[Castle Theme (Super Mario)]

This... is pretty damn epic;

My friend was across the room playing CoD, about 10 seconds into the song he said "that sounded like mario", my reply, "yea it is <insert laugh here>", i restarted it and he says to me "yea it sounds like when you're in the castle", i stated, "yea it's the castle theme" :D

sounds frickin amazing.

keep this up:)

ArtificialFear responds:

Haha! Thanks, man! \m/

[Healing Touch]

Well done my friend,

My two favorite instruments to work with are strings and the good ol' piano. I love this song, the melody is very catchy and kept my attention through the entire piece.

The song also had somewhat of a second meaning to me. Recently a relationship with a women very close to me came to an end, this song basically describes how I feel if my feelings were music, if you can understand that.

Simply amazing, from a newgrounds artist point-of-view, and a personal point-of-view. You have my download. Keep up the work George, you're an incredible artist.

Setu-Firestorm responds:

Thank you. I too am a fan of piano/string duets.

Thank you for the feedback.

[Dreamscape - To The Stars]

Nice song, but couldn't help but notice...

from 3:00, to 3:10, you're using the same "clapping crowd" filler that im using in the song I'm working on >.> ....

i still have alot of work to do on it yet, but it's from 0:11 to 0:20 :P

That's what we get for using presets that come with Nexus =P

[Titans [Dance]]

not toooo bad

needs a bit of work yet, cool melody and whatnot for sure, just a bit bland tho. add some transitions, effects, etc. oh, and a bassier kick :)

if you would want to listen to my latest song, "Dance Remix" ..it'd be a good example of what im getting at.

good start :) keep it up, and keep me informed, i wanna see how this guy turns out :)

DjRubix responds:

I will keep you informed i will add those for sure, this is just mainly the demo melody to see what others think! Thanks for the review!

[-=In The Garbage Disposal=-]

lmao...

i couldn't stop laughing...

hahahahahhahaa

AxijeN responds:

Arrrgh. I'm venting my contempt for zero-bombers in this response.
>:CCCCCCC

Hate.

[PSB - Prod. Affectionate]

Neat...

Cool melody, as I was getting into it and starting tapping my foot to it, i heard a huuugggely obvious flat note, then another, and another.

Gotta get those right bud! Cool song just gotta put it in tune!

PedroPSBro responds:

Thanks the comment : ]
I made it kinda fast. I heard some issues but I was/am too lazy for see details. Maybe I fix these flat notes later ...
Check the original music on youtube ( carinhoso pixinguinha ). It is usual played only with guitar, but that way it became just more beautiful ; )

[[Ultraviolet-JaV]]

Where's the bass?

The beginning is somewhat okay... but at :19 it sounds like you turned off the bass and cranked the treble.

sorry, not for me.

alexjav21 responds:

it was kinda hard for me to mix because i was either using my increased bass earphones, or my no bass lap top speakers :P

[Attain Wings]

Pretty Damn Good...

I like this song a lot, it's pretty relaxing and you do a great job setting that mood. I'm kinda new to FL Studio myself and listening to this you're doing a great job learning it. A bit of advice however, if you haven't gotten the Nexus plugin for FL you should definitely look into that (it's expensive probably just wanna torrent it). My last two songs I used only Nexus sounds for the melody if you want to check them out.

Otherwise amazing job, keep up the great work you have real talent!

FlyingLobster responds:

thx :D I'm currently looking for the nxus plugin but youre right its quite expensive... but maybe i'll find a way ;)

[-Korp- Dawn [BETA]]

Alright

I thought the effects in the song were very cool. But it got repetitive. The instrument that comes in at 14 seconds, then comes in again at 41 seconds got me somewhat agitated because that's all i could hear during the portions of the song that it was playing in.

The melody was very nice I liked it, maybe add more to it.

Overall pretty good, has a lot of potential, and again, the effects were astounding.

KorpzeAudio responds:

Yeah... I forgot to completely master this before I uploaded it, but that's why I marked it as beta. Hopefully I can work on it some time.
Thanks for the review though.

[Technotronic Generica Ver. 2]

Very cool,

I really like the song, the beat, melody, everything. Just needs to be about triple+ the length lol.

Great work, keep it up! :)

ForestLomn responds:

Yeah... its not finished yet, still in the works. But thanks for th review:)
