[System Split - F-777]

Exactly what it needs to be.

I can't really say this song does anything new or creative, but for what it is it's perfect. I would point to this song as an excellent example of the genre. Definitely deserves its high rating on the site. -Ronin

[Generic Crappy Club Song]

Nice spoof

What I love about it is, even though it's so crappy and generic (yeah, I could see lots of the transitions and such coming too) it's still good. It's a well-done spoof.

EricFreeman responds:

lol, thanks. I also put in the generic kick snare kick snare drum beat in the beginning and the end for way too long because I always found that annoying in club songs.

[Oregon Trek]

Clever

See, this is genius. It's so atmospheric and mellow, then falls apart into chaos at the end. I love it! Thanks for sharing. -N

EricFreeman responds:

No, thank you for listening and not zero bombing like everyone else. :3

[Lithorph - Mastering Test]

Ack!

See, this is BRILLIANT. But far, far, far, too short. It seems just as I'm really getting into it, it just ends on me. -N

[Repentance [TSR]]

Strong composition, weak performance

I really like the song itself; it's well-written. My only complaint is that it would sound much better performed on piano. The lack of dynamics makes it sound flat and a bit lifeless.

Good job on the writing, though. Thanks for sharing it.

ShatterTheSky22 responds:

Well, it is a piano instrument, did you mean like an actual piano?
And I can agree with you to an extent, it's hard to bring life to a piece like this, but I think considering the capabilities of FL Keys, it's not too bad. Haha

Thank you for the score and review, and I'm glad you enjoyed the composition.

[Trippin' Back]

Deliciious!

Mmm, creamy chocolate with hints of cinnamon and ginger.

It's simple, but has enough going for it to carry itself without needing to be complex. I love it.

I think you're mixing it too heavily on the bass, though. I love bass, but prefer to crank it myself.

treyhaur responds:

Creamy chocolate with hints of cinnamon and ginger... So it sounds sweet as all hell? Lol, yeah not a real complex piece but I always felt it maybe a little to simple (though I am quite happy with some aspects of this track).

I have noticed many of my tracks getting comments about too much bass. The problem may be the speakers I'm monitoring with. I use a Logitech 2.1 with a very punchy subwoofer. And with this very punchy subwoofer, I can't resist shaking the holy living hell out of my walls. On my next project, I'll remind myself that I should dial down the bass so my listeners can crank the bass as they wish and not as I wish :)

Thanks for the review! Glad you enjoyed the track!

[The Carpathian Mountains RAC5]

Excellent!

It's got a beautiful, epic feel to it. If I close my eyes I can imagine myself soaring over those mountains. Thanks for sharing this, and good luck!

popraz responds:

Thank you very much ! I am happy you enjoyed the song.
