'you may only submit your own original music to the audio portal"..."loops made from exsisting songs are not your own original work"

The song this is created from is free to be used, it is not copyrighted material. Besides, this differs from the original song alot, and could therefore be considered as a Remix, and I dont see you complaining about remixes. I dont understand what the problem is, I dont gain anything from posting this here and you dont lose anything by taking the time to listen to it. If you think it is going against the rules then fine, just dont review my work saying its against the rules, let the people who run the site tell me that. Next time you review please try to give a review relevant to the content of what your reviewing.

it sounded pretty promising and awsome until the drums started in. maybe it's just the mastering/recording that makes them sound that way but even so, they sound very dry and monotonous. your guitar tracks have a great start but it could use a little more dynamic action and song structure that really keeps a person listening.
keep at it

I definitely see where you're coming from, especially your comment about the drums. Our Second album sounds a LOT cleaner and more powerful, and is a lot more complex musically.

i love the way garageband works and i recognize it anywhere. the loops are fun to play with but what you'll want to get to eventually is learning how to use the software instruments to make original chord progresssions, melodies, drum beats, etc. for me hearing even one garageband loop is an immediate turn off. but hey. it's only your eigth song. foor a your eighth song, this isn't bad at all.
8/10
4/5

however, i would have really enjoyed the piano and violin playing over eaach other while alternating solos and backups. i would have also really enjoyed if you would have made the violin a little more complex to match the complexity of the piano.
8/10
4/5
Author's Response:
Yeah maybe I'll do something like that last time.
The violin was pretty complex. So I don't really see how you think it wasn't haha. Besides, the piano can have a lot more voices at a time than violin. So piano can play the most complex music, texture-wise. However, they were really dueling over improvisational skill.

i for one enjoyed the fading and distance effects. however, that demo version of toxic can be annoying. i try to avoid it as much as possible but it's pretty much inevitable. kind of a dent in the wallet to buy a licensed version. oh well. still love the song!
Author's Response:
O SHIT yea man demo toxic really sucks, white noise randomly.
o yea man, toxic is too expensive to not have the white nioze.

i liked it but the pace is a little slow moving and repetitive. 4/5
Author's Response:
Well it's not a fast tune but I think it's alright this way. Though you're right it's a tad repetitive but again I think that it's not over-repetitive. After all, every music is repetive, that's for a lot of people the main reason why they like it. Tnx for the review
Peace

that's wack dude. put a smile on my face though way to go! (to bad i was laghing at you instead of with you). ot was incredibly off beat and off key. i couldn't even tap my foot to it.
Author's Response:
I found a 4 beat tempo actually is feasible from this, but hey, to each his own.

This intro to this song reminds me of something...
|:{ I know if I think about it long enough it will come to me...
aaaarrrrgggggghhhhh!!!!
!@#$ man!
The song may have been written by creed
but I beleive that it's by the same band who wrote "pull me out". do you know the band I'm talking about? If you do... IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!
cool song though. Drums could be louder. :)
Author's Response:
Are you talking about Pull Me Under? Cause I think I can see what you're talking about there, if not though, I'll probably have to look that up and see what it sounds like, but I'm glad you liked the song dude, I appreciate the review.
