YES!

How many are you making? I'm surprised by this one, my goodness you seem to be spanning some strange new web of sub-genres with each addition to the megamix! I look forward to listening to this in sequence with the other four.

Great work, glad you're happy with it.

I am making 7 episodes in total =).
Thanks so much!

Awesome!

This is an ultra cool song. It's fun to listen to, sounds great, grabs attention, and makes you tap your foot no matter what you're doing!
Some of the transitions are somewhat cliche-- to start-- but you somehow manage to make them way more interesting. When I listen to this I'm like "Uhh... what the hell is he doing? Is this starting to get bad? ... oh! Cool, I like that."
So Lots of ups and downs, but big ups and small downs.
:D I don't know what yo give you, what with score inflation and stuff I have a terrible time assigning scores to these songs... so 10/10 yeah?

The office?

Hey this is great! Nice job. The bassline reminds me a lot of the office theme song. I like the whole dynamic of the song, how it doesn't go too far into the more intense parts and maintains a nice sort of relaxing undertone throughout.
My only criticism is that it seems a little incoherent at times.
Great stuff my man!

Michael425 responds:

haha, yeah, I kind of based the bassline off of the Office theme song.

I will work on making all the parts of my song fit together more coherently.

Thanks for the advice man. Glad you liked it.

Nicely Done

This sounds great, I love the intro.
I felt just a little lost going through the pads at 0:59; felt as though the song was kind of weak, but then that feeling totally resolved at 1:55. So I'd like to hear more of purposeful sound going through that middle part without doing away with that nice contrast you have going for you.
I could also be biasing myself towards some sort of dance track.
5/5

FlamingFirebolt responds:

Yeah i will probably will 'fix' the pads in the middle. But they did a pretty good job holding it anyways, so i couldn't be bothered to drastically change it. But i knew i would get this comment ( IM LOOKING AT YOU KARCO!). Anyhow, i'm seriously considering what the hell i should do with this song. Might think of vocals, but that might ruin the whole feeling etc. Music can be so hard :/.
Anyways, if you want to make 'some sort of dance track'. I would say, go for it! I haven't checked your page but you probably don't make dance ;p. I suggest the audio forum is a great place to ask around.

-firebolt-

I MUST hand it to you.

I was actually waiting for this to come out. I haven't anxiously anticipated anything coming out since maybe Half Life2.

Anyway, I like the song, the megamix is a good idea, that's for sure. This piece I have to say is a little lower on my favorite scale than the other two-- it's really cool, but I wish it had a bit more convincing kick. I guess it's like a samurai sword. It's designed with a very hard, high carbon steel on the cutting edge, but has a low carbon steel in it's core, that way the sword is very sharp but also has great strength. In this song, I get a great feeling of this cutting edge but it seems like there's not a whole lot to back it up.
I think I'd like it better if there was more/harder bass-- Oh shoot it was my speakers. I just switched to some external speakers (non-laptop speakers) and it sounds perfect now.
10/10
lol

Well, it was not so good, BUT

Here we go~
Repetition! TOOO much too much of the same thing going on at once.
You got a good little segment of a song going here, but it's... NOT ENOUGH
Imagine a section of "The David" cut out that was 1cm high, now stack a bunch of those on eachother and you don't get "The David" you get... a pile of stone.
Try again with more repetition, try to get this to work into something else maybe.
Good try man. Don't be frusterated or anything, you got a good 1/64 of a song here, and it's pretty good!

Nice

This is good! I don't see how it could have under three stars--
I like how your instrumentation works, it doesn't clash at all, and they definitely make the song more interesting instead of cluttering it up. I can actually hear all the parts at all times--pretty much.
So you put this together really nicely, there's just nothing really really super new I guess. Actually no, maybe that's not it. It is pretty new sounding, but-- AHah, I see.
Dude. If you made the drums more... dance like-- had them stick out a little more.
Yeah it's the drums. keeping this one down. If you worked a little harder on drums, made some of the leads stick out a little more, this would be an awesome song. It REALLY REALLY needs a more followable beat. This would be an awesome AWESOME song if that was there. Nice job.

GCanal responds:

thanks alot man.

This is sweet!

I really like this song, the combination of the ambient guitar style and the high octane synths flows really well-- you'd expect them to clash, or seem to divorced from one another but they go together surprisingly well.
The beats are good for most of the song, just that one part between like 30 sec and 1:00-- that's pretty good, but a little too repetitive. It seems like it should be going more toward a drum and bass style right there, but it kind of falls over into an accompanying part without a full, intense lead to follow (be it drums, bass, saw, whatever)
Really cool though, I see that you put a lot of work into this. It might seem like a nightmare to go back to it, but I think it'd be really cool if you could update this song sometime.

Sp1r1T responds:

Adding DnB to Dance? It'll be like, trancestep or something :P

I probably wont go back to it :P

HHahahahaha

I guess it's not the lyrics that make the voice!

Sooo weird. Cool though, I like it, it's AWESOME So cool. I've never heard anything like this before, so new+weird=Awesome!
So like
Good job! I can't recommend any improvements.

Dj-Rippa responds:

Thank you very much!
A top notch review Id say :D
glad ya liked it ;)

Kind of neat, but unoriginal in a way

This is pretty good, but the uh... variation is lacking here. It seems like you're getting used to how garage band loops work together, and that's cool, you've made a pretty good compilation here. The only thing is, these are a bunch of neat sounds kind of stapled together in a weird way.
This isn't great, but it definitely could have been a lot worse. I'd try mixing some of your own stuff in with the loops to make it more if an identifiable song. Too much GB not enough you.

MrGibins responds:

thnx for the comment, I'm working on some new stuff, i just figured I'd post it
Getting a usb cord for my guitar and a keyboard, should help me make some more original stuff

(some loser got front-paged with some magic garage band shit,) no work involved,)
