[something new?]

Not bad

Drum and Bass? Though the drums arent very varieted.
Interesting use of panning for that open high-hat, but watch the volume when using panning, cuz the effect is a little too strong now.
The bass line doesnt really seem to fit the strings, but then again that might have been your intention as everything is possible in this genre, lol.
Aw, the song stopped already :(

well i was trying to make something medieval yet high tech and industrial fused with ambient so here comes this piece...

[scouting ahead]

Nice actually

Yeah I guess I've got a few comments.
The sound of that .. guitar synth didnt really get my attention. Try making it more wet or something (low-volumed delay, reeverb?)
On the other hand I think that this track is very technically correct, and the built ups are nice. Also the dynamics are good. If you could júst pimp up some of the channels to make the overall sound catchier, cuz the arrangment is very awesome :)

dh2050 responds:

thks for the comment
and also ive been trying to get a better effect for the guitar .. but it seems that this was the closest to it as i can get.
anyway ill try out your suggestion on the guitar effects. thks (this is from a midi btw)

[the soft song (glass)]

Well

I think you could make much more of a song out of that theme melody! It sounds quite tempting, though the little variation in the beginning wasnt too nice if you ask me. Too bad the song hasnt been built out to much, is has some potential for becoming a nice electronic track or something. Oh yeah, why did you use rock drums?

[Acidic Icecap]

Hm

Hey I've played Trackmania too.
The loop is out of rithme at times, and also the snare intro was a little weird if you ask me.
I hear the drums are also just a .wav ;( as so are the other stuff you keep putting in the song.
Listening to this didn't give me the feeling that I was listening to one song, but rather to two or three. Try to stick to one theme a bit more.

Good luck!

DanDyer responds:

Hey, Thanks for the C+C, I know about the Rhythm and some of it is a little "different" =P and the thing about it being like 2 or 3 songs is like a trademark of mine, i'm sticking with that because it mixes the song up.
Thanks again ^-^

Sorry

Arent these music maker pre-made wavs? Did you do more than just arrange standard sounds? If yes, then it's a great song. If not, then it sux.
But thats only my opinion.
Try Fruity Loops (and I'm sorry if this piece has already been made with another program than Music Maker, cuz then its really sounding great and then you've done a good job at mastering the sounds etc.)
Just hope you used real creativity on this one, but I'm affraid you didnt? ;(

weemeee responds:

Hey Ralf ya indeed i made it with magix =[ im still f*cking around with fl if im out of it ill fix everything and submit better stuff ( need samples though) Grtz Weemeee

[Khuskan: Outside (Absolut Fin)]

Great

The melody already exists, but then again I can hear it's all your work. Great effort!! I didn't really expect that kind of drums though, the snare sounded like a rock one. Great vocals, how did you make that?!
It sounds pro and could easily be between those Fruity Loops showoff .flp's when you download the demo :P

[Khuskan - Elevator music 2007]

Something to get ur mind to

I would like to know how far this is your work. It's really impressive, that is: IF it isnt just a generated loop with some jazz-generators.
Did you master out all sounds, did you compose all yourself etc? Did you record the lead with a keyboard?
If this is all a yes, then I'm stunned and the world has yet another great musician ;) you

[Khuskan - Atomic]

Hehe

I'd love to hear this WITHOUT those vocals ;)
It sounds superb-chill
