[DJ Spyroof - Reach For The Moon]

Verey gooud!

The sliding between the notes are really cool. I love the 2000s feel too!

DJSpyroof responds:

Thank you!

[Literally the only piece of music I've ever made]

It's meh. A bit repetetive and some notes don't really fit together.

Philo2020 responds:

The repetitiveness is because this was just meant to be a test on how the DAW worked, but I thought it sounded good and I still had the file so I put on NG.

[World]

The sounds and melody give this a dark atmosphere. The sounds and drums are very nice. Very good song!

Slaureado responds:

Thank you so much, I will try to improve my beatmaking skills and make more good songs)

[Älvjakt]

Bättre än allt som sänds på radion :D Melodin är också fin.

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Tack så mycket! Which for those on NG who don't speak Swedish and for some reason couldn't figure it out, means, "thanks so much!" :D

[Amelie (Cover)]

It's a very good movie, it was very different from what I expected. And the music is beautiful too, well done.

Jabicho responds:

Thank you very much for listening! :D

[Thin Ice Remix]

This remix is awesome, so come with me on an adventure reviewing this!
The beginning is one of the best parts, simply super smooth transitions and good sounds, it flows into my ears smoother than butter. Just one little thing though.. the sweep (or reverse sweep?) sound which can be heard throughout the song (0:26 and 0:56 for example) starts a little bit abruptly, which is a little bit annoying..
Moving on to 0:56 the drums really kick in, they are perfect, excellent, amazing.
1:22 progresses to the next part of the song, which is then the beginning of the song ends (for me). The sound is slightly like a harp, which I don't think fits in very well, it slightly ruins the next minute or so, and it's too quiet compared to the earlier seconds.
The pad sound at 1:37 does improve it a bit but I'm not digging it as much as the beginning.
1:49 brings back the sawtooth wave back (if that's the wave type), which further makes up for the harp-like sound, and the harp sound is louder and easier to hear, this is where I start to enjoy the song more. The only downside here is that this is one of the two parts with the least dynamic range, but I don't really hear the loss of it, maybe because there are many sounds playing.
Moving on! 2:58 moves the whole song up! This is very nice and a good way to make it less repetetive.
Now, the transition at 3:52 is flawless, so smooth and exquisite.
The last 28 seconds are as good as the beginning, smoother than melted butter.
Last 10 seconds we hear the outro starting, simply beatiful. The way it returns to the piano at the end is simply dazzling, it makes me want to listen to it again!

So now we are reaching an end to this adventure..
This song gave me a special feeling I can not describe at the beginning and the end which extremely few songs do. The harp-like sound could use tweaking, but overall fit in well later into the song.

This is the longest review I've ever written, took nearly an hour! But it was worth it! That's how good this remix is!
Okay then.. Clicking submit in: 3, 2, 1..

P.S. The ending could have had a pause to let the sounds fully end, because it was a bit abrupt.
=-)

octopus58 responds:

Sorry I did not see this at all but thank you so much! Your very detailed review gave me a nice insight for what I can do for my future remixes, but most of all I'm very glad you liked this song. I appreciate all the kind words :)

[The night of nightamares]

Nice maraccas(?), I seldom hear those in music nowadays, but they are very nice to listen too. The sounds blend in well too.

greatdogfood responds:

Thank you so much its my first song tho. :D

[Mello]

I really like this! The melody kinda reminds me of old Nitrome games. Don't know what more to say.. But very good I think!

lantaren responds:

Thanks for the kind words! Feel free to check out my other music if you're into this.
