Fuck Yah Muthafuckas

How could someone not 5 this. This is pure and good heavy metal at its best on NG. EZDrummer sounds great up against the crushing guitar sound. The bass is well noted and gives it an extra dynamic. Some great riffs going on in there. I like the melodic aspect of it. Really nice sound.

Metal ftw I say! Thanks ya brotha from another motha! \m/

Experimental-ish

Well I have to say this was some cool experimenting. Really gives off sort of happy feeling.

The beginning melody was really cool. Sort of 8-bit NES like. The percussion was a bit irritating though. Too much panning hurt my ears, and made it a bit skewered. Tone down the panning a bit and I think it would be a little more pleasant.

The piano part reminded me of Nine Inch Nails a bit. Cool little off-chords in their. I also liked the little effects going on throughout the song. Sounds like someone is brushing their teeth.

One of the biggest problems with this song is it doesn't have enough form. Don't get me wrong, its cool to experiment like this, but seems like it should have a bit more backbones behind it.

Overall good work. Like T7 said, you will be making amazing stuff in time. You have good potential.

triangleshower responds:

thanx a lot!
the sound in the beginning is actually breathing, with some effect or another applied to it. what's really cool is that the way the final sound sounds like the beginning is entirely coincidental!

Hmmm

I'm a bit surprised at this. It wasn't half bad :)

Starts off nice simple melody with some delay. Some pads come in, sort of string like quality to it. Starts to get a nice build up.

Then the drums come in. The percussion was really nice. Definitely has the Downtempo feel to it. Almost like Ulrich Schnauss or something of that stature. Some good slicing of the beat too.

I wouldn't really have called it DnB elements in it, but something close to that. Like I said, above this fits the Downtempo genre very well.

I don't have much advice fore you at the moment. Just keep experimenting and playing around with different styles.

ClearRain responds:

Thanks dude. I was really happy on how the percussion came. It took a while to master the drums down. Thanks again. Im gald you enjoyed it.

Great

Well first I'd like to apologize for taking so long to review this. I needed to find the time you know?

Definitely worth a review and 5. Absolutely wonderful atmosphere you pull off with this tune. Simple guitar part fits wonderfully.

Amazing background pads and atmosphere effects in there. It practically makes the song. Bass sounds swell and bassy.

Is that you singing with a lot of reverb on it, or just a choir-like patch? Sounds like some cool reverse effects on those pads as well.

The drums sound very good in this. Some really good diverse patterns and samples in there. My only real problem with them are that the samples sound a bit plain. But I suppose it fits well with this kind of song.

Another small problem I had with this song is some peaking in one of the pads really got to my ears at times.

Overall another amazing brainchild of the wonderful pitbulljones.(lolwutfux)

pitbulljones responds:

Thanks for the review sinerider!

As you probably know by now i always try to convey an atmosphere in my tunes something that i really focus on. Theres two pads from crystal again, lots of morphing to find the right sounds, the rest are guitars, 3 in total.

Yes that is me singing on the track with a lot of reverb, i tried to get some lyrics over the track but i couldn't kep in tune so i just 'ahhhh'd' over the track XD. That reversed effect is a guitar monsiour.

The drums were from FL, and i applied the glitch plugin again, taking time to keep some semblance of the original beat whilst adding some shuffler and retrigger to get the repeating beats and variations as well.

The snare i think could have used a bit of reverb or bit crushing in hindsight, but s you said it fits well for the tune.

Now i haven't got headphones so i can't pick up the peak your on about but i assume it's the droning synth that goes through the frequencies as it pans left to right.

well i'm glad you enjoyed this track, it may be my last for a while as i will be entering full time employment soon so enjoy it while it lasts hehe.

thanks again

let me know when you have anything up and i'll gladly review.

Thats my Salad :D

Hmm this reminds me a lit of Amon Tobin or something. Its really moody sort of stealthy piece. I could see this in 2 games, splinter cell or like Metroid.

Starts off right nice. Simple little drumbeat. Little effects in the background sound perfect. I like the little synth going on there too.

The beat starts to breakout a bit. Speeds up and some more instruments come in. I love that broken up, almost guitar-like sound.

The next part really reminded me of Boards of Canada. That pad sounds really cool along with the slow drumbeat.

You really outdid yourself this time man. Keep up the awesome work :D

MackerelSalad responds:

I set high standards, so outdoing myself was in place here.
Thanks man, I'll be woking a lot on new shit next week starting wednesday.
Thanks!

Harharhar

Yo this got some heavy rap beetz and some flowin' rhrymaz
..Uh yeah this was pretty heavy. Its got a nice little guitar lead over it, with the chord underneath. The drums were good.

It took awhile for it to start to progress. When the faster part came in and the solo went, the energy level rises a lot, which is a cool effect.

Overall great stuff dude. The album should kick ass if this is just the intro.

darkkloud responds:

thanks bro, i appreciate it alot. ill be in on yours to review some shit ina min.or tomarrow. who knows?

iighty

Well you sure outdone yourself in your drums in this song. I like the little intro synthline. Glitchy drums sound wonderful. Compliment the song.

Damn simple guitar part in their, I like it. Vocals remind me bit of mogwai or something. Couldn't tell what you were saying. Maybe you could reply with them?

gotta love the simple sound. Sometimes you just need a bit of simplicity to unwind and relax.

-SineRider

pitbulljones responds:

Yo sinerider, haha i have you with the drums this time nice one, thats glicth at its work that is, as im sure you're aware of.
Synths were done in cyrstal, a lot of messing about. Yep guitars simple, sometimes it's more effective, it's what you leave out that matters sometimes, not what you put in. Mogwai vocals wow, those are mancunian mumblings XD i say 'close your eyes, just leave me be'. the reverse reverb may be whats getting people with the vocals.

thnaks very much man, let me know when you have anything up and i'll review again.

Hhmmerrm

Shut up Navij... everyone knows I'm the king of Ambiance. Ok... to the review right.

Interesting little song you got here. Definitely high points of the originality factor. I see much diversity in the melodies and instrument choice. Interesting synth around the end. The strings were done well too.

Drums, well thats a lot of toms if you ask me. Sort of irritating too. Needs some more hi-hats or cymbals. Higher percussion you know. You don't want just low percussions in there.

Overall pretty well. Not exactly battle like song. But I could see somewhere in the Castle Crashers game.

-SineRider

no offense dude

No offense dude, but try something original next time.

<3 SineRider

Envy responds:

Lol none taken. I really didnt expect this to get the attention it has... I made it quite a while ago.
