[The Rabbit Hole -GST Mix-]

DAMMIT!

Dammit Tristan, you be showin me up, making me look bad! :O

Hahahaha But DAMN, this track is great!

I like the style you've made for yourself, it suites you well, and i think it fit perfectly with the melodies.

You keep improving, and i think to myself "How good is this guy gonna get?!?!?!"

Looking at the specs, you put a lot of time into this and it SHOWS. it turned out amazing. :D

I can see this being played at a huge rave. haha the energy is awesome :D

Cant wait for some of your original songs :D

Dj-GST responds:

Haha thanks man :D I'm happy that you like it so much!

Thanks, I listen to a lot of this type of music, so my style is largely influenced by it.

Oh I'm gonna get good, you just watch ;) I'm actually thinking of trying out a different program, maybe ProTools or Cool Edit Pro.

Sweet man thanks, maybe it will be played in a rave one day :D That'd be awesome.

I actually have the frame of an original started, but it will be a while before the whole thing is completed.

Haha peace bro :)

[Deadmau5 Style]

...

Fuck. hahaha

This is really good, very nice blend of trance and house, just like the mau5. xD

I think you should go for a full length-er lol. this has potential :D

Dj-GST responds:

Thanks man.

Glad to hear it sounds like him :)

I'll definitely be makin a full version eventually.

[[LiQ] EXCEED-R]

...

actually its Liqourish>Seth xD And this song proves it :D

Great bassline, great drums and nice synths.

The first melody wasn't really that original or anything spectacular but it wasn't bad, and the second one was much better :D

I like the intro, really unique.

Overall great job :D

liqourish responds:

first melody was one from the original :D

[Dat Bass]

...

not bad, the bassline was ultra catchy lol.

Work on your kicks, and transitions :D other than that, nice!

also the synths were kinda cheesy, but i kinda think you were going for that, i dunno :P

haxory responds:

The synths are 8bit :P

Bassline was made nice and dirty.

And yeah, kicks and transitions, I can't deny what you said, they need work.

Thanks for the favour of criticizing :)

[[Zurge] UK Dreams]

,,..

Oh fuck dude!

im already pretty high, but im sure this would sound just the same sober, haha.

Definitely liked the progression the song had, had great melodies, great producing.

I've only listened to Surge so i dont know which part is which but i think you guys did a great job. lol.

Not as repetitive as some progressive trance gets which is a nice relief because i hate it when great melodies over stay their welcome. haah

As for the uk hardcore, havent really listened to that style of music, but it didn't really strike me as 'hardcore' unless uk hardcore is different. haha

Either way, i m diggin this mix.

Nice job

Dj-Zurge responds:

Lol, high. Weed amirite?

Thanks man.

I did the drums, progression, and the melodies from 2:12-5:23.

Yeah, tried to change it up alot.

UK Hardore and Hardcore are related, but sound completely different from eachother. UK Hardcore is a mondern for of Happy Hardcore, but with a less childish feel and Supersaw Melodies. Very different form regular hardcore.

Now is The Time (Original) - Scott Brown (Happy Hardcore)
Synthetic Dreams - Scott Brown (UK Hardcore)
Under Paradise - Noize Supressor (Hardcore)
(Just YouTube em)

Later man.

-Surge

[Dig This!]

,,,

Well i know your gonn' dig DIS!

Nice Production, flows together well, Like the way the instruments come together in the beginning.

The only thing to pick at in the intro (and this is just my opinion) but i dont like the four by four kick pattern, might wanna add a couple accents of a softer kick or something. But i dunno, that might throw off the song a little :P

Im not big on this type of techno (i like more melodic/trancey) but i could tell that the production value in this is very high.

Good work, cant wait to hear more, man, You're really makin a name for yourself on here!! :D

Also, could you stop by my new song? :D

Appreciate it dude! :D

Dj-GST responds:

Thanks man!

That's cool, intros are important because they're what hooks listeners :)

I dunno...I wanted it to be fading slowly and then BAM it starts.

Thanks, I'll have some more up soon. From now on though, I'm also going to be uploading my music to YouTube and SoundCloud, so i can maybe get to making some money :)

[I-Man DubStep (RobotDay20]

:O!!

PM when the full thing comes out :)

Found dubsteb like a month ago and fell into a deep love :D This only helps my obsession. Great and gritty track.

Loved your bass :D

Aydin-Jewelz123 responds:

Haha! Awesome! Funny you say that I only got into dubstep like 2 months ago myself, use to hate it but then stumbled across a few awesome tracks and fell in love aswell :D

Defo! I will let you know when its done :)

[[LiQ] Fallen N Faded demo6TDNB]

ummm....

THIS IS FUCKIN SWEET! i love the intro, sounds very well made, almost studio quality. Nice samples!

It sounds like the melody was reversed and put into a Drum beat... haha. Nice, melody was a bit random and not a whole lot of structure but it was fun :)

I see what you mean with your bass. haha. It sounds nice :D

Thanks for the additional review and thanks for making this song! i liked it :D

liqourish responds:

I'm no good at structure lol. Strings at the begining are not related to the melody at all. Just a demo, not much motivation with the score :/

[Survive The Future {Rebuild}]

,,,

Although i've listened to the original at least 40 times, I LOVE this song.

Currently its the 2nd top played on my ipod (2nd only to Pennywise) and is the only techno song on my top 25 played... Haha.

So since i liked the original so much, this review might be a lil biased.

The additions were definitely great, and i could hardly tell that it wasnt produced in an actual studio.

Some of the synths sounded a little cheesy, but not TOO bad.

This song has been so much inspiration for me when i write, and to hear it being rebuilt, i'm really excited.

KEEP ME UPDATED!!! haha.

Anways good work, man.

Being-Glass responds:

Wow I had no idea I was ranked 2nd on your ipod charts! Awesome Sethkorn
And thank you for the advice I will work out the kinks on the synths a lil more to make them sound less cheesy for the final rundown of this track.

You will be the first to know of the next rebuild of this track expect more!

Peace and compose on!

[Pure Carnage -GST Mix-]

There he is!

Its great to see you've found your style! And what a unique style it is. :D

Great opening, great transitions as always, nice samples, and everything.

The only big problem i have with this song is how repetitive it is, but you already pointed out yourself that it only has two melodies, so no big deal. :P

Anyways you did good on this, i love hearing all your old songs with a new vibe, and a new style.

Lookin forward to that colab!

Dj-GST responds:

My style? Hopefully man, hopefully :)

Thanks, I've started experimenting with different transitions, glad too see it's liked :D

Repetitive, yes, just like the original. I probably could have shortened it a bit.

Thanks man, I'll be remixing a couple more so heads up ;)

Me neither man, I thinks it's gonna be a really fun experience.

Later man!
