Pardon? (Theme)

"Very nice song."

submission: Pardon? (Theme)
date: August 15, 2009

The theme from 0:18 is really nice.

Most songs would start adding in lots of instruments, but I really like how this one keeps to the same.

It feels like it's telling a sad story.

Slave Bird - MS

"More of 0:08"

submission: Slave Bird - MS

Nice guitar sound. I like the part at 0:08, sounds awesome.

It really sounds like the song should follow that part. Let the bass and drums come in under the riff and start kicking ass.

But as it is, the songs just tries out a few things then doesn't go anywhere with them.

The quieter parts sound kind of Primus like, btw

My Final Trip South - MS

"fun"

date: August 14, 2009

The guitar part is nice, but the synth for it pretty bad and distracting.

I like it when the piano and bass play are playing together.

Way to separated tho. The different parts of the song don't sound linked enough, since so many of the instruments swap. I suggest keeping some more instruments constant through out more of the song. But playing new things underneath.

Dont Do It - MS

"Cool, but not enough variance"

submission: Dont Do It - MS
date: August 14, 2009

I liked the beginning part a lot. It has a very cool ambient and dark style to it. Reminds me of some of the dark ambient songs in the Half Life 2 and Portal soundtrack (which I love, so nice job!).

But the rest of the song didn't really go anywhere.

The drums where kind of cool, but they put a halt on the cool atmosphere you had going. It would have been ok if there where some more changes to the chords and some subtle harmonies coming in. But sticking with the same chords and beat the whole way through makes it feel like it doesn't go anywhere.

I do like some of the style though. And if you try out some different song structures and develop the ideas a bit more you could have some pretty nice stuff.

This could easily be a song that gets left on loop for ages without noticing and hypnotizes you, but there'd need to be more to break it up, so it doesn't feel like one 10 second loop over and over with a lead synth on top.

This, my song.

"This, my review."

submission: This, my song.
date: July 11, 2009

The story was really cool to read while listening.
As a song on it's own, I feel it's a bit lacking. I didn't like the large silent spaces. It would work fine as a film score though.
Here's hoping someone makes this into a flash movie :)

"Kick ass"

Awesome.
Love the percussion. Some of the guitars sound a little too synthy.
Also, that synth at 2:50 onwards fucking kicks ass.

"Nice"

submission: Rig - Standardized

For some reason I can not stop listening to this song! I've had it downloaded for a few weeks and thought I needed to review it.

It's got that cool synth bass line and a really nice kind of broody atmosphear to it. Great for game music :)

I've been on an American Tail phase the past few weeks, so it's awesome to hear some music from it up here :)

Nice sound for the vocals. They seems slightly loud maybe tho?

BPL - Får Jag Med Er

"Kick ass song!"

date: March 31, 2009

Very good sound. Even tho couldn't understand the words, it sounded cool.

Maybe worth putting up an instrumental version so people can use it in movies and games here?

Cool chill out song.
I really like the drums, but the synth chords have a bit too many cheesy 80s effects on them.
