[LO - Bang-O-Rang (MD2011)]

epic

This has a very different vibe than most of the dubstep i've heard. Parts of it are very smooth, it almost has a groovy vibe to it somehow. I think it's the sweeping filters over the white noise.

Listened to this on my speakers, and the stereo separation sounds really good.

Oakwood responds:

I found the sweeps to be very good as well, it's actually the first time I got them to sound like that. :)
Thanks for the comment.

Refreshing

The mix doesn't sound the best, but for some reason it doesn't bother me in the least bit, seems like it sounds like it should. I didn't expect vocals (seems to be a rarity here) but the vocals are good and the lyrics put a big smile on my face. Later on in the song though, it starts to really remind me of pink floyd... that is a good thing!!!

[Dream Girl (Hardcore)]

hmm

Nice, although the drums sound very dry, sounds good and loops are always useful. :) 5/5

DJ-Corey-X responds:

Thanks a lot man :)

[S N U F F]

sweet

I noticed that this got 0-bombed, that sucks, but it only happened because this song is badass.

Kubbi responds:

The fuck is 0-bombing? D:

[WO HE NI]

I like this

I don't speak Chinese, but that is a phat beat, nice drop at at the 51 second mark. Perhaps a bit too compressed for my tastes, but enjoyable none-the-less.

SteakJohnson responds:

thanks dude, good to hear from a reviewer that actually listens to the whole thing!

[latin_01]

groovy

Awesome as usual. Is this the same bass VST you used in "loop_T01"

I'm curious to know what it is.

tilman responds:

it is paritally!
this sound in particular was achieved with
spectrasonics' trilian, but basically any upright bass sound
will do. take a look at some different VSTs and decide,
which one you like best.

i'd love to actually record any instrument for real,
if only it wasn't that expensive :D

thanks for the review!

[Role Model Cover (Eminem)]

cool

I like this, although the mix could be better, seems too loud/compressed. I would do something about the vocal track, using copyrighted samples is against the rules and might get you banned. To be honest, the vocal track only takes away from the song itself anyway :p

TheRealSam responds:

Well I've worked quite a lot already on that mix, tried to give it a little Periphery-ish sound, hence the heavy compression and loudness. And about the vocal track, I know it is copyrighted but all the other work is mine, I'm just doing like quite a lot of artists on YouTube for instance, who don't seem to have any copyright issues. And I feel that the vocals work waaay better pike they are right now. Screamed hiphop vocals are just... Ugh. Thanks a lot for the review, stay tuned: more to come soon! :)

[S.U.I.A- Augmentation (RD2011)]

Fantastic

Never been a big fan of wobble tunes, but it sounds fantastic with that lead. Nice work, 10/10 and 5/5

superuberinsaneausm responds:

Thanks!

[EpiK Summer Party]

I dig

I like the ideas you have here, but right now it lacks a good kick/hat/snare beat, and since it's not finished I rate this a 9.

At around 3:16, something in the mix makes it sound like my phone is ringing from the other room. Fooled me twice :)
