[Super Metroid Theme (WIP)]

Just two things

the detuned bell is.. well.. horrible... beyond all reason it just kills it for me, shatters my nostalgia factor for the song it feels like you're warping it!

Second the lead seems to have too much chorus, maybe a gold saw with bending sound, or better yet pan pipe or a gritty pan flute!

Anyways the rest is very good! nice work!

T1LTED responds:

Thanks! I actually got rid of the bell a while ago but never uploaded the final version. I appreciate your review !

thanks!

[~ Midnight-Rave ~]

:D :D :D :D :D :)

Well hey there, decided to log in and review this one, tis really awesome, I love happy hardcore (bounc3s is my fav) but anywho, This song would def get a 10 if it had a low/bandpass maybe into a breakdwon and then the crazy kick after the build up, but its still a very good track, the gate is slightly loud, or the lead is too quiet? but this song is still very good, just throwing in some feedback. Anywho, keep up, i'd like to see more HH! :D

Catstuffer responds:

yea, this song is pretty old, I really didn't know ANYTHING about FL studio when I made this. I would never have known how to throw on automation effects when I made this.

Thanks for reviewing! I appreciate the feedback

[~ It Was a Nightmare v2 ~]

Oh ho ho!

I see what you did thar!
(You've made a cool track!)

Loved everything about it!

Well no.. actually.. it was too short...

Did you see what I did thar?!

Catstuffer responds:

Who did what now?

Thanks for reviewing!!

[~ Pirates of the Trance~ [CAT]]

:D :O and a bit of >:}D

:O I liked it! :D

But I spot to problems (just my opinion)
The Lead Synth used in 21-31 was a bit annoying the gate on it made me think there was something wrong with my internet, it's a bit sporadic and distracting, but maybe that's just me?

2, I think it could benifit from being 10 bpm faster or so. seemed a tad slow but I may just be used to the other POTC mixes NG. Anyways a truly awesome and creative track! :D

Catstuffer responds:

Thanks for your input djryo!

I appreciate your feedback.

[Outset Island Orchestrated]

:O then :D

Hell yeah! This is an awesome track!! This is what an Orchestrated Zelda song should sound like! It's not too noisy and hectic, the instrument choice is nice, everything is clear with a nice feel and rhythm, I only wish it looped :X.. but awesome anyways!

[LoZ| Walkin' Through Time]

Argh!!!

Everything about this is awesome! BUT it sounds WAY too synthesized, real guitars and drums would be awesome, and it sounds like the buffer rate is bad. (low) dunno maybe it's just me. (Sorry this isn't longer but I'm way too tired to go in depth) good none the less. :D

[Welcome to the Club MixPreview]

*bods head rhythmically*

I can honestly say this is an anthem. For SURE! I loaded this up seeing it on the top dance submissions, i had intended to just listen to a random song as I loaded up CoD:MW2 on my ps3 and listen to it. I chose yours, and I dropped my controller and had to write a review, so here it goes. The intro, in my opinion is the only things that needs work, a nice long build-up would be awesome, just using instrumentals (the happy hardcore-esque ones you're using) then have the vocals kick in maybe with a bad or lowpass to flow them easily then maybe slam the vocals and percussion track in hard, and then go into what you have already. This is just a suggestion, but I love what I have heard so far, keep it up.

Breakdown:

Instruments 5/5
Delivery 4/5
Style 5/5
Emotion 5/5
Technique 5/5
Originality/ 4.5/5

Overall 5/5

[Half-Life]

You arrogant JERK!

OH wait.. Nevermind.. you amazing.. muse! a Very nice song indeed, I love the lead synth, it's very epic but I'd have to say the BEST part is 2:40 to 3:00 however, the slow part is pretty snazzy.. I would write a breakdown review (instruments/delivery/technique) to the song but most things would get a 5, and I have to restart my PC.. it's not working.. the volume button is broken, OH NO!.. anyways.. great song. Oh, one complaint.. oh wait.. i don't have one!!

[I Am a Legend]

Twas, Awesome

It was very good, I enjoyed this track, everything was good.. for the most part.. I think that the male vocal would sound way better with an auto tune or a robotic feel to it, like the microsoft sam sound, and also the song could use more buildup and a better climax, thus making it longer, but everything else was pretty good, and also a high freq saw synth would be AWESOME!
