[Dazzling Serenity (HOUSE)]

The kick is definitely not pronounced enough IMO. Otherwise sounds pretty good. GJ.

[King's Relic]

Eh, not bad. Doesn't exactly sound like a "King's Relic" to me, mainly because of that odd instrument that kicked in at about 00:15. I think it was rather loud and rough-sounding compared to the rest of the composition. Also, that short section around 1:37 was rather unexpectedly loud in my opinion. Not trying to be overly critical here, just offering some feedback. Do keep up the good work.

Zicorn responds:

i do agree with you there... ill work on that in future projects

[Gears]

Doesn't sound like dubstep to me. More like downtempo (ambient?) or breakbeat. Nonetheless, it's pretty good. A tad repetitive, but not such a big deal. Could try making it a bit more atmospheric, though, maybe by adding in some background strings or something of the sort. It could also could use a little more buildup and breakdown. Nonetheless, keep up the good work.

KoMoBeats responds:

Alright man, thanks for the reply. I'll try adding more strings to it.

[Hi5]

The idea isn't bad. But the intro was much too long and much too repetitive. I don't like how it basically did the same thing for 40 seconds straight, and to be very honest, I was getting kind of bored about halfway through. Try cutting down the length of the intro, make the buildup more dramatic, and maybe throw in some more instruments. It's a good start, though. Keep up the good work. =)

[Chorus Compilation (djbe)]

Not bad. There are three major issues I take with this, though: 1) It sounds a little on the rough side, even for dance music, 2) I found the changes in melody rather abrupt and jarring, and 3) I would have liked to hear a little something in the background. Other than that, it's good. Keep up the good work! =)

[Snapdragon]

The melody is lovely, and the guitar was definitely a good idea. Nice atmosphere you got going there. The synths that kicked in at 0:28 sounded a bit muddy to me, but I guess that's kind of subjective. The strings that took over at 1:23 also sounded slightly off for some reason, and something sounded a bit dissonant in the background during the breakdown at around 2:50. Choir was a bit too quiet IMHO. I'm guessing that this composition is supposed to be rather relaxing, but I do wish that both the buildup towards the ending and the ending itself were a little more dramatic; I find that both were kind of flat. Nonetheless, good job, as usual. Keep it up.

[My Destination]

I like the variations on the original theme. Maybe a bit repetitive, but I didn't find that a problem, partly because the original is fairly-repetitive, too. Some parts sounded a bit flat compared to the rest of the remix, but maybe it's just me. The only other thing that bothered me somewhat was the beat, which I found slightly annoying in some parts, but that didn't really detract from the overall listening experience. Good work, as usual.
