Re: Parallelis - Intergalactic Dancefloor (40 replies, posted in Releases)

Great release, man. Very summery indeed. I dig the happy ish sound of it. I really like the last few tracks the best. I think the snares could be a bit more insteresting/punchy. Nice synthesis and melodies. Looking forward to more in the future.

Re: critique my first release? (27 replies, posted in Constructive Criticism)

Really like the instruments, ideas, and songs. I wish the mastering and mixing was more consistent. Certain tracks are louder than others and sometimes instruments are too loud in the mix. Really really dig it though! Great stuff.

YES!
It's not bad if you can't understand the lyrics, but the high pitched squealing aspect of the screaming sounds like that kid from youtube that spazzes out when his mom cancels his world of warcraft account.
This synthesis is boring, undynamic, and basically just stock instruments. You should experiment with combinations of tables and commands, and learn how to make kick drums and snares in LSDJ by using tables. Try stacking noise instruments with kit instruments for punchy drum sounds.

Listen to some 10k. His vocals are boss and he's pretty much perfected the style I think you're aiming for. Learn LSDJ more. You don't have to release everything or rush. I waited a long time before I ever released any tracks, and I was really happy that I did in the end.

And yea, quit asking people what they want to hear and make what you want.
I'm sure there are some exceptions, but all these new artists are always rushing to get popular and get their next new ep out, but they're always getting way ahead of themselves as their songwriting skills, synthesis, and originality need time and practice to develope.

Keep at it and don't give up. I know this sounds harsh but I'm just trying to help. Take a chill pill and learn your stuff.
That being said, I can hear that you have a lot of potential. Keep practicing and making tracks. Keep singing and playing guitar, keep experimenting. It's really cool that you're super eager and open to revising your stuff and improving it. This shows that you have the potential to get better and better. Keep at it, man.

Re: Need critic please.. :) (11 replies, posted in Constructive Criticism)

Needs variation, pulse/wav/kit kick drums, anything to make the synthesis more interesting. The melody is nice. Build it up and make an epic drippidy drop. Listen to some music you like and how it sounds... pay attention to the instruments, try to emulate those instruments or make your own. Read the LSDJ manual... Experiment.

Re: Frostbyte - 2012 (87 replies, posted in Releases)

Listening to the first track and loving this. Great sounds and melodies. Anticipating the rest of this. Love the kit drums. It's nice how thick you can get things sounding with two LSDJs.

People should really check this release out

Re: GALAXI (DEMO) (3 replies, posted in Releases)

My advice to you is to use your program for about a year, and do some self censoring. Listen to some stuff that is out there, listen to music you like, and then compare it to your music. Listen to the sounds, the melodies, the harmonies, the instruments the synthesis etc. It seems like many new artists are eager to release ep's, tracks, albums etc. If you want to make a bang and if you want people to listen to your music, wait a while, improve your synthesis skills, your composition etc. It's not the worst album I've heard, "Hostile" has some cool ideas but I still don't think you've worked on these tracks enough to bring them to a level of release. But who the hell am I to tell you what to release and what not to?
I guess my point is, if you want people to listen to your music and come back to it more than once, be patient, work, rework, and rework again. Experiment with synthesis. Write a LOT of songs, do short "exercise" songs and wait til you can compare your music to some other really good chiptune music out there and honestly say "my stuff is on par with this". Then release it, hype it, and you will probably get some great responses, praise, and feedback. Keep working hard and don't give up, man. peace
