[B0UNC3 - Voyager]

Nice melody.

The melody is extremely catchy which I like. And I know what its like to have a melody similar to other songs; you just can't get it out of your head and it influences what you make.

Anyhow, the mix could be improved a bit, as well as some of the breaks, which lose a lot of the energy. And the one percussion thing at around 1:55 is really badly eq'd for that part.

AND WTF IS WITH KEVIN BACON... (Yes, I meant Bacon, Kevin) So annoying.

10/10

[5 legend of ZELDA song]

Great Arrangement

Sounds like something professionally arranged for orchestra or something. Transitions were great for the most part.

One thing that could be improved is the deepness in Hyrule temple, as well as the brightness. It sort of sounds stuck in the mid-range. The floating melodies for a few of the others were done exceptionally well though.

[~EnV~On The Move!(NG Cut)]

Great work.

Only thing is, the mixing could be a lot better, as you said.

[[D106]He's a Pirate Dance Edit]

Why 6/8?

The choice to use 6/8 seems pretty useless considering the original is in 4/4. And its often easer to switch to 2/2 from 6/8, with an 8th note become triplets. That aside, there are a TON of other remixes of this song... NOT a new thing at all.

[He's a Pirate - F-777 ReMiX]

Pretty good.

Seems like some of the ideas for the glitchy lead near the beginning are similar to Tiesto's though. Its still quite good though, and not too much alike to any of the other remixes of this.

[_/Feeling\_ (vocals)]

Pretty good.

Great composition. I really like the chord progression.

One thing I don't like is the EQ on the vocal. Its way to bassy. Also the autotune is a bit wobbly. I know that its really hard to do (from experience) :P. Try using Melodyne for tuning stuff, it rocks.

But yeah, good job for using your own vocals.

8/10
5/5 (decided to vote 5 anyways xD)

Quite muddy.

The bass in some spots, combined with the kick was way too loud. So much that it causes distortion. I also didn't like the trancegate, and found it did not add anything.

Good for an a relaxing tune.

ToxicBlizzard responds:

Yeah i know
the song it self gave me some big problmes
thanks for the honest review (:

[Don't You Know]

. Wow .

This is really great for NG music. Songs like this deserve to be in the top for trance, not some of the total CRAP that is here. The only thing I didn't really like is part of the buildup, but still well done. And, the bassline is quite well done (I can never get that part quite right).

5/5
10/10 Faved.

[Blue Roses (BC Remix)]

Good composition.

Reminds me of Deadmau5 a lot (you've already heard that :P). I've been listening to him a lot lately, and then I saw this lol. The mastering is pretty well done, although some of the mid-high portions are slightly muddled (as in too much in that area). Still excellent though.

4.5(5)/5
9/10

[Look To Me]

OH shit!

That piano melody at the beginning had me hooked right away. The flute-like instrument was well done too, although it could use a reverb or something to blend it. The whole intro was excellent, although the point directly after it was a slight let down.. The whole composition was very well done though, I like it very much.

9/10

Thanks for the review! I agree, basically the entire song could have used some better mastering with levels and such as well. Cheers dude
