Harm's Music Box Part 2

This is certainly not my best work, but it's a fun little DnB song I've recently finished. Would appreciate any criticism before this goes up on Newgrounds.

Enjoy!

SkyDrive

EDM song, probably house. Hard to say really. It's 134bpm, quite relaxing... little different from my usual stuff despite being driven by piano.

Oh yeah, I'm back, too! Please enjoy :P

DreamTide

So I'm actually sorry for a lot of stuff about this song, and many others - I've been using exactly the same structure for like 2 years now, for example. I just like the way it works and how easy it is to use. I'm also sorry for my typical square lead/piano combination, I've only used that like 5 times or something. I really like the way that works, too. 

At the very least, this one breaks the mold in some ways with some cellos and sidechained saws (which are new for me, and something you'll be hearing a lot of in the future!)

Also I put a little more effort into the percussion, and I think the mixing is the best job I've ever done. So yay! I really like this one.

I think it's dance. I have no idea though, seriously.

Blue Expanse

So I made a generic EDM song with a chord progression that should last half the duration of the actual song. Sorry. Tried to mix it up, but i didn't really manage anything great in that regard.

Otherwise I'm perfectly happy with this one, I think I got a fairly punchy result while avoiding over compressing. I'm not sure on genre placement thought. Dance or house? Please advise. 
Enjoy!

Bioluminescence

Not sure about this one. It's been finished for a few weeks but i haven't really felt like uploading it. Figured I might as well.

Pretty happy with the mix, though my percussion could be better; I guess. Went for a relatively relaxed style. Enjoy!

Look Up

This is one of my favorite projects yet - it may be a bit generic by some standards but personally I think I've been successful at blending my own style in. It's also my first progressive song, really, meaning that the start has no chords! I know that's weird if you've listened to a lot of my stuff. Stick with it, it gets brighter :D

The structure of the intro bears striking resemblance to Tritonal's "Slave" as I'm sure someone will notice. It's not unintentional, I really love that song, and I'm happy with how close I managed to make parts of my intro sound. Consider it an homage? :P

Duality

This is a remake of an old song, Horizon. It uses some of the same structure, but I changed it up hugely half way through. This is my first time working with/writing lyrics, so I don't think they're the best, but using a vocoder is fun and I'm somewhat happy with how they turned out.

I don't think my mastering is up to scratch in this one, to be honest. I'm completely sick of hearing this song so I'm not really sure what it sounds like. Maybe I'm just holding myself to ridiculous standards after hearing Xilent so much recently.

I've had some comments on my snares, and I'd like to point out that in my drum and bass songs I go for a dubstep kind of snare sound. That is, fat. I like it fat. 

Consequently, this song is loosely based on Au5 and Collin McLoughlin's "Tendril." Good fucking song.

Afterglow (ft Roy)

First attempt at Dubstep - this has been a long time coming. I've been very inactive lately due to some creative block, some time constraints, some real life stuff, etc. You get the idea. Anyway, I've been working on this song for ages and finally said fuck it and called it done.

If the mix is wonky or the mastering is terrible it's because I've heard it hundreds of times and will never have an objective understanding of it again lol.

I should probably also mention that aesthetically and melodically, this song is a HUGE homage to AU5, Fractal, and Seven Lions

Aether

Second DnB track, finished around July 2012.

Reflection

This started off as something somewhat more relaxing, but developed once again into Drum and Bass. I've gone with a slower Bpm this time (174, the typical number for the genre I believe.)

This one is still a lot more relaxing than previous work, mostly as a result of its speed. 

Enjoy! 

Origin

Alright, I have a lot to say about this one.

I've essentially pushed what little mixing/mastering skills I have to the limit with this track. I've attempted to incorporate much stronger bass and percussion than usual,
and overall intended to create a more powerful song. I'm not confident at all in the end result, but I'm completely sick of spending hours tweaking it. So here it is.

The intro was based on Livewire's "Fading Light." This was originally an attempt to replicate the intro because I liked it a lot, but I decided to elaborate upon it.

This is also my first time using my own sounds with NI Massive, so the bass sounds kind of amateur to me. I dunno.

I'm also unsatisfied with how un-melodic this piece is compared to my other work, and so I want to make something heavily melody based next song. Probably an Orchestral-DnB
hybrid. 

Enjoy and stuff.

Horizon

This might actually fit better into Dance, but I'm not sure. I'll keep it as Trance for now.

But, yep! As with Ocean of Stars, this might not be a final version as I'm a bit unsatisfied with the mixing/mastering on this (kick isn't really punchy enough, and no matter what I do I can't get my little synth-pluck thing to get through the mix; but oh well.)

Anyway, yep! Enjooooy.

Solar Rain

This was finished around a month ago, but for some reason I just didn't upload it. I don't really know why.

It's extremely similar to previous pieces (except a little better mixed) and so I suppose I'm worried that it'll be another "Winter Star" (previous song that I removed because it was similar to Jetstream.)

This might not be a final version, as I have another 4-5 days to refine to for Newgrounds if I get any major criticism.

But yeah, enjoy!
