[Tears of Divinity]

wow

that was really touching, great flute, and when the deep strings come in...OOOO lol, great sound...

i only submit hip hop, but i decided to venture off further into the depths of other music genres...and you are one of the artists (along with edgen and maestrosorrow) that makes me glad I have expanded.

MilkMan-Dan responds:

Oh wow... you have no idea what an honor it is to be compared with the likes of Winterwind and MaestroSorrow as they are... truly... well... masterminds :). Thanks alot :).

[_-=[Aftermath]=-_]

very nice

like most reviewers have said, the resounding 'e' gives a nice affect that mixes great with the ambient rain in the background...

and the lite viola in the back rele helped made this piece sound complete, i only wish it was longer.

great job

MaestroSorrow responds:

many thanks, I quite enjoyed writing this.

[10 Days, 10 SICK Beats (Day 5)]

thas wuz good

i sampled the same beat a few months ago, much differently though..nice job

[flaims VS Dj Dairy King]

nice sample

yu choice a great choice for tha drum sounds, they went perfectly with the sample

i vote flaims for this one.

[Killer Intentions]

nice strings..

but they dont go with hip hop...i like tha kicks, but turn up tha snare a bit, and change tha note on tha piano, it gets annoying...
equalize better wit it, it sounds too loud.

keep workin at it, hip hop is harder to master than people think

[Thinkin]

this is better

tha bass is WAY too distorted...compress it

i like tha strings, and tha kicks are nice too but it doesnt sound complete without some snares...rele important, good job on tha hats too

XIIIthSoundsSoldier responds:

The bass is meant to be that way dude! No insult intended but maybe you havent heard a British rap tune. Bass dominates very harshly in small short bursts. As for the snares i do try to include snares quite a lot but in some tracks it sounds plain creepy! Keep an eye out later for the rest of my mixtape instrums as soon as my tape hits the london streets.

[Serious Potential]

how many beats yu made?

iight, it was a good idea, orchestra hits are always a great instrument, but too many sound cluttered, especially when they are as low a note as these...

I see a lil bit of personal style comin from tha drumz, thas rele good.

over all, keep trying and good luck

[Vader Aint Got Shit On This]

nice choice for a sample...

but it sounds like yu gave up for tha drum beat part... yu needa change tha kick because that is not hip hop, tha snare needs to be louder and doesnt go with tha tone of the beat...

juss so i kno, are yu doin this for fun or do yu wanna do this for other reasons...i judge more harshly if yu wanna do this for other than fun so that i can help yu...

lemme kno

BeAtBrEaKeR187 responds:

im doin this sirius man, i dint have eny idea i was usin the worng kik, so i guess its gud u told me :P, wat adivse can u give me?

[~Be Straight~]

too much effects

you made it all way TOO wide...it rele dont sound good at all...tha melody was good
You needa pick better drums to go with tha instruments too...

check out my music for an example if yu want

[The Fury Returns 01-01-06]

interesting

try adding more then one snare sound together to make a new snare then load them into the same FX number and EQ them all together...

i like how yu changed into pizzcato strings and the drum rolls were nice.

you gotta turn down tha main instruments though, and tha snare

nice job, i like tha switch up later on through, that wuz unexpected...good shyt
