Reviews for "Generic Rock Idea (WiP)"

Well......

It's not your best, that's for sure.
First of all, I'm sorry to say, The samples were all quite sucky, they sounded horrible, very very sorry though.
The melodies were OK but they could use some work.
All in all, the sucks arse, and I KNOW you did this in a hurry, I didn't have to read the review......
So spare us the laughs, do your usual good-ocity songs, not suck balls ones ;)

Step responds:

Hm, the samples aren't supposed to be that bad. It's Virtual Guitarist, although I agree that Virtual Guitarist isn't that good for electric guitars. It does much better with Acoustic Guitars.

Melodies were horrible, just 3 notes used for the whole song :C.

Well if you don't like it why'd you give me a 10? :P.

Thanks for the review!

Well...

I'm judging the idea, since it's a work-in-progress, and the thing is... I like it. xD
It's a good intro to a hard rock song, and you really don't need melody in metal music. And... about quality, my "Junk file" is worse, trust me. Even if it's just an idea like this.
Keep up ^^

Step responds:

Lol thanks, although this is one of my worst recent songs. If you want to see something decent, hear Racing Through Eternity :D.
Anyway, yeah, I'm new to metal so I don't know if it needs a melody or not xP.
Thanks for the review!

Sorry to 5-bomb it...

But you should get this finished. Got some rough ideas on this one I hope...
Although the louder intro closed hihats (0:07-0:11 roughly) should have a little more variety in key velocity, at least in my opinion. At least like every other note should be a little softer, just enough to be noticable. Other than that, I got no problems with this. Oh yeah, except that it's just NOT FINISHED. (Kidding here, just work on it as you have the time.)

Step responds:

Hey, long time no see :3.

I don't really think this has enough potential to be finished, but nevertheless I'm glad you like it. I see what you mean about the hi-hat hit velocities, my songs sound very robotic... it's a bad habit.

Thanks for reviewing!

Short but sweet

Obviously if I were comparing this to rock standard I would be more harsh, but I'm not, nor should I. It sounds like a nice rock foundation.

I thought the hi hat was a bit too loud throughout. That's not always a bad thing, but in this case it kinda distracted me from everything else that was going.

I liked that built up to a more energetic point. It didn't take too long, and nit wasn't too fast either, which was a strong part of this loop. Especially in something as short as this there is no time to keep people waiting, and you didn't, so that's good. The guitar was certainly not lacking in any way.

If you can come up with a melody to go on top of this, it will no doubt get some amazing feedback, so if you're working on any full-length rock stuff, I'm we'd all love to hear it.

Nice work!

Step responds:

Wow, 3 new reviews by you. Thanks O.o.

"Obviously if I were comparing this to rock standard I would be more harsh, but I'm not, nor should I. It sounds like a nice rock foundation."

Heh, I'm pretty surprised you said that since this took only an hour. Just did it for practice with the new VST I got, but thanks.

"I thought the hi hat was a bit too loud throughout. That's not always a bad thing, but in this case it kinda distracted me from everything else that was going."

Hm, yeah, now that I think about it, it's definitely too loud. I'll definitely turn it down a bit.

"I liked that built up to a more energetic point. It didn't take too long, and nit wasn't too fast either, which was a strong part of this loop.

Awesome, thanks. Heh, this actually is a bit similar to the War Theme. Starts softly, and quickly gets more energetic xD. Glad you like the guitar.

"If you can come up with a melody to go on top of this, it will no doubt get some amazing feedback, so if you're working on any full-length rock stuff, I'm we'd all love to hear it.

Nice work!"

Thanks man. Heck, if I found someone who's willing to sing on this then I'd be glad to turn this into a full rock song :D.

Anyway, thanks for the awesome review!

Ehh

All it is is just an intro for something epic? :P

Step responds:

More like a 1-hour work when I was half-asleep.

Thanks for reviewing xD.
