submission: Rose At Meridiem

date: November 24, 2009

And there we go again ;0 Another epic *fall in love instantly* .
What can I write down more... everything has already been said, twice at least.
Hope to see more epic stuff in 2010 and hope that one day I will get the change to combine our love for RPG inspired music.

Keep up the great work. Tight huggle!

Carf!

"What can I say...?"

submission: Trance Turnabout

date: November 24, 2009

Another instant classic, but what else can we expect from you? Just like always a nice piece of artwork. Although I do not create a lot of trance anymore these days, it inspires me for sure.
Keep up the great work.

Score: 6

"Meh"

submission: NGHardstyleRe-MixCollectionPt1

date: July 1, 2009

It is missing that KICK that really makes hardstyle hardstyle. The melody lines are *ok* but all just kinda copies of things that we hear already everywhere. Just that standard *Headhunterz* clone... would get way more points from my side as a hardstyle lover (and producer) if it would also had that REAL dutch vibe. This is just a bit hard-trance with Hardstyle influence... still a good try, keep up the good work.
But I rather go for creativity then for a *familiar* sound which 8 out of 10 people digg anyways...

Score: 7

"Tunneltrance!"

submission: -RES Mix Test

date: June 18, 2009

The good old 90's when trance was still just an undiscovered Gem which slowly started to show off what is was/is capable of. The good old Tunnel trance.

Gewoon Ongenuanceerd spelen met geluid ;)

Sorry but that is the best way how I can express myself.
It is far from special but it shows off what you have learned the past couple of years. we all go through periods like this and you even have the guts to upload it.

Why? Just because you can ;).

Keep up the creativity.

"Het Sleutelhout/de hout sleutel?"

submission: The Keywood WIP

date: June 18, 2009

Hmmz I am not a wood expert so a key wood does not ring any bell to me, but what I can say is that the lead sounds luvely and I love how the bass c.c.comes in ;). Playing around with 8bit is always a +1 from me so...keep up the good work and drop me a PM when its finished ;).

Very interesting WIP

Score: 8

"Creative, original. I like :)"

submission: Accordion Jam Part 1

date: June 18, 2009

Take your time, you are not gonna miss a train! Try and focus more on a controlled airflow between your meassures and it will sound way more nice ;).
I like the lines which you play, it got a nice atmosphere but its just not convincing yet. Not enough... try to be ONE with your instrument, dont PUSH it, stroke it gently and have FUN while playing, do not force yourself to play nice cause that only makes you nervous, which I can sense in your way of controlling your keys and finger behavoiour. I haven't played for YEARS now but I now got the urge of picking my accordeon out of his box ;).

Just some friendly advice from somebody who has struggled with exactly the same thing ;0
Hope that it helps.

"The usual Rev ;)"

submission: Backyard Boom

date: March 23, 2009

Well there we go!
Warm deep sounds (as usual, and you KNOW I love that quality ;) ).
Especially at the start of the track, very nice start with low and high, immidiatly
makes me curious what will be next.

Starting of with a soft but steady kick to open up with D&B. Nice. From there it gets a bit
into Kosheen style (Phantasmagoria) which is absolutely a +point.
The beat and bass go nicely togheter while the vocal just flows over it, in perfect harmony.
My ONLY con is that I HATE Vocoders but that is a very personal thing, in general it fits
perfectly within the track.
It defenetly got a vibe, got a nice ongoing beat which does not take the overhand at anytime, but
is there just nice and smootly.
It reminds me of Red Dragon, but in a total different package, like you erased all the lines and left
the tones there to start over again with a fresh idea ;).

From a commercial perspective I think Paragon said enough :)

See ya around!
Carfie!

Score: 10

"Wonderfull"

submission: {425} CraZe

date: January 22, 2009

Makes sense it ended up in the top five.
Love the intro. Very playfull and a very luvely ongoing sound. Keeps me intrested in what will follow.

The sound reminds me to the good old amiga intro's for games. If you do not know what I mean search for it on youtube, you wont be dissepointed ;).

Keep up the creativity!

Score: 4

"To cheesy..."

submission: DjSc00p - Believe

date: January 13, 2009

Start of the song was almost promising, but after that... a kinda boring void filled with claps. The sound of the melody is way to cheesy and does not really create an atmosphere to the whole song. When the bass finally start I was already done with the repeditive lines. No variation in rhytm or lines...
Could be *funny* as a middle part for a track but this is not my style at all.

Please do not feel offended, I just give my opinion on the track, the overall quality is decent, you know how software works. Now create something stunning!

Score: 3

"Messy..."

submission: Neolithic Nation

date: January 9, 2009

A wild combination of all kinda styles but defenitly not even comin close to hardstyle... Dont know any history about you or your music so I rather leave some intresting tips to help you out then to flame this...

At first... you KNOW how to handle a sound, you used a backwards synth which sound lovely, as you take that sound as your basic and build a melody with it (which was not presented in the track) you are already half on the way. Hardstyle is not a bunched and distorted bassdrum but rather the bit nicer less evil cousin of a hardcore bassdrum, the one that you used aroun 1:30 comes close already, but on 1:44 you completely ruin it again...
Way WAY waaaaaayyyy to much low!!!
I hope this helps you a bit further in your quest ;)
