[X.-I Envisioned You-. RMX]

Alright.

imho, the drums completely ruined the song for me.

When I read that you added drums into the song, I was thinking of drums that were softer, slower, and easier on the ears. But instead all I heard were highly compressed, hard trance drums. I was disappointed man.

So since you didn't add anything to the original tune, and only added two drum loops and an intro reverb kick, I have to give this song a 6.

3/5, 6/10.

XenoxX responds:

if you read it correctly It was never planned to add anything else except drums. So that's what I did. on MSN I told HFX I would add drums for her but I said to add her version anyways because It would take me awhile because the BPM was 220. And I also added a a lead. Thanks for the review none the less.

[Anxiety Cure _ RR]

Awesome!

This is a cool beat.
I like how the tempo changes from the intro to the first tune.
I was tripping out at first but then realized it works.

I like all the variations of the tune.
Drums go perfectly with the song.
great job with this one.
5/5, 9/10

RenoakRhythm responds:

Mr 425.... good to see you again.

Um, ya... it has a mind bending change but it makes a decent full circle and recovery... i was going for something a little different.

Thanks for the review.

[I Envisioned You =HFX=]

Awesome

This is a great Happy tune. The piano is great.
The flute and wind instruments were used perfectly.

I loved how this song encorporated as many instruments as possible. It really completed the song.

My Only suggestion would be to turn down the volume of the piano from 0:17 to 0:25. Other than that, everything is great.

This is a very optimistic song with a lot of feeling packed into it.
great job with this one.
5/5, 9/10

Phyrnna responds:

I'm really glad that you liked it.
I did indeed use a lot of instruments on this song.
Music box, piano, glockenspiel, harp, flute, piccolo, pizzicato strings, bass.

As for the piano in that section, I suppose I could. Although I did want to give off the impression of an unrefined recording that in the transition at 0:27, gets "refined" into a fine sounding piano.

Thank you again for enjoying! :D

[[tf] We'll Work it Out]

Damn!

This is sick. I don't think I that I've heard a song as epic ass one in a long time.

I can tell you put a lot of hard work into this one. It's the perfect length, and it never gets repetitive. I actually just want to keep listening to it on loop.

The intro is dope. It sequences perfectly into the tune. The bass that you are using sounds amazing man.

The lead that you chose for the main tune was a good one. It's not to loud, or soft. it's right in between.

At 1:00, I knew this was a great song. You added exactly the tune I wanted to hear.

The drums sounded great, but they could have had a little more variation. I'm not sure tho. haha R&B isn't my strong point.

Great job wit this one man.
5/5, 9/10, Fav'd

takeflight responds:

wow, thanx man, i love to see someone enjoy my work. I'm already working on fixing it, adding a little variation, and trying a different mastering technique.

[Tribute to Trance (Krussi)]

Awesome!

This song sounds amazing. You Gotta Love that piano! haha it's so simple yet so awesome.

all of the transition effects are used perfectly man. especially the one at 0:57. That sounds professional.

When the main lead came in at 0:44, it completed the song.
The Drums are perfectly balanced with the rest of the song. They're not overpowering or too quiet like the majority of songs on NG.

I can't ask for much more than what this song gave me.
Great job with this one man.
5/5, 9/10

Krussi responds:

Thanks for the kind words :D Glad you liked it ^^
I just love having piano parts in my songs, I have tried different instrument like some acustic guitars and pan flutes and so on, but the just cant replace the pure sound pianos do :P I was thinking of making it longer, but since it's going to be a collab I stoped so it whouldn't be to long.
Thanks for the review, the vote, the "9" and you support :D

Cheers

Awesome TUNE

Damn this is an amazing tune man.Haha, I'm pretty jealous. The tune seems to have some hints to a Dj-Nate song, but it is completely original, so i still give you major props.

With an awesome drumline with some snares/hats/claps, this could be a freeking awesome song.

I hope you make a longer version so I can listen to it everyday of my life. haha.
Good work man.

LK412 responds:

Wow thx for the review man!

[Once Again - KennyT67]

I'm not going to lie...

I was not expecting a ton from the intro bass.

but you amazed me. The bass is great along with the tune.

This tune is perfect and very creative throughout the whole song.

Props man, this is a great first song. haha way better than mine.

~{425}~

KennyT67 responds:

Thanks for listening, yea i was just messing around all are stock fl sounds so i might master it using vanguard later.

[Hyper Speed - KennyT67]

this is cool

Just browsing through some of the new songs on the portal and found this.

It caught my ear with the cool main synth that you used. Got me hooked the whole way through.

This is a pretty creative tune.

Great job with the drums, i can tell you worked hard on this one.

Good Job man,
5/5, 8/10.

~{425}~

make sure to check out some of my songs, I'll take a looks at yours.

KennyT67 responds:

Thanks for listening, glad it was enjoyable. This one is a work in progress with psy-nigma so be sure to check back to see if things have changed :)

[Assertive Mood _ RR]

Crazy good.

This song is awesome.

The intro was awesome, and opened the song perfectly.

Cool tune when you chop it up at 0:40 and throughout.

Drums are great, and fit well with the song.

1:35 to the end = my favorite part. All the new arpeggio's and pads you used are cool.

Great Job with this song man.
5/5, 10/10, and DL'd

~{425}~

RenoakRhythm responds:

425... what does that stand for.... PM me about that.

Ya, i love the arpeggios..... here's a little secret, i had the low arpeggios in the right speaker and the high in the left speakers. It creates more head room for sounds and makes sounds clearer.

Thanks a lot for the review.

[FF7 - Still More Metal]

The tune is great on the guitar. Everything flows well together.

the choir at 1:10 is crazy good.

Drums fit perfectly in to the song, and sounded professional.
overall great job.
5/5, 9/10.
