[Outside Domain v3]

i ama fan of cookies

the strings override the piano part a tad bit, but it becomes unoticable after a while. I do like the bass and the drums working together with the rest of the intro. The arpegiator kicks ass. I would have switched up the srums a bit from the beginning after they come back in after their little break. But i think i might have already reviewed this song in another version. This is an overall beautiful song and you should be proud of it. Good job

Khuskan responds:

'arpegiator'... i have no idea what that is. Do you mean arpeggios, or are you talking about somthing in a program i didnt use :|. and by srums you mean strings? i'm confused >.<

[Nothing Like Him]

No harm done in trying

At first i didnt think this was going anywhere. But the delayed crash really propelled this song into a while new level. I would have kept the ambience when you switched to the popping noises...i think they were clavis or something. I very much enjoyed the bass switch up right after that, sort of wish you extened that part longer. All of the overlaying synths parts worked very well together.Very simple, but good noe the less.

[Work with Magic]

you have been busy...

nice little intro. I would have maybe used something else than the sterotypical square sound. I did like the pitch bend down though. THe part after was very nice as i was able to see the main melody unfold. The bass was decent i suppose, maybe needs a little more variation than the simple off beat you did. The drums are some of the best you have done in a whle. The little backround effect you put in their really made the song have some much needed diversity. This song would make a kick ass loop if you were able to link the part at the end with the second sequence in the beginning as opposed to the first. Overall, very well done

Whirlguy responds:

as i said, simple samples, but very addictive. tho its simple samples i felt i just HAD to show this to ng. thanks for the review

[Jazzy Improv. Session 1]

Good job

Im not quite so sure about the backround for this track, but the guitar playing was very nice. Its nice to see you using fuity loops' new features well, however, that loop get sooo annoying

[[Dud] Zelda-Piano Dark World]

That left hands seems like a bitch

But you did a good job with it. I was wondering how long you practiced on that song before submitting it. There were some minor mess ups on timing an what not, but overall, you did a very nice job. Id give you a 20 on effort if i could, considering you are on of the only people that actually plays their music

Dudidum responds:

Getting the left and the right hand toghether without a mistake was nearly impossible.
But after looping it over 2 hours I got it right as you can see ;)
It was really hard work without a music sheet so I had to put the song together on my own :D

thx for your review^^

[Never Lose Hope]

haha, hellplague thought you were a chick

No but this is a good song...good job caleb

[New Dominion(NDU)]

Im in the middle

alright...i saw what you were going for, but you sort of failed. the drums in the beginning lasted a little too long before throwing in some diversity. The bass was decent i guess, but it wasnt really enough to carry the song, the strings were a little odd, but not as quite as odd as the interlude part where everything breaks and goes back to the bass. I dunno. I guess it wasnt awful, i can tell you worked hard on it, but not quite there

MrIguana responds:

It took my 30 mins. Guess maybe I should of worked on it more, despite not getting paid or caring.

[ParagonX9 - Defection]

Very nice..

I love these style of songs, its pretty much perfect in every aspect. Except for that synth, in the melody, which is a little plain by itself, but when the fillers came in with it, it sort of transformed song. I wish i knew more about this genre of music so i could critique it more, but its like a different language, so icant really offer any oppinnions, except to keep on doing what youre doing and your improvoing a ton. I suppose i could try making something like this, but whatever. Good job!

[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.
