[Jumpin Space_[Mastered]]

Crap dude

You've only been making music for 6 months you say?! crap, I've been making music for at least 2 years now and your stuff is easily superior. You've got talent dude. Make something of it for yourself or others.

its a nice housy vibe the whole way through, and I really like the effects that you have going on in the begginning. very nice. I really can't think of anything to comment or critique.

10 outta 10 and 5 outta 5

Ethalyn responds:

wow, your review really made my day^^ so glad you liked it, and i am going to make lots more;-) thanks to these kind reviews i got the confidence at least:D

[[Melophobia g-R]]

Melophobia, ehh?

Wow, I looked up the meaning of that word. Fear or hatred of music, I'm certain you know this already G, but informing the readers. Its really good, and lemme say, there are times where yes, a long song is nice, and there have been times I wish you would make longer songs, but here's what I have to say about this song:

The sheer quality of the energy, melody, and intracacy (spelling?) of the song MORE than make up for the length. There are some songs that upon hearing, you can tell there was a lot of effort, so this song earns you something-respect.

as you can see: a 10
and fyi: voted 5

g-r4ve responds:

Yea fear of music... I thot that was a pretty cool name :P If u were afriad of music this song would overwhelm u

[Spring in Space]

^u^

one of those songs you can melt right into, and thats what I love about songs like this. Found this via Hedgehog Launch, and wanted it instantly ^_^ thanks for putting this up. I am sure I will vegg out to this in the next couple of days ^_^

ID-N responds:

glad u enjoy this feelin that i have :)
thnx

[DKC2 - Victory Dance [Demo]]

This is really fun

you should be proud of the Demo alone. I like it all around, altho one reccomendation jumps out at me right away. The melody that starts up at :48 feels like its starting a little too early in the song. Give it some more time before you intro that part and play the :27-40 part again before flowing into the latter melody. But what you have here is pure gold in a DKC2 goodness candy wrapper.

please PM me when you put the final up (or any updates) and I will gladly review and vote. But fornow I am gonnas vote nothing less than a 5, 10 and I'm gonna wait on the download JUST so I can download the final!

UnrealReno responds:

I will PM you m8! If I feel liek working on it more ^^

Thanks for the comment <3

[Kr1z - Music to Motion [Mac8]]

5,10,&download

Kr1z responds:

Now thats nice to say :D thx!!

Ow and yeah, pm me when ur final work is on.

[The Bramble Scramble]

I just put up a bramble remix! haha

yours is much better . . . >_< nice ambient flow with some electronic anticipation underneath the serene waters of this song. You nailed the song, keep up the VG ReMixing. You might even wanna run this over and run it by the guys at OC. They'll either accept it or tell you how to improve it. But like I said. I think you nailed this. I'm downloading this. 5/10/and a download

brkzeld responds:

I might just do that.... thanks! and look for my song to appear on OC!

[Deep in the Soul]

Ambient?

slow progression, but thats not always a bad thing. Make a song out of this. lose the hihat at the end. The strings are really beautiful tho.

OneWhoListens responds:

Thanks for the suggestions, and of course for the review!

[Through the Plains]

very relaxing

It does sound like it would fit right in with Suikoden, or the map for FFVII. Cause for Lots of Love! Also wanna say it remnds me of an old anime I used to watch, but can't put my finger on it . . . Tenchi mebe?

anyways, there was only one part I had a beef with. At the :53 mark, there sounds like there is some dis-harmony in the instrument blending. Fix that and this piece is a 10. Still gonna vote 5 regardless the disharmony ^_' If you ever figure out and work out that problem and update this piece, lemme know

Cosmos8942 responds:

Ah, I know what you are talking about, that isn't so much disharmony as something that has to be in here. It allows for the song to have a touch of unperfectionistic value which any song needs. This allows it to sound good, but I will fix it nonetheless...hell, I am likely wrong anyhow.

Thanks for the review...

[DKC - Ice Cave]

Best ReMake EVER

This song follows the original to a T. The instrument choice, the tunage, its all the same. Its all soothing/relaxing/remeniscent of the good ol' ice levels and the added drum line is an enjoyable touch, but here is why I like your creation so much: It doesn't feel like the same song. There is something about your rendition that makes it feel sunny, happy, hopeful.

Immensely enjoyable. You should be proud of this. Really proud. The bass you brought in at :16 is hands down my favorite part through the entire song. I am gonna check out your other songs when I get the chance ^_'

This song is a 10 out of 10 and a 5 out of 5 as well as a must download for any donkey kong country fan

Thomas responds:

Thank you for such positive feedback.I really like the fact that you enjoyed this.

This was made before I discovered the time saving FPC plugin in FL Studio,too,so the drums were oddly placed in this song.

It's not until I listen to this song for the first time in a while that i notice that the snare for some reason completely drowns out the song.

Just because of your feedback,I may redo this song once more (3rd time) with all of my new discoveries.

Keep a watch for it.By the way,anything of mine dating 2008+ will probably be the more preferable things to listen to.

Thanks you,I am newly motivated.

[Experiment #3]

love those pianos!

The beginning starts off interesting enough. But the section between the intro and the piano kinda left me hanging . . . it didn't feel like any buildup for anticipation of what was approaching, but then once that piano came in, you had me hooked. Really, some excellent work here on the piano. The pianos bumped it up two rating points ^_' I think if you could work out that hang time, this would be a 5/5 and a 10/10. But for now, a 5/5 and a 9/10. and what the heck, those pianos are gonna be in my head all evening, best I download it ^_^

SkatingIsGenetic responds:

Yay, downloaded! :P

I might have to do something about it though.

If the beginning left you hanging like you said it did, I might have to add something in the intersection...but what...hmm...

Shoot, I'll figure it out!
