[[ALKA] I Want To Fucking Drop]

God Damn it

You almost had it. Or you almost had me there.

I like that tuba and the horns, wanna have some dopey fun. You took enough time resonating to build up for the next change and then you do another short build up?
For that vocal sample?

The symbal crashes and for an instant the bass and beat and horns, they're in the right place. But the bass wanders on the wrong notes. It doesn't fit altogether. I really want it to. Its nearly there.

LiNaK37 responds:

Normally I would track down and violently murder anybody that gives me a 7, but I'll let it slide because it seems like you've been gone for a while. Welcome back!

[[AN] Arrival (Dubstep)]

I'm in it

The Hate: it builds up to the main chorus of sound and basically stays there, no more change.

The Love: The whole thing. The sounds hit me in the right place. The main lead has the tones I want to hear and like in many songs its the part I don't want to end or
change, so I just contradicted myself from what I said in the The Hate part.

You say its built off of somebody else's shit, how much? I don't have the time right now to look through all his stuff to find which one but, I'll give you the credit for it, cuz it makes me feel gooooey.

LiNaK37 responds:

Well the 2-step beat and the melody at the start were ideas of his. Thanks for the review!

[[Buyj3llo] - 5(j)]

Ha, it does

You can easily confuse the two. Only the tempo gave me a clue until :08 but then I'm still thinking remix. Good tune to emulate because that arpeggiated synth is like hypnosis.
There is enough of you in it to call it your own.

buyj3llo responds:

Thankyou for the review.
In retrospect, I don't really like this one. It feels kind of one note to me. I wish I would have put a little bit more variety in here. I was just too enamored with the sound and I let it play over and over.

[In An Instant, Maybe, Okay]

I don't get it...

This is a present time tune but I think it made up a new old memory for me.

Its like I'm 8 or 9, I'm vacationing with my family on a beach in late June. Its fucking gorgeous out but, I'm really looking forward to the night time, we eat pizza and drink pop, and me and my brother play Metroid.
Too bad that never happened.

When flash isnt fucking up, its a great loop.

NKAT responds:

You are the best, better than the rest. Let us make such dreams and fantasies come true, we are so close! I will not put out for you but I will give you 1 degree lower than that! Take it or leave it, and you know this maaaaaan....

[It is All Going To Be Okay]

Simple.................

Fucking arcades before the tech in home consoles made them irrelevant. Done. Also, there is an intricacy in it that I've yet to find in my own tunage.

NKAT responds:

Hey pk let us play some games. Wanna hang out?

[Aids or Abortion]

DR AIDS, deliverer of abortions

Your story = homerun. I've got 80% less friends because of the truth.

Music = Classic NKAT. I want to describe it in my own words... I can't. It's you. I'm loving how you mixed it. And I'm loving the uneasy jubilation. Hurt meh

NKAT responds:

Jubilee Marvel at my synth skillz. I do thank you for your info on EQing email. You are my best Father figure.

[Chasing Nightmares]

Didn't want to like it

... then I picture a 2d beat'um up for the Genesis. Punch - Ay.

ZLEAP responds:

Yeah I kind of see myself as an ugly byproduct of the nineties. Sega was my shit by the way.

[Suck Mine Or Yours]

I'm Glad ur alive

Let me give you my negative, 1:42 - I didn't feel like that after all of the sounds that came before it. I'm not saying its out of place, it obviously fits you and that's who this is for, right? OK, fuck me, then.

The sounds you chose are crispity munch. I like that "oohuuuh" groove plus the "menemenemene" thats paired into it. When parts like 1:07/1:20 come in, that kick walk up, I'm in love. Love that sound. More of that please, you absentee buffoon.

NKAT responds:

hey PK whats up man. ty for the review. 1:42 WILL be drrty, very drrty when I have my way with him/her - do not worry. How is life. Are you dieing yet?

[[Buyj3llo] - 20(s)]

I'm a bit entranced

Really enjoy the percussion and where you placed your sounds. I like to close my eyes when I listen to music so the sounds can find their places in my head, this has got a nice landscape.
What it feels like is I'm in the back of an old Escort, waking up from a Benadryl sleep, and I can't remember if I'm going to party or if I'm going home.

buyj3llo responds:

lol, wow. Thanks.
I'm glad that triggered some sort of story in your mind. Thats very flattering.

[_-_-_StupidGirl_-_-_]

Let me tell you...

...your story hit me right in the blood pumper. Well, kinda. Cuz you can get a lot out of the idiots, like money and hand jobs on Ferris wheels. Which is the vibe I get from this tune. Carnival copulation from a girl you kinda don't really like but, hey, it's almost entirely free.

I like this compressed sound but at the 1:00 mark, I wish there was more clarity. I get lost for a few seconds because the clicks and pops throw me off the music.

Fun.

simienthewhale responds:

yeap. the break in the music happened a little because I start with just recording a long track of myself playing the drums to no music whatsoever. then, one track at a time, the song takes shape. so sometimes when i'm just playing drums to nothing, tempo problems may and often do occur. so i made this one about 2 years ago when i had less experience doing that, and i tried to just play it off. well, time to step it up i guess

adios
