This definitely doesn't put me to sleep! Nice heavy riffs! Love the percussion and meter in this. I'm jamming out to this while I'm laughing at yours and Geoffrey's intentful "Don't Sleep" lyrics. Insomnia FTW!!!

Sick tune, yo! Pretty damn impressive! It's clean, rhythmically complex, smooth and absolutely flowing in the right direction. Keep it brothaman!

Very impressive, dude! This is spot on and with some originality! Love it! Here's my remix I produced back in 2007. The mastering is horrible, however you may still enjoy it. ^_^

Wow! That's pretty damn close! Awesome remake, bro! Though, it would have been really nice to hear you throw in something a little different with your own style than the original, but it's definitely spot on, buddy! I like how you switched up the rhythm with the main synth @ 01:32 and you sped up the overall track to get things moving! Great emulation!!!!... VERY IMPRESSED!!! 5ive STARS ALL THE WAY!!!!!!

Yeah, I may just make a remix too, getting as close to the original as possible was my main goal in this one.

Got Me Movin

Nice arp sequencing and trancey harmony! I absolutely love how original sounding this is yet strangely familiar. This track sort of provokes fun memories that I wish I could relive in the clubs I danced and DJed in back in Dallas, TX. The only dislike is the ending and how it kinda broke the momentum by slowing down at an unexpected moment after building up to a Hard Trance break that just went right back to the same repetition of 4-8 bars. Nonetheless, sweet track! Congrats again to both you and Shawn for creating such a nice sounding groove! Keep these tracks pumpin!

Yeah, I'll fix the song later. I think I might just turn this into the Final Version instead.

Loops Perfectly!

I think we have a winner AD! This is a very nice improvement and has a nice steady flow of rhythm and bass. Ok, so here is the breakdown of what I personally liked and the small dislikes... ;-)

Likes:
1. Maintains a steady DnB vibe of rhythm and FX on the bassline(s) and doesn't lose it's composure of movement
2. Loops seamlessly and doesn't knowingly drone on and on making me lose interest
3. Sounds are EQed quite well along with the mastering
4. The driving bassline "ping-ponging" back and forth with the snare is what fabricates and sustains the strength in this track

Dislikes:
1. Needs more of a catchier and more memorable bassline than the constant droning one by alternating it up a bit with another supporting harmony of bass (personal opinion)
2. Missing a climax... would help to have a part in it that makes you say "Damn! That was badass!" or a part that gets your ass moving even more than it did starting out. Everyone who listens to DnB would know what this is.
3. If this isn't just a sample, it's way too short.

Overall, this was pretty damn impressive AD since you mostly create Hip-Hop tracks! 5ived it raising it to 4.43/5.00 (+ 0.066) :-D

Boojah! Nice Review :D I like I like! I know what you want to point out, so lets just let me explain everything nice n easy ;)

1. Bassline is dificult for me to modulate..... VERY difficult..... NEARLY impossible atm with my current knowledge about Basslines so I just left it like that. Its still grooves just like it is now and I am happy with it so far xP

2. Climax, I know what you mean. But this is just a short thing I made for a Contest and the lenght restriction is about 16 bars so its just a small loop. But I like it so much I am thinking about expanding it to a full Track. With badass Moments indeed! But lets talk about the Climax here - Point out your fav Part in this Track: (PM me later for this ^^)

Mine is at 1:27 when the Bassline gets nuts xD Kickass Tune, I <3 that Guy for all of his Tracks. Spor rules my Day after work...

I started to look for an alternate Method to produce DnB without needing to modulate a Bassline so it rules the Song like it should. I came to the Conclusion that a Mixture of Drum 'n Bass and Ambient works great. IF YOU EXECUTE IT RIGHT of course. I saw People trying to mix that Genres and the ended up in a major fail :O It want to go just like oldskool Jungle with less Bass and more Melody and Harmony. Sure a soft Bass will be included but it just plays in the BG and has no complex modulation at all. It just suports the Main Beat and the Atmosphere. Listen to the new "Solar" Remix by Boney-Man here on NG and you will see what I mean. I like the Parts without the Bassline more then the others and its just that Track that got me into the DnA Idea.

When we collab I guess you must take the Bass Part ;)
Thanky for the Review

Almost Film-like

I really like the Doom 3 samples you used! It gives this track a sort of film-like quality sound to it and the rise and fall of cellos gives this track a feeling of angst. It's not really my style, but it sounds good nonetheless!

The Good...
1. Great build-up of sliding and crashing percussion with a groovin beat combined with the prestigious sound of orchestration gives this track a serious but cool sound.
2. The quality is really clear and adds to the atmosphere of the level of suspense.
3. Anything styled with video game samples I can appreciate because it's not as easy as people say it can be.

The Bad...
1. The synth you used for the pad-like sound that breaks into like a solo at around 00:49 secs sounds a little old sounding and too processed and MIDI sounding.
2. It's a little too repetitive and the repetition that is used is a type of sound that starts to drone in and out not really capturing my interest in sound for too long. Maybe if you switched it up a bit with other parts like a synth bass solo that rips through the middle part and makes the listener go "Wow, that's bad-ass!!!" because it sounds so different backed with like a filtered sequence of chords that sound like string instruments vocodored with sounds from the game. That might be a little more entertaining.

Overall, not a bad little track Tobias!

AeraDynamic responds:

Hey! Thank you! I really appreciate your Review cause you can say more about the Synth then anyone else here. It was the first time I used a Synth in my Tracks and I will use more for sure cause they really help me out getting away from the classic Violin way. Ectually the Beat was not build for vocals otherwise I would say its repetitive therefore but I wanted to keep it entertaining as itself and I am very satisfied about the final... Sure I used a present Synth but I just don't know how to make my own for now. But I guess you didn't noticed cause u use Reason anyway XD

Thank you!

First we got Jesus, now Satan?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Dude, it's nice to see you're back...at least. I got that same program, AV Voice Changer Software Diamond 6.0. <a href="http://www.audio4fun.com/voice-over">www.audio4fun.com/voice-over</a> I played a little prank on Chronamut one day on Skype with this thing disguised as an old grandma sounding voice. LOL The fun never ends!!!

This was awesome! I liked this more than the Jesus one. Though, I liked the addition of the sparkling sound in the voice on that one. You should make some new pranks now that your sound skills have more than likely improved...those are hilarious!!! You should call a neighborhood old folks home saying that you were trying to contact someone from Lava Life as an online date, and the operator from Lava Life transferred you to this #. Say that you want to skip all the "getting to know you" crap, and just tell them you want to get right down to making grandbabies...skip the children and go right to the grandbabies. And that you don't have much time left because your 97 years old but have plenty of Viagra. That would be crazy.

Anyway, nice to hear that your still whippin' 'em out! Ciao!

Nice Combo!

This is a very nice rendition of PX9's 'Zero Gravity' and my remake 'Zero Gravity in Dreamscape'. You pretty much had me fooled into thinking that you used the same bass sample. Gotta’ love the Dr. REX sequencer. That thing comes in handy if you can’t get a certain drum loop sliced and concocted evenly into a piece.

I love your twist you added to the main bass melody with a couple of high notes. It sounds more energetic. The high pitched legato effect is a nice addition along with the pitch filtered beats. That amen is always perfect for Dark Core D&B. It brings strength to the sound…great accomplishment man.

Hey, when you get the chance, check me out on Myspace.com and Mixposure.com. My profile pages are www.mixposure.com/dreamscaperx and www.myspace.com/dreamscaperbyro Catch ya’ later Brian.

AdmiralConquistador responds:

Haha, yes! Dreamscaper heard the remix of his remix! 'Tis a happy day for me indeed! I'm really ecstatic that you enjoyed my version of your version of Zero Gravity, because I LOVED your remix! The end with the drums fading out... man I couldn't emulate that so I had to just end it with a huge reverb bang hehe... the bassline you wrote for that gave me chills, I just had to use it. Thanks for being a constant inspiration Byron! I already added you to myspace, and really soon I'll be reviewing you on mixposure.

I think I found that inner child...

Gahwd, I'm still so immature! Man, this is really freakin' weird! Fits the title very true to the name with the xylophone. I think I like "the ice queen" more though.

Keep rockin' man!

Rock is a bore; Hip-Hop is a snore; Country I just ignore; Rap is like audio war; Heavy-Metal makes my ears sore; Disco should've died in '74; Electronic I love to the core. (People are going to hate me for stating this, so I won't state anymore.)
