Hi guys, here are my songs inspired/influenced by Quake, Unreal, Frank Klepacki, John 5 and many other musicians that have special place in my heart.
Currently I am recording 3 different albums for visual media especially for video games but life is putting me down so I have hard time to finish them.
Let me know what you think.

I am not going to pretend to like your music because there are elements of it that I do not, but you have some good ideas that can be developed and that have some potential. One thing, however, do something with those synthetic drums - in order to use VST's to simulate drums, you have to think like a drummer. The drum programming is not good at all. I know people who are creating music for video/games etc are all using samples & virtual instruments to create their work but the one area they all seem to neglect is the drums. If you want the drums to just to sound like they are a drum machine/rhythm computer then it's OK but if you are trying to emulate a real drummer you are going to have to spend a lot more time on that side of things. A drum kit is not just a 'beat' machine - it's a very dynamic instrument that takes real skill to bring to life, whether sampled or live.

Thx on review. I agree that people are neglecting the drums, they often do in majority of electronic music. I don`t take them 4 granted. Thx 4 the video about dynamics, hopefully I'll upgrade my studio and get my own drum kit so I could spend more time playing them... as you said - it take a real skill to bring to life
