[Distortion Warm Up]

you and your warmups

I liked the opening riff a lot, that was really heavy and cool. Then you sort of went off on a tangent, but i guess thats fine....since its just warming up. My dad was very impressed

muppethunter responds:

Thats cool.
Yea I figured I might as well record some fast soloing practice rather than some slower stuff. I will be recording slower stuff soon though haha...I have Jeff's recorder for the whole week.

[The Joys Of Delay and Tapping]

I want my synth

Its no fair that you can have fun with delays and i cant....but good job anyways

muppethunter responds:

Haha Delay is the man. Someday I want to get a 7 string guitar and do a little cover of Dave's Party Piece from that Steve Vai DVD. That little song/solo is mad awesome.

[Weird Ideas]

You should probably give that back

Very nice, but since i know nothing about guitar, all i can say is well done

muppethunter responds:

Ryan, I will teach you guitar.

[Echo Song (take 1)]

it was a little bit off in a few parts

but the overall musical side of it was good. That is one kick ass effect you put on the guitar. Gregs little war drum beat was pretty weak....as in funny, not bad. GHood work on the chorus, cant wait til we expand it.

muppethunter responds:

Dude we need to fix the bug with recording your keyboard and we could post the sickest version of this song ever!

[wah wah jam]

It sounds good

Sort of slow to start, but you're right, it does definatly grow on you. I really need to be there for the next practice, but im going out of town on the next two weekends, however sunday afternoon is still an option. You guys didnt use the editer im guessing, the drums are sort of overbearing on some parts. The tapping attempt made me laugh, good job

muppethunter responds:

greg told me at one point he wanted me to do somet tapping so that he could do this double bass thing...he randomly gave me like a cue to start tapping so did haha. it kinda sounds pretty good though after listening to the recording over and over again. i dunno...

[WindScene~Ãñgelic Mĩx~]

Not a bad start

You had good ideas, but you used awful instruments, which took away from the song...alot. For one, the drums were to punchy and loud at some points. The one sinsynth pad you used as your bassline was too buzzy for the rest of the instruments. The bells and piano(which wasnt loud enough) and flute sounding synths were ok...i guess, but the drums really need to be improved. The plucked generator was used apropialty. If you want the sounds to be professional, use soundfonts found at hammersound.net. Other than that, it was a valliant effort. I also think you midi ripped, which angers me...

CniFixx responds:

Thank, your review is really apreciated, i'll follow your tips and show you the next song, i am working on something new

Its actually my first song, and i got lot of problems. I thank you a lot for show me them, i'll correct them if i can, if at each song that i do i can correct my problems, i'll be better faster.

For the drum i understand i'll make it less louder in the next song

Thanks a lot

[Rucklo - Second Thoughts]

Intresting

Nice intro. Very odd start to the piece i must say, not bad, just odd. THe pads that were flaging up and down were very cool, and you mixed up the drums a lot, which is good, so the beat doesnt get boring.There wasnt really a main melody throughout, which sort of added to the chaoticness. I liked how there were lots of movements but it all came back to the same part as in the beginning.

Rucklo responds:

Wow, thanx alot for a really good review! I totally reckognize all the parts u mentioned and understand what u mean. What I too miss is a "main melody"(but ofcourse chaos is fun sometimes :), wich probably will appear in form of a female voice in the nearest future! I thank u for your review man!

[Badass Strut]

Lets see here..

I dont know why this is a top 5....but ill review anyways... the bells were really annoying after about the thirs the time that you played the pattern over again. Youa re using fruity loops aren you? I know its tempting to just paste the patterns over and over again...but the difference between someone who is good, and someone who isn't is diversity and qaulity...(in my oppinnion) which you get neither of if you just repeat patterns over and over again on the playlist. The big bell wasnt the same pitchas the rest of the rest of the stuff. Meh...it could have been like 30 seconds shorter as well. The beginning was fine, for te most part. Dont take this badly
-Ryan

iheartmyteddybear responds:

You're right. This is the version I used only Fruity Loops on. I just wanted to see how the discerning listeners of NG would like the way it sounded before I worked on it more. As it is, however, I got impatient and have been working on the full version of the song since the day after I put this one up here. Thanks for the input.

[Adagio]

Very nice..

Keep doing what your doing

Khuskan responds:

*keeps doing it* :D

[Conflict]

Horray for you

If this is an original you are one of my new favorites. I know what it feels like to make an orignal piece of music and have people apreciate it, I wonder why midi rips are so popular

Khuskan responds:

Tis indeed the origional. It was never exported as midi and was made in Cubasis VST using an evolution midi keyboard, so its 'tenicaly' midi in the manner the notes are played. I garuntee, and i can back up, All the tracks I make are 100% my own work.
