Reviews for "Rucklo - Second Thoughts"

Woah!!!

This is so good! I love the stereo-effects, the rhytms, and everything! It's so weird! GREAT JOB!

Keep it up!

Rucklo responds:

Yo!

Thanx a 1000 for the review :D

Lucky

Very Rarely do i give out 10's, so your a lucky one. This is your best song btw, you deserve the 10 for effort alone. What all equipment do you use?

Rucklo responds:

And I bow to you and thank thee for the 10 thy grace this song with :D
I´m glad someone actually hears the amount of work I put in to this song!
As for the equipment, I work in Reason 2.0 and that alone. But I´m currntly learning Cubase, but it´ll probably take a while until I get the hang of it...

I appreciate your review, may the gods simle upon thee! :D

Nice work..!

It was a nice song, i like the intro alot...

You really got the effects in place but you should work on making the melodies more...ehhm...harmonic. You know what i mean?
It might just be me but i think that for example a Ab chord sounds bad after a Dm...in stead of the Ab id rather a Bb...you know?

Rucklo responds:

Actually, no, I don´t know... I have no deeper knowledge in what "sounds good", I make stuff that I think sounds good. I´ll have to check out how those chords sound that u mention, but seriously, I´m never gonna make stuff "by the book" in that kind of way, if u know what I mean. Music taste divides people all the time, it might sound bad to you, but good to another person. I worked a whole lot with effects, fades, beats n stuff like that. This is a song that probably requires lots of listening, if you want to hear everything that´s going on. Glad U liked the intro, though, it´s a little special. That´s what capture the interest of the listener, ya know :D
Thanx alot for the review, I´m gonna find out what u mean :D
Peace!

Intresting

Nice intro. Very odd start to the piece i must say, not bad, just odd. THe pads that were flaging up and down were very cool, and you mixed up the drums a lot, which is good, so the beat doesnt get boring.There wasnt really a main melody throughout, which sort of added to the chaoticness. I liked how there were lots of movements but it all came back to the same part as in the beginning.

Rucklo responds:

Wow, thanx alot for a really good review! I totally reckognize all the parts u mentioned and understand what u mean. What I too miss is a "main melody"(but ofcourse chaos is fun sometimes :), wich probably will appear in form of a female voice in the nearest future! I thank u for your review man!

I have to give u 10.......

......just because I am aware of the work u put into this and also because I think it's a really cool track. U have definately created a dark, moody atmosphere with a healthy dose of Fx and smooth pad textures/layers. This is fast becoming my favourite track of yours to date, mainly due to the fact that it's more experimental than previous tracks of yours. I have listened to the ones that made it into the top 5 and with the exception of DJRunaway they pretty much suck. Just goes to show, timing isn't everything when submitting to the Portal! All I can say is that I hope more people pick up on this track and give it the high vote it deserves. Great stuff man.
utfodra upp tull gott verka! Or sumthing like that!!!:)

Rucklo responds:

Yeah, I too hope more ppl hear this stuff, not many DL´s up to date :(
But hey, I had fun making this song, learned a couple o´things, and it looks like atleast a few ppl liked it too!
The top 5 list IS a joke many times, though DJRunaway REALLY deserves the 1:st place. He´s on a freaking killinspree last two weeks :D
I intend making more experimental tracks, it´s more fun, I like it more, and it´s more educative :D

"utfodra upp tull gott verka!" means something like;
"feed up joking/bullshitting(or toll) good "work"!" :D
Thanx a 1000 for the review, man, I´m of reviewing and listening to your song "SadMachine.". And I strongly suggest everyone who read this do the sam thing. Kingbastard is his name, and I thank U for your review!
