don't sound so good. Also the lead is a bit to soft and doesn't really drag u away and give U that Trance felling. so what u can do is delet some vocals and make it's volume lower and also have a little bit of klimax ( prefferable the first part) without vocals and then add them when it repeats it self. ( like what the major artist does). add some volume to the bass would also be a bit higher and If u use massive sidechain u would still hear the kick.

these are just some tips actually. the melo is really cool tough I might one to remix it if your cool with that but well will see if i've got some time

Keep it going ;)

prodrift101 responds:

Thanks for your feedback. I literally just started using Parametric EQ to equalize my songs, I've still got a long way to go and I'm learning new things everyday.

[Nightlife]

A really like 80's/90's track especially with that tom :D

good job ;)

Oscar-is-Happy responds:

Thank you for the input ForeverBound! Your words are very much appreciated!

[I like eggs]

Really nice piano and great track. altough I would say it's more DnB like then Trance like.

also I've got the feeling the bass needs some more mastering and It does need a proper ending. That means no fade out. also add some more high notes for example with hihat's to the track that would really give it a bit of extra.

keep it going

Blackmajiick responds:

Well it's supposed to be a little darker, so I kind of wanted to avoid using a bunch of hi-hats and high notes. I also don't think it's fast enough to be DnB. I agree about the ending though.

Thanks for the review :D
(ending fixed)

[Fireworks]

I don't think Techno is the right genre, I think cinematic is much more correct tough. also It does sound a bit like it's all the same so work on more freq also add some cool progressions in it add uplifters and downlifters etc. and a warm bass can really change the mood so add one if u like to have it a bit more darkend like it is now. cause u don't have a really big bass under it

Keep it going.

ps: u can always ask for advice, U know where to find me ;)

[Makes you smile]

Hearing a lot of good stuff in this track, Best thing for u to work on are the sounds and EQ etc. also the bass is to high and it takes away power of the kick u should side chain it.

also some bigger progression would also be cool.

Keep it going!!

ps: keep working alot on the kick and the bass worked for me too it does sound a lot better with a good kick and a warm bass

Norato responds:

Every synth. sound is sidechained in Grosbeat by NI ( not the usual ,sidechain, preset, I have my own for different sounds ). And yes, you are right about EQ thing. I have REALLY bad headphones so I eq it on what I know not what I hear... Really need new speakers :-/

[Nexus 2 Burning Flare]

I think it is one of your better works jet altough I i skipped pretty fast throw your stuff. the bass is nice and the piano/ bells are also nice. u need to work on the drums and translitions also work on mastering. it's not that hard to master well just listen alot to the track and keep changing the volume of the the instruments ( atleast that's what I do for most of the part) and that would already make a big diffrence. eq is also handy to use.

good luck with that and hopefully we see some progression in your latest work ;)

[Mistakes]

YEAH a new track from u my friend wonderfull. It does need some mastering and the first instrument u hear is a bit meh but overal great track and welcome back ;)

KrisKrosNL responds:

Yeah, it's not well mastered, but I think the piano is just bad quality. I tried tweaking it a lot but it just stays bad.

Thanks for reviewing.
