I realised that,

I said I would stop by and review every now and then, I almost forgot! I'm very sorry, but I'm finally here lol. Alright, lets have a looksee.. Its a pretty meh song, it lacks originality, it lost a great deal to the lack of origninality, diversity, and it felt as though it was trying to pick its self up and get moving, but it was tied down. Its decent, I'll give you a decent mark for effort though ^^.

Claps feel a little overused, but the reverse cymbal, though frequently used in trance, made for a damn good intro into the main melody. Although the main melody jumped at one part about mid way, and it seemed to drone on in darkness, not really finding any particular path to take.

I hope this review is at least of some benefit to you. And I hear what you say, Z-Bombers would be picking up dog crap from my back lawn with their mouths if it were up to me lol =p. I've been hit many times as well. Oh, and hey, do stop by ^^.

3/5, but I'll give you 5/5 to help mend damage, good luck! ^^

Wow..

I absolutely love crystalline sounds! These bells and the harp worked perfectly, the gave the feeling of wonder and excitement, a sense of awe. The strings were perfect, as they gave a feeling of innocence, happiness, then they were joined by horns, and gave off the feeling of an adventure, a remorse. The harp solo led back in and offered its relaxing melody. For a short loop, this has an astonishing array of feelings and difference incorporated into it. Very well done.

So, of course after getting such a review from you, I was already going to come and take a look at your page, but then you asked if I would come, and naturally, I had to. I'm very glad I did. Most certainly, this has its orchestral moments, but classical it is not. Ambient I do believe would have fitted this more comfortably ^^.

Naturally, you're good, you don't need me to tell you that, but I find now real enhancements that this could need, so I'll just leave it and say that I will continue to review your pieces.

5/5, and a download. Replayability 9.5/10. Wonderful job ^^. Like wise, don't get knocked from the fray!

MaestroSegments responds:

Thanks Mataro, I thought aside from trying new samples that i'd try to make a good loopable song, one that loops without huge signs and tell tale signs. I thought this was done pretty well in that aspect, and was afraid too add too much in fear that it would negate that entire purpose.

Thanks a ton for the review ^^.

I meant every one of those tens.

Absolutely, I haven't heard anything I could compare to this, its diversified perfectly, I hear no distortion other than what was obviously intended, and it sounds like a lot of work went into this one. Downright wicked.

I told you I would be back =p. And ok, maybe you saw me in the vg, I was up near the top for a while, until I got z-bombed to hell lol. Oh well, do stop by, it would be a pleasure to hear from someone of your artistic calibre.

But again, the point is the song, awesome, my only suggestion, is it could be slightly longer, the one problem that you would run into there, is that it may get repetitive. So its great as is. One of the few songs that get a perfect score from me, this is truly awe inspiring. Full of energy, it grabs you by the throat and throws you out the door into what is obviously a step forward from where you were, because you now see more, like a greater understanding. Very few songs can really have such an effect, and it would seem you managed to capture the essence in this wonderful audio.

5/5, and a download. The synth melody is wonderful. The strings are the perfect ambience. Replayability 7.75/10.

The-XI responds:

Good sir, you can trust me on this one, if I made it any longer, I would have changed the melody drasctically just to make it entertaining =)

Thank you for the nice comments =D

I stopped by like you asked,

and for crying out loud, why ask my opinion when your an artist ten times more talented than me? Lol =p. Well, two things first, this review isn't going to be too terribly long, because I already wrote a huge one for this song, but my internet cut as I was trying to send it. Sorry, but I'll make sure to leave something constructive. Alright, first thing first, this is perfection, the only thing that it lost to is that it is not quite as diversified as it could have been, but it works perfectly for its purpose. The instruments, distorted bass offers a driven beat that adds energy, the pluck synth adds on to the bass and works cumulatively, the drum beat adds even more drive, while giving the song a more full feeling, the piano adds relaxation in an upbeat manner, it blends perfectly, the synthesized strings give it background and a great overall feeling, the distancing in the beginning works for a perfect introduction to the melody, and leads in the beat excellently. This is Xtreme G grade material; wicked stuff. Truly awesome. My only lingering question, is why did you choose me in particular to come in and review? How did you even come to know I existed? Lol. Well, I take my leave, but I'll let you know, your on my favourites now, and I will make sure to come by again and leave you a review or two =p.

5/5, and a download. Replayability 8.5/10.

The-XI responds:

How did I know you existed? You submit to the audio portal too, lol =D

I would have rather have read the longer version of this review, but this one was seriously long anyways =S lol

Thank you for the nice comments! I worked hard on this song, as your review is telling me that you appreciate =)

9's across the board =p

Huh, when I first came by your stuff, you were back on maniac flood and such, its great to see you have advance this much! I'm glad I paid you a visit, you see, your the person I look to when it comes to FL, I used GarageBand, but that has come to an end, I just can't use it any more because I am losing my Mac, but now I have FL, and obviously this is the first place I would turn, great stuff. I was hoping to be able to say that my stuff is right behind you, or maybe even on par! But hell no, you have to go and out do me, squish me like a little bug, crush all my hopes and dreams lol =p. I'll catch ya one day =p. But about the song! Great stuff, absolutely terrific, very eery, nice dark atmosphere, love the synth. Awesome, my 5 is yours, do stop by my page please, your on my favourites, and it would be an honor to be graced by your thoughts ^^. I hope to see you there, and I will be keeping tabs on you now, I need to learn all I can, as quickly as I can, so I can get back in to the groove, as it obviously takes a while when you change program, and the original one, and the one your changing to have almost no similarities at all lol. Good Luck!

RyeGuyHead responds:

Dont feel too bad man, i did this song with reason, so the production is a lil different than fruity loops.
Its been a while since ive used that program come to think of it...

Ill hit your page up

Neat,

very cool, I like it, but it doesn't seem that terribly different to me, the pluck synth, seemed to bend a bit near the end, and that left a bit of a bad taste, this sounds like something that would be best suited to DooM 2 lol. Nice job, you get my 4, congrats ^^.

Billy86 responds:

thanks for the review!

Was anyone else thinking,

"Damn, its like XG in slow mo lmao", cause I sure was lol =p, neat, clean, basic, simple, but try and stray from the beats a bit, throw a few melodies in your tracks =p. Nice job, keep going. ^^

=.= Heh..

Sometimes you just gotta wonder about what people do with their lives, you know, wasting them clicking on a button for three days straight and all? Lol, rule of thumb, especially for newbs, is if you think your audio might suck, then don't submit it, only submit something that you can be truly proud of, nice try, lol ^^.

Very repitive..

But good some how, its got this eery reminiscince of DooM about it, especially the background synth, and the main beat almost feels like OOT lmao. Nice job, but why is it diamond? o.o... I think we have a few M-DLers on our hands =p. Well I stopped by because you left a nice review for me, and I am glad I did, thanks again, for both the review and this interesting little bit of nostalgia this loop has inspired in me, keep it up! ^^

Better, but short.

The only real problem is that the bass is overriding absolutely everything. Its like your listening to a song, then someone accidentally bumps your 'woofer to max, and you go deaf for a while lol. Nice try again, keep going ^^.

If anyone wants a review on a particular song, feel free to PM me, I'll be happy to leave you a few comments, any style, no prob. Just leave me to review a song or two, no "Come and review my music plz!" ok? Haha, we have a deal then? :P
