Title: Flipping Chairs Filename: db_flip.xm |
Posted Sun 13th May 2007
Rated 8 / 10 |
| Are the chairs flipping, or are you flipping the chairs? Whatever Decibelter was doing, he was making a superb funk song. Nice changes from different themes. The bass sounds great. Nice synths, and great tracking. It sounds a bit thin and tinny sometimes. Just a tiny bit. ;) I recommend it... | |

| Funny little Spanish tune. Nice horns. The bass-line is the same all the way through, but there are other instruments that make the patterns different. Weird voices, good beat, and a short tune make for an interesting listen. | |

| Nice tune, but a bit boring. I think there should be some drums at some point in the tune. I like the strings. The "bellish" sample wouldn't be my first choice. It sounds a bit coarse. Good organization and tracking... | |

| This is a bit of a letdown... The melodies are good and all, but I think the dissonance is a little overboard. A little is nice, but a whole boatload? Not my style. The samples still have big spaces after them that could be deleted, reducing space. Still, I recommend the tune because of its difference. Sorry about your dog... | |

| Another very nice funk song by Decibelter. The electric guitars are very cool. I wish they were used a little more in the song, though. Nice bass (as usual), good synths, and nice beats. Masterful tracking. | |

| Hmmm... Ok. Nice try. The instruments don't seem to go with each other. There are a lot of tune follies. The drums and beat are nice, but the tune just ruins it. It doesn't seem to have a purpose. It's pretty repetitive. The samples could use some compression, too. | |

| Nice ballad. The tracking is great. I especially like the strings and the electric guitar. Great mood. I like it when it transitions from the heavier part to the slower part. A must-have for any ambient ballad lover. | |

| A fair Latin jazz song here. The instruments sound a bit MIDI-ish, but they are pretty high quality. I was hoping for something new near the end, but it kept doing the same stuff. Not the worst, but it could be better. | |

| Wondrous ballad. Awesome mood. The guitar, synths, and atmosphere are great! The electric guitar sounds like a synth, but it still sounds good. The drums are near perfect. My only problem is with the voices toward the end. I don't think they fit. They are clicky, too. The samples are not the highest quality, but that doesn't really matter given the tracking skill. It may be a bit long... | |

| A simple but enjoyable chiptune. Nice leads. Good melodies. It sounds pretty full for a four channel mod. I think it's because the bass fills it all up. Nice song. | |

Title: Plastic Reverie Filename: db_plast.xm |
Posted Sun 6th May 2007
Rated 8 / 10 |
| This is a very interesting funk tune. It has a bit of folk influences I think. The acoustic guitars are very nice. There are some weird parts, like a complete fadeout near the beginning, but you'll get over that once you hear the rest. The drums don't seem like they fit in, but they add some interest to the tune. Good synths, nice harmonica-ish sounds, and the whole thing is very well laid out. Nice song. | |

| When I first got this one, I was really impressed! Funny vocals and nice reggae melodies. I don't like that it doesn't end, though. I don't want a loop! It also gets a bit boring with the same beat all the way through. | |

| Good chip song here. There are some strange notes in this one, but I'll just attribute it to the artist's creative style. :) There are some nice changes, but I think it still lacks a little variation. I also would like to have an ending, but the loop isn't half-bad. | |

| Nice song. Creative style. I would like to hear some kind of lead solo instrument somewhere, though. The beat is pretty basic. I think it lacks variation. A beat change somewhere would be nice. The ending is not my style. I don't particularly like fade-outs, especially when they don't fade out all the way. The instruments are high quality, but down-sampling could keep the size lower. This is a keeper. | |

| Funny little metal song. The vocals are not quite up to par. It sounds like somebody belching and throwing up. Ugh! The guitars are OK, but the song is too short (1:27). If you don't have high-speed internet, it's not worth it. If you do, you can laugh along. | |

| Nice trance song. The beginning is cool. The time change is a little weird, but after you listen to it enough, it's OK. This song gets heavier as you go along. I would like to see a lead of some sort, but if you put the song in the background while you are doing something, it's good. Most of the samples are 8 bit. They sound pretty good, though. I keep saying "good!" | |

| I would say this is ambient rock, but what do I know? The drums are pretty nice, except when he tries to roll the snare. Ugh! Good synths, good piano, and good flute-ish thing. The flute-ish thing adds a lot to the song. Overall, this is well done. | |

| This is awesome symphonic metal! It sounds like Haggard or Therion. The lyrics are very well done. The chorus could use some echo, though. All of the instruments are nearly perfect for this. The lead guitar is great, the flute is good, the harpsichord is good, and I could go on here. Just download. | |

| This is what tracked rock is supposed to sound like! Great guitars (acoustic and electric), the drums are tracked in manner that is Betrayer-esque, and the lead clarinet follows right along. I always say those kinds of things in my comments! The file-size is quite big, but it's worth it. Download it. No, really. Don’t press tha... | |

| The spectacular visual effects on this song are just an added plus. The song by itself is good. After watching the patterns, play the song again without watching them. You'll hear stuff you didn't hear before. Too bad XMplay puts it into "parts." I don't think the song was meant to do that. | |

| Where does Zodiak get these samples? Does he make them himself? Anyway, this is a cool jazz song. The trumpets/horns are very neat. Due to the difference of samples, some of the song sounds like it was played on stage, and some of it sounds like it was played in the bathroom. Good song, nonetheless. | |

| Eeeewww! This mod starts out as a harmless little thing, but when the lead bell synth comes in, I can smell it a mile away. If you're curious about how that smells, download the song. If you're sane, please spare yourself. Very repetitive! The drums are nearly the same throughout. | |

| Nice acoustic guitar tune by MC Dreamer. Smart use of guitar squeaks to make it sound like the guitar player is shifting from note to note. The only other instruments are drums and bass, so it gets pretty repetitive towards the end. It's almost 6 minutes long. I would like more variation. | |
