[My Ideo of Hell]

\m/

Now that's something I like. This creates a very dense atmosphere. Very industrial and indeed very "hell like".

I really like the voices moaning towards the end of the track. Now, if only this would loop a bit better, you'd have one hell of a track! ( no pun intended ^^)

[Robot Sound Effect: 2]

\m/

As I've already written in "Robot Sound Effect: 1" it would be much better to submit a nice collection of various "robot sounds" in a single file. Of course with some pauses between the single effects to make it easier to just take the sound one likes best.

Hmm... k.

[My Guitar - Modified]

\m/

This is way too much distorted and the pitch is too high, too. This all leads to a very bad sound quality, limiting the usefullness of this submission for flash artists very much.

Turn the distortion down and don't record the guitar that loud. That way you should get a much better sound quality.

Kk.

[Robot Sound Effect: 1]

\m/

It's way too short to be really useful. SoundFX are all nice and stuff, but I think if you had put in some more "robot effects" this would be of more help to a flash artist.

One single sound only has a small chance of being used, but if you'd manage to submit a whole "collection" of robot sound effects I think that people could simply download and alter it to their needs. I can think of robot voices, some "metallic movements" (as in the metallic "clank" when a robot walks, etc.).

With this single sound, artists don't have much choice.. either use it or don't use it. With some more sounds the chance that an author might use some of them is much higher.

I'm sure I'll get some sources.

[Gothclawz Beat]

\m/

I have to say that I didn't like that one. Sounds as if I don't tune in a radio station on my radio somehow... but maybe it can be used just as that in a flash.

But to me it seems as if very little effort was put into this submission. It's very short and not very entertaining, to say the least...

The good thing about this is that it loops just perfectly.

That deserves more than a '1' surely D:<

[Squirrel Hum]

\m/

Heh, now that is something new here... doesn't know what to think of that to be honest.

I think I'll give out an extra point for originality, as I've never heard something like that before in the AP ^^.

But sadly the sound quality is a bit too low so that this loop isn't very likely to be used in a "squirrel based" flash movie.
Then it is a bit short and too unvaried or else one could have altered it to get various SFX for "squirrels".

Try to make it longer and.. um... get the squirrel to hum in more variations ^^.

[<Me & the expression of me>]

\m/

Hm, doesn't happen much here... but it really sounds interesting. I think this is a good background track for a menu in a "psycho game" (like Silent Hill for example) as it sounds really unpleasend and it makes one feel uncomfortable. Perfect for those kind of games :D .

Resident evil themed more like.

[Adrenaline*]

Very nice track and different from your other songs I already listened to.

It's a perfect background music, as the track creates a very tense atmosphere.

The mixing and the melody of this track are just great, keep it up! :)

I love your tracks. Have I told you that before? If not, I just did :P .

The way you manage to create that relaxing atmosphere that seems to dominate all of your songs (at least those I have been listening to) is just amazing.
Also your improvisations are very good and they fit well into the songs.

[(djzafer)- Girls Dance Trance]

\m/

Sounds very much like EBM/Gothic to me. There's nothing wrong with that but somehow I am not able to see the "pattern" here. Everything seems to be thrown together at random.
Really, I can't figure out a main theme in this track... you should try to create a good beat with a catchy hookline and then stick to that.
You then can bring in more varetiy by trying to alter that "main theme".
