[[SJ] Blast Furnace]

dude

please for the love of god, re-mix those kicks and snares. I want them to hit me in the chest.

This could kill a dancefloor if you treated the drums correctly!

SteakJohnson responds:

thanks! i plan on this....

[Conforming Dub Shit Song]

Heh, I liked it :)

I think deep down you know it isn't as shit as you say ;)

I also think you should expand on this some more. There's some wicked ideas in there! Also that kick is meaty as hell.

Great job!

Father-of-Death responds:

Thanks man, the reason why I think it's shit is because I know I can extend it and make it longer and better, but I for some reason fuckin can't, totally lost creativity at the end.

[Fucking Clubbing House Remix]

Goddammit

Prodigal, you need to stop fucking around and get some tunes on beatport.

Archealor responds:

lols

[Wild and Aggressive]

Garageband

This shouldn't have gotten through the approval process because it sounds to me like a bunch of stock Garageband loops.

Which isn't neccesarily bad, in and of itself, but this song is terribly unstructured, implying that not alot of effort went into it.

Plus this sounds more like skater punk.

Aggressiveness responds:

Nah, it's just that our recording equipment is total crap. We're gonna do a remake of the song which will still sound like crap, but have more structure and be shorter and the tempo will be a bit faster.

[-)S(- Turn On the Spotlights]

Sick tune

Cool tune you got here man! Bass could be a bit rougher, kick could do with a bit more...uhhh...*shooom*, and the snare could be a little deeper and slappier...but those vocals were the shiiiiiiiit! :D

Will responds:

Thanks muchly! Gonna work on the slaps and shooms and shit

[Live Free (Aries1g)]

Fuck yeah

I'm not the biggest rap/hip-hop afficianado, but this goes down smoooooooooth :)

Aries1g responds:

thanks mayn!

[Lemonade Magazine]

Cool :)

Reminds me of The Mighty Boosh for some reason :P

flunkedy responds:

WOW THATS THE BEST COMPLIMENT EVER! many thanks!

[Flood of consequences]

Sick

Haha, awesome work man. I can tell you had fun making this :)

of-wolf responds:

Thanks alot, glad you liked it!

[[LK] Det Var En Gång En Fågel]

Nice one ;D

Pretty catchy melody, pleasant production. Not as hard and offensive as I prefer my dance music to be, but you can't really fault this. It's kind of missing 'funk', but that's something that you'll develop as you continue to produce ;D.

Can't wait to check out your stuff 6 months down the track :]

LK412 responds:

NOOOO WAYYYYYYYYY!!!

JARRYDN REVIEWED MY SONG!

I know what you mean, there isn't as much energy in this track. (I prefer high energy tracks as well). But this is more of a fun laid back track, to listen just to get stuck in your head :P.

I really don't know what you mean by funk, but as you said i guess ill find out as i develop.

Thanks a lot for dropping buy and the review :D!

[First Musings]

Heh, mischievious :)

I can't comment on the actual production value because I'm listening to this on 1 inch drivers, but the overall composition is swell, if a tad sparse :). Really liked the bassoon at the beginning, sounds very cheeky. The last 15 seconds or so was awesome as well, when you started to fill it out with strings. I think this could benefit from a smattering of percussion though :)

Also, what time signature is this in? I can't figure it out!

loansindi responds:

Yeah, I find myself focusing on very limited instrument sets, I don't really know why, but I gravitate towards three and four piece ensembles when writing. Maybe I'm just noobly.

Percussion is something I never think to do with 'classical' pieces. I might take a crack at it tomorrow though.

You're gonna kick yourself... 4/4
