SUGGESTION SECTION:

Your songs are too skeletal.

Put more work into your music.

Try adding more of a melody, nothing fancy, just something to jam too, you know?

I dont know what kind of program you're using, but you either need a new one, or use different instruments here. I think that could help a ton.

Dont be afraid to get out there and blast your drums and bass.

Take more time to perfect your "sh1t."

PRAISE STATION:

The beat kept me moving- good work with that.

The main riff you had here was catchy, had my legs moving quite a bit.

Great to listen to.

FINAL WORD: I hope this review helps for future submissions. Nice work on this, but you have quite a few things to work out.

Good: Nice smoothness and mood, and its a good catchy tune. I really liked the trumpet here. I also play the trumpet in my band.

Bad: It seemed at times the instruments didnt really match. Did you record most things using a metronome at the same time? Because that would help. The bass was okay, not exceptional. The drum sounded messy at times. The trumpet sometimes went off a bit, but thats what happens with live recording. It was a little too subtle, like the intensity of the last few notes was perfect. You should have used that bit of intensity throughout the entire song, to give it a bit more of a upbeat feel. Because in order for the song to be lazy and slow, you need more instruments than you did. I understand that this is for a 3 instrument challenge, but you can do more than that with 3 instruments and a drum.

Not bad though.

sorohanro responds:

Thank you for review.
About rhythm... well, what you might call messy is in fact the Latin way of arranging rhythm, accents don't fall on he first beat but on the last half of the 4-th beat, so the drums seem to go ahead the melody. That is what make people dance (I mean Salsa).

The recording is not made only using a metronome, in fact most of the track is sequenced.
Well, I suggest the you listen to some more Latin music (I recommend Michel Camilo, Arturo Sandoval and Paquito D'Rivera).
Hope you'll like more some of my other tracks ;)

[Legend Of Zelda: The Remix]

Ok job, needs improvement.

Melody: 1/2-for a legendary song, you messed up the main riff pretty bad. I automatically have to dock points off.
Beat: 2/2 - catchy and jamming'. Simple, but effective.
Base: 2/2-Big sound, like a club.
Effort: 1/2 - could have done a little more. It is way too skeletal here.
Drum: 0/2-was lacking to help the bass.
Listenability: 0/2-This song was overall hard to listen to.
Catchiness: 2/2-automatically Zelda is catchy. You didn't take away from that.
Mood: 2/2 - no comment
Instrument use: 0/2 - I didn't like the samples you used here at all.
Structure: 1/2-This song seems sloppily done. The intro could have just been one bar, and you could have raved the end part or a few more bars.
Smoothness: 1/2-It didn't flow as I thought it would.

OVERALL: I am very disappointed with this piece. This was definitely not your best work. I know you can do better. Work harder next time! 12/20

JohnnyFrizz responds:

Hahaha I bet you could have done it a lot better 3 years ago, right?
