"Not bad"

submission: nothing remix

date: November 5, 2008

As a piece of music on its own, this really isn't that good.
The beat's okay, but nothing more than that. Orchestral hip-hop is incredibly overused, and to make a song in that genre that actually sounds good the song needs to be incredibly unique, which is certainly not the case here. The beat isn't terrible, it just isn't anything special, and thats vital in hiphop.
I did enjoy the choir voices and whatnot in the background though, but again its all been done before.

The vocals really arent anything special either. The sound of the voice itself is pretty unimpressive, and I couldn't understand the majority of the lyrics, so I can't really comment on those. Bad grammar is dope, yo.

I'm sure you'll respond to this bad score with some scandalous comment about my mother, but that doesn't change the fact that this is a mediocre song at best with lots of room for improvement.
Keep working at it.

Score: 10

This sounds quite good. That bass.... I'm getting all moist in my private areas just listening to it. How'd you make that, or where'd you get it from or whatever? Because, I most definitely must have it.

:D

"milk, eggs, waffles"

submission: Stadium Wave

Haha this is kickass! Its got the coolest, weirdest sound but still makes me want to dance :D

K so the goods:
Awesome melody. Its cool and ravey, and it kinda sounds oriental at the same time. Dunno if thats just me though. You've also got a sweet-ass bassline, it gives the song a really intense drive, and I'm realizing listening to this that a strong bassline like that has been why my songs have been lacking the drive I've been looking for, which is nice to know. All the percussion sounds in the background sound great also, they really give the song that ethnic sound its got. The breakdown at 1:30 is just awesome, and the high pitched melody that comes in at 2:25 kicks copious amounts of ass.

The bad:
Not enough pan flute

Excellent job overall, I'll definitely be using some of the ideas in this song for my next dance track. Im excited to hear more stuff like this from you :D

Score: 9

"nice"

submission: Cave Story ~Moonsong~

date: October 19, 2008

Nice job here, I really enjoyed it. There are some great synths being used here, and overall it has a really cool sound, and theres enough variety that it stays interesting to listen to. It's got alot of emotion tied into it as well, which is hard to accomplish in an electronic song. My only criticism really would be the pads you use maybe aren't as good as they could be, as they're pretty much simple 1 layer pads, and maybe try playing around with layering a few different ones to create a fuller sound. All around though, excellent job.
5/5

"wow"

submission: Believe Again (Original Mix)

date: October 16, 2008

This is amazingly good. I've listened to the majority of the mac entries, and this is the first one that's really made me think of flying. Its just such a pristine sound, all the synths sound really fantastic, especially the way they fade in and out, and you've got some great effects in there. Overall, the song is just incredibly atmospheric, as its got such a deep sound, and its incredibly entertaining to listen to.
I'm listening to this right now, and its the first song in a while that I've really just enjoyed listening to. Its a great song overall, should do real well in the contest.
5/10/dl/fav :D

"awesome"

submission: {-^MP^-} The Only Way Is Up!

date: October 7, 2008

excellent, excellent song. More than anything else, it's rediculously funky. I mean that is just a sweetass bassline, can't get better than that.
And god damn, is that guitar good! I mean, the whole song is just one bad ass solo, its stays creative and catchy throughout the entire song, and thats hard when you're pretty much solo'ing for 4 minutes. So yeah, give my compliments to Frank, that is just crazy good
Love the drums as well, they serve as a great background with enough fills to keep things interesting :D

incredible job all around, sounds great, keep it up

Score: 10

"wow"

submission: [L3] Believe (Full Preview)

date: September 19, 2008

This sounds awesome man. What really stands out is how sharp the song sounds, everything is very clear and really has a lot of power to it. The synths sound particular good, and the percussion is mastered perfectly. All around it sounds fucking awesome, send me a PM when you come out with the full version

Score: 10

"mmmm"

submission: Rig - 2 AM

date: September 4, 2008

very calm and atmospheric
Sounds great in the background while I'm doing homework, it makes math seem much more epic than it actually is
I really like around 6:55 when that bassy instrument comes in, really gives the song a powerful dark feel
Sounds fantastic all around :D

Score: 10

"haha"

submission: {-^MP^-} Mellow Sunrise

date: September 2, 2008

haha this piece is awesome! I really like how its put together, sounds really authentic classical, especially the beginning. I actually laughed while listening to it; it has that medieval faire kind of feel, but at the same time its really upbeat and happy, to a point where can help laughing at the cheesiness of it. I know way too little about this genre to criticize anything, but the song sounds fantastic, so well done :D
5/5
