[Cloudrace]

Amazing melodies, loved your alternative progression, and the tune is extremely relaxing. Love your mix, and your mastering is great. Props man, added to fav's! :D

Maxo responds:

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[Joy]

This song is so full of emotion, I totally loved that distorted saw in the middle of the song, the dragging sound of its portamento effect, the melodies, it's just so amazing. I don't know what else to say, it just does so much to you. The beat is really well placed, the 'arhythmical' placements of the percussion is perfect and the mix is super crisp!
And the vocals were absolutely beautiful.
Amazing job, love it! 5/5, you deserve every single one!

broove responds:

Glad you liked it so much. Thank you for dropping a comment.

[As I Was]

Great quality, loved the beat, the reverb and delay on the percussion was amazing. I really loved your effects, and the vocal samples were great.
The pads were really what created the whole atmosphere, you used them perfectly!
5/5 bro, you deserve it! And I'll add this one to my favourites! :D

Waidmann responds:

Thanks man.
Much appreciated!

[TC - Clueless[Tease]]

Sweet! Crispcrispcrispness!
Amazing percussion, and I love the ambience created by the subtle plucks.
I was gonna give it 4.5 stars, but then I noticed it loops perfectly! So I just gave it the full 5 and I added it to my fav's :D
5/5 bro, great work! :D

D-Chain responds:

thanks <3

[Atado A Ti -Mister London]

Me gusta! :D
Hey bro, I really like the build and structure of the song, the intro is strong and straight to the point.
The percussion is flawless, nice punchy kick, a crisp and powerful clap, and great use of hihats.
Your synths blended really well, I liked them.
I do recommend two things.
The first is that you might eq the vocals a bit more, I have the feeling that there are a bit much low-mid frequencies on them, so they don't really blend much with the music.
The second thing is that you could be a bit more structured and experimental with the vocals. I'm not talking about slicing or superduper effects or something :P
You could just make it much, much more interesting if you used some part in every chorus without vocals, that's more focused on, say a nice (best to be cheesy) synth lead melody. It makes it a lot more catchy! It's used a lot in popular dance and hands-up songs that use vocals. For example, Sound of my Dream by clubringer, or Welcome to the Club by Manian, or Stamp on the Ground by Italobrothers, there's much more of course! :D
Anyway, just some constructive criticism, I loved the whole thing, the mix and mastering was great, the only problem was that a full 3 and a half minutes of vocals makes the listener lose interest a bit. So a possibility could be for a chorus to be like [vocal part - lead synth part].
Great work man, loved it, 5/5!

SUB4RU responds:

Thanks Rainwave, these are all things I will definitely keep in mind for future tracks. I am going to go check out those songs you mentioned to see how it should be done :)

[Pump My Bass (Techno Remix)]

Sweet!
You've got some nice melodies here bro! I do have some advice, and that's that you could really work on the mix here. The bassdrum is fairly weak at some points, you could help that by EQing it and boosting the lower and higher frequencies a bit. I liked your 8-bit lead, it sounded nice and catchy!
You could also EQ that crash cymbal, and put some reverb on it, sometimes it sounds way too dry and it could blend in much more then it does now.
Then for the melodies, they're really catchy, but at some points you could've made it catchier, it seems a bit like you're placing the notes sort of 'randomly' on the scale. I know it's not randomly of course, rhythmically it's great, but sometimes the notes don't go along the lines of the chords, try using notes that are in the chords at the heavier accents, if you know what I mean.
For example, the notes you place on every beat will be the chord notes, and inbetween you could use others (and chord notes too of course). It's a bit of a shitty explanation, but I hope you understand :P
Anyway, I really like your instrumentation and structure, the pads are great, your use of percussion is nice, and your melodies, even if I criticised them, are damn catchy!
Great work man, keep it up!

TastyTeo responds:

Thanks, i am a starter though i am still learning, i will keep in mind your advice, i will get better and better as the time goes by!

[I Own The World]

Disagreeing with PapaSmooth, the beginning had me hooked. It's extremely crisp, your instrumentation is super, your mix is amazing and your mastering is great. You're really pumping out a lot of tracks here, is that all you? Ã-
Anyway, great melodies, amazing instrumentation, and I loved the powermetal-ish/rock theme in the breakdowns. Superb track, 5/5 and going to my favs!

msevaamore responds:

Yes it is all me :) It is for my dubstep Album "Zombification" Thank you so much! :)

[Annihilating Rhythm Mastered]

So punchy!
I loved the mix and the mastering bro, it's really crisp!
Your lead was really a screamer, it sounded sick!
The melodies are slightly cheesy, but I love your structure, and the melodies are still good! :D
Anyway, great work man, keep it up!
Goin to my favs! :D

DJ-Frosted responds:

Thanks XD this is the first mix where i've used true stereo mixing and its made a MASSIVE difference in quality :P

im not sure what you ment by cheesey... but thanks? XD

I honestly believe song structure is my weak point and it needs to be worked on A LOT also i think i need to work on my fills and breaks they seem really basic so you can expect to see that in a future release

[Banana Inc. ~Hands up rem]

Sweet!

Great build man, I love the use of filtering!
Your melodies are really nice, the progression is nice, vivid and uplifting, and your melodies are superduperhappy! :D
And props on the synths, they sound really great dude!
It's great to hear that you got some great melodies, that are well thought out, and not just some random notes from a scale, which I encounter here a lot :P
Anyway, I really love it, even more because of the extreme happiness! :D
5/5, going to my favs, for some good hands up! Keep it up man! :D

keosni391 responds:

Thanks :) but it's a remix so i didn't make the melody :P haha :D
