REally like the mood this sets. Quiet, and cotemplative. Ambient with few distinct sounds. I like it.

"aww!"

submission: House Man

What struck me the most about this song is its cuteness! ^^
The effects and synths were good and the beat was simple but effective.
It makes me feel all dancey!! A real nice house feel. *danses away* :"D

Ahh..I love FL Studio. It's like learning a new, refreshing language and you find out that it's easier to communicate through it than you thought.
Score is based on experimental ability. I wouldn't say this is too trance, just kind of unintense techno. You had a few good basslines and tiny melodies at some parts which I could really see hugely expanding into something entirely different and more intense. If you ever get a version in which you can save, then upload this piece and add to it. Of course, you won't be able to change what you've gotten already, but still, you could add to it. Only if yoy remember the tempo, that is! :O
The percussion sounds too clippy and pads kinda compensated for that, I guess..still, it sounded a little too empty at parts, which only complimented that repeating melody at some points.
Overall, it's not bad at all for a first at technoey-stuff. :P When i started FL, I went CRAZY! xD coolio track. come up with some new stuff and expand, and you'll also get the hang of FL faster.

I'm seeing you everywhere, man. i was looking up video game songs and there you were ^^
You're posting up stuff more often now :D YAY!

It's a pretty sweet track--it's not as cheesy as I imagined--most of your stuff has this badass feel to it, but this really puts me in the gaming mood! >:D It's that bassline that drives the whole song.
Kinda spacey, and techie.. not particularly catchy --except the bass--> those parts I usually remember most. It was refreshing, though, for the bass to let up every now and then. Also, I like the pauses put in between to relax the piece a little. For me, it felt cool, but a little uptight. It's just me, probably, but I felt some weird drama.
As for the ending, as usual, it was very satisfying..like you don't regret that it ended so fast and left that slight lingering. Oh and the beginning had a nice intro, especially, and the beat got it moving right away, with the driving bass.
Haha :D Now I having a little animated me in my head dancing around ^^ *danses away*

"Very chill."

Smooth and mellow, but uplifting. The pads and gentle synths work well with the bass, which is simple and perfect, not demanding much attention. The beat also is constant and stays out back, giving space to the ambient, wavey feel to the song. The part that didn't seem to fit, however, was once most of the synths faded out, left a low last synth and then just the beat itself. That really detracted from the overall feel the song at first. The plain beginning took a little long as well, but it was okay. It gave the melody a nice entrance. Nice reverse-cymbals, by the way. It echoed perfectly.
Kudos again on the accomplished mellowness. It gave a kind of thinking space to me, if that doesn't sound weird enough :P

"WEll shit."

submission: madness is gay

date: September 3, 2008

Regardless of the contest or anything, this is pretty crazy.
In a sort of organized way.. but I really, really like it. The guitar was like a controlled beast, and the drums were the second best part. But then there's the bass..
Shit, I like it all. This is so damn underrated..
This could work really well in a flash series that has lots of fights. Man if I had flash right now, I'd definitely use this. It's inspiring! Kudos on the madness it evokes!

What's that? It sounds so familiar it's getting on my nerves >.< Did I review your other demo?? argh
Anyway, it sounds really cute, it'd be interesting to hear it with lyrics.
It's not really my type of music, but I have nothing to complain about it. I think it was structured well. The song itself also sounds really familiar, I feel like such a noob.
Ehh, I really like the bass and your use of the synths. It was pretty energizing.

WHAT THE STUPID FREAKING HELL!!! ARGH!!!! I JUST WROTE THE BESTEST REVIEW EVER AND THE STUPID WINDOW CLOSED ON ME!!!! WTFFF!!!! >:C
Okay, enough with that. *mutters curse words under her breath* I'm going to try to repeat everything I said, but it won't sound as good as before >.<
I'd been saying that is piece is just awesome!

This truly is ambience with spirit.
What I especially love about this piece is its floaty feel. I like how the melody comes fading in, bring in a feeling of greatness. This is where, after a lifelong search, the very greatness is found. The characters are amazed, at the top of a mountain, gazing in awe.
It brought this epic, rising feeling of power. It was truly uplifting!
To me, only after listening a second time, I noticed that the drums came in a little early for a full effect. That may be what you were talking about, how everything hushed a little when they came in. But like I said, it was only after listening a second time that I noticed.

In absolute honesty, this really blew me over. This=underrated. Now it's in the 4s where it belongs >:D

"Hmm.."

submission: Circuits of Sorrow

date: July 30, 2008

It doesn't bring me to tears...it seems more like a dangerous kind of depression..it's mysterious. I like it!
Right from the very beginning, the bells and pizzicato lead you on suspensefully, but not too intense; just enough to keep you going, while the synths in the background relentlessly carry on. I imagine the sad young past of a character being displayed explicitly. I wish you luck in the MAC, you late contestant >:D

Cute as ever :D Very entertaining like the original!
Of course, with the bass being my favorite part, the different percussion was particularly uplifting ^^
