Ryzmik responds:

Indeed! No doubt is called Massive :-)

[press A to not die]

if squarepusher's "hard normal daddy" was the wii sports soundtrack

[Over]

love the distorted sound of this, and the planing of that sampled choir pad is insane

let the bodies

[g r o o v y]

loads of fun. love me some tek

CHEEZ2600 responds:

Thanks. <3

[UntitledBreakcoreTrack02]

the amen chopping sounds pretty good, do wish maybe there was more variation to the patterns. in general, i feel like this could really benefit from less repetition and more variation

btw, if your computer is too slow for ableton/vsts, why not try a tracker like sunvox? they're practically talor made for these genres

[Haphazard]

the intro/buildup is nice, but i feel like the drop doesn't sufficiently carry the energy into a climax. idk, maybe try some bass design? i feel like throwing in some quick chops would have worked better than what you did here

additionally, the drums are kind of weak, probably because there isn't any sidechaining to them, though some saturation and compression would help as well

but, it's not all bad! i like the energy in the beginning, you just need to carry it over properly. the chord progression and melodies suit the energy well

overall, not bad!

ChordsInMotion responds:

Thanks for your review! After relistening today, I definitely agree with all the constructive criticisms

I'll try to do something with this advice and I'll update this review if I can figure out how to make it better >:)

Thanks again!

UPDATE: I have uploaded an improved version :)

[Gravely Uncertain March!]

spoopy, but relaxing in a way. i like the harmonic minor key

maybe could use some more space or humanization?

[Aneurysmus - Chalupa Mornings]

can relate
