[Visionary [Original Mix]]

Thank God For 15MB

If it wasn't for the 15MB limit increase, this song in its entirety wouldnt ever see the light of the portal. Thanks a lot for uploading this for everyone. I can finally enjoy the full version of this baby.I have been waiting for a while to hear it... and now, a reivew!

First of all, I think the bass is orgasmic. It is like you are banging the heads of unicorns against a subwoofer and recording it. Totally enjoyable man. The depth of everything in this song, its "color", is amazing. There are so many layers of very well made synths that combine to create Visionary. I can see a vision of everything in this song.

At 4 minutes, thing start to get interesting as the climax of the song builds up into a main synth fest. I love that da da da do do sound. The lead trance synth is crazy awesome. I really get sucked into this song in a euphoric state. I was hoping that you could throw in more of a dirty kick to the bass, but its current deep percussion state is still really awesome.

Keep up your hard work man.

Very Unique

I always enjoy listening to unique dubstep. Im sick of all this nonoriginal dubstep shit thats hitting the shelves of hundreds of stores across america. Im ready for something fresh, and fast. We need more stuff like this, but with a bit of an extra kick. This is a bit to soft in my opinion. but would be fantastic if you just gave it some more percussion and perhaps a bit dirtier steps. I love the combination of noises you use in here and love playing it in my car. It would make a great addition to an album. Chillaxing dubstep. Keep it up bro, respect.

Congrats on winning that contest by the way, you earned it.

Interesting, Heart Felt.

this song certainly had evidence of true heart put into it, but it simply wasn't mastered very well to be quite honest. It seems a little rushed. You probably recorded the whole thing in about a day. Always remember to take time to master a song, and prepare the recording process well. That is my only complaint, however, and think it is awesome that you can compose your feelings into music. :)

I do the same thing actually. I made a song called, "Breathe With Me" after meditation to release some stress from depression issues. I love using music as a way to escape.

KroweMusic responds:

When I express my feelings through songs, I don't really care to do much mastering. I just make the song for my own sake. I might make a remastered version later since this song seems to be gaining some popularity :)

Thanks for the review :)

[HW - Consciousness]

You are considered a professional in my book.

You could easily get a record deal bro. Your music is top notch, way better than 99% of the stuff on Newgrounds. I have my own top song list on Newgrounds, and your stuff is always at the top. The quality if your hand crafted synths is incredible. The glitching, the rolls, and all of the beats are ear candy. I could listen to this stuff alllllll day. I bought your mellows of revelations disc and was pleased. I play it a lot in my car and at parties. Your stuff is so chillax. I thought you were really fucking good before, but now I am not surprised when I hear something as amazing as this crank out on your user page twice a week. You deserve the top of the week most of the time, and should really strive to get there by simply telling people about your music. You can get all the 5s in the world bub, especially for god tracks like this.

Chillaxing, high quality ear candy.

[HW - But Now You Say]

Alice In Wonderland Samples!

I could tell you used Alice in Wonderland samples in here... the singing flowers I believe. Very nice. This is certainly your best dub hop song. *Dubhop lol*. I loved the scratching you did. Was it real scratching or just sampling? One of your best, keep it up man. We should collab again sometime soon.

[Can't Remember Where I Am]

Very Warm

I am making something similar to this, but it will be a lot more mellow. Some of the background noises that you use are to etchy and hurt my ears a bit. I have a great pair of headphones, so it really is the quality of the sounds and not just me. This really takes me on a trip through the city, late at night watching the neon lights pass by my forehead as I trail aimlessly through the concrete and steel maze. The combination of noises seem to just trail me off to where i cant even focus on the song anymore. That is a great effect.

I am listening to the full version now, here is what I see:

I stare out my window inside my small apartment. The buildings that make up my home have always towered high above my head, blocking out the golden rays of the sun. They cast gloomy shadows over my world and laugh at me as I try to find peace in this concrete jungle of chaos. I close the blinds and grab my shoes, grabbing a water from my fridge. I walk out my door and step into the dark hallway of the high rise that I must refer to as my home. I drowsily walk through it and make my way outside only to be greeted by the loud obnoxious noise of cars and people blabbering on their cell phones.

I walk with the crowds, staring straigh ahead into nothingness in an attempt to escape from my reality. It is nearly impossible, but soon I figure out a way to make everything blend together into a peaceful sound of harmony. I sit down on a bench and close my eyes. The world turns around me into a deep shade of black. I fall asleep.

LLAAPPSSEE responds:

Thank you for the review, man. This is a great a read. As I said above. I'm going to try and work with the drums a bit more, doing something a bit different by chance. Thank you for the beautiful words. I'm glad it paints a vivid set of imagery for you. That's my aim. I'm glad you could be taken somewhere. It's fairly spot on to the feelings behind this.

[The Drug Story]

I need to re-record the 2nd verse.

Your beat was fine and creative mixed well with a nice sample of sounds and FXs. I have a lot more experience in voice acting right now and would love to re-record this. I had a few errors in my voice acting, but not to many except for at 2:00 when I start the second verse. I need to re-record that second verse and everything will be great. Mind if I do that?

DXsamurai responds:

Ya you can re-record the 2nd verse. you should make it longer. By the way do you need another copy?

[New World Order ( remastered )]

Good For A Menu Loop

I have heard this mistake made in many many many many songs here on Newgrounds... and that is the mistake of using to many organic sounds. This is fruity loops right? It is extremely difficult to capture a nice "real instrument" sound. This is a nice little menu loop, however, and would be good for credit music.

I personally have no experience in creating real sounding instruments, because I personally prefer stay electronic with synths and pads instead of pianos and guitars. Perhaps you can try getting some tips from the orchestra pros here on NG.

This is a very clean song, however, and is mastered well. I enjoyed the filtering you used and how you stayed simple. It is a nice mix of organicness, so it actually is pleasant! I didn't like 0:55 - 1:21 to be honest.

[Color This World (IDM Mix)]

Underwater Cave

That static in the beginning really helps progress the deep background pad. This sounds like an amazing track for a sort of underwater mass adventure where your searching the outskirts of a gigantic space ship that crashed thousands of years ago, full of mystery and exotic surroundings.

Nice job on the out of tune sound youve got going, which actually brings real harmony into the whole in tune elements of the song if that makes any sense whatsoever lol. I need to learn how to add a bit more complexity into my songs, which i am planning on doing for my next! I am going to add a lot more SFX and atmospheric progressions as you do here.

[Let You Know (Drum N Bass WiP)]

Ok so uhh...

This sounds like, fucking INCREDIBLE on a professional surround sound speaker system... hell it sounds incredible in my fucking 89 oldsmobile cutless car. I played this at a halloween party I was throwing. Over 200 people came. We played this in a mix we were doing on the DJ set as a sort of "dubstep breakdown lead". Ended up looping it, it was fantastic.

Please extend this. Absolutley fantastic.
