I _knew_ someone will invert it that way :D $ $ * hahahahaha, it's funny. $ $ * a little cheezy, but theory and composition is incredible $ $ * Hmm.. that poppy game music style again lost you some points. I $ $ still wanna hear something different. However, technically sound, $ $ well orchestrated... almost too perfect! You're damn good at what $ $ you do. ;) $ $ * This remembers me some synths songs demo! funny.. good work $ $ * simply astounding. $ $ * WAVE is good as always. The quality of this tune is exceptional as $ $ always. Professional sound. It's a crying shame that it's so damn $ $ repetitive. $ $ * Couldn't tell who was this by. $ $ * Wave's usual groove. ;) $ $ * excellent flippin' tuneage. very clever use of the pathetic vocal $ $ sample. wave's formula works well!! i'd give my left breast to $ $ be able to track like this guy. $ $ * As a foreword, I'm a "passive" scene member. I have only heard the $ $ Pools of Poison from you, and I saw that you're very popular on $ $ #trax. But I didn't know anything else about you. So I was shocked $ $ when I loaded up your tune... You are Jeroen Tel?!?! *THE* Jeroen $ $ Tel?!?! ... I don't know what to say. I could say something like $ $ "this is not fair. I might as well compete against Mike Oldfield, $ $ or Vangelis." But if I'm right, you're 24 now, so it's not *that* $ $ old... Or I could say something like "well I'll be this good too, $ $ after 9 years of tracking" (or even more? I don't know how long $ $ you have been tracking before Cybernoid) But you were this good $ $ already when you started. Stormlord, Supremacy... Brings back the $ $ memories of all those years before I had my PC. So: I don't think $ $ I'll feel bad if you beat my tune (which you *will*). This goes to $ $ a lot of you out there: check out this tune. 1) A lot of patterns $ $ seem to be copied, but it's *not at all* repetitive. 2) *No* $ $ panning envelopes! But the sound is still very well placed in $ $ space. So instead of spending too much time on those little $ $ "technical" details (which, of course, can be a nice touch) try to $ $ concentrate on the melody and the overall feeling. This song grabs $ $ your attention, and never stops "talking". Damn my comments are $ $ too long. (note from c.c: you damn bet they are too long. this $ $ comment overloaded my program! so i had to put it in manually :D ) $ $ * wave man... you rock d=9 $ $ * Gaaf! Awesome song! $ $ * Dammit Wave...I'm never gonna win one of these things if you keep $ $ entering. :) What else can I say? Nice, funky tune. Ugh, it $ $ doesn't end properly tho. I don't know if this is cuz I played it $ $ thru IT or not, so I won't take off a point. $ $ (note from c.c.: no no no no and no again. do _not_ play .it files $ $ in cp. do _not_ play xm's in impulse tracker. come on people! you $ $ expect to rate the damn song, and you don't even play it in the $ $ right tracker? maybe it will sound just as good as it sound shitty $ $ to you if you play it in the appropriate program, did it ever $ $ occured to you guys that play xm's in impulse tracker just because $ $ it's _easy_ to play on background? this is right for _all_ the $ $ voters, i hope you understand the responsibility. please play the $ $ songs in their original tracker whenever it is possible.) $ $ * Your a goddam bastard WAVE!!.. what's the point of entering $ $ contests that u know that your're gunna win? =).. awsome song dude $ $ * Another great WAVE tune! Problems: 1) YOU USED THE UBER-LAME $ $ 'PATHETIC' SAMPLE@$#^$%#$^ 2) The song gets boring and repetitive $ $ by the end of the song (m4v-pool syndrome -- starts out funky, $ $ gets boring by the end). 3) You didn't turn off channels 17, 18, $ $ and 19 at the end of the last pattern, otherwise it'd loop almost $ $ unnoticably. $ $ $ $ [. 2.] ybaeon.it Yannis Brown (16.3333) $ $ $ $ * Great tune. A bit on the lengthy side, and a wee repetitive. Nice $ $ leads, excellent panning. A bit quiet though. Nothing really $ $ stands out (except the bass, but who cares about that?!) $ $ * Great tune. Love that bass :D Yannis, you rock. It's great to have $ $ you back :D hopefully you'll be as productive as ever and make $ $ more kicks ass tunes for our enjoyment :D. $ $ * no offense, but i didn't want to listen to it all, but the parts $ $ that i did i liked alot =) $ $ * Hmmm...eerie. Another kinda "empty" sounding song. Ah, there we $ $ go. Nice leads, good effects. Kinda repetetive tho. Reminds me of $ $ Purple Motion for some reason. (don't take that as a bad thing $ $ tho. :) $ $ * First couple of patterns sound shitty, but after that it sounds $ $ great! Well done Yannis. $ $ * Bravo. This was full of simple but good ideas, very very well $ $ implemented. I was really impressed by your leads, especially the $ $ magic that you do with that breath sample from pattern 14 on $ $ channel 8. I respect you, and like every tune you do. Maybe it's $ $ because (although it doesn't show) we're very much alike. $ $ * a thoroughly enjoyable tune. very impressive. $ $ * You've done better... but I like the flute. :) $ $ * Totally rocks as usual. $ $ * This is nice but Looong matter. ╢:) $ $ * Great tune. Yannis rules as always. $ $ * Amiga style ! I loooove this kind of music!! $ $ * rules $ $ $ $ [. 3.] secrtgdn.it Csabo (16.0395) $ $ $ $ * Really a great tune. Liked the extra bonus tune too. Come on, $ $ please don't quit trackin'! :) $ $ * Vergy good, greatly stuctured tune. Totally *ELiTE* ASCii also gave $ $ you a few more points from me :D great implementation of a gothic $ $ font. Cool secret tune :D $ $ * very nice! $ $ * very good except for annoying guitar part $ $ * hey, it's nice. still, minor is always better. i surely would love $ $ it if i was a pink butterfly floating over even more pink world. $ $ * panning! melody! very good.. but it gets cheezy towards the end $ $ * Nice to hear some slow cute music for a change. $ $ * I felt it a bit naive, but you try to track your thoughts! that's $ $ good! $ $ * A bit "beepy" $ $ * Now this is simply beautiful. Nice and laid back. Happy. Peaceful. $ $ Great progression. Guitar could be better, but is ok. $ $ * The End... Game Over... ╢ª) $ $ * Flawless. $ $ * Cool mood $ $ * NICE scalework. This tune didn't strike me at first but then i $ $ noticed the impressive scalework and all that cool technical stuff $ $ that makes music, like, work and stuff. $ $ * Great tune $ $ * Nice intro. Flute melody I swear I've heard elsewhere. (Not $ $ another mod, but in RL). Well put together. Good effects. Very $ $ mellow and nice to listen to. $ $ * awsome song dude... love it =) $ $ * What can I say, I'm speechless. The only fault I can find in this $ $ song is that it sounds terrible in Win95 on my P5-100. Even $ $ through the distortion the beauty of this song shines through. $ $ $ $ [. 4.] cgs-back.it Cygnes (15.1840) $ $ $ $ * just too pink $ $ * good use of samples, good tune overall $ $ * Nice spaced relaxing effect.. however, watch those pans from side $ $ to side, especially when the whole instrument is chorded. Makes it $ $ harder to listen too. $ $ * I like this! $ $ * 30 hours? a long time... ╢:> $ $ * I like this. Nice mixing, ok progression. Strings too loud - $ $ drowned out the choir. Bass keeps the whole tune flowing hicely. $ $ * this one pulls out that happy sound rather effectively. a little $ $ repetitive, but nice. $ $ * Very good. All the time that you spent on this one, it shows. $ $ * Nice intro. Drums a bit quiet. The biggest problem: Too much stuff $ $ panning the same way at the same speed. You can hear the whole $ $ song move back and forth. A bit repetitive but quite nice. $ $ Okay ending. $ $ * I liked this song. Cept, the background could of been a bit less $ $ repetitive. $ $ * I'm sorry, this song would've gotten a 17 if it didn't sound like $ $ shit in Windows 95 on my P5-100. Call me old-fashioned, but if a $ $ P5-100 can't play it correctly you need to work on your channel $ $ optimization. I.e. lay off the NNAs bud. $ $ $ $ [. 5.] mad_cow.xm Pepito (14.5720) $ $ $ $ * grewvy $ $ * tune and composition are great, but it gets a little cheezy $ $ * I like it.. nice use of the cowbells! Catchy chord progression, $ $ but a little lacking in places. $ $ * Good song! I like the bass! $ $ * nice song. $ $ * Cool tune, but that cowbell sucks. $ $ * Reminds me of my old tunemaking times ╢:) $ $ * Groovy $ $ * clever tune with great progressions and a funky feel. $ $ * Some good ideas here, I liked this one. I found the hihats to be $ $ too loud. $ $ * Nice song $ $ * This sounds like it wants to be a Wave tune, but it's not quite $ $ there yet. Kinda repetative. Nothing in this song really stands $ $ out much. Also, don't set your kick drum to anything other than $ $ center pan, or the song sounds off-balance. :) $ $ * a little big repetative, but I love the name and you kick mad shit $ $ with those cow bells, so.. you rule =).. come in 2nd =) $ $ * Nice progression, creative use of the cowbell, fun song. The $ $ percussion was rather weak in some areas, and on a few patterns $ $ the bass was panned really strangely. $ $ $ $ [. 6.] gb-tend.xm Generic Blues (14.2836) $ $ $ $ * nice chords $ $ * Fresh and romantic. You should used tempo 06 $ $ * nice song. $ $ * Nice strings. Nice piano. What a shame it doesn't go anywhere. $ $ Sounds like a Roxette tune. Yup. I like this. $ $ * Nice and easy does it. ╢:) $ $ * Never went anywhere $ $ * a little TOO tender (i like my meat to have some bite to it :) $ $ nevertheless, this piece is well done. $ $ * Nice. I closed my eyes and enjoyed listenning to it. Too bad that $ $ the lead repeats itself over and over again. I was expecting $ $ something to "happen", but it just ended. Also, I don't see any $ $ reason for the speed to be 3, it should have been 6, since every $ $ second row is empty. $ $ * Gets boring after a while, try to use more difference $ $ * Nice intro, good pans. Bass is kinda dull, and drums could be more $ $ exciting. As piano tunes go tho, not too bad. Good ending. $ $ * Nice music. Its a bit overdone though... $ $ * good song; but sounds like one big intro, like a small part of a $ $ big song. $ $ $ $ [. 7.] rl_poui.it Lagioto (14.0652) $ $ $ $ * one usually doesn't play melodies with cowbell. $ $ * Where is emotion? $ $ * Not bad. Ok progression. Bass sounds out of tune. That cowbell $ $ REALLY sucks - don't make a melody out of percussion instruments. $ $ Echos were good tho. $ $ * I expected more of this... and then came the melody ╢:I $ $ * Um, sounds like new kids on the block.. $ $ * this tune felt a tad thin in some places. interesting leads, but $ $ didn't really capture my attention as well as other lagioto tunes $ $ do. $ $ * As I heard the first few patterns, I thought "This is rap." But $ $ after the cowbell came in... It's probably just me, but I simply $ $ don't understand your tunes, they're not clear enough for me. $ $ Also, your instruments (since you don't use'em) are only wasting $ $ space (about 14000 bytes.) $ $ * The cowbell gets annoying after a while $ $ * Cool drums in intro. Could use some leads. Hmmm...now it has $ $ leads, but no harmony. Could use a bit more harmony overall. $ $ "Pathetic" voc gets annoying. $ $ * errr... nice drum beat.. uhh... yeah $ $ * If I hear that 'PATHETIC' sample one more time, I think I'm going $ $ to scream. Aside from that, this song was decent though boring in $ $ parts.The cowbell is not a melodic instrument,don't use it as one. $ $ $ $ [. 8.] sn-getup.xm Snes (13.8024) $ $ $ $ * bassline & percussion is decent $ $ * gets boring fast. $ $ * not a bad song. kind of catchy. $ $ * GET UP... you found it too! ╢:) $ $ * Too boring. $ $ * Ummm.... $ $ * this song clashed with itself in a way i can only describe as $ $ something i've seen/heard a lot in my own tunes. the isolated $ $ bass solo part thingie was pretty cool but it got thrown in with $ $ stuff later that shouldn't have been mixed together. $ $ * "Getup, ahah"... When I first heard your song, I thought "Hey, my $ $ speech sample wasn't that long, it only had the Pathetic part..." $ $ :) Good idea! $ $ * Very repetitive. Doesn't sound "full" enough. Interesting harmonie $ $ tho. Could use some effects. Cool bass part at order 16-19. $ $ * pretty kewl.. you should of used the pathetic sample more! =) $ $ * AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA nawt the 'PATHETIC' sample yet again!@#$@%& $ $ Once past the first few patterns, the song gets better.. not by $ $ much though. Quite repetetive, mediocre. $ $ $ $ [. 9.] tb-hole.it Argh (13.7318) $ $ $ $ * Threatening people's genitalia is no way to get a vote. $ $ * Started out very good but turned into a cheesy rave tune. $ $ * Cool tune. *Always* listen to Ballistique's advices... :) $ $ * not particularly impressive. long, had some nice bits to it. $ $ * Amiga! Amigaaa!!! Ammmiiiigaaaaa!! :) $ $ * Just weird $ $ * pick a style & stick with it $ $ * very atmospheric, lots of variety.. fantastic! $ $ * Call it Amiga-style... I think it's bouring. ╢:I $ $ * Intro is too repetative. Interesting "fast" part. Song on the $ $ whole sounds kinda empty. Bad ending man... $ $ * kinda big, a bit too repetative and like.. too much contrast after $ $ the repetative parts $ $ $ $ [.10.] 31-5.it Motiv (13.7054) $ $ $ $ * Sad theme. $ $ * Nice. Shame it was so short. $ $ * Mwoa ╢:I $ $ * No intro in the beginning, bad end $ $ * Nice mellow tune, cool pans. Good leads. Cool chord-fade. A bit $ $ short. Ending lacks. $ $ * Well, this could of been a really good song, cept i thought it was $ $ too loud. If u made it into a nice mellow type song it would of $ $ sounded great $ $ * very nice, ambient. a bit repetetive, damaged by poor sample $ $ quality (i.e. snare). bad ending. $ $ $ $ [.11.] ccm-cnua.it Mild (13.4860) $ $ $ $ * Keep up the good work. $ $ * Not personal style. $ $ * Nice tune, but it needs expanding. $ $ * Strange ╢:> $ $ * nice clean sound. good panning. needs to be longer $ $ * Not bad. Don't give up on your tunes so fast. Had you spent just $ $ a little bit more work on this one it would have been much better. $ $ Drums are good, they fit well. $ $ * Relaxing tune. Too bad about the end fade $ $ * Cool stuff happening, but too short. I do like the drums a lot. $ $ Ending is blah. $ $ * hmmm.. kinda nice. I think you go a bit overboard with all those $ $ paning effects... pretty soon my computer won't be able to play $ $ your songs dude to cpu usage =).. and it wasn't nice to send an $ $ anti-greet to someone on trax $ $ * channel overkill!! well almost. It managed to play without $ $ clicking on my P5-100. Lack of a definable lead killed this tune. $ $ Short too. Good foundation, falls short on content. $ $ $ $ [.12.] sh-cr05.it Shaithis (13.1395) $ $ $ $ * well executed attempt at a tricky style. $ $ * it's always worth of trying. $ $ * Not interesting $ $ * Hmm. Didn't like this one much. $ $ * Do Irish People play 12-strings? ╢8O ? $ $ * Tempo change sucked $ $ * this song is very dissonant. needs work with elaborating and $ $ consolodating the lead voice. $ $ * You smoke? ugh... $ $ * Gets boring after a while $ $ * uhh...repetitive? $ $ * Um, that ain't Irish. I know, I am irish and I've heard the real $ $ thing. That aside, this is fairly repetitive, but the leads are $ $ nice in places. A decent tune. $ $ $ $ [.13.] g_ultra.it Beek (12.8962) $ $ $ $ * beekin' :) $ $ * mario bros ehh? $ $ * Melody.. needs a little .. sedative :) $ $ * I had waited for something better after this good "amiga style" $ $ intro! :) $ $ * "Sorry about the melody" end quote ╢:I $ $ * this song was well crafted but held in me a sense of forcedness in $ $ its progression. $ $ * You're only 13!?!? I'm sorry, but this means you *cannot* get more $ $ than 5 points. (Hehe, just kidding I gave you 8.) Manipulating the $ $ speech sample was somewhat unique. The tune sounds "random", try $ $ to make it sound more coherent. $ $ * Try to use stereo next time, it's also repetitive. $ $ * Use some panning! The flutey part is nice. The rest of it just $ $ doesn't do much for me. I think it's too "busy" or something. $ $ * hehehe.. beek!, you hot sexy stud you.. lets do that colombia $ $ house rip off thing... cuz your 13 and stuff.. uhh... nice tune... $ $ brisk and fast yet having good contrast =) $ $ * Hmm, you ever considered doing gameboy music? 'cuz that's what $ $ this sounds like :) The bassline could've been better, and YOU $ $ USED THAT LAME 'PATHETIC' SAMPLE!(@&%(#%& Otherwise very nice. $ $ $ $ [.14.] jf!suicd.xm JackFrost (12.0251) $ $ $ $ * creates the right atmosphere very effectively $ $ * spend more time with tracker when you make something. $ $ * The leads were a little too dominant.. but it conveys a certain $ $ feeling of suicidal tendancies.. $ $ * Boring $ $ * some of it wasn't bad... $ $ * Nice atmosphere. Shame about the tune. $ $ * Very haunting, original, lead sucked tho. Rocks. $ $ * the intro was cool, but i scored this one low because there was $ $ very little definition in the percussion and the melody. $ $ * The splash thunder sample was edited nicely, still you use it $ $ wrong. $ $ * Boring! $ $ * Vague beginning $ $ * Dark, evil intro. A bit too long. Pick it up. Ugh. 12-string $ $ sounds lousy with those vocs. No effects, never really goes $ $ anywhere. Try again. $ $ * goddam noise~! $ $ * This song makes a valiant effort to sound dark and depressing, but $ $ ends up sounding incoherent. Less dissonance, maybe even a *gasp* $ $ chord progression. $ $ $ $ [.15.] smeg_int.it Smeg (11.1797) (14.9063*75%) $ $ $ $ * I bet you tried to imitate x-files theme $ $ * "no covers / remixes whatsoever unless permitted/forced by the $ $ special rules of that specific cruelization" <-- so I cut your $ $ score in half because more than half of it was a cover (note from $ $ c.c.: no that comment is _not_ mine, see notes above) $ $ * I like the second part $ $ * The tracking form reminds a bit of the dr.who theme remix you did $ $ for some TT, it just rocks. $ $ * Very derivative tune. Nice use of samples tho. $ $ * Only use transpose on NOTES, not DRUMS. ╢>O : I like the atmos in $ $ part 2 ╢:> $ $ * Thank you 4 crashing my pooter. $ $ * EXTREMELY predictable... but better than "porge the goblin"! Keep $ $ workin at it! $ $ * Wow. I like this one very much. In fact I think this tune is the $ $ best in this round. The 3/6 time singnature is unique, and when $ $ the drums came in it made my head bang... The first part (p0-5): $ $ is this that Anthrax tune? The second part (p20-3x) is terrible. $ $ It get's a little bit better from p31. In the main theme, on $ $ channel 1?, you play two sounds high (B-7, C-8), which sounds $ $ good. But when you step down to A# and then D# (pattern 55) $ $ they're missing. Too bad. Also, at the very start, try to $ $ apply the theory under the mystic name of "dynamic contrast". $ $ Or in plain English, make the accented sounds louder and the rest $ $ softer (maybe shorter too, with the Dxx command). And this one is $ $ not only for you: our almighty God Pulse gave us mortals the $ $ opportunity to attach messages to our songs. So stop writing in $ $ the sample and instrument names, and press Shift-F9. $ $ (note from c.c: and _no_ this comment is not mine either :) just $ $ in case you think c r u e l i z a t i o n rules enforce writing $ $ stuff in IT's shift-f9 screen - no, not at all :D write wherever $ $ you want or don't write at all, just let me know your name :D ) $ $ * This is weird $ $ * Hmmm...not how I pictured anthrax sounding. :) All in all not $ $ bad, but both sections are rather repetative. Good effects tho. $ $ * so basically the first part was "Kill my system with 50 channels" $ $ and the second part was kewl... err.. ok $ $ * Hmm, started out nice. NNA overkill. Had to stop it while I still $ $ could, since it didn't seem to be getting any better (NNA-wise, not $ $ music-wise). $ $ $ $ [.16.] cs-dmnsn.it Cheech The Sneech (10.4982) $ $ $ $ * very repetitive $ $ * isn't it spelled dimension? :P $ $ * Average $ $ * Ok as far as this style of tune goes. The backing is overly $ $ repetitive. $ $ * ╢:I $ $ * has potential. needs more hooks and smoother percussion. $ $ * The slow parts are O.K, but the fast parts sound bad. The drums $ $ should be harder maybe? Also, you should've played something $ $ different on the baseline, faster, it would have helped. $ $ * Repetitive $ $ * Cool intro. Well put together. Hmmm...I liked it better slow. $ $ Leads rather repeatative. Aaah! You shoulda kept it slow through $ $ the whole thing! Mediocre fade ending. $ $ * err... ok... I think the lead is out of tune and kinda weak though $ $ * Ugh. This started off nice but never really went anywhere with it. $ $ Ditch the pseudo-punk beat in orders 4 and 12 dude. $ $ $ $ [.17.] plc-path.it Placid (10.0565) $ $ $ $ * bizarre. $ $ * would make a good ambient techno tune $ $ * Bizzare (note from c.c: and _no_ my program didn't screw up, there $ $ actually were two such comments from different people) $ $ * You seem more glad about your tune than it merite. $ $ * I loved the intro... until I realised it went all the way through $ $ the tune. $ $ * Very original... yet annoying ╢:O $ $ * Yes! Very kewl. $ $ * Its good in a wierd way.... $ $ * Interesting. Better than your CR04 tune. $ $ * Very vague stuff, where's the melody? $ $ * In my opinion, your previous cr tune was much better. Especially $ $ the precussion. $ $ * I thought twice. It still needs melodies. It's awfully repetitive $ $ as well. This is supposed to give me a nice mood? It's eerie and $ $ frightening... $ $ * YEAH.. pathetic remix.. uhhh.... its ok i guess =) $ $ * I couldn't finish listening to this piece of crap, the only 'mind $ $ image' it was giving me was a headache. Oh, and you used the $ $ stupid 'PATHETIC' sample. $ $ $ $ [.18.] f-story.xm Black Fox (10.0328) $ $ $ $ * purple motion-imitation was easy to hear, straight from second $ $ reality. $ $ * Had quite a lot of potential after pattern 22.. it was crying out $ $ for some fast techno.. you had the right idea. Have a listen to $ $ seq # 30 onwards at 140 bpm. I like the umm Purplemotionish $ $ Arpeggigos.. ;) $ $ * Average $ $ * this is a chip tune, right? $ $ * Nice SID-like intro :). $ $ * Ok for a chiptune I guess. $ $ * Funny Chiptune and text... ╢:> $ $ * an honest attempt at chip musak, i give this one credit for being $ $ musically sound $ $ * Did I hear some arpeggio?! $ $ * ??? $ $ * I really, really don't like chip tunes. $ $ * its good for a chip tune. Was that a purple motion thingy around $ $ the end? $ $ * GIMME GIMME GIMME MORE C-64!!!! This tune rocks, if for no other $ $ reason than it reminds me of my old C64/NES days. Ending sucked $ $ though. $ $ $ $ [.19.] fb-lgacy.xm FireBeetle ( 7.2500) $ $ $ $ * yes, it sucks. still, it isn't worse. $ $ * Keep at it! $ $ * Boring $ $ * Boring. Annoying lead. Total lack of enthusiasm. $ $ * I don't like it. ╢:( $ $ * Simple and repetitive. $ $ * has potential. needs work on percussion, smoother transitions, $ $ and leads. $ $ * This song and your skills need a lot more work. On pattern 10, $ $ the fast "solo" with the breath sample sounds very bad. You should $ $ have 1) used the tone portamento command (Gxx in IT) or 2) used $ $ more channels and let each sound decay. Where is the base line? $ $ Where are the hihats? The pad is too loud, also, you could have $ $ used a volume envelope instead of the volume slide commands. The $ $ lead sounds terrible at times. Examine some other tunes, and learn $ $ how they achieve better sound. Keep working,and you'll get better. $ $ * Did you learn that song on your first music lesson? $ $ * Intro is repetative, drums kinda dull. Leads? Hello leads?!? This $ $ song is kinda like one big intro...never goes anywhere. $ $ * You have a nice background, cept you have really sucky leads. $ $ Try to work on the leads and get a better ending $ $ * Interesting chord progression.. unfortunately that's the only good $ $ thing I can say about this tune. The percussion blew, the leads $ $ weren't there, and you USED THAT LAME 'PATHETIC' SAMPLE@#(^*&^$ $ $ $ $ [.20.] hell.xm Axl ( 5.9730) $ $ $ $ * hey, it's GOOD! $ $ * *some* decent parts $ $ * Funny hihats using. But nothing else $ $ * this song is the only hell. $ $ * Axl. One day you will learn what is in tune and what isn't. I $ $ hope... $ $ * Hell ain't heaven... ╢:( $ $ * Crap $ $ * this song gets 9 points for being funny. keep up the psychogabber, $ $ axlb00b! :) $ $ * Yeeeeeeah! *Always* pay attention to your evil side. (The true $ $ one, btw.) And let it grow... Creative use of the squarewave $ $ sample as a *hard* basedrum. (I did the same thing in ...) $ $ * What's about the noise? Weird style :) $ $ * Uh...this is just plain awful. $ $ * argh.. first time i listened to this i thought "noise", yet.. $ $ after listening to the rest of it, there's contrast.. woo.. uhh.. $ $ its ok.. but I'm not into that hardcore thing $ $ * AAAAAAAAAAA!!!!$@% This sounds like what happens when your NES $ $ crashes. I.e. 100% crap. At least FireBeetle had a semblance of $ $ a song. $ $ $ $ $ $ .
