[CKC - Someone You Lost]

This is really kick butt!

As soon as I heard the bass I thought-this would sound good in the car! I think the slow beat from the drums helps the fast piano become the title. After listening to the introduction and the the ending, I think that the ending should have an echo to the piano like it did in the beginning. The bass really backs up this awesome song (this is a good thing). A lot of people choose to add their bass far along their song-which is a mistake. Here, you have it throughout the majority of your song.

The ending landed smoothly, the transitions with the symbol & bass (ex:2:00) kept the song from being over repetitive, this is a good song for not having words because it gives the listener something else. He or she can put in the thoughts that they feel with your song. Very simple title that reflects the music. I think that this song is more love than hate.

Awesome dude, awesome. I am so a fan of CKC2009. 5, 10, faves. you should sell stuff-I might buy!

CKC2009 responds:

Yo thanks a lot bro hopfully *fingers crossed* il make it as quite a good figure in the hip hop world but i only start making music altogether only 3 months ago so woop woop ha ha

thanks man

[Apraxia]

sad but true

This is really boring. I kept thinking that the song was going somewhere, and that is why I decided to keep listening. You had me thinking that you were going to change the rhythm or construct a solo, but there was no such thing. It was ok-the upbeat and brass fit together, but again, there was no change. This reminds me of what I hum to myself at my boring job.

Sorry for the harsh criticism-this just isn't good enough to qualify for "exciting." Maybe that's why you named it apraxia-unable to make that change.

Irritating and repetitive....5/10.....3.

The bass

Ok i think the bass needs to be there the whole time, or at least a couple of seconds after the beginning. The repetitiveness of the synthesizer could be a good thing if the far-away echo sounds like something solid. Personally, I think the drums should have a little bit more of a punch... a deeper pitch. At the end of your song I noticed a change in the bass-like a different pattern. Keep that going, or at least make the pattern closer to the middle. Remember-good songs have beginnings, middles, and ends. Please don't make an end that doesn't land on a C-that is very very important.

NessbeatsFox is right-not bad for a WIP.

JebusAndTheHolyYoses responds:

thanks!
yeah I agree, the bass could be in there earlier.

and about the song's end... this is just a preview, it doesnt really have an ending yet. But yeah, thanks!

thanks for all of your advice!

[Land Locked (Pulse Remix)]

Wow

This is a sad song, but with great honor and respect, I would have to say this is the best of the month. The lyrics equally cooperate with the beat, it's catchy and fun to listen to, it's not overly repetitive like so many songs I've listened to, and I LOVE IT.

You get the benefits-10, 5, faves, WOM (word of mouth). I'm glad to see someone put words/lyrics in their work and having it turn out perfect because that's what a song is.

merlin responds:

Thank you so much for your review! I put a lot of work into this song, and was keeping my eye on its score very closely. Yesterday when I went to work it had a 4.46, and was in the top 5 or so on the techno page, and when I came home, it was at a 4.18, and I was freaking out... then I saw it was on the front page, and nearly soiled myself! Your words are too kind. I listened to the other songs on the best of the week, and I think my song belongs right where it is, out of those 5 songs, right at the bottom, heh. I'm glad you liked the lyrics, too! I think out of everything I've written, these are my favorite. Even if they are a year and a half old!

[Para - Smog Step Sanctuar]

mmm that sounds gooooooooodddddd

This is fucking awesome. I'm not going to say, "you could have made it longer" cause this is poifect. I'm totally loving it-this is my 2nd time listening to it. You've got an interesting talent here-I haven't heard anything like it before. OO it's playing for a third time!!! This would be good in movies. I'm adding this to my faves. 10/10 5/5 GJ

Koriigahn responds:

Hehe, thankyou for reviewing man! :):)

[Newgrounds On Speed]

Great loop... but

it's not as smooth as other loops I've heard. It's kind of overly repetitive.

JohnnyFrizz responds:

Fair enough.

[unfolding truth]

I agree with the guy below me

but I think you should make it at least 2 minutes...

kasumikyo666 responds:

im making a longer version now :]

[Ocean Sun]

cool, but why?

Why put this unfinished version on NG then?

HarvestThrone responds:

Because a friend of mine wanted to check it out and she doesn't support file transfering features...

[Sh!t in 8-bit]

loop

You didn't say anything about it being a loop. It's a damn good one!

ViceOfFire responds:

Heh thanks man, I appreciate it :D

Feel free to use it in any way if you have a use for it.

[CKC - Listen (FULL)]

good-

Now you just need a rapper right? I have a friend on NG-you can check out his work and see if you like his voice-I like his stuff. His name is Crosswinds. He did "Don't Blink."

The Listen thing isn't working all the way through the song-maybe if you did listen twice in the beginning and twice at the end or something like that. Keep the title of the song-its good. I like the little solo at the end there where you take the drums out and then put them back in-it sounds original... like a really good comeback.

Glad to see you took my advice-and I will help bring your song up to the top if you do. I don't know how far "we" can get it up there, but it's worth a shot right? If you try, at least they can't say you didn't even try. GL-I'm still here if you need advice, help, people...etc.

9/10 add lyrics & its a 10
lol

CKC2009 responds:
