[Digital]

If I hear that crowd cheering FX again, I'll slap someone in the kidney. (sorry, personal bias against that certain FX)

- Anyway, you should at least add a bit of delay or reverb to that crowd FX to make it sound more natural.
- That pop bass feels awfully out of tune.
- That rhythm gets pretty repetitive if you keep it going for too long. Throw in a different rhythm to shake things up. Same thing goes to the drums (throw in a random break or something).
- No breakdowns? Aw, man.

TL;DR
It a nice track, but gets really repetitive past the first minute.

[Vanadium]

Yo.

- The intro: you might wanna save that wobbles for the drop.Also, lower the volume of that riser from the intro a bit.
- I love that melody.
- The part at 1:18, try replacing that clap-snare thing with just a clap.
- Them drums sound real crispy. Nicely done.
- About way through the track (around 2:07), it feels a bit hollow. Try throwing in a sub bass.
- The outro: give about a few beats worth of silence before letting the strings in.

[Keep Calm]

What's up. For simplicity's sake, lets just call it DnB. :P

- Okay, the strings has way too much tail on it (it feels like every note is being dragged). Get that sorted.
- The drums is really weak (volume wise and sound quality wise). Try layering several kicks/snares to make it...uh, less weak and give it some increase in volume.
- Interesting string melody. Could try having a little bit of variation.

TL;DR
The strings evoke a strange feeling (I'd describe it if I didn't have a shit vocabulary), but the sound quality of the strings wrecks that. Lower the volume of the strings, and increase the volume of the other elements (like the kick and snare, particularly).

Aphoryze responds:

I guess you have some fair points there. I do agree that the drums are quite weak, especially the kick but those should be better in my upcoming songs.

[Drum and Bass - L00p]

Yo.

- dem uplifting chords
- Lacks bass. Like, a sub bass. Or a Reese bass.
- FL STOCK HI HATS. That's a no no.
- The melody could use some variation. Same goes to the drums.

TL;DR
Nice loop, but a couple of variations here and there wouldn't hurt. Also, really sorry for the short review (I'm terrible at elaborating stuff).

De4dl0ck responds:

np, thanks for the review :D

[The Hell Monster.]

Ooookay. One hell of track, I'll say.

- Drums are drowned throughout the whole track (with the exception towards the end since there are less synth parts). It's probably because the synths are too loud.
- The quality of the synths are top notch. Well done.
- Crazy ass melody you have there.
- I don't know what the hell's going on during 1:00 till 1:23. Probably should've let the wobbles have a break.

TL;DR
If you intended to make the filthiest track possible, you've done it. During the segue (1:00 till 1:23), give the wobbles a break and let the listener pull his/her shit together. Hell, let the sub bass handle the segue or something. Also, go easy on the loudness, man.

martin-wales responds:

spot on mate, thank you. I did mention the drums in the comments. had to spit the tune in two and import a wav to continue it so when the drums get better towards the end it's because I remade them. but well noticed my friend. but yeah it is a bit load. it broke my head trying to sort the levels in this track and they are still well off.lol but anyways man check back in a weeks time im gonna do another one following the same style hopefully I'll have it mastered a bit better. :D cheers for your awesome and informative review good sir. :D

[Espiritus Malignos]

Hello!

- Freaky chewy melody, nice.
- Stock FL drums are a no-no. The drums could also use some hi-hats.
- The wobble feels too "thin". Try EQing the lower frequencies.
- I feel like the whole song lacks a bassline. Not the "WAAAHAHASDHKAHDF" kind of bass. Like a sub bass or something like the sort.
- The part from 3:27 till 3:42 is sorta messy and disorganized.

Cimba responds:

I really appreciate your review!
