Judge: Trencsenyi ,Zsolt A nice but boring song. There are some very nice parts but the chords are the same all over the whole tune. You created a superb atmosphere, but some changes are needed. I liked the samples, they are fine but try to sample them at higher samplerate... or rip some better ones :) The technical side is mediocre. You should used more stereo, the whole main part is mono except of those vocal samples. You should also remove the unused samples. |
Judge: Knutsen ,Joern I can hear that yuo've put quite some time into this peiece. All in all it's a good tune. But your samples are a little out of date. The acid samples is really bad. And your rythm is too simple. Your tracking technique is good, nice job with the flute. You need to make some more variatoins, like a brigde or at least a key change. The for is nice with a good ending. |
Judge: Buffoni ,Mirko Easy listening song, with a good set of samples. Even if the pattern is a bit repetitive, there are changes here and there that keep interest alive. Works good as a background music. The author shows skills in tracking that give high hopes for the future. Keep up the good work! |
Judge: Kim ,Rob Fair song. This has the potential to be much better if it wasn't so repetitive. It has a good beat and the voice samples are well incorporated into the song. The lead needs lots of work however, and each pattern started with the same two chords. The piano in patterns 17-24 fits really well in the piece. |
Judge: Zahn ,Derek Some interesting ideas in here, especially among the supporting melodic elements buried in the backgroud; I did not think that the main theme was strong enough to be repeated so often and the "rhythm section" did not really give any support to make the tune more interesting. Some nice tracking though in the backing and transitions and in the ending section. |
Judge: Grandpre ,Dan Nice pacing in the intro- the repeating bassline gets old though once you're a couple minutes into it; it doesnt seem to ever go away.. the vocal sample bit is out of tune, which is unfortunate because when it's in tune it really does add to the song (the singing note, not the talking).. samples sound like tried and true classics, they dont really sound too corny or anything, not bad.. there's nothing much to shout about in this.. it has a nice sound in spots but it really doesnt do anything and the parts that repeat aren't spectacular so i can't give it that high a rating.. they're certainly at least attempting to make something good though, which is surprisingly rare to see these days.. |
