"No hihats? C'mon!"

submission: Banjo Kazooie Rap Beat

date: August 21, 2009

I was expecting a good funktastic beat to come in about halfway, or atleast some kind of change - but alas, the same kick and snare over and over again. Good concept, but needs work.

Score: 9

"Rad!"

submission: p4c-Sometimes I Forget

date: August 15, 2009

I'm digging the percussion and melodic riffs here.

Only complaint would be the mastering (especially of the lower end) - the bass 'falls out' and could use a firmer kick as well as some better stereo panning on some of the instruments.

Other than that, this is a pretty sweet track!

Score: 0

"Garbage."

I'm not sure how you keep getting BOTW with sub-par submissions like this.

At any rate -

I guess you're making these in an effort to be funny, and while the portal was never made to showcase pointless humor (rather, music for flash games) I find it irrelevant as this doesn't even successfully have any good humor.

The technical quality is pretty bad - you clearly have no idea how to use Autotune, and probably less of an idea of FL.

You obviously took your idea from the show "Fone Jacker."

I'm pretty much done with this review. You're at rock bottom.

If you'd like to improve, you can always try reading up on basic music theory and production. There's your constructive criticism.

"You have.."

submission: [KKK99] step off motherfucker

date: June 23, 2009

Quite the potty mouth for someone who is believed to be ten years old.

Aside from the unnecessary cursing, your rapping is offbeat, there is an absence of melody, and all of the samples here sound straight from the FL packs.

A word of advice: try and make something as good as you can. Then, set it aside for a couple of days and listen to it again and try to improve on it.

Also, reading up on some music theory wouldn't hurt. A good place to start would be with "Scales," "keys," and "chords."

Hopefully you'll be on the road to improving in no time.

"5'd"

submission: MH16: Playing In The Sand

date: March 16, 2009

This is a nice, happy song!

I could easily see this as BG music in a game or something.

One thing that bugged me though was that the more mono-center instruments were too loud. (Personal preference, though.)

Other than that, nice work!

Score: 10

"5'd"

submission: Filigree

date: March 16, 2009

Very relaxing tune you've got here!

Only complaint was that perhaps the hats were a decibel or two too loud. But of course, that's a personal preference.

At any rate, keep it up!

Score: 8

"Good start, could use more melodies"

submission: Urban Night (demo)

date: March 9, 2009

It feels kind of static as of right now, you know?

Although i'm listening on some pretty shitty headphones at the moment.

At any rate, keep working at it!

"5'd"

submission: BeatSource - Rocking Late

date: March 2, 2009

Good song, but there were a couple minor things that bugged me:

Additional panning effects on the "rock the place (bass?)" one shot vox would be a neat addition. The overly right panning got kind of irritating.

The lead is great, but for some reason I kept expecting to hear the melody play a DIFFERENT note on the fourth beat of the first measure in the first half of the chorus. That probably doesn't make too much sense, but it made me cringe for some reason. Of course that's just a personal preference.

This is definitely an original-sounding song in the realm of hands up, so that's good!

Keep it up!

Score: 10

Nice!

What a great reviewer I am, eh?

No but really, this is damn legit, son.

Score: 9

"5'd"

submission: Can I Be Your Cure?

date: February 21, 2009

I absolutely love the experimental styles used here. Definitely a trippy song.

Probably my favorite part of the song was the guitar in the "foreground" that sounded as if it were far away. That's a neat trick.

As far as vocals, I think the guy below me nailed it.

At any rate, keep it up!
