[-WV- Nightlife (NG Cut)]

awesome.

you got what you wanted, and you got what you deserved >: (

It's a good song.

MattBlair responds:

Hey -API-, glad to see you reviewing it. Thanks!

[Raidiant]

Nice job.

I like the samples you used, even though we've all used them before. But alas, everyone starts somewhere. The drums in the beginning caught my ear, that familiar boom cha boom-cha pattern is quite recognizable. I liked it. The Dieselboy samples fit in pretty well. You just need to create a definite melody and carry along that way. Random does not make DNB.

Nice start.

Para-Noid responds:

Wow, this is awesome you reviewed my song. Thanks alot. I might do DNB more often.

[X'Digital - Zone Of Party]

Good stuff.

I love how silly this sounds, the bassline is skippy and happy. I like the reverb dry/wet knob changing in one section of the song. Something that'd give this song a higher rating would be a more crisp and powerful kick drum. I like the melody and all, but the beat just can't hold all of those synths. Nice filterwork, it sounds good. Some parts overdrive and peak though, so try adjusting those levels a little bit more accurately next time you produce a track. Keep up the good work, you're certainly improving :)

Happy go lucky.

Draze responds:

Yo dude, thx for reviewing API. Yeah the eq is a bit screwed up, i only noticed when i played it on my big speakers (i mix with wireless 'headphones'). And i didn't use the wet knob at all :P it was a buzz fx, slightly more control than the wet knob - thought basically the same effect.

Happy Go Lucky \m/ (^_^) \m/

[Sublime]

Awesome work, Milosz!

I loved that distorted bass. The way the flute complimented it was really a pleasure for the ears. Those pads are fuckin' awesome :) They are really smooth. I like the hihats, as well. Awesome job on this, I might wanna do a remix or something, but probably not.

The mastering was excellent, you really have it down pat. Your bass was definitely good in this one. I hope you'll get your bass talent back. Because it's really good. Awesome track. :)

synteza responds:

I'm currently unable to respond to such flattery, so I'll slim this down to a simple thank you.

-Extracy-

P.S.: "Organic" rules - great job on that, dude.

[Zero Gravity -ac- (1m58s)]

Awesome remix!

This is truly one of your best works. I liked the new FX in the very beginning. The panning was also pretty neat :) The filtered beat fading in was also, pretty atmospheric. When the breakdown occured, I was blown away. The sort of richochet noise complimented the beat. The amen seemed a tad bit choppy though, it didn't quite flow that well. Other than that, great remix Brian! :)

AdmiralConquistador responds:

Thanks man! Yea like I was telling you I wanted to add fx here and there, but ended up only varying the panscape and adding a "zero gravity" feel to the beginning to emphasize the atmosphere of the song. Yea I know, I've yet to master the art of slicing a loop perfectly... but it came out decent enough, no? Thanks for the great review, oh drum n bass master!

[_Oro_ - Final Sustinence]

this song is sexy enough to

send me into cardiac arrest :O

VG FTW. Nice job oro, you din't even tell me 'bout this one :'O.

<3

Oro responds:

lole. I've got chainsaws faggot brigade 0'ing all of my stuff now. <3 <3 <3

[-WV- Transcend(Prog Edit)]

Nice one.

I like the beginning bassline. This has some very tiny overdrive errors (peaking, EQ could fix this pretty easy). I like the piano notes occasionally. A very unique piece, I like it a lot! :)

Nice new genre you are pioneering.

MattBlair responds:

I'll work on the EQ'ing. Im glad you liked it, one of the very few who did.

[Rucklo - The Audio Forum Rules]

Well said, Rucklo.

What an awesome piece. The instruments, scratches, effects... everything was well placed. The rules being said in the background was awesome too, I hope some people hear their subtlety. (Some people actually really do need to hear them). Well, I don't exactly know where to begin on this, so I'll just say that it was awesome and everyone big and small, young and old, wise and dumb should download this.

I bet people will love it.

<3URUCKLO:O

-API-

Rucklo responds:

Hey whoa! Thanx alot for the praise man! What did you say you thought this kind of style was? neurostep/neurofunk/glitch? (thats a copy/paste from msn :)

Anyway, I agree some ppl need to check the rules... the voic es was originally meant for another song, but ill guess its just one of those songs I´ll never finnish... :(

Thanx alot for the review man! Appreciate it alot!

[-WV- The Code Within (NG Mix)]

Awesome job on this dude!

I love the melodies and the kick was powerful and crisp. You're making some serious steps towards being a professional, keep it up!
:)

MattBlair responds:

Thanks for the review -API-. I'm glad its such a hit. Thanks a bunch, and I will keep it up!

Thanks!

[B0UNC3 - My frequency (Short)]

Awesome job, Martin

This track was really fucking good dude, you really did awesome with it. I love those thick pads in the beginning, it really set a nice atmosphere. I loved the vocals too.

You shoulda had led into the song with a different melody though maybe a light simple one. But who cares? This blows like 85% of the stuff on here out of the water.

I love the synths and drums they ruled.

Awesome job, B0UNC3!

-API-

B0UNC3 responds:

Thanks for the review! You could have told me about the melo on msn haha :D.Let's see if others like this aswell.
