[Nitwit]

Nice. The drums are cool. I think the bass needs to be a little louder w/ more distortion. It also seems slightly out of time with the drums. This could become pretty good. Oh, and I wouldn't use the default Sytrus string set. It doesn't sound too great with this piece. Try using a pad like "Warm" or try to tone down the strings detune. Nice job, though. 3/5.

[Orbital Sky Diving]

Wow, this is awesome. I love the lead synth. Reminds me of Animusic. This would be great for credits or an opening theme. Awesome. 5/5.

[GEMINIjU -Indecisive Ways]

I'm gonna have to agree with TheDoor6 on this one, the first synth was a bit strange, but I like it. The chords were a bit "de-tuned" in terms of the chord choice, not necessarily the synth. The abstract atmosphere of the piece really suits the tune I think. It's one of those songs that people think aren't well-written but have potential. Good job, 4/5.

[Protus V2]

This isn't bad for a loop, but the first 3 seconds of the song made me realize how great this would be in a song as a transition. I suggest you try to fit this in a song. Good job, overall. 4/5.

Yea I've been trying to think of a intro and ending.

[Perfect Storm]

The background ambiance really fits the piece well. I also love the transitions. I hear Sytrus presets in the song, but that's OK, Sytrus is a great tool, I use it regularly as well. Considering the 11 hours + 37 minutes it took you to work on this, the product is great. I am downloading this. Very, very well done. 5/5.

[techno rave (v1.0)]

Very interesting chord progression, really well put together. The synths come in a little slowly, but I guess that is just a matter of opinion of how fast you want them to come in. I'd say if you loop this it would be very good for a flash game (main menu/credits). 4/5.

[Wtfepic Battle]

Wow, nice job (I have not mastered the orchestral and classic styles yet). Some parts remind me of the Onestop midi file. You also had a really nice dist guitar in there, really rev'd the song up. Goes into a perfect loop as well. I'd say this is good for a flash game, instead of a full scale production game but, still though, great job. 4.5/5.

SourJovis responds:

Every style is different to master. I don't really have any tips for you I'm afraid. Just listen to orchestral and or classical pieces, learn what each instrument can or can't do, and how to simulate that. Use a lot of fades varying velocity levels and tone lengths, vibrato and if you can legato. There are a lot of people who are better at this than I am, and who have better software. I can improve a lot.
There are plenty of good flash games on this site. It'd would be great if this were used in one of them.
