[The Common Bedroom]

I'm flattered that you liked my track seven circles, but you really should have asked before you completely ripped it off. or at least listed my as inspiration for the track. its a pretty irregular chord progression, this can't have been an accident.

SoulSecure responds:

Lol what? Mate, this song was inspired by lounge music in general, it's what I talked to you about in PMs. You inspired me on finding a rhodes/wurlitzer VST, because I hadn't taken the initiative to find one before. This is a very average progression and I have a couple of unfinished (trash) songs that sound annoyingly similar.

Anyway, just had a listen at seven circles and it is totally the same exact same friggan chords. I did not consciously 'rip you off', but our songs do sound different in the end.

[Mechatron]

shit this is good, i loved the lead synth too the vocals sounded pretty good with the effects you put on it. the arrangement was good too, you built up a great anticipation to the drop and the drop itself had some pretty good riffs in it as well, for me the kick drum sounded a little weak and clicky but that could be fattened up with some eq and maybe just doubling the track up, and the drop itself was a little short for how good it was as well. all in all this was a good track and i wish i was this good when i was fourteen, hell i wish i was this good now haha
good work, definitely make more dubstep

[7 and Four]

can't beat 7/4 time it has so much more bounce than most other time sigs

Beartheshadows responds:

Agreed. I'm not too familiar with it, hence this song. I still love 4/4. It's so natural and 6/ has such a groove to it.

[Pass The Class]

i like the tone you have going on here, and also this song is definitely grunge. there is more to grunge than just nirvana -_- its got a funky alt rock l7 feel to it, because grunge music can be happy too...

[Supposed To Know]

demo? -_-
really?
how much better do you want it?
and i dig,
sounds like something off bleach or you could slow it down and have a melvins track haha

[Food & Drug (Demo)]

the chord progression here is great i particularly enjoy the phrasing of the chords
im feeling a pixies or a toadies vibe from this as well and thats always a good sign
i wouldn't say its poppy its just a little too upbeat to be straight grunge id say its leaning towards alternate rather than grunge, who cares what genre it is, its a good song either way
five starts for saying giggedy

Gunshy responds:

*thumbs up* Thanks!

[Bytestep]

i'v never heard of chipstep in my life and thought it would be awful to be honest
but this is brilliant, its really upbeat and bouncy, and i dont find it repeative at all
the tempo change at 2:00 minutes is pretty rough but tempo changes can be a a nightmare i know
and the drum and bassy part afterwards is well worth it
this is really impressive

conorstrejcek responds:

Thanks for the review!

I just heard about chipstep for the first time a couple weeks ago, so I'm glad you like my take on it. I'll try to work on my tempo changes more in the future, I did it pretty quickly so hopefully I'll improve for next time.

Thanks again!

[Nonexistance]

could use a better mix
the guitars sound a bit far away and dissonant
your vocals are pretty good but its hard to hear them properly
this song could be really really good with a better mix

[Tornado]

holy shit that shredding
i like the synths you have going on in there as well its nice to hear a touch of something different in metal every once in a while
im not too keen on the synth string your using at 1:20 in they kind of lacked in quality compared to the rest of your mix, but thats nothing
some great guitar work here man
