This is a fun, dance-able track that is decent background music, but ultimately is kept back by some inconsistencies and production choices that stop it from really making the impact I think it could, especially considering how creatively the different sections fit together. There's a lot to like

Artist: Din
While I think the production and instrumentation was generally solid, I couldn't help but think that this piece was somewhat unfinished. The individual sounds are chosen well and for the most part compliment each other nicely, but there is a quality to it, particularly in the transitions n

Window In The Sky (part 5)
Reviewed: June 26, 2008
Artist: Louigi Verona
I must say I think this is just a fantastic piece of music. It fits pretty cleanly in its genre, so people who don't like this style may not like it, but I'd encourage them to try it out all the same. It's very well constructed, sounds great, and is a fitting finale to Louigi's "Window in the

What a pleasant surprise to find this in my review queue. IDM and ambient aren't styles that I frequent often, but I found this track to be a pleasant, engaging ride from start to finish. The grounded bassline and evolving pads contrast very nicely with the somewhat frantic percussion introduced

It's easy to miss the point of this song. For quite a while I wrote it off as 'that song with the bells at the beginning' - good, but not captivating. Here's the thing though - there's way more depth here than I was letting myself see. This is a song about slow, ethereal transitions. And it

Story Scene

Artist: TwiTerror
A lot of TwiTerror's tracks are pretty clearly meant to be the background music to a roleplaying video game. This one is too, but it's more like a movie score - no synthesizers that I could tell, and a full compliment of traditional orchestral instruments that are mixed very well in my opinion.

Here we have a charming, peaceful-but-active piece from Pete. The song is a pleasure to listen to, and the only things that hold it back a bit are some slightly weak instrument sound (but this happens with tracked works and many don't mind, myself included), and some odd panning choices. Interest

Bomb in the Barracks (Draft)

Artist: TwiTerror
First thing you need to know is this track was written for a game soundtrack. It is not trying to sound like a live piece, or a club hit, it is trying to sound like the soundtrack to a game and does so quite well. It retains some of the properties of traditional game soundtracks (especially from R
