[Restarting The Time Machine]

wow that hits you all at once, which in case isnt a bad thing. you are instantly pulled into the melody and the assault doesnt stop!

i love the drops and the mix of sounds. the timing is impeccable and shows your have a great understanding of creating an interesting song structure. Also the production value is off the charts!

Love it! can see it as maybe a protagonist theme or enemy theme?

LunyAlex responds:

Thank you for the feedback and kind words!

[Tranquility (8-bit)]

I like the way it builds and progress', it starts subtle then grows more complex, which is a testament to your skill and talent.

The melodies can sometimes be a little all over the place, at times it feels they are fighting each other for the spotlight (maybe this was the intention?)

the pads at the beginning i agree are a bit loud, had to turn down my volume on my heads and then it was fine.

Overall i enjoyed it, it gives a great vibe of being carefree and enjoying yourself. can see it being used in adventure games.

great work :-)

stunkel responds:

Thanks! And I feel like the overlapping melodies are being overlooked too much. I honestly think it adds a lot more atmosphere to the song. And I think I agree with you on the pads in the beginning, I'll try turning those down a bit.

Thanks for the review!

[The Night Sky]

doesnt get better for a guitar player to hear this, pure perfection

Biggyzoom responds:

Thank you very much.

[Trapped in a Snowglobe]

this is beyond epic. i love the subtle atmosphere that builds and builds. you have a great talent for creating tension and vivid moods from very few instruments. i cant express how much i love this.

stunkel responds:

Thanks! That really means a lot to me :) Glad you saw it this way!

[Supeя TETЯiS 3]

awsum job! one of the best Tetris remix's i have heard.

Dovabeats responds:

Thanks, man!

[Here Goes Nothing]

amazing meshing of styles and sounds. nothing sounds overpowered or underplayed. well done guys, you should be proud of this!

Jackayl responds:

Thank you very much! :)

[Dream P2 Feat RealFaction]

i love the music, the chords and recording is top notch. everything is clear and precise. the vocals are ok. i would (if it was me) reconsider having so much lyrics, the music is lovely and can carry the song. less is more i guess. the 'breakdown' at around the 2 min mark sounds a little messy, the aggressive vocals dont really work in my opinion, they need more of a deeper or a clearer tone and not so throat based. more killswitch and less lamb of god would suit.

overall i think its an incredible song, just might need a little more work in my opinion.

Back-From-Purgatory responds:

This song was never designed for vocals, it was only ever really intended to be an instrumental, RF just wanted to put vocals on it. You can hear the original song on my Soundcloud, or you can purchase it from my bandcamp page.

Thanks for the review.

[We Know (Instrumental)]

an amazing instrumental, well done :-)

Back-From-Purgatory responds:

Thanks.

[Vampires in the Roman plaza]

strangely it reminds me of an early onimusha game. the subtle Japanese sticks really make it stand out. can imagine a fight scene with this, or a stand off between a hero and villian.

great job :-)

LunyAlex responds:

Thank you :)

[Gladiator]

you remind me of an early tool, the drums scream early 2000's with a driving interesting beat.

guitars are great and have a clear defined tone, would be interested to know what software or equipment was used.

overall the structure reflects the same as your other electronic tracks, you know how to keep it interesting and make the listener pay attention to every note.

this is very impressive work!

LunyAlex responds:

Once again thank you for your kind words and feedback!

This was recorded a few years back so some details are a bit fuzzy, but if I remember correctly :

REAPER as the DAW
Line 6 Pod Farm (I believe only works with Line 6 Audio Interfaces) for the guitar tone modeling
Either Superior Drummer 2.0 or Addictive Drums (think it was the latter) as programmed MIDI Drums.

I quite fondly appreciate the Tool comparison, hah. One of my favorite bands.
