WIZ-zee-wig responds:

lol thanks! you know, the songs I upload here aren't my bests.. they're more like experiments and tests.. but I guess I'm on the right way with this one. ;)

[DJ Runaway - Hello World]

Hmm...

All the synths and, well, every sound I heard was unique sounding, so cool!
Hmm.. The melody rocked pretty damn hard and drove a lot of the feeling in the song.
Umm.. pretty shweet bassline maybe a tad more overpowering would make it even cooler xD but thats just my opinion xD
If you could call that a "saw" section of the melody, it would be the most awesome saw melody ever anywhere anytime, plus the crickets rocked my socks pretty hard too. It was all like wow and oooh!
See if you can find a different buildup for the changeovers than the snare uzi xD a little variation there goes a long way for me xD.
Hmm.. I think, Cool., will suffice. xD

Enjoy!

[DJ Runaway - Together]

Hmm..

Gah!!!!! The skitterings are off like crazy(or are they?)!!! did you set back the (attack? is that it?) on the sound? anyway Aaaa! It was crazy distracting for me in the beginning of the song and faded as the song went on so it isnt a huge problem at all.
Hmm the rest of the song was pretty cool, the piano was a little hard to blend with the techno/trance feel but you made it work pretty well lso gratz!
Umm... the changeover to the saw(I think) was a little abrupt but thats cool too, I dunno xD It was a pretty tight song.
Hmm.. The melody after the first "saw" part was excellent.

Enjoy!
-Jim

[DJ Runaway - You Know It]

Hmm..

Overall I liked it a bunch, but it was a little repetitive, which is fine xD but earlier in the song I think it would be cool of the transfers from section to section would be a little faster. If you have this saved somewhere... xD drop the main melody "beeping" like.... 3 octaves and lemme know if it cracks windows. For me it was a little dry in the bass department but it had a great melody and it synched pretty damn well.

Lovely sheit
Enjoy!
-Jim

[DJ Runaway - Acid Stab]

Hmm..

I, rather simply, loved that song. Can you please send me a copy of it some time so I can go to the gvt building and get a marriage certificate?
This song, nearly(sorry) perfectly incorporates, basically all I love about techno. It has an excellent bassline that rolls and flows well with the song acting as powerful undertone that you even let take over the song at certain points, GJ!!!!
It also has quite a few excellent fx's such as that saw... you did amazingly making the melody and the bassline cooperate to make this song flow.
I also really enjoyed the calmer parts, they really enhanced the songs "power" to rise and fall and draws attention to the... empowering? feeling of the song's melody.
The "hits", drum bursts and semiconstant beat, also had a seemingly strong connection to the flow of the song.
Hmm... umm... Oh the reverb(?) added a lot of depth if that was what you used, it made everything, basically, unite in a way.
Uh... I think I might maybe possibly have heard a little distortion, I could be crazy..

So basically, amazing song, wow.
Enjoy!

-Jim

P.S. I could review more lemme know if you want me to.. I dunno if you use them or anything xD

DJRunaway responds:

Wow... That touched my heart man :D I'm a bassist and I really did my best on the bassline... And indeed, it's possible you heard some distortion :) I added some at certain parts to give the song some overdrive :) I really love your reviewing style, really, so if you'de like to review some more... Please :)! "Together", "You Know It" and "Hello World" are some newer, better songs... *hint hint hint* ;)

Greetz,
Runaway

[DJ Runaway - The Feeling]

Omfg wtf oooooo

This song would sound so amazing in my car, its like literally tuned to this type of music. I think it would break my left side mirror off the car tho......... It was a tad on the repetitive side and I think you should have carried the original bassline longer and stronger throughout the song. Otherwise it was damn good, with good variation and tune.
Time permitting I'd love your comments on my stuff, it looks like you really mastered this type of music creation and I would really LOVE your imput/help sometime xD.

Enjoy!
-Jim

DJRunaway responds:

Hahaha, thanks for the comments and suggestions man :) I realize it's a bit repetitive, but that's the flow man :) I will give some comments on your stuff soon (A bit busy with school and shit at the moment!) Thanks for the review!

Greetz,
Runaway

[X'Digital - Dark Time [Demo]]

Hmm

I liked the, ...rolling?... sound of the cymbals/crash, and the siren that was a pretty tight idea, cool song. Hmm, maybe a little more of that melody and it would be even more awesome..
Enjoy!

Draze responds:

lol, yeah that rolling thing was just some messing around with chopz. I'm glad yea liked it :)

And there'll be a lot more melo in the full version (if i ever get around to finishing this :P)

Cheers a bunch for all your reviews.

[X'Digital - X'Hale]

Flowed!

This song really flowed from section to section, I could hear the Bounc3 in it but I could also hear something else, which I would assume is you xD. Since I always feel a little constructive crit is needed.. I think it could have used Reverb with the high end cut off some to give it some depth. It was kinda odd sounding with the hardness mixed with pingy-grinding techno sound. *shrug* I liked it, Enjoy!!!

Draze responds:

Cool idea ;)

[X'Digital - Star Wars [ReMixx]]

Pretty neat

I liked the whole thing basically, and it was a bit hard to tell when the song was over... silly NG haha xD. Point being I honestly thought it sounded a bit hollow and could have used some low-end content. But thats just me, I <3 bass.

Cool song, neat effect!

Draze responds:

Hehe thx yeah i agree, this track peaks on my output ^_^

Cheers for the review dude!
