[Ehh [DnB] [WIP]]

interesting, like the sounds

your sounds are "smoother" than a lot of dnb artists use, not so obnoxious. drum clips are superb. i will say that it seems like the project is caught in a rut as far as where it needs to go next; unfortunately this happened so many times to me in the past. As far as an intro though, this is really, really good. haven't heard a good intro to a song in a while, so this is refreshing. i'd say, for your "chorus" or whatever (second movement, more like), try throwing it up in the air, experimenting a little. throw people off their balance, ya know? there's a lot you can do with this piece right now, so go do it! this has awesome written all over it.

Alakazamm responds:

Thanks a lot man :D

That was actually a little inspiring. :P I'm glad you liked it and noticed the details I put into it. Yeah, I'll try experimenting and making it a little different.

Thanks for the review, I really appreciate it.

[mac and cheese]

I really don't see how this made it on the all-time top scoring, but its pretty funny lol. I'm gonna think of this song every time I make easy mac now lol

count me as vote #666, sign of the devil!

extremely good! that triplet cut-off bass reminds me of the bass i used in my song a hell of a lot, except it's like 20 times beefier. And the piano? Really nice. I enjoy the through-composed nature of the song, too; dnb by nature is WAY too damn strophic. Thank you for making this masterpiece! It's so awesome in every way. It's got energy AND it's beautiful, even though it has a somewhat "typical" chord progression -- but hey, how else are you supposed to capture listeners? you got me, for sure. you've inspired me to write some "chill" dnb now, thanks!

Thank you man for a great review. The reece is kinda nice, but still it's primitive and with noises.

[Clockwerks (Darkstep) - AndY J]

Pretty original, pretty dark

I like the originality you put into this song. The drums are more industrial than most of the dnb songs out here, which is a nice change. Plus, there was that little Latin-inspired part you threw together at the last half of the song, which added this crazy dark Spanish quality to it. Nice job! And the fact that it was totally original: Killer.

[Para - Smog Step Sanctuar]

Dude, tight!

This is the type of dubstep song I was looking for for inspiration man. The drums are tight, the bass is beautiful, the beat is catchy (something I'm seeing is really rare among dubstep songs), and it's not 5 years too long. Nuff said. Keep it up!

[xKore - unf]

Damn...

Wow...This might just be my new favorite DnB song out here lol. Quite you unique, and I really loved how crisp your drums were, not to mention how energetic they were. The organ? Ingenious melodious instrument. I give you props: This had me hooked from beginning to ending, which isn't easy to come by these days!

[Raikoh - MooHaHa (dubstep]

This is definitely interesting...

Haha I started typing WTF but then realized someone stole it from me already...dammit! But this song is somethin else. Definitely interesting beyond measure. Those are some crazy samples you use my friend; it makes me wanna go make some dub right now lol. And then you put ACCORDION in there? Damn...that's definitely different.

[HW - The Celts (non-album)]

Awesome

Wow, for hip-hop, this is totally different. Nice sounds. Everything blends together seamlessly; really good stuff!

haywirehaywire responds:

thanks a lot man

[.:In Your Soulv2:.]

Can I call it "peaceful" DnB?...

...If ever there was such a thing as "chill" DnB, it would be this stuff. This is really interesting, unique, not drawn off of the generic, etc. etc. The drum work is also really good. I think it fits really well with the quiet complement of the piano. It also has this bit of silence in it which I like; sometimes I feel that the silence is more powerful than the sound. People should make more stuff like this, not all that chaotic stuff lol. Really, you inspired me to try and write some chill stuff lol.

GronmonSE responds:

Thanks, man, glad I inspired you :D

I can't say this is an original concept though. Look up a guy named Nubbinownz, he's really good at chill DnB glitching. He's amazing.

[Scanning The Shadows (1 Note)]

holy god, that's complicated!

What the hell? I've used the event editing and arpeggiator before, but not nearly to that extent. So you did this all, technically, with one note? Wtf man...That's pretty insane. That takes some technical prowess, no doubt. For that, I give you a ten!
