[DJ5o9-Apocalypse Night-v3]

It was pretty cool.

Not bad, not bad. Dig the bass, and cool arrangement of the amen break. Nice vocal chorus there going along with the bass. Although, I find that there's no real "progression" in the song. It just doesn't to be really be like... "going somewhere", know what I mean? It's just kind of static, and just repeating the same lines and same patterns. =/

I mean, for what it is, it's pretty cool, but it needs to progress, and if you do that, you'll get to the next level in producing music =].

I noticed that there's no real mixing involved, and it just kind of peaks all over the place, especially when the bass comes in and goes away. Then I just hear the drums massively taking over the song, itself. Another one of the things that you need to get down.

As for the drums, they sound pretty nice. I mean, it is an amen break, and that break is awesome, but you gotta vary it up a bit sometimes. Best thing to do get to go out on the internet, and find yourself some unknown breaks and samples, to you. You'll build up a good pack of sounds that way, and you can probably make some original drums, once you get to learn some more.

Bass sounds pretty good, but it's your general, stationary reese bass. No real change. So another thing you have got to learn is how to modulate a bass, so you can get some pretty cool sounds out of it.

Just kind of the few stipulations that I have with this track, but, nonetheless, quite nice to listen to. A major improvement from V2, and I'm glad you pushed the bass/choral pattern up an octave. It felt kind of weird listening to V2 =/

A very nice job, but needs a lot more improvement.

(I can provide some links and some tips on the aforementioned things I have listed here, if you'd like. Nothing better than helping out a fellow producer.)

[Dub n Bass]

Ello, ello, ello! A gem among the few!!

Very nicely done my man. You ask for pointers, there are none that I could even being to give! This track was made like it was from the gods! Hahah! You did very well. Love that wubbage. Although, I think the snare should be just a tinge bit punchier so it can push through the many sounds you have working together.

The track could do with a few pads to give it some atmosphere, but those are just... nothing compare to what you have here already. It works on the culmination of sounds, percussion and effects alone. And that's saying a lot. An awesome job.

Sangen responds:

Thanks for the feedback! Your right about the snares, wish I could get the transitions better too.

Really appreciated.

[DJ5o9-Mayhem]

It's cool.

It's not too bad. Lots of bass, but it's drowning out the amen break :/ Bass is way loud, and the break is way soft. It's kind of square waving itself there.... peaks a lot.

It sounds awesome, but it's missing sub, and I'm sure you can make that bass a lot more grimey... and I think some more patterns could be dedicated to the bass though... You have a pretty good melody going there for it, and some modulations should be used to trick that shiet out.

Drum patterns make the song flow pretty well... just kind of turn the bass down, and put the volume up. Or use a compressor to balance it out.

I feel that there could have been a much better intro, and better build ups. You need something that can just.. punch your listener in the face. Sadly there are absolutely no drops (that I can identify) in this song :/ You need drops so you can give your song that kind of ambiance for build ups, for suspense, and then once you hit that build up, you go, "BAM MUTHAFCKER! HERE'S JOR BAZZ!!!"

Or something along those lines.... Lol. So much more could be done with it. But it's pretty good for what it is. Good Job.

Killa5o9 responds:

sweet, thanks, i will definately keep working on this, i just wanted to hury up and make a song with my pure custom bass :D

[13 tamboreenz (demo)]

Finally a gem among the few.

Very nice my good friend. I think some parts should be replaced with string hits rather than bass hits, and a lot more orchestral instruments would better suit this. I'd like to remix this when the full version comes out. I bet it'll be much better than this demo here. Very nice job.

~[IZK]

Drewsky13 responds:

Thanks very much man. Alot of people been telling me that there should be more strings so that's what I think I'm gonna do. Just gotta find some good strings LOL.

[DJ5o9-Power Rangers (DnB'd)]

I know how you feel about those zero-rapers.

But.. just don't care about them. It's better not than caring. I know they get to ya.. they get to me too.. but I know my skills, I know my efforts, and their zero-bombs aren't worth crap compared to those people that really do want to lend a helping hand and give you a shot.

And with that out of the way.. I must say, I loved Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers to the Max. The game was hella awesome. This remix was pretty good. Lots of synths. Although you could probably change those around just a tinge, and add some bass in place of those synths for the main melody. Those Saxo's are very nice. An awesome job in my opinion.

Killa5o9 responds:

But the thing about it was that one minute after i submitted my song, it had a score of 1.58!
If i want one of my songs in a flash movie, a 1.70 score isnt going to help, thats why i care.

But ANYWAYS, too many synth's? LOL theres only 4 synths and 2 soundfonts.
Yeah, so there were some crazy effects goin on there :D

Man thanks for reviewing, really appreciate it.

[Breeze[Dj-S]]

Love the ambience.

Quite calming in fact.. swells in the background give it an airy.. Cloud 9 feel. And those mutes sound pretty sweet. It just makes you want to chill.. relax.. lay down.. and clear you mind of your worries.. Great job. Love it.
And Btw.

Five'd for good measure. You deserve it.
4.32 / 5.00 (+ 0.36)

=3 Ty ^^

[Fl Core Loop Challenge![Dj-S]]

Sweet.

Came across this song while looking at a remix of Chaoz Fantasy. Very nice for FL Core. Great job. This should be in the Top 30. No complaints whatsoever. You've done quite well. Keep it real~

~[IZK]

Sacrafan responds:

I love to keep it real >=3
XD
Ty for the review!! <3

[D.N.A(Unmastered)]

Hello. [IZK] here.

I stumbled upon your page when coming across Nurren's post of When In Doubt V2, which I helped in revamping and fixing up the mixer overall.

Took a read of your front page news, and I thought I'd give some of your songs a listen. This one is pretty hot, man. Subs are pretty awesome. Once you develop your ears, you can pretty much hear the subs, even on the crappy speakers. Dig the little sound FX you had there. Definitely adds a creepy feel to the song.

Diggin' your use of Drill_NB. Awesome breakcore there lol. Piano fits in very, very well, adding a pretty smooth transition between ideas, and that shaker adds some nice rhythm to the song, as well as those closed hats. Definitely gives the song some speed. Pretty nice, man. Stay tuned for my latest song tomorrow. Keep doin' what you love. I hope you find your unique sound.

[DJ5o9-From The Heavens Above]

Very, very nice.

It has great progression, and all the instruments were well used. Very nice arpeggiation on that super saw. Awesome effects that make the song flow quite smoothly and the transitions were well done. Looks like to me that trance/dance is more your "shtick" than Drum and Bass.

I thought that the kick could be a bit better. Just a bit too much cutoff on that bad boy. The open hat is a bit too low in volume, and so is the clap. I know this hasn't been mixed very well, but it's pretty well done, nonetheless. Great job!
Keep it comin' and keep workin' at it. You're doing pretty well. :)

(If you'd like, I could fix up the mixer for ya so you can get the best quality for your instruments, synths, and sounds.)

~[IZK]

Killa5o9 responds:

Thanks, you didnt have to review, but i greatly appreciate it!
Yeah, im still not the mixing master yet, but getting better :)
(and yeah, you could mix up my song if u want! Just PM me)

[Beethoven : 7th sonata 2nd mvt]

Love classicals...

And I definitely love the emotion this song has... very well done my good man. I wouldn't mind giving this a listen a few times a day to calm my nerves down. Nice job.
