"Hey, you made me happy :)"

submission: Aaron Opfer - Themenothol

I can't really provide much helpful criticism here, seeing as this is pretty perfect. Nice melodies..though it does remind me of song by Trancecore..
The beat weas classic and nothing was too complicated, so it was a good listen.

"I love the feel"

submission: Station of Depression

date: June 16, 2008

you were trying to get across. I imagine a subway station. A single passenger gets out. He looks around, knowing where he is, but not paying attention. He's too wrapped up in his thoughts to notice a few strange things around him. It feels like a dream.

It's very hard to hear the man talking in the background. I get the feeling it's kind of intentional, though. You did good with blending in the music after the voice.
But I don't think the bell you used was the best for this song..it sounds too out of tune :/ Although it's a bit too repetitive, it's a good piece of work. I especially like the end.

Simply smiles:)
Very lovely. The percussion was very supportive of the melody all the way, and I love the jazz guitar, except a new instrument introduced around the one minute mark didn't flow as well with the song because it was very short and not as mellow sounding as the rest.
This has got me in a better mood already :)

"Yes, I know. Zero bombers need to die."

submission: Mindless Thoughts

This is definitely interesting to listen to--you're very right. There's a bunch of different sounds and melodies to listen to, and thos spacey synths in the background wonderfully supported the guitar bit. Not only do I like it, but it's also got that 80s-90s feel to it without sounding ..cheesy? Ehh.
It was sort of awakening, yet relaxing at the same time. Overall, it's a good piece.

"A good rise."

submission: Morning - The Rise of the Sun

date: June 15, 2008

If I could use this in a flash, I definitely would! There are some great parts to this song that I just fell in love with. It's overall very beautiful, and I agree with Sinjim.
the pizzicato was great and sounded very real; I could see this in a carefree moment of flying, or ..rising, in any good motion picture.

"1.87?"

submission: Late Night Club

date: June 15, 2008

What the fuck. Better a 2.57, eh?

It's a pretty okay song, though the piano is a little too loud sometimes. The melody is good, and I like the nice beat to it. Other than that, I think it's pretty okay.

"5'd it to up the vote"

submission: Yang - Spirits Loop

date: June 15, 2008

It's great for what you were trying to achieve. Reminds me a little of Fort Minor, minus the oboe(?) in the back.
I agree with all 3 reviews below, thought sirtom definitely had something I agree strongly with. I certainly got the feel of the song, and it's great. The good thing is that it doesn't get tiring too quickly, which is a major plus on all loops.

submission: Apples OST

date: June 15, 2008

This has such a great, kiddish feeling to it. It lifted my spirits, which I didn't even know were a bit down.
Also, I think the kazoo sounds hilarious! I don't think I knew what it sounded like before this.
This is pretty impressive for the feel you were trying to achieve--and everything was well played, the quality and mixing was great, the list could go on..
Basically to say, I love this. Instant fave. :D

"Wonderful diversity :)"

submission: Well Take the Sky

date: June 15, 2008

There isn't too much, it's okay. Sometimes I do think the instruments could be used a little better, but it may have upset the balance you have right now. It does kind of sound Irishy-SteamWizard, I now officially announce it's validity(if that's a word) as a word.
The bass is the only thing that really sounds off compared to the rest of the instruments. Maybe a different bass..wood? This particular electric bass is too solid, not enough reverb.
Now the percussion. It's beyond awesome.
You song, overall, has a very good rhythm to it, a comfortable feel, and as you said, it's a pretty good listen.

"Huh."

submission: Bracksta - Falling Off

date: June 13, 2008

Whoa, it looks like you got bombed pretty badly. Was 1.84, now it's 2.34.
This isn't so bad, it's just not my taste. The beat was pretty good, but the darkish ambient sounds in the back didn't really suit most of the song.
I mostly liked the beginning, kind of like a plain hamburger until later you realize there's some veggies in it.
Everything was perfect in general; it's just it's not so catchy :\
