Creo is at the top of the charts, with a very unique sound.
Never fails to impress the h e c c out of me.
wonderful job, as always, Creo!
5/5 - 10/10. totally listening again (and again and again...)

[[NEWGROUNDS MEGACOLLAB] End of an Era]

XDD
loved teh songg!!
I love how it's more cheerful than alot of your more recent songs :DD
goodness listened to this quite a few times XD
wonderful job, as usual, 5 stars :DD

[Am i in your mind?]

Most of this track agrees with me, the roughly 30 second intro was good, all the drum fills were classic trance, on par.
I am a sucker for good bridges, and yours did not let me down!
The second build was great, quite a bit longer than maybe expected, but not bad.
the atmosphere is good in this piece.
The one thing I have to say isn't on point is the hats... They are spot on, in the drop, but definitely need to be remastered for different parts of the song, i.e. intro. The open hat is too... inyourface... it's also pretty dry.
The kick hits hard enough, and the clapsnare does it justice.
Nice dance track.
I like the arp, and what it adds!
I listened to the original version, and this is mixed and mastered a lot better.
4.5/5 - 9/10, Nice job, minor critiques, as above mentioned.

SASKID responds:

Really appreciate you comparing it with the original, also thank you very much for the kind words.

I do agree with the hi-hats. Didn't think too much of it, but with my mastering equipment they were kind of drowned out by the bass which I wanted anyway, I really wanted the low-end to take over the rest of the song. Points for future reference though, appreciate the honesty.

[Felix Zophar - Drift (read desc...)]

Maybe the drums/beat is slightly in your face in respect to the song... besides that, great job!
I like the chill vibe, you pulled it off nicely :)

FelixZophar responds:

Yeah thanks! I could have fixed that if it wasn't for my brother...

[Do I hear DRUMS]

😍😍
Grooveeyyyy!!!
Love how simple this is... how it's only the drums... however... it needs no more...
Love how this solely depends on rhythm. :)
5/5 - 10/10! :DD

RealBlargMaster responds:

I mean, there are a few FX that I added in but I'd say they don't count as instruments. But it does get boring after a while.

[700 18]

Your guitar inspires me so much ngl...
one of these days imma record sum... hopefully :P
love the emotion you pour into your pieces... I can feel it :)
Amazing.
Gah I'm a sucker for guitar what can I say XD
Deffs 5/5 - 10/10, as usual... only cause I can't go higher ;-;
Where do you record, and what do you use?
Like if I was going to record meh guitar... just wondreing if you had any tips? :D

KrinnValKhristi responds:

Welp... let's see...My first piece of advice is:

You will want to research something called "Gain staging". THIS IS TRE IMPORTANTE... I would nae recommend doing dis without dis.

What it means essentially is, you want to have a very low signal coming in; for a computer maybe -12db on the track.

Depending on how you record your guitar, this can vary greatly.

This purrrrticular song was done DI or "Direct In". I just plugged me strat into me splat, and den dare I was. (splat means interface)

If you do DI, I would recommend Poulin plugin for your Amp modeler, and then you can use W/E ye want fur your cabinet modeler. I use Guitar Rig 5. (The stock plugins suck, but it works for a cab modeler)

There is ANOTHER WAY!!! And I have used it too.

I use what they call an "attenuator". It is fancy word for something that lets you use high voltage amps with yoru interface so it does not burn it out.

You can't put 100 watts into an interface, THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER! ROFL

Oh, and don't spill koolaid in your tube amp.

This Attenuator will allow you to get A REAL amp sound into your DAW.

It has worked great for me.

I hope that helps. ^_^

[mid life crisis]

Wow deffs 5 stars.
