[Onward and Upward]

Amazing

This certainly is an awesome piece and one I would love to use myself with permission of course. The beats were layed down in such a happy and upbeat manner. It just works perfectly!

Turning-Japanese responds:

Ah, sorry I didn't see this. If you still want to, you're more than welcome to use the song. Thanks for asking, and thanks for the review!

[Clockworks]

Very Classy

Certainly very classy. I enjoyed this piece very much. By taking the melody of a clock and giving it flare you certainly made a wonderful dance track. It is also one where shorter is better than longer... it didn't drag out too long either which I like.

Overall you made a very fun dance song. Keep up the good work man.

DJ-Chilvan responds:

haha, thanx! It's like i might do a remake maybe next year or when i get the time.

[Duane Hopwood]

Certainly Not The Best

But it is quite average. The beats were all nicely chosen and I love the use of piano, but it was just way too repetitive. You really could've played with this a lot more and really made it beyond recognition.

RayRayBeats responds:

I agree. It's quite lazy of me.

[Tell me what it is.]

Hmm...

It truly is a beautiful song, but during the rap parts, that guitar kind of ruined the song. The lyrics are outstandingly wonderful. My only gripe is that guitar and it makes the song a bit unbearable to listen to. I say release another version of this song without the guitar and you'd have a very beautiful song.

Mackity responds:

I respect that, the beat was made by an artist here on NG though named edge of faith.. We never really confirmed with her or anything we just liked the beat and made a track with it.. I mean maybe if she agree'd to it then I'd definatly be down but revisions to the beat aren't up to me :(

[Now it's all on you]

Ah, This is Rap!

This is certainly a great rap song, one of the best ones I've heard in a long time. Nice and simple and doesn't require a lot of bass to be good, it stands alone as a song. The beats were all quite nice, I think you could've experimented more though. What really makes this song what it is are the lyrics which are outstandingly wonderful... and of course the vocals were some of the best I've heard for a rap song.

I will most certainly be listening to your work more often.

Mackity responds:

I'm real glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for your time. I hope my other works won't upset you. :O

[Title NA (teaser)]

Outstanding!

This is a wonderful loop! It loops quite well and is very action packed. I don't think you need to add anymore to this really, it works wonderfully as a loop and can be used for title screens or credits.

I simply loved this, the beats were all great! Keep up the good work!

Manhart responds:

Thanks a lot dude ! Hmm I might just add some minor details to it, and then maybe just leave it as this loop, as you suggest me to :)

[[DJ-G] Happy Poing Loop]

Poing Poing Poing

I think I might actually have a use for this believe it or not. Well it is short and simple, but it should at least actually loop well.

DJ-Galax responds:

Alright, thanks!

[Tower of 8-bit Greed]

Awesomeness

I truly enjoy the song. It's just outstanding to listen to over and over again. It could be used for platformers as well as puzzle games or adventure games. Truly outstanding 8-Bit Work.

MikeTaylor responds:

Thanks a lot Great-One, I'm glad you liked it!

[DJ Derrick--New Trance (WIP)]

Begin The Game

This sounds like when you start a video game and you're in the town that you must explore, or better yet the opening cutscene, it would suit better for an opening scene since most opening scenes last 5-10 minutes long.

Anyways the beats were all nicely done although it did tend to be a little repetitive, therefore just dragging the song out. You do know your stuff though I will admit that. All in all a great song.

Yodamanjaro responds:

1. It's a trance track. lol
2. It's trance, being repetitive by its nature of its genre.
3. Thank you for your review!
