[Silent Silouette]

Love it Mark. Just curious, what piano and string patches do you use? Again, great job!

MarkySpark responds:

Hiya, I just use a yamaha porta grand piano and it's own string bank. Thanks for liking the track.

[Momentum]

Damn dude, this is awesome :D Great work!

Geoplex responds:

Thanks :D

[Stereo Tide]

Very unique to your other stuff. I love the part at 1:00, its lacking a bit being that it isn't so full at that point, but I think that feeling just makes it that much better. I'm not sure how to review this song since techno isn't really my genre, but I would say the production value on this is really good. Definitely one of my favorites by you. Nice work man, sounds awesome! 5'd and favorited :3

ChasingPresence responds:

Why thank you very much sir :D

[Become a God]

Wow, sounds really awesome. I love the chill feel to it. Nice work!

fearing responds:

Thank you buddy! I'm glad you liked it, thanks for the kind words!

That was one of my main goals, to make something chill, but also with plenty of energy. :)

[Imprisoned]

Nice work man! Sounds awesome :D

ChasingPresence responds:

Thanks man! Cant wait for your next track ;)

[LB - Sunny Rays]

LazyBucks responds:

Whoa what a totally unexpected comment, thank you random stranger.

[~SW~ Dimethyltryptamine]

Wow, very interesting jazz piece. Certainly haven't heard anything like it. The song sounds really fun and video game if you know what I mean. I love the tambourine or high hat (Sounds like a tambourine anyway) Kinda reminds me of the drums in fresh prince of Bel Air. And I agree with Buoy, the part at 2:55-3:55 really is great. The piano and sax part is really awesome. I can't really criticize this much because it isn't in my genre. But nice work guys! Sounds awesome :D

SkyeWint responds:

Haven't heard anything like it? ;) Good. Making things unique is fun.

Also, videogamey? I'm not sure how that works, but I guess I can kinda see it.

There is a tambourine and some kind of high hat in there. The high hat is the clicking sound you can hear with a delay at about 0:01, and pretty much constantly panned to the left at about 0:20 onward (except a few times when it does delay stuff). The tambourine comes in at about 0:16 with a fadein, then is pretty much constantly panned to the right at about 0:20 onward.

If it sounds awesome, then I did my job. :3 Thank ye kindly!

[Seek the Will-o'-the-Wisp]

Why did this get such a lower rating??? I love it dude. Nice work! It could have been more powerful at some points. Even though it is a calming song I think it could use some more fullness and louder and more powerful stuff in there. Nice work though :D

Neon-Bard responds:

Thanks man! I agree with you on that point, about it not being as 'full' as it could have been. That's something I can work on when it comes to the more simple songs I make. :)

[Polargeist]

Oh, I get it! Polargeist, like a poltergeist! It's a play on words! :D

Step responds:

:DDDDDD

[Seafall]

This song was fantastic. So soothing, and the title fit very well. Great work. The only thing I could think that would be better is if there was a better transition into the part that changes tempo. I was also thinking it may have sounded better if you just kept the original pace of the song. The dubstep that starts around 2:40 isn't very fitting in my opinion. The song has nice lovely melodies and all and the parts I mentioned that might need changes aren't too harsh to ruin the song for someone. Great work though. Favorited!

Well, I thank you for your honest input. I was going a little bit more experimental on this, and decided to change it up in the middle, but I guess that's not everyone's cup of tea. However, I do appreciate that you took the time to review. Constructive criticism is how I can grow ^_^
