[Song of Storms Remix [mod15]]

Okay...

Pretty much what hyper said.

The song needs a lot of work.

You obviously think that this song is good (as suggested by your comment)
"Here's that epic remix of Song of Storms that I promised you guys"
Oh, and also, you can't expect people to pay you for this song ("Oh, and it's free, if you so choose. Or you can send some moolah my way, that would be highly appreciated.", in case you forgot)

Your general attitude towards the reviewers is appalling. Doesn't matter what your persona may be, it is highly influenced by the way you are in "RL"

Not a great song. Not bad. Not the best (by far). I think some of the reviews have been a bit harsh however. 2/5 3/10

DJSpire responds:

I don't think this song is good. Ever heard of a literary device called, "sarcasm?" I'm prolific with it. I'm a very facetious person on the internet. I don't expect people to pay me for THIS song, and I don't expect them to pay me for ANY song. It's just an option for people that enjoy my songs enough to provide me with a small amount of income.

And again, it's a persona. I can make it whatever I want, it has no correlation to myself in real life. I am a novelist, I create fake attitudes all the time. And I never once used, "RL," so don't quote that.

And it is most definitely a bad song, if you can't hear that, you need a check up of the ears. None of the reviews were particularly harsh, they could have simply been worded better.

Your best work so far!

The only part of the song I disapprove would be the intro bell tinkly thing. Sounded quite amateur. The musical side of it was good, but you picked the wrong synth. Also the jump in volume 2:16. Fix that up! ;D

Everything else was great!...Like, really great. Great composition and compelling synths for the melodies and harmonies. Good structure. I think you've out done yourself with the drums. They fit the mood of the song very nicely. I think the samples you've chosen also compliment the overall song, but I wouldn't necessarily classify this as "techno" (mainly because of the way the drums sound). The ending (I thought) was pretty cool. I liked how it slowed down and gained momentum built up to a brilliant captivating cresendo! It really gave this song the finale it needed.

Your mix needs a bit of work...then master it.

All that aside, I'd say this is your best yet! Very musically talented! 9/10 5/5

Good job mate, keep it up :DDD

decoyultimatum responds:

thank you very much :)

to be honest i wasent very sure when i put it in techno

my style for fast songs tends to be a mix between techno trance and dnb which is kinda hard for me to place but its generally closer to trance so i usually just put it there

ps i know what mastering is but what exactly is mixing?? im not to sure what the term refers to lol sorry

Good track

Does get a bit repetitive after a while. Try bringing in some of the intro into the chorus to break it up a bit.

Good job man! 9/10 | 5/5

icecoldfatties responds:

No doubt. Check out my newer submissions :) Thanks for the listen!

[Electrobop (Danceish Track)]

FIVED!

WOW! Just...WOW!

This is so creative! You've so many things going on at ~1:20 and it sounds soooo good! Nice dance track man! OH, and nice snare too :) hahaha, used to be my favourite in the VEC03 pack.

A couple of things:
Drop the chorus and see how it sounds, may or may not work.
Add a distorted bassline
Add an electro bass

Those are things this song could benefit from, but all aside, this is amazing!

Your best yet ScionForge :D 9/10 5/5 Keep it up broski. :)

ScionForge responds:

Oh man. That light tingy thing during the into was just a last second decision because i didnt think anyone whould just want hear the drum beat... even though i liked ahaha :)

Oh yeah? ill distort the sub-bass and show you, tell me if you like it :)

Electro bass? like, off beat bass? show me plzzz

Lol broski [hi5!]

This song is great! You really capture the 'shuffly' nature of dubstep (in all your dubstep songs), and I think that's brilliant. You've got the beat and flow pretty much spot on. But you need to create some suspense before the drop...There isn't much of a lead up the chorus. Try making a pausing between your intro and the chorus to add some suspense to make the chorus 'come in' HARD!

I will complain about your snare too. :P It's too 'white noisy-ish'. I nice punchy snare boosted at ~200Hz make the best ones. But that's just personal preference :D

Apart from the snare and the 'drop', I LOVED THIS! Seeing shades of Datsik in here! Sounds good man!!!

A great song again mate! Love the direction you're heading in! 9/10 5/5 :DDD

Solkrieg responds:

To be honest, I mostly built the song to practice on my dubstep. (The actual climax)

And I will have to research more on snares. ;)

Sounding alright at the moment. The sound at 0:57 is particularly good.

I think for the chorus you could add a few more sounds (incidentals and wobble variations) to make it sound more interesting. The mix needs some work (obviously), hope you get around to it soon :D

The melody you've got is great, but I'm not too keen on the added rain/thunder sound towards the end...then again, it's up to you whether to leave it in or not.

On a personal note, I would like to see some wobble variations and random sounds to give it character. The wobble patterns you have are great, just try mixing it up a little bit :)

5/5 8/10 Keep it up man!

Reali-tGlitch responds:

I'll see what comes up. I have a very touch time incorporating the random sounds. Especially in a darker song like this.
