[Ring Around The Sun]

In all honesty,I don't see the kind of development a song should have. The beginning melody was clashing with the rest of the notes and rhythms,and there really wasnt much variation to go by. You sure did accomplish a minimalistic feel,which is the whole point of having summer cheer;not caring about much of anything,just being happy because you're free for once,devoid of all responsibility-BUT you did not accomplish the development of this cheer,to give it more excitement and more of a voice. These are things you can work on for your next song/track whathaveyou. Also,(although your music is your music and you think it's good enough more power to you) I would consider more time than Two days work with this kind of music specifically,because there is a lot more technical behind the scenes work with this that I didn't quite hear(Mastering and such). In all,I would consider you review this song over and see if you can change anything about it before the deadline for NAC'12 so that you might stand a better chance against the rest of the crowd.

[The Birth Of Chysalis]

From the very beginning the choir and the strings sounded very contemporary,and I was amazed. What followed was a very 007-esque progression,followed by a big start,and a serious tension with the strings. Holy crap,this is awesome. I can hear everything,and most things are in balance,except for the drums occasionally,which i can't hear. the synth/piano solo was very abstract,and the ensemble section that followed it was even creepier. Most everything about this song is spot on,except there really isn't a dynamic change. everything stays the same volume level. Overall,pretty awesome piece. A Favorite in my eyes.

This is a different kind of dubstep. I don't mean it in an informative way either(a good way). Anyways,you put a good amount of developing the song as it is,and I enjoy a beat like this. Great job on the key change too,I was just about to say something about variation and that just made it. One thing i didn't like too much was the Wubs during the second section. It felt...a bit out of tune. normally it is okay to have unrefined wubs,but it sounds like at that point it is dominating the song. thats just a personal irk though :P everything else is alright,except for the hi hat. Instead of it sounding like its closed,it sounds like it's loosely closed,and has that splashy effect. Overall,good job at a first attempt.

Thanks a lot! Well i think i made a mistake with hihats, my bad, im glad you liked it! Thanks again, your review is HIGHLY appreciated! :)

[Sun Down (Zx Dubstep)]

hm. I feel the Wubs were overdone a little bit. the drum set part was a bit repetitive,but it was a pretty nice accompanist to the song. the overall tone of the song kinda sounds dark and evil,which i like,but oddly it really didn't feature a breakdown session where all hell breaks loose and everyone and their mom is shitting bricks. everything else seemed to just mesh together(in a good way).

[~SW~ Dreamland Chronicles]

This is one hell of a chill beat(until 2:10)and it keeps itself together throughout the song. I did like the development that happened from the almost smooth jazz at the beginning to the imperial style transition,and then back.

One thing i kinda didn't like was the intensity of the snare in the middle of the song. it was alright for the tone change,but i didn't like it being SO fast,like mile-a-minute. that's the only thing i didn't like though,everything else is spot on.

Hey there!

"This is one hell of a chill beat"
At the risk of sounding egotistic, yes. Yes it is. And it was quite fun to make sound almost as if a real drummer were playing it.

The transition between the two different styles was an imperial pain in the arse. I am REALLY glad I managed to pull it off though - took an insane amount of effort, thought, and time to put together.

"One thing i kinda didn't like was the intensity of the snare in the middle of the song"
Understood and agreed, it is one of the weaker parts.

"everything else is spot on."
:D Thanks!

And thanks for the whole review!

[Re: Tales of the Abyss]

This is a really well played out theme,for just being the title screen,I don't think many people would listen to the entire version(it being a title screen and all) but you did capture that feel of an abyss.The only problem i have with this is that there couldve been a slight climax instead of just back to the piano. great job.

[Captain Niatcap]

Haha,I was very confused near the beginning,but then i caught on. I liked it mostly,and it was a wide variety of voices played out.The only thing that made me laugh though is the crab with the rocket launcher joke.
