This has that odd sort of fusion you hear in a lot of final fantasy songs. This is pretty distinct though. :)

This is really nice. Kinda makes my mind wander...

^,,^

Haha, this is a fun song.

It's pretty repetitive and the low end isn't mixed well. The main synth is interesting, though.

This is pretty cool. The mixing is good, though it sounded a bit...live? That's an odd critique knowing this is done in a sequencer, haha. The melodies were nice, but they didn't catch me in that magical way. I haven't read through your huge description, but I liked the concepts the song presented. I dunno though, there's just something ultimately forgettable about the melodies themselves.

Thanks for reviewing mate!

"This is pretty cool. The mixing is good, though it sounded a bit...live? That's an odd critique knowing this is done in a sequencer, haha."

That's a good sign in my eyes because I spent ages trying to make it sound "live" :P.

I dunno about that. It might be because the song changes its mood so much so there's not as much consistency which means it might be more forgettable. Also I invented the melody for this song during writer's block so it might not be top-notch. I'm a bit more happy with the harmony and transitions rather than the actual melodies themselves, to be honest :P.

Thanks again for the feedback!

Magical!

This has some really great synths in it. My favorite part was the beginning with the reggae feel. :)

durn responds:

Thanks man. :) Glad to hear you think I captured the feeling.

Lol

I agree with your analysis of it. The bass is pretty weird, and the synths could really use something. Throw some blaring square wav arpeggios in there or sommat.

It's different, though, so that's a plus haha.

Nav responds:

Heh, I've given up on trying to figure out what this song needs. It needs a good dose of start the fuck over.

Hmmmm

It's not terrible, but it's too long for the content. Good background music, I suppose, but it's ultimately forgettable.

The mixing wasn't half bad though. It sounded full even though it was very simple, which is saying something.

Nav responds:

I'd say that's a pretty fair analysis. Thanks for the review.

Ehhh...

I really don't like it. It's kind of chirpy and tinny, and the mixing just hurts my ears. I really like a lot of your stuff, but you've put out a few in this sort of style and I just can't hop on board.

Hmm

It was just alright to me. There wasn't really much dubstep in there, and when there was it felt pretty weak because the bass didn't have enough of a low end.

Genre aside, the song felt unfinished and a bit hollow in places. It had a nice clean feeling in the beginning, but it became a little too empty later on and there was never much contrast to liven it up. You also repeated some things in a mechanical way that felt like it was just lengthening the song and not really adding to it.

Still, it wasn't terrible and the mixing and synths were nice.

SantaBro responds:

yeah the entire bassline is from an 8 second sample so I had to chop it up and mess with it all the way through and naturally some repetition happened there. Thanks for the feedback!
