[Do You LIke Turtles?]

Very interesting rhythm

It uses harsh instruments and isn't cookiecutter, and a lot of people don't like that, but I don't know why people rate a music down for not being a genre they like. Well, here's me against the useless zerobombers anyway.

You could add some more complexity to the percussion, though this is a real good start as is.

It would also be nice if it looped smoothly.

In some places you might want to turn down the bass melody just a touch so the high notes aren't fighting against it so much.

Hierophantasm responds:

Thanks for the helpful comments =)

[-To the skies-]

race around the world, again?

I still hear it in nearly everything you write. This one's a lot jazzier and avoids repeating it exactly but it's still trying to fight through. Which it does despite all the changes since it's the most consistent rhythm in it. Sorry man, but you've got to move farther away from your inspirational material.

Waterflame responds:

thanks, and i guess youre right. but its not that "its so much alike race around the world" its just that i love that style and lines in general. im fully aware that its not something brand new every time, but thats not the point, either. listen to dubstep, or punk pop for instance. its the same all over there too, even if the bands are diffrent! i just make what i like to listen to these days. at this point im not really trying to be the new big thing every time. it will change, ofcource. when i feel im done playing with it :]

[Odyssey [Gian]]

Holy cow.

I was browsing through the typical list of random new submitted stuff, full of 17-second ramblings things titled mispelled bits of anatomy, and clicked this on a lark. WOW. It's almost like nostalgia, but completely new...

Right, now, 4 votes in, you've got 5.000000/5.000000. Suffice to say: This stands out. Here's hoping this gets featured.

Gian responds:

Hey! Thanks a lot for the positive words. I'm glad you enjoyed it, after all, music is to feel it :D

[(CHS) Sonic: The Brave Live On]

I'd call this pretty original

It doesn't sound remotely like the song you're remixing... If you hadn't told me it was the Sonic 2 final boss I'd never have guessed; it captures a similar emotion but really isn't the same. Which isn't a bad thing.

ChaosDragon004 responds:

Yeah, when I do remix's I try to make it my own but mabye I went too far lol. Oh, its the regular boss, not the final. Thanks for taking the time to give me your feedback.

[Opposable Spoons]

Lots of variety for a loop

I admit, I just listened to this because of the title. When the piano started coming in, that's when I was sure I liked this. Give this one a long listen before you vote, people!

spoonybrad responds:

I have almost as much fun coming up with song names as I do composing! Thanks!

[Robotnik From Hell]

Instruments could use some work

Your excellent instruments have been very important in making orchestral tunes like this, but they're not always used to best effect. Here the violins sound "mushy", given an odd sound either by too much reverb or given a strange envelope, or perhaps both.

Bak-R responds:

Yes i know but when i do this song, i use to be compose music sinds 2 month.. Today after 1 years, i think personally that this song is not good. You should listen my last remix of sonic. you'll see the diference beetwen the tro song . ^^ but thanks for your comment, it help me the make new beautiful song ^^

[The Flying Squirrel]

Simple and cheerful

But it grows on you after a few loops.

Gravijar responds:

cheers

[Clickclock Wood - Fall]

Odd and not bad.

This one keeps to the beat better than the other clickwood one. This stuff reminds me of airtuna...

Assassin2 responds:

Judging by the name I take it that's a group of acapella like folk who mimic instruments, like Naturally 7. They're funny, and good. And yes this one I finished and took more than a second to make. Thanks for listening.

[<EagleGuard> Tyrian Remix]

Excellent melody and use of stereo surround

Very airy sounding.

That electric guitar instrument, though. When it changes quickly, it sounds so MIDI, like it's stuttering. If there's anything like a sample offset effect in your software(play sample from point X instead of from beginning) you could make it sound a whole lot smoother.

EagleGuard responds:

Hmm... I guess I could change something to make it sound smoother. I'll think about it. Thanks for the review :)
