My god!

The looping really made me (and quite a few bemused faces in the office) sit up and pay attention. The robot noise itself was pretty good, though I did think your author's comments of "Turn it up" was certainly a sick joke.

Like Haggard suggested, put them all together into a large collection of similar sounds, leaving gaps between them, so that artists could choose which sounds were required. (It would also only take up one slot on the audio credits as well :P)

Hey, that givez me an Idea....
If people use loadz of slots them I'm moar of an attention whoar.

Nice tune

I'd say that you need to work on the drag along the strings with your guitars. Maybe turn the amps down slightly, as it sounds like you're trying to drown out each part of the tune with each other bit.

I like the lyrics, but I'm not entirely sure that this is my favourite music. Not that that should take away from the tune at all, it's a good piece.

If the guitar was played maybe an octave higher, it would be in better keeping with the vocals, as the guitar does sound quite deep, comparatively speaking.

Look forward to hearing more of your work.

LenardNotLenny responds:

Yeah, its kind of hard to turn the chords an octave higher, because they sort of are. And the range is too large for me to move it all up. Thanks for the review, and I will keep on making music.

Nice but short

This has the beginnings of a good tune, with the well displayed properties of making the title of the tune related to the tune itself.

It really needs to be something longer, in order to make the grade, but at least you've got it looping nicely.

Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks for the review! Maybe I'll make a longer version of this . . .

Well worked

I'm not entirely sure about the sound that starts at the intro - I don't even know what instrument it is, but I personally found it really annoying and I think it is holding your song back a little.

The pause in the middle could have been made just that little bit longer, for more effect. Those are the only niggles, with what i found was overall a very nice song.

LenardNotLenny responds:

Cool. Yeah... it was a synth on a keyboard with a very obscure Garageband filter. Thanks for your feedback.

Creepy and Surreal

The intro is very surreal, as if someone is walking through a deserted old house, full of dust and cobwebs.

Then it takes a turn for the macabre, as someone or something startles them and the chase is on. They run and somewhere along the line, there is either the chased being caught, or some other reason that the tune directs us back to the start. Maybe they were just listening to an old music box after all?

Goodnight children, sleep well. *Evil laugh*

An evil laugh would really have capped this off, not very loud, but in the background at the end, just enough to make the hairs on the back of the neck stand on end.

WritersBlock responds:

Lol, nice story. The evil laugh is a good idea. I've got to remember that...

Great bassline

Set the tone for the whole song with a great layer of bass. I think it's always good to give the audience in a Jazz track the bassline first, so they know what sort of tempo to expect.

A nice counter melody with the high pitched keyboard - the middle part of that lead had a group of notes that seemed to trail down the scale a little too quickly, like a guy walking down a hill, who slips on a wet patch of grass and suddenly find himself at the bottom of said hill.

Thanks for your review man.

Maybe there are some off tempo notes in the lead that escaped me and Jurian, we´ll make it better next time. ;)

Good use of Sax

This sounded different to start with with what sounded like a little skatting in the background. When I listened more closely, I realised that it was the sounds of traffic, possibly as somone is coming into the bar from the city streets for a little warmth and comfort. However, when it got properly started, the whole song put together nicely, with great contributions from all the component parts.

The saxaphone was quite dominant when it came on, cutting through the rest of the tune and stealing the spotlight for a few moments, before stepping into the darkness and allowing the rest of the arrangement to carry on the momentum, while the player regains his breath.

Did you put all of this together on a computer, or did you use a keyboard to play each piece and change the instruments accordingly?

One or two duff notes that I heard on the third pass, but they are barely perceptible and nobody's perfect, are they?

Jurian responds:

I use a keyboard to record all this, then I put different instruments on it. Thanks for your long review.

Soothing

This is such a nice song, that I'd decided to add it to my list of favourites. It's just the sort of tune I need to put a smile on my face and it certainly helps me to unwind... that is until I switch back to reality and play some hard rock, while playing my games :P

Quite mellow and well mixed, with the strings in the background, and the subtle backing of the percussion. I'm running out of superlatives to try and describe this piece. A good length piece, with the artist's fingers taking a more than generous walk over the keys in a bit of free-form at the end. Looped round nicely.

1 change I'd make - about three quarters of the way through, why don't you stop the background music and focus the attention on the piano. A solo would blow the mind and be a truly amazing addition.

Jurian responds:

For me it feels like piano stuff with stuff around it so, maybe that's because I play piano, I understand what you mean, but yeah:p never thought about it like that.

You know, I stopped shaving to think of something to write here. That worked out well.
