[Aether]

well ill say it

There's nothing really from you I disliked, everything sounds professional, well processed drum sounds, nice transitions, although the drums were a bit off with the rhythm guitar, overlookable though, very nice all the way, excellent variation on the whole song, nver gets boring

10/5

Phishrcool42 responds:

Thank you yet again. Ya, I thought I might have noticed that, but I had done enough work on the song I was just ready to move on. I'll keep it in ind for the future, though.

[Right Hook to the Face]

another great one..

Good stuff here, can't wait for the next album, very original arrangement on this one, again excellent job on the clav, not an easy patch/instrument to pull off, hmm I would like to hear you on the Rhodes though, my only measly complaint--turn the volume up a bit, it does wonders to the energy coming out of it. I did and it was suddenly very pro. sounding. Loved the Funky Town bassline, pretty strong stuff too. Well done!

10/5

Phishrcool42 responds:

Good idea. This is one of my favorite songs solely for is fun riding bass. I'll try to keep up the good work!

[fight underwater]

loop?

Its a bit long for a loop seeing as how it repeats itself within the song, i liked the progression overall, reminds me of that song, "turn the beat around"? something like that, anyway, nice job, 8/10 its good for a short game loop, 4/5 for only 2 dimensions to the song

paavi0 responds:

yes its bit long but i think if it meant to repeat itself over and over again i think its a loop... enyway thanks for listening. and i hope you got my point.

[Cloud Kill Engage]

cool perc

The percussion I felt was done really nicely, the whole song really, only thing that keeps that last star for me is the cheesy sounds of FL, ...if thats what you used, the arrangements just fine though

9/5

[::Z::drink skills]

hey

can i use this in a game? its pretty epic stuff

Zajed responds:

of course =D

[NL - Save Point Loop]

yea its good

nice and short, but theres a lot of things going on, which is good,
not much melody to talk about, one problem is
a lot, LOT of white noise is being generated by i'm thinking the choir, if you stick around and listen closely, its a heavy amount
try and fix this and you've got a perfect track for short ambience
9/5 k

NavLoops responds:

Actually, the person who wanted me to make this told me to put in a "waterfall" sample that he sent me... aka white noise. So, that is artificially there. Sorry :(

Anyways, thanks for reviewing! I might fix that later, but I'm trying to keep the tracks I post here in their original form.

[Perpetua]

Paradox in time...

Well seeing as how IM still in 2007, ill write my very last 07 review

so lets break this song piece by piece

0:0 to 0:20
excellent guitar/guitar rhythm, very nicely done

0:20 to 1:00
excellent transition, nice fat sounds again, only thing is the seconds b4 the minute its a little akward to listen to, heres why
its out of tune with the initial melody

1:00 to end
probably my least favorite of the song, didnt need the break with the out of tune guitar, the end seems rushed, nothing as good as the beginning, sounds like some sounds just got thrown in

final thoughts:
excellent guitar playing, nice transition at :30, loved the fat sounds of the bass and synth, personally i live for scratch fills, original bassline: everything basically, couldave been without the weird guitar break, after the delayed bass, sounds rushed

i give it a 9/5 9 for some rushing and guitar break

overall : excellent job!

Phishrcool42 responds:

I completely agree with you, even on the negative points. Even though it was submitted last, this was actually the first song I made. It really began as just a test run, but eventually i got it up to a level that I thought was acceptable for NG. Not really my best though. Thanks.

[Aztec Aztec Aztec]

try something else..

there was some structure I think, it was a little elfmanish at parts, too much disharmony to make out anything enjoyable though, sorry but not quite, suggestions: i liked the insanity, but that only gets it so far, insane the whole song just kills the idea
some parts were good though which is why im going
6-3

[BFG23!]

should probably..

go pro if you already aren't, this is of pretty epic quality, the guitar, the drums, the bass, its pretty untouchable,

great job!

[Capture The Flag Theme]

right the volume

i think this is still a saveable track, (the whole thing is enjoyable), if you use sony sound forge or basically any sound editing software, you can EQ it and bring down the lower and or/ higher frequencys, and the overall volume of some parts

9-5
