DJ Jester - Power Of Sound

"It's pretty good"

date: August 4, 2009

It sounds pretty catchy. I think you need to explore more scales and try chord progressions too. A lot of your music is simple beats attatched to simple scales, which gets you high scores. But if you want recodnizably better music, you can go deeper.

Crack the Beat

"Very fast tempo"

submission: Crack the Beat
date: August 4, 2009

1. Too loud for me personally. When it starts up I have to turn the speakers down.
2. The sounds at the beginning are not attractive to the ears. Try changing to something less loud and spontanious.
3. Tempo is too fast. Anything longer than a 16th note makes it sound off tempo, and anything faster makes it seem like it's going too fast. Slow down the tempo.

Turn this into either a 3 or so minute song, or shorten it up, keep a riff or two, and make it slower and more appealing would be my recommendations.

Way Of Life (Demo)

"Needs improvemen, but, it's a demo"

submission: Way Of Life (Demo)
date: August 4, 2009

Whether it is computer generated, or you just make it sound like that, it makes the song seem a lot less appealing.

It seems like a remix of video game music.

1. i'd recommend redoing the song, and trying to get a more classical backing symphony part, rather than a generic oe.
2. Repition is in music as it is in literature, it's a useful tecnique but used to much it makes something seem bland. Chance keys, maybe even tunings. Experimentation is the way to get yourself out of holes musically.
3. Try to put more lengh on notes, and if you are doing everything off the computer, change the sound makers. Change how the guitars sound. Overdriven doesn't sound so good when it's done for an entire song.

Platonic

"Pronunciate more"

submission: Platonic
date: August 4, 2009

Without putting emphasis on different words and parts of words, it's just like talking to backround music. You need to sing soulfully, not just sing like you are reading off a sheet of paper.

Guitar was good, but not as good as you can do.

EverydayIHavetheBlues (fixed)

"Great recording"

date: August 4, 2009

Much better than your past recording of the song. The vocals are a lot better in tune with the song.

1. Don't sing too loud in some parts, blues is a mellow feel feel, and you usually need to change the volume in studio on the computer when you do sing louder.
2. The blues fall isn't a change in tempo, so keep the tempo.
3. Try to keep guitar parts to short bursts not interrupting vocals.

Everyday I have the Blues

"Descent"

date: August 4, 2009

Your white noise problem is already fixed based on what i've heard with your other recordings, so what I can say that will help is to try recording voice and guitar seperate.

It gets a better sound. But if you want that delta blues style, you either have to deal with lots of whitenoise, or get really good equipment.

Hendrix Tribute

"Pretty good"

submission: Hendrix Tribute
date: August 4, 2009

It sounds pretty good. Effects and even practice can't really amount to Jimi's soulful playing, but tributes are good. Atleast it shows people still enjoy his music.

Try making sure you change how loud you are on certain parts, exagerate certain notes; it helps get a better sound in all.

BlackMixed

"Pretty good"

submission: BlackMixed
date: July 28, 2009

I would have liked it better if the melody changed, and if it wasn't repeated as much. It becomes a lot easier if you just made the verses longer.

Remember, theres not much point in making a long bridge if it's just connecting two tiny parts.

Serapole Program

"Good Loop"

submission: Serapole Program
date: July 28, 2009

I think it was pretty good, but i'd recommend putting more emphesis upon the starts and finishes of bars. It gives a lot more command to the song; but for a test this was good.

Cracked

"Synth away"

submission: Cracked
date: July 28, 2009

The beginning like 5 seconds is good, if you could up the volume on the melody there and take out the synth I think it would sound better.

Author's Response:

well see, i synthed nearly everything in this song. could you be more specific? is it the fading ambient noise, or the...semi orchestral organ....or the drum beat that is the problem?
