[Rig - Sentience Loop]

Interesting- cool idea

Very awesome sounds coming around here. I like the approach, too. It sounds very unique.

However, I found it took me a bit of time to catch where the beat was coming from; it sounded a little random at first. If you're not already trying this (though you seem to have your idea well in hand), you might consider making the beat a bit more palpable and build it up before you flood the measures with tones.

Other than that bit, which I could be completely wrong on, I loved it. Once again, a unique tone, awesome idea. I love it!

Rig responds:

Yeah, I cut out the intro, which establishes the beat just fine. The intro will be in the full song :)

Thanks for the review!

[Shadows and Reflections]

Quite interesting

This is a nice mix. I always love hearing sad vibraphone. There's a sort of "innocence lost" feel that most instruments can't imitate. The tune has a cool funeral dirge sound to it, too, which I like as well. The one thing that I'm hearing in this is a large, large disparity of octaves between your strings and your vibe. I don't know how it sounds an octave up; maybe it's too tinny or close to discern the tune, but it might have done it some good to be a bit closer. But as that sort of anal issue is the only nit I can think to pick, this is doing real well! Keep up the cool work!
