Got some new music up and criticism is welcomed.
LINKY.
When Sally Killed Harry is Sega-style melodies versus 8bitbeats and underlying drum intensities.
No Time For Rhymes is my result from a challenge a friend gave me to write an 80s pop song - though it came out quite different.
Enjoy.

No Time For Rhymes sounds like the bastard offspring of Cylob's rewind. It's quite catchy and has got sort of an 80's feel to it.
When Sally Killed Harry is a good mash up session. Bit too distorted for my tastes but only just. I like the contrast throughout the track though and I like the reversed sounding melody towards the end.
Good work mister :D

Thank you sir. I shall hold thee in my high court of Priests upon my recreation of this world.

My fave part of Sally Killed Harry is the ending - don't you love it when you make an obscure loop or something and it turns out WAY better than you expected it to?

well. no time for rhymes. yes. it does remind me of something, but i can't quite put my finger on it. nicely done, though. heh.
sally killed harry. yes. the beats are a bit too overwhelming and a bit too distorted, i believe as well. maybe it's just my set-up over here that always makes your tracks sound like the levels are kinda googly. *shrugs* oh well. but yeah...it was pleasant otherwise.

Because Unbeleivable Music Plays in my brain I have decided to urge fellow board members to listen to this music. It really is quite good and I can see how much he would appreciate your feedback. So come on...don't be Christian...have a listen... :D

When Sally killed Harry started nice and then the drums ruined it. Maybe it's just me, but the reversed sounds don't really prepare the track for the distorted drums.
In that other song, I just noticed you really need to compress the vocals, so that they "sit" better in the track. As it is now, they don't really have that much presence and sound very undefined like something you'd have as a background thing.

I downloaded No Time for Rhymes.
I think I either like "80s-style" music or don't based mainly on the melodies and how well the sounds and notes "fit" together. I really like how this song begins and ends, but I think the vocals and that electric piano sound sort of ruined it for me. The vocals seemed sort of a-tonal, although i imagine this was your intent. Also I noticed the part at the end sounded very similar to a part in the µ-ziq track phragmal synthesis. did you do this on purpose or is it coincidence?

Paco - It's basically a song for coping, I had been thinking about my ex when writing this, so it's sort of a revenge song. To start very pretty then become insanely ugly - it's how all bad relationships start and end. I might flatten to vox on No Time eventually, since I have all the loops in a safe spot still.
Handoverthecart - The part at the end was coincidence. I didn't really notice it until you mentioned it. It's not really supposed to be pop, just my attempt at it. So i suppose opinions on this track are 50/50 right now - then again, you can't please everyone.
Thank you both for listening. And thanks to Don for bumping this topic! :D
