[~Alfa~ Beyond]

Finally..

It's really nice to see someone make an actual "trance" song by definition. A nice melodic intro building up is what always defines the best trance. What turned me off most about this piece was the lack of a breakdown/buildup. The beginning was good with the build up of the song, but I expected some sort of breakdown during the middle of the song somewhere.

Overall the song is your usual melodic trance song. Not bad, but I hope my review gives you ideas for future pieces. Hope to hear more from you!

aliaspharow responds:

Well there is a breakdown, its just not your average pad breakdown. It's more of a melodic one. And the plan wasnt really to make a trance song by definition. Im trying to make art not a structured essay. You make it sound bland and borring. But you are right, if i would of noticed at the time, i should of probably gone with a more Traditional approach.

[Trance Hunter (Preview)]

A good start.

Some things I notice..The intro makes the song seem like its going to build up, and around 00:26 I expected some kind of exploision into the main melody and beat but that never happened, so it was more of a tease than anything. I do like the melody, bass and the beat you have going on, but you should do some break down/build ups because that will really get people into the song. Once you do that I can see this song really going somewhere. Hope my review helps!

djresset responds:

thanks as i said this is in progress

[Clayface - Ecstatic Flow]

Nice.

I agree with EssenceofTrance, I think the bass should be a little more powerful, it will keep the song more powerful, which I like. I also like the variation of the main melody, changing it up here and there, which makes the song interesting in my opinion. You got a nice song here, good work and keep it up! Hope to hear more from you. I do think the ending was a little to sudden though :P

mmmburgers responds:

I just fixed the bass, it has a bit more power to it now. =)
Thanks for the review man.

[np2loop]

well

Def, better then your old stuff..now make a song! :P

Pissomatik responds:

I'm in The Pitt right now. This project is now lost to me. So is any other. I don't have the files anymore. I think this is the third time I lost all my shit. Oh well. New stuff will come when I get the chance.

[<L||I> - How I do]

Well..

As for the beat it was fine..As for the vocals...Not impressed. As the guy below me said, this is like another version of Lil' Wayne. Some of the words when the girl came in, didn't really match..The Lyrics weren't that great either. Newgrounds #1 rapper?? Don't think so.

Lejin responds:

Your not very well informed are you? Lmfao you wouldnt know a good lyric even if it hit u in the face and knocked you the fuck out u stupid techno jammin krakker. Watch your racist ass when you talk about my artists you stupid misfit. Learn your place you white trash.

<<BANG>>KO!!

[Varthas' Quest (Volle Pulle)]

Well..

Beat is too weak for a techno song..Plus this sounds more like a video game then anything lol. Most of the song seemed random, plus with all the voices, didn't really do anything with the song.. For example the "whats this knob do?" Usually you want to say that when you are actually going to do something with the knob lol. What you did was just reverse a crash and thats pretty much it, which isn't doing anything to a knob.

Overall the song could use a lot of work. The transitions were terrible, and the infectious was just getting annoying after the second time around. Sorry, but there is a lot of work that there needs to be done for a hit song. Unfortunately this isn't one of those songs that blow my mind.

Hopefully this review helped your friend.

Ic3m4n responds:

Thats exactly was i told him, but he wont believe me ;) Nice that he can read this post of yours.

[Never Understand]

Hmm..

The piano seemed really bland...Obviously it is a generator that is used to make those sounds, you should try making the piano blend in more, it would make the piano sound more authentic, and better in my opinion. The rest was alright I guess. There are a lot of things to improve here.

Mushroomhead18nc responds:

I didnt use a generator here dude.. I right everything out by hand.. The only time I ever use generators is for Arpeggios and thats normally with Synth leads for faster paced techno.. I translate my guitar work into the piano on these slow songs since I cant record my guitar to my computer anymore.. but all the piano stuff is writin by me note for note.... I was in band and also in alot of garage bands.. I know quite a bit about musical theory but dont know alot.. so the piano would really be me playing guitar if this were real

[[UB] Point One]

Good start.

This should be under the video game genre..It's a good start, but there is room for improvement.

HeadCrabGary responds:

moved.

[Brando - Dont get back (Remix)]

Eh..

In my opinion, I think you have had a lot of better work then this. You really just have a voice saying don't get back the whole song..which gets boring quick. And then you reverse it or something, which makes it annoying by then...When the lead comes in about 1:25, I felt it didn't match with the song, and all out it wasn't a great effort imo.

Dj-Brand0 responds:

Thanks for the criticism, I can see you don't think there's much effort in this and it's true. But I still like it. The melody was based off the reverse vocals. Oh well. Thanks again.

-Cheers Brando

[Vision Eyes]

Nice.

The beginning is pretty good, I like how it opens up the whole song. The thing is, for a techno song, it has a pretty weak beat to it. Overall it's actually not a bad song..There are some room for improvements though, but other then that, its good! Keep it up.

BromineFlare responds:

thanks ! I know there's room for improvement, next time, I'll work on rhythm variations !
