Hey all - came in late on this thread but I gotta give big props to monkeybullman/kingbastard for the simple reason that he is very talented and yet seems quite humble. He's gotten some awesome reviews and most of his stuff is really great and yet he has still found time to review a few of my submissions and left me some positive and helpful comments. I'm quite flattered that someone who has been around as long as he, even bothered to take notice of a relatively new guy like myself...
Too many members seem a little to full of themselves... egomaniacal wanna-be dj/composer/artists that seem all too eager to cut others' music to shreds while submitting complete crap themselves. Probably the same guys who go through and vote zero on anything that currently has a higher score than their latest lame submission.

- But I digress -

Damn near all of the top artists -or whatever term you want to use- have already been mentioned and they are all really good at what they do but as I've stated - monkeybullman gets my vote!

wow, thanks man...

and as for me (and i'm not just trying to kiss ass), i'd say i completely agree with Gorebastard's list. and i'd definately have to add Xm4e and Gorebastard, of course.but unfortunately, i haven't been able to go through enough people's audio, cause i've got this lame dial up still.

You must be the only person on the planet that still uses Dial Up. Get broadband and upload more of your kick ass stuff!

i totally would, but i still live on base, and every thing sucks on base. no cell phone reception, no broadband, all that kind of crap.

...waaaitaminute i read that wrong... welcome back kingbastard! HahHAhaHAHhaHAHaAaAAa....

Btw, it looks like iv'e written that about myself, but it was written by ljcoffee and when i tried to reply with quote it didnt turn it to grey italics:)
Just in case any of u think i'm being a bighead:D

holy shit this dude needs way more attention....

dude that is one of the best songs ive heard (for its catagory which i consider more ambiant than trance) for real.

hes only got ONE review, and he has barely any reviews on any of his songs.

he needs to get noticed for real, check him out.

(not to mention he gets zero voted and noone makes up for it)
so i voted 5 on like half his songs lol

Dude

Audio Joint ?

Anyways, I'm close to be being mentioned. Probably a sliver of talent points off.

I think Apoplexia deserves some attention.
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/view.php?id=36242&sub=20286
I recommend checking out his trk 'Yakuza' and giving him the higher scores his music warrants.

I forgot about apoplexia, good good stuff.

I had to dig this thread out just for this person, because his song's were so professional.

I heard some music by a guy named scorpion132. He is in the Trance section mostly, and I was shocked by the qualty of his remix's. He remixes allready made Trance, but I checked for copies of the songs he made online and they are not stolen. He makes them sound so close to the original but puts small twists on them..if he focused on original trance music...wooooooo...its quite astounding what he has done especially in his [It's a Dream (REMIX #2)] song. So take a gander at this unknown artist....at least he looks unknown from the DL's his songs have.

I should probably post a link

I heard his songs, they had perfect professional quality. But, they seemed a bit to identical to the originals. Perhaps I'm parinoid but all the synths matching perfectly with the originals just seems a bit too perfect. Not gona say they are stolen but...it just seems so hard to be able to copy the synths from professional DJ's who make their music using expensive hardware and samples in addition to software without having the hardware and samples....I dont know :-/..not putting him down or calling hima theif, I repeat that, I just dont know what I think from what I heard when I compaired his songs with the real ones.

I think you're right MrMcPooner. I used Audacity to chop the song up to the exact peopnt and when II heard the song again and it appeared his (Remix) started at a mid point in the song and it's the same other than a few fluxuations in speed and sound. I compaired it with another song also and got similar results. Pitty he didn't make them from scratch but rather edited the originals. I shouldn't have let myself believe someone could mimic the real synths to such a perfection used by professionals. Oh well, at least it sounds good and got me to hear the originals his (Remix's) which kick ass (so props for that lol)...especially the song Echoes from Alaska by Bubble Fish wooooooow, its so good....hope I can do songs like that one day :)

He said in his Come With Me (ReMiX) review that he did it all "meaning he didn't mess with the origina;" sooo I don't know what to believe anymore. I'm not gona nag him anymore, it just seems impossible to mimic the synths, drums and filter effects perfectly and all that without even using a midi for note purposes. If he actually did redo these to the extent I heard he should allready be a payed professional trance/techno musician with mulitple albums out. Not posting music on NG. Bleh I'm out.

I wouldn't say imposible, if you have the proper sortware that the pro's use, than you can pretty much re-create any synth that you've ever heard. Mind you, you'd still be able to tell the slight differences due to the mastering, EQ'ing, and compressing, so at that, you'd have to know the exact levels in order to have the same quality in the mix, but the sounds themselves can be recreated. Tis a shame if he did just rip it off, :( some people will do anything to feel big...

Then i must be deaf :S...since the only thing i notice thats different in most of them is that "IMO" annoying time stretching...

well if that is the case, than he is ripping off people's music, which is illegal, so blam his ass if thats all he's gonna do.

sorry for the double post...

but yea, Scorpion123 is nothing but a thief, all of the ones I've listened to have just been recorded using Atomix Dj Mixer, which allows you to change the speed as it playes, add a filter, flange it, make it skip, and a few other little effects like that. So if you're against him doing this to other people's work, report him. There's no place for people who steal other people's work and post it saying they did it themselves. There was a similar problem before on here, I was skimming through and someone posted Benni Benassi's "Satisfaction" and played it off as their own.

It's the things like this that really steams me up, while all the true artists have to sit down for hours and work on shit. . .

Anyways, do or dont, I'm just saying that he's gettin off by stealin other people's work, you decide what you want to do.

I'm am the best in hiphop/rap and rnb handz down I gave respect to other artists like pandora taquil pie pie
kingbastard
they are good composers
I'm not here to say who's better I'm just sayin theses artists are good regardless on wut type of music they produce

those are my favs

and in my opinion best composers

not to dis anyones music

At least you knew the program he used was Atomix DJ Mixer, I knew it was some sort of program like that.

I said this to my first review to him after the first song I heard of his.

Great job, but what programs/plugins did you use in this song...Reason 3.0 or Cubase SX or a VSTi plugin perhaps? BTW your ability to mimic the real song is amazing. The lead synth in both are perfectly identical.

Perhaps thats why he never responded to it..he doesnt know what those programs are or do lol.

This is what I saw from MrMcPooner's post

what did you change? June 10, 2005

This sounds exactly the same as the original :-/....I find it hard to believe that you have the ability to manupulate and copy/recreate the exact synths from the original song without effort, and getting all the fade's and EQ/Filter effects perfect. I have a feeling that this song isn't yours but I dont know that so I'll just end this review at that and give you a 7...only because I don't know ;)

Author's response:
Let me tell you something. I may remix music. But I NEVER steal something that some1 else alredy made. I made this remix by my self, and trust me im not one of these people that steal others music and put it here

I guess it's up to you on who you believe, but from what he said about his Echoes From Alaska song blelow.

Description: I cant say ive put much effort on to this one, but it still sounds pretty good. Enjoy!

No effort into such an insain song thats practically the original in my opinion means MrMcPooner and Ryan are 100% correct. I am also done posting in this thread, just had to lay everything out for all to see; make your own assumptions.

Even if it was his own stuff i would still vote low on it because thats not what i call "REMIXING".and by the way...who can't time stretch?If anyone can help me get hooked up with an accapella i would show some remixing for real ;)

BOUNC3

I have a HUGE amount of Acapella's :P, email me if you wanna get hooked up :P

but yea, I'm not gonna fret over this whole thing much, as long as people know that he didn't do any if that than things are fine with me, it'd be a while different story if he stated that he used Atomix to record them and such, but go as as far as saying he made everything, common, what does he think he can take us for? fools? lol

anyways, I personally love all of Paragon's tunes, Bounc3, I'll check out some of your stuff, havent really listened too much up here, but I'll look into it :)

Peace
