[i couldnt come up with a title]

This isn't even drum n bass

Yea, this is pretty much House. Learn what genre your music is, think of a title, and thanks for playing.

Excellent as always!

I skimped on a star because the buildup lead me to believe this track was going to be much more busy. However, this is vinyl quality. Did you ever get signed, man?

[Beta Breaks]

Techy and mysterious.

I felt like robots where lurking in the dark around me or something. One criticism is that I'm fairly certain I recognize about 90% of your sounds from the Reason Sound Bank. When you use Reason, there is a great temptation to use the multitude of samples and sounds they include, but the Props need to update those samples. Try to avoid REX loops and FX from the Sound Bank when using Reason, as some of those sounds are becoming a bit chiche'd.

Enough of that, however. This was well laid out and enjoyable, keep up the good work!

Jesus Christ, buddy!

Where you been hiding that? This is fucking club-quality! When it gets released (and it will; if it doesn't I know of some people who might want to release it), let me know where I can order a copy!

[[Armymenis12] Car Chase]

I gotta admit, I felt this one.

However, all I can really say in this review is: Please remember in the future that more high end does not equal clearer sound. Smooth out those highs and toss some midrange and bass in there! A tip: Not all sounds need the same EQ, but that is where it gets complicated, in'it? :-D

[SpK*) - Euphoria [NG Preview]]

Tasty.

I like the old skool feel this has, it's like Goldie on a bad mushroom trip. It does sort of lack completeness, but as you said this isn't a full track. I kept waiting for it to build into something more complete, but it just felt very cold and hollow. Perhaps that was the overall intent, but it just seemed to need a bit of contrast.

Overall, though, well thought out and well executed.
4/5

[Tetris BreakBeat!]

Doesn't work

I let it go for like 30 seconds...no sound?

B34T1N responds:

I've noticed this bug, you can download for now, I'll submit this piece again in an hour or so, I'm working on like 10 songs at once at the moment. XD

[--Attack--]

LOTS of potential here.

I heard a really good track in there, but it lacked that fullness in the sound. Once you learn to go beyond basic production skills, don't loose track of the way you came up with ideas like this one, and you'll be awesome.

[Test Drive--_--(2:01)]

Hey, welcome to the Reason crowd!

I just HAD to review this once I saw you where in a new progam, and I gotta say it's nice! It still has that "Reasonesque" feel to it, though...somehow I can just "tell" it was made with Reason, as opposed to other programs which I can't distinguish between. I am not sure if that's just because I am used to Reason or what but hey, the track sounds good!

It's already more clear than anything I ususaly get out of reason without weeks of tweeking and reworking! Good stuff, can't wait to hear you try some of your older-style stuff with it!

PERVOK responds:

It's gonna be a long time until I'm used to it enough to be able to do my old style...

Thanks for the review though, bud :)
