[Balaur Lume]

Great use of percussion! Could use a little more variation in the first and last bit.

NickKaedalus responds:

Thank you‼ Yes, that's some of the details you only notice after the music is done, but I will keep in mind for my next works.

Rock On‼

[Kenneth Boxall - Cooley]

Fun but repetitive. I love the sound but this could organized better.

[Mega Man: Final Stage]

i feel like this song could have been mastered better. enjoyable, but a bit weird sounding in some parts, especially the bass. overall, nice song though.

[Punch Line]

interesting ideas, and enjoyable pitches and lay out. but the percussion and mastering needs a lot of work. some stuff sounds very scratchy, and some stuff too loud. Mastering is extremely important, an annoying clap is enough to make the whole song sound bad. the synths were on a pretty good stand point in those terms however. I would re-EQ your drums if i were you. That could make the whole thing a lot more enjoyable without changing the actual song itself

Druids-Warcry responds:

EQ is fine, its your speakers that cant handle the epic bang of that bass, but i agree the clap is gay as fuck

[the song of the sea]

i can really tell effort was put into this song, the mastering is great, and the structure as well. Simple yet effective and delightful.

ps. i like your theory on anti-buildups i might try it sometime.

johnfn responds:

thanks! send me a link if you ever end up using the same idea :)

[Crimson Crisis]

make your own circle? ;)

Darknessbreaker responds:

Haha. :) I could do that and i know some people that would help me with that (and of course join it) but i should get better before ^^

[Shifting Sands]

great for an ambient piece but the snare is very annoying. if the percussion changed i could see this as a cool jungle piece and if removed a cool ambient piece.

[Chip's Theme [8bit]]

Starts out straight forward with the 8-bit feel. i can hear some nice small touches here and there. And additionally really interesting synths such as the one around 0:33. Simple yet Satisfying, and a very enjoyable listen. Although this song doesn't have a strong replay value because of it's repetitiveness it has enough minor changes to keep the listener interested. Nice song 4/5.

Thank you for the detailed review, and I'm glad you enjoyed it and took it for what it was, a simple and fun little tune :)
