REVIEW

JK

Ummm, I would have classified this as VG becasue teh sytnhs sounded old school and beta like as did the really cool bassline and beat. My favorite part was when it kicked in. Good track though, I actually enjoyed listening straight thru it.

Khuskan responds:

I normally only tag my actualy VG remixes as VG music. Again, its an old track, so to be honest, I don't really care anymore. I don't intend to remake this one.

You piss me off -ALMOST

Dood, so i am checking out your audio and I was thinking about d/l this one cuz it reminded me of Crystal Method which is my favorite and then you fade out the song-ASS! Gimme more now-and I will most def use this in my compilation!

[ZENON Drum Solo--_--]

Mics?

How many mics you runnin on that drum set and what kind? Tell me you process of recording :)

You got drum skillz dood-nice dbl bass too :p
And the tom rolls are great!

Thx JAG

PERVOK responds:

you may not believe me....
1 mic.
worth about...$15.
but i got this new sound card in my computer, so theres next to none noise. But if i record with my laptop, there is NO noise.
I position it a little higher than my two tome, but itd be facing more to the high tom (cause the high hat and snare are there)

so then the loud things to the left(when you face the set straight on) are quiter, and the quiet things (my china to the right) is louder.

and it picks up the snare drum gewd too.

thanks for the review!

[Chaoz Devotion--_--ZENON REMIX]

waxed for words

I cant say it in any better words than ljcoffee did as far as the technical parts of thsi song go. All your stuff seems to be somewhat mono, hmmm (I'll have to check my gear as well.)

I think that this is a great remix tho-its almost stand alone and definitely competes with ParagonX9.

The more i listened the more inclined I was to a D/L

Gratz!
JAG

PERVOK responds:

i know...the mono-ness...
well, since this is a remix, and i didnt wanna pt any undue pressure on myself that night when i was making this, i just did put too much work into actually...making it diverse, or simply playing with FX or anything.

so, again, thanks for the review!

[Lethal Combination--_--]

NICE

The first thign I thought when I heard the drums was wow those sound real! As I work and learn in a studio all day I am begining to get the ear for it. Then I read some of your other submissions and I gathered that you have a real kit. Beuno! I like it because it makes the song so much more real. One complaint-it sounds a little mono. The mix needs a little help. Other than that I really liked the how you drownded the audio and then did like a reversed phase thing coming back into it. A+ there! I am gonna d/l this one! And d/ls most always get a 5!

JAG

PERVOK responds:

hahaha...yes, you DO have the ear for it, my friend. But...sadly those are not real.
I grabbed those samples royality free off the net.
amazing, no?
Yeah...im thinking i should ahve made them more diverse or someting.
And the 'drowning' thing, actually is a lot simpler than you might think.

A simple filter on the master FX channel, and a nice littler controlled auto-mation clip.

*thumbs up*

thanks for the review!

The Madness

PERVOK responds:

thanks for the review!

[§Zeth§ War of souls]

Reminds me of stuff

Reminds me of games like UNreal Tournament and I have been playing a lot of Diablo LoD lately which has a lot of classical battle tunes in Harragoth. I very much enjoy this-it is well done for classical. OH! It also reminds me of Final Fantasy. Battle themes are cool-any other style you do should be a twist offa this stuff with some more "romance" and epic type stuff in it. SOrta liek the intro or bg theme for a great EPIC movie.

I will have to check in on you stuff in time.

JAG

XGM-Zeth responds:

Thanks for the lengthful Review and high rating. And particulary for all suggestions, and influences I may steal :D

If you check frequently I might have composed a piece or two sooner or later :D

Thanks! (If I get the time, I'll check out your stuff)

[COOONTAAACT! (Battle Hymn)]

Hlsy fucking intro

The intro synth is godlike! I had to review this just to tell you I liked the intro. It was cool enough for a five-I dunno why I like it I just did. It had a pleasing ring in my ears. This almost reminds me of the remix tracks Rob Zombie made. hats off to you again my friend. Lastly, I can't make out what the sampled guy is saying...

You kick ass with the darkness
JAG

Rucklo responds:

Thanx alot man! The sample is me screaming "COOONTAAACT!!!" :D
When i get to my senses, im gonna try making more dark shit like this :)

[Rucklo - The Drifter]

Panning Ear-mind

Dammnit I forgot to ask you about the story behind the Carlita track and all with the therapy///

///This tune is crazy with the drums in and out and the lead gets all crazy in the end. The mix feels a little choppy jumping from one section of drums and synths to another and some soloing that you did. But I like the thumping bass and how you played with the drums. Good fun-if you want I got a friend from college who makes music alot like this with the drums-hit me up if you want to hear some of it for maybe a lil more inspiration (check my profile for info)

Another d/l

JAG

Rucklo responds:

Thanx! :)
