I dont like this dry waveform...need mastering work(good EQuing,compressor work....and processing with timbres and rhytm)....
I like that you use guitar...but I see there many default sounds
I also like that you did melody work Eye-wink

needs a better snare sample, hard to hear, kick a bit too deep cut off some low end, the rhythm of the guitar? noise is cool, nice and fast paced this one. needs more textures and some different sounds. better production needed on a few instruments, but the actual song structure is good.

muddy mono beat & riff. no

this one is a strange but interesting tune.although it`s too monotone the bass is quite nice.there is an interesting alternance with some old school "tranzy" sequences...the song has a late 90`s print wich i like a lot...

The intro in this one sure

The intro in this one sure stands out not the typical DnB intro so to say. The vibe also stands out. The drums rolls nice but could need some work with decays and clarity. The first breakdown or what to call it with that piano thats a very nice vibe there. I dont like the other vibe as much with the organ and rest of elements following it along. But vibes are pretty personal. This one still has a very defined vibe and thats whats important Id say. Mixing wise there is some work to be done. To get drums stand out and some
more clarity for track as whole would be nice. One thing about the melody I dont like though is that it plays through the whole track almost the organ beeing the instrument mostly playing it and sometimes other intruments. It
gets a bit repetative also thinking about this melody plays in intro and outro you often want intros to not be as much as rest of the track but to hint what will come thereby raising anticipation. I this track has some great
componenets but it needs to get carried out a bit better.

62 - Not too keen on the choice of circus synth in the 1st section.  The drum loop needs more variation as it repeats without changing.  The bass
sound is heavy but the melody is simplistic and it gets a bit muddy.  Some more control over the release would help tighten it up I think.  The
vocoded voice sample is cool.  The piano adds an interesting melodic touch which I like.  There is a gritty sound in there too which I like.  Some more music variation wouldn't go amiss as it is very simple with one melody for almost all the parts.  This shows a 'copy and paste' form of composing.

i thought this track was ok until i heard the guitar, im not against using them in my work but i thought it was overused n turned into some sort of metal dnb mixture, n was probably totally intended, its just im not into that style, some nice sounds on it though rhodes n that


like the begining melody

like the begining melody sounds cool, the tune itself is not really my thing but its quite well put together!! The mix needs some work and maybe some rethinking about the melody's coz I dont think there quite fitting for the tune!


im really not keen on this

im really not keen on this kind of style sorry man its more like Tech/rock music with a dnb break i think the bass/synth at the start isnt 2 great its 2 random for my liking, i think more time editing/mastering would make it alot betta.

Sorry but I did’t

Sorry but I did’t really like this musically… also the beats sound a bit weak to me.. over compressed?  Hmmm, in fact I really don’t like this tune!  Glad this is anonymous!  Piano I don’t like… sorry!
