The Guitar Rules

This doesn't have that beautiful mood found in groove boat. The guitar is amazing, though. Got a haze in my head, gotta meditate some, can't write more.

[-API- Greenlight]

Approved

Lots of things happening here. An experimental square kind of beginning followed by some 3-step. Then that kickass synth kicks in that sounds like something Infected Mushroom would come up with, except DNB. Good drill beats, I can feel the tempo.

Thanks for the review, Milosz :)

[-API- The Virus [Preview]]

Pro

Got a Calyx touch to it with some feel from that ParagonX9 dude. The hi-hat is really good and the bassline has a pretty perfect glitch to it. My only piece of criticism as such would be that the deep bass drum is too wet.

You kick ass!

apimusic responds:

Thanks for the awesome review man. I put a flanger on the bass drum to make it sound more powerful... it sounds a little bit too weak without it. The ride just fits in well, that's why I chose it. It's clanginess is just... enjoyable and compliments the bass.

Thanks for the awesome review, Milosz.
You kick ass too.

[It's a Fine Day]

Nice and 8-bit!

I'm sure what Shawn had meant is the song ATB - It's a Fine Day, where the lyrics are "It is a fine day|People open windows|They leave their houses|Just for a short while" ;)

I like this song, in fact it did remind me of ATB's song, but only because I was thinking about the name while listening to your song. I like the bass used in the song. The melody is nice and scattered. At times this sounds really pro and at times it sounds like something from an old Atari game! In both cases, it sounds great.

Darkvampiire responds:

Yeah that was the idea of mixing new and old, I'm glad you liked thank you so much

AdmiralConquistador

This is such a typical harmony for you, it's great. This is like the peak of your musical personality and I consider it to be your best song so far, it totally smokes the previous version. Really good job man. My favorite part is the end, where everything just works together so well.

-Extracy-

AdmiralConquistador responds:

Man do I love the sound of that, the peak of my musical personality! And my best in your opinion? Your opinion weighs heavy, in my opinion :)

About smoking the previous version... couldn't be stated any better :)

[-API- Another Dimension]

Golf Balls

I love the sound of this. The whole bass smash and tons of percussion dealy. It's also loud and overall hyper, maybe a bit slower than most DNB.

Reminds me of the game Heli Attack 3 under www.miniclip.com/heliattack3.htm and I do not know why.

Doesn't have much melody or ambience to it, but it works without it really well. It does have a heavy ParagonX9 feel to it.

Good job man,

apimusic responds:

Thanks for the review man! I love your stuff. Why does my music remind you of that game? Haha. Whatever.

Thanks,

It Never Comes!

Great song, good quality, good melody, good bass. The hi-hat seems intrusive at times. I see potential in this for a lot of harmonic development, but it never comes! Couldn't you just shift the bass down 4 semitones and then up 2? Maybe add some pads? Play around with the melody? It seems like the whole song is a great build-up to something HUGE!

I would be more than willing to collab with you on this tune!

-Extracy-

Always-Dark responds:

Im glad you liked the tune. really i made this out of frustration because another song i was working on didn't come out like i wanted it.
I do feel like i could've added some pads, gate a few things, add more leads and use some more fx sounds but i just didn't. I feel bad now.

Hey, i'd be happy to let you collab with me on this song. I would enjoy seeying how someone else would take it from here.

[Temporal Vortex (4min42sec)]

Rhythm Has No Point...

It's rather hard to make out the time changes. I love that synth at the end!!!!

-Extracy-

AdmiralConquistador responds:

Oh man, I'm glad you like it, I can't wait to use the mutar in a song myself, haha it sounds soooo good! You need to finish aceline too, it needs to be heard, it's that good.

[Ocean Memories]

Like A Love Story

Some parts of the song really reminded me of a revolutionary or love scene in a movie. Something where you're meant to not as much cry as be inspired. A little more reverb would have helped. And not using FRUITY KICK! Hahahaa. Try playing around with some of the chords to make it more of a "crying". But enough criticism; it was mellow and easy to listen to. Well done.

zeeber85 responds:

Thanks for the review! I don't think i used the defaults on this one...but i might have, would have to check. If i did, oops! And its intended to inspire (and maybe produce a tear haha) and you could probably tell where the inspiration came. but anyways thanks for a review!
