[AF+T888 - Astral Dream]

Love that bass.

Great job to both of you. I'm not sure how much different this one is from the one tigger888 showed me last night, but the piano seems to sound alot better now. :P
Anyway, the song is pretty awesome.

I do think the ending was kind of weird. The kick stopped in an odd stop, mostly.
Also, at think at some point between 1:20-2:20 there shoulda been some drop or something, because although there is some variation, there is no real build or anything. It's terribly bad, but a drop, second build, and then outro would probably be a bit better than what you've got now. But hell, I don't know.

Anyway, this is still great. The production quality is awesome, too. Great job guys!

aliaspharow responds:

I see what you mean. This version is a simpler mix then my usual music. Even I am not to sure about it at this point. But odds are I'm going to completely redo the build at some point since the flp for this version has been corrupted... again...
My computer has been very uncooperative these days and odds are it will soon verge on unusability. So look forward to hearing allot less music by me in the comming weeks/months.

[Goodbye to Yesterday]

My favorite song from you guys!

Tbh, I adore this song. The singing may be a lot like other mainstream artists, but I like it nonetheless. (and, lol, I totally listen to all that stuff, anyway). Anyway, this is higher quality than most of the stuff I here that sounds like this, too. The producing was done very well.
So, yeah, great job guys. It would be awesome to hear some more songs in this kind of style in the future. Would be awesome.

Russ sold his acoustic :(

So it's more like goodbye to yesterday's awesome guitar songs

[The Wind Sentinel]

Shiiitttt

Definitely reminds me of something like Nubbinownz, SessileNomad, or similar. I'm really liking it, too.

I do want to say, that the first piano doesn't sound as high quality as I would have liked to have been. Also, at 4:10-4:30 or so, there are some odd notes. It seems to be done on purpose, but I'll point them out just in case. :P

But, yeah, this is pretty awesome. Great job.

RetromanOMG responds:

I know exactly what you're talking about with the piano. If NG will still allow it, I'm gonna cut that part out and reupload this song.

Thanks for the comment.

[Hatchets and Heartaches Pt.II]

It's been awhile. ;)

This is alright, and the idea is pretty cool, but it definitely sounds unfinished and a lot more mixing could be done.

The piano could use some more reverb or something to make it wider, at least during the intro. Some better panning of the piano could help with that, too, or just adding a subtle pad, whatever you'd want. It just needs something else there.

There's some real nice accompaniment to the piano after the song kicks in, but there's not much to the song after that.

Also, since I'm a bit nit-picky with basses, I will say the one you've got here is a bit harsh and could sound better. Maybe you were going for that, but I tend to use a lot of effects on my basses and I prefer them that way(I generally use two mixer channels, too, lol). This one just sounds "raw", I guess.

Finally, the beat stands out. That could be what you were going for, I dunno. It just bothers me a bit.

But, yeah, this is still pretty cool. :)

Cebster responds:

a six??? you might as well have spat in my face. I do say Good day sir. lol

[_/My Way\_ [SS vs DjAbbic]]

Yes'um

Damn good song here. You two did a great job. The song takes alot of different elements and puts them together very well. I do agree the ending could have been a bit better, I guess, but tbh, that's not a big problem. Tbh, I can't find anything that I don't like about this song, either, so congratz on a great collab. It's got me wishing I could produce House like this.
I need to get learning, lol.

ShootingStar responds:

Haha Thanks! And maybe we'll come back to this and change up the ending a bit.. who knows :)

[AF - The Portal (NG Mix)]

Damn nice, man.

Getting better every song. This thing is so quality and I love how much detail you put into every second of it. Also, I'll be looking forward to that album of yours. :) Pm me when you get it out.

aliaspharow responds:

Nuff said =D

[_/Stereo Love\_ [SS rmx]]

Agreeing with Mans0n

Mans0n seems to have pointed out the big problems with the song, as far as I can tell. the only thing I can really add is that at around 1:30, the sidechaining on the pluck is a bit annoying sounding, unless you did that on purpose. Dunno.

Otherwise, this song is really great, you did a fantastic job. :D

ShootingStar responds:

Haha, well yeah kinda lol But whatever :D Thanks for the review!
Glad you liked it!

[BAZ - A Piano Song @190.69bpm]

Not bad.

I like this. It has alot of character and the piano melodies are quite nice.
I know what you mean with piano synthesizers. I haven't made a song with pianos for quite some time because I've had such problems with getting them to sound decent. I think you've pulled it off quite well, though, so congratz.

The thing that bothers me with this song, which is also the reason I didn't give a 10, is the beat. The sounds don't mix well with the rest of the song or the other sounds in the beat. The kick is quiet, although it is subby, and the snare is louad and noisy. The hats work, sounded somewhat cheesy, if that makes sense.

Well, anyway, besides the beat, this song is quite nice. It was a very good concept. So, good job, and keep making music.

BAZmotherfucker responds:

Thank you, I'm glad you like the song.

As for the beat, that's always the thing I have to wrestle with the most. The drum synths I use are horrible at best, so I have to strategically run each sound through dozens of effects engines to come up with what you hear here. But I plan on making plenty of minor edits to this song as far as mixing, mastering, and so on.

[SN | Beautiful Arrhythmia | SN]

Well damn

This is insanely good. I love this style of DnB and you do it great. The glitch sections are perfect and it all fits so well. Great job!

SessileNomad responds:

thanks

[_/Brazil (2nd edit)\_ [SS Rmx]]

You're awesome

And this song is great. Sounds alot like deadmau5, so good job on that.
Good Job!

ShootingStar responds:

Thanks so much!! Glad you liked it so much and thanks for all the support!
