[Mega Man 2 Dr. Wily Elite]

I always get so PUMPED by your music! Love your fast and heavy style, and the mixing is superb. I just want to go to a rave and jump around to this ^_^

Great job!

EliteFerrex responds:

Always glad to see you around my tracks, bud. Thanks for stopping by, and I'm happy I could leave you something you enjoy!

[Colours]

You sure made one happy song!
I'm already in a good mood, but now I feel even better :D
Great work man! Love it!

DuttonsaysHi responds:

Haha I try :D
and that's awesome to here ^^
Thanks a lot man!

[Age of Empires - Empire's Club]

Clearly the only real good Age of Empires remix out there! :D
This brings back so many awesome memories! I just wanna give you a huge thank you for this amazing remix :D
This game (And the second one) needs more remixes, and you have inspired me to make my own!

UnrealReno responds:

I'm glad :)

[Virtual Winter]

Aaaw what an adorable song <3 I really like it. Sounds like a credits song for a game with a good ending :D
The only part that annoyed me a bit was the part at 02:10. The bell pad thing in the background made that part sound out of tune sometimes, so I think that part would've been better without that sound :P

Otherwise this is a great piece of music that fits this time of year :D
Great work and happy holidays!

DuttonsaysHi responds:

Thanks! but that's the most festive part! it wouldn't be the same without the bells! I don't think they're out of tune, they just have a lot of ring to them so I guess they override each other in some cases, creating some weird tones. I think that's what you're hearing. I probably should have done something about that but they didn't bother me so much at the time so I guess I didn't catch it :P but nice catch I'll try and avoid it next time!

Thanks for the overview man :D and happy holidays!

[Blizzard on the Ice Cap]

Ah. Very soothing ^^ Only real problem is that it's too short :D

Krichotomy responds:

Thanks. The idea was to be a soft soothing remix as opposed to the gazillion trance icecaps out there. :) A longer improved version is in the works but I might never finish it because of wanting to work on other projects and because this version already conveys the heart of what I was feeling.

[Anger Storm]

Wow. This is really well made! It's not my style of music, but it's still awesome :D
Only problem I had was the guitar solo at 02:28. It sounded weird at times. Like a little bit untuned. My ears are very sensetive x)
But overall good work!

DuttonsaysHi responds:

I don't know sounds okay to me. Maybe a little out of time but it's all in the right scale as far as I know :P Keep in mind it was recorded with a cheap headset so that probably messed with the sound a lot as well as the guitar not being as spot on tune wise as the synthesizers :P

I had a lot of problems with the solo :c I tried doing it naturally but it sounded out of place and time in a robotic computer track so I tried slicing the notes individually and placing them more accurately but they lost a lot of flow so I tried doing a mixture of both. So yeah as mentioned I'm aware of the flaws :P But thanks for your insight :D

[Heroes of Earth]

This is pure epicness! I love it! :D
The quality is just... fantastic! I don't know what more to say xD

DuttonsaysHi responds:

Thanks! it's nice to get a response like that xP

[Jump]

Love it! A beautiful and happy tune :D
Great job!
