[Dreamin demo]

Cool

Like the song and singing, and the whole feel of the intro, but needs some work on the other elements to bring it together; a nicer distorted guitar sound (as in less distortion, some comp + eq), bring the bass out a bit, a more defined ending and defo needs some drums, but overall good, all the hard work's already been done so :) well done!

dariaband responds:

Thank you very much for your constructive review :D! Yes We're going to record drums and other lines ;D ! We're just looking for drums and bass^^

[Hiding in the Darkness.]

Epic! Sublime!

Outstanding. Really.

Everything about this track is good, the arrangement really works, the writing is good and the mix is excellent! Good vocals too, god I wish I could sing >> There's only one thing I don't like, and that's the autotune + pitchshift effect towards the end of the vocals, doesn't really fit n detracts from the sheer awesomeness of the song. Well done!

Pushbar responds:

You have a point there. Since i was going for a prog rock kind of style i tried various effects, but i guess autotune didn't fit the style.

Thanks anyway ;D

[D17 - Minutes to Midnight]

Drum-tastic!

Absolutely loved the drums, the bells were nice too. Wasn't convinced by the synth chiors but it's not like any of us have access to a group of professional singers, eh? >> I wish. Strings and horns were interesting too, but I have to say the drums were the best part by far. Good work.

Echo responds:

The drums are brilliant i have to admit. But synth choirs? Those are East West Symphonic Choirs, the best choir VST you can ever get so far. Admittedly i cant use them that well yet, but effectively, i do have access to a group of singers, they're just on my computer instead of in real life. :|

Well anyway, tks for the review ;)
