[how i feel when i'm sad]

whoooooooa

ive just realised ive had this on loop for 5 mins or so lol. anyways really chilling loop. take thetime to develop this man, it's got a few places it can go with a bit of time and effort that is. i know it aint your first avenue of music but it sounds pretty cool. aint got much to fault except that you should develop it/ 9/10 im gonna 5 this though cos its a pretty good loop.

pitters.

mhb responds:

thanx.

[to be with you cover]

it s a bit bad this

i can understand it's tongue in cheek, but come on man, you're far better than this. the levels are HORRIBLE, the vocals are really bad and let the tune down so much. the guitar that i can hear is good, but you've ruined it mate. i get it i really do, but really man, don't next time, just don't.

6/10

2/5

sorry mate

pitters

mhb responds:

hahahahahaha. i'm sorry man i just had to 'cause the tune is so funny. just the thought of those guys in mr. big singin' this and tryin' ta be serious is hilarious. sorry man i just had to.

Ace mate

a bit of oldskool riffage goin on here mate. it brought back a few memories anyways. fucking cool game to cover. your balance is just about right, though when you have the bass drum going rapid fire your lead gets a bit swallowed, it still retains its clarity but just feels the drums is over whelming it. anyways 9/10 another 4/5

pitters

mhb responds:

thanx man. i appreciate that fact that you're pointin' out some shit that's a bit fucked with it. it's always Good to know what other people can hear especially musicians.

[sands of hate]

nice tune short stuff

just listening to your tune as i type this, it's a pretty cool track, though not much goes on compared to your other stuff, maybe thats an intentional restraint though. it's a good loop mind.

the lead is nice and the rhytnm behind plus that synth are all good, i just don't think the tone of the lead is as smooth as it could be, it's 'screechin' more then i feel it should really, maybe accentuate the lower register to make it fit a bit more. it's all good though. i mean i can't do this stuff. anyways it's 9/10 and 4/5 but if 4.5's were done thats what it would get.

peace out

pitters

mhb responds:

thanks man. i'm glad somebody commented about the "synth". the only synth on that track is the bass and drums. everything else is guitar. the heavy riff is guitar, the lead is guitar, and the part that sounds like a synth is guitar. and yeah this track is crap compared to my other stuff but i wanted to try a different approach at somethin' that i had in my head. glad that it wasn't too bad. :-P

[The adventures of M'bnoemnoem]

Not my cup of tea but....

Everything is really gud on this, i love the squelchy synth, a proper throw back to analogue, lots of stuff going on withou anything cluttering the mix, the supporting melody lines are cool and the backing makes for great listening. I don't like that panpipey flute that leads the track tho, tho thats a minor complaint. If that were took away i think you could do a nice remix with this.

anyways keep it up, love hearing your stuff, totally different and really 'outthere'

WinTang responds:

I gotta admit, the "panpipey flute" (as you very well put it) is intended to sound a bit corny, and I do not blame you at all for disliking it. I think its melody is pretty crucial for keeping the song interesting though. It's something to ponder - I may get rid of it and replace it with I dunno. Guitar even, maybe.
I'm glad you like my stuff so, because now I can say "there's this guy named pitters and we totally dig each other's music". Or something.

[Dreaming in Black]

nice one son

not bad again mate, this is the first time ive listene to your stuff and its really nice stuff, one things thats missing from here tho is a really pounding beat, it would help this tune soooooooo much.

curriemaster responds:

This tune definitely need some pumping beats. And I think you are just the man to doooo it! Its a pretty boring tune to be fair, I need to enliven it somehow...

Cheers for the review chief.

[Attack of Megalomania]

cool tune

really nice acoustics ther mate, reminded abit of jose gonzalez, nice short and sweet, i think its just missing a vocal really, keep it up

curriemaster responds:

Hehe cheers mate,

Twas done in DADF#BE just like ole Jose! It definitely needs some vocals but unfortunately my voice sounds like a donkey with a thistle up his ass.

Cheers for the review!

[Rucklo - Dratsabgnik]

Shit hot my friend

quite plain and simply, fucking love your stuff man, and i love you too, its a cool lil bouncer mate, i love the tom/snare rhythm, the arrangement's cool as well, nothing stays in too long or too short just the right balance. im curious as to where your scratchings gone on it tho lol i think it may have work, but the beat layerings cool, how many you got running there? is it two or three?

anyhows, got my download the other day i forgot to review, you also get a fifen innit.

keep it up rucklo

Rucklo responds:

Hello, dear! :)
Gah I listened to the snare and just realised there´s a eq-clash at 1/8 of the snare hits. bollox.
There were supposed to be skratching on here, but it just didn´t fit.
I attempted a cool techniques using my CDX+Mixer that turned out to be not so cool for this song (i´ll use that super-secret skratch-recording technique on some other song :). I also found out that there really was no room for skratching, it just idn´t sound right, so I skipped that this time. Next song will be more sample-based, cut n slice+skratching. I hope. :)

The beat is layered, I think there are 2 kicks, eq to go fine with the subbass (but the subbass kinda fukced up, and i couldnt fix it) 2 snares, one hihat, 2 tambourine samples, three for the bongo-thingy... uuuh, probably something more, I cant remember. But I dont think I layered anything more than twise, to be honest. Loads of EQ on the beat to make every sample clear in the mix.

Well thanx alot for score and review, mate!! I´m gonna have to ravage your account one day :)

great tune

yea man, i loved this. that synth bell thing is damn quirky but i love it, drums are chilling, i loved this track to be honest.

you ever listened to ian brown 'unfinished monkey buisness'? you may find similarites which is a good thing in my book. dman 5/5 again.

LJCoffee responds:

I'll have to check out Ian Brown then.

I dug the "quirky bell" too - it's thought a detuned instrument with a few LFO's to give that warped vinyl feel would add exactly what I was looking for to this. Thanks!

[Gentle Rage]

tune mate

really good choon ljc, i love dark heavy beats andthis is just about what the doctor ordered, feels like theres been a lot of emotionput into this, and theres a feel of hope and euphoria within the darkness. i think the only thing its missing is a vocal, a female one strangely enough, with proper angst. but great job, keep it up. 5/5

LJCoffee responds:

Wow - slipped by - I didn't even notice the review until now.

I originally had an idea about using this track to make an animation - I still might.

Thank you for the review!
