[EEK! + Lockyn - Glacier Galaxy]

I've come to notice that the only dubstep growls ever heard in your songs are in collabs. Maybe one of these days, you could get really creative with Sytrus and create some sort of growl bass (or do it the easier way with Harmor or Serum...). That seems like a cool idea.

Btw, nice job, you two.

Lockyn responds:

Sytrus is great for basses, I just never learned how to properly do it. It hasn't really been my main focus when producing, I like the long active melodies.

[Aztech + Lockyn: Soulwind]

You know, whenever you collaborate with someone, it's hard to tell who did what in it.

Nice song, btw.

Lockyn responds:

This one was arranged by me, drums/lots of synths/fx/lots of melodies were me. The string-like lead at the drop/chorus, the flute synth, the syncopated low-mid plucky synth in the second drop, and the breakdown section was Aztech.

[Azure (Original Mix)]

Man, I don't even know how you manage to consistently make tracks >5 minutes long! I can harrdly make it to 4 minutes without making it sound stupid.

Great song, btw. Don't know why I've been able to avoid this one for so long.

[EXTRA TIDBIT] It's hard to create even ONE synth that reflects your style without using Sytrus (or any other form of FL plugin).

Lockyn responds:

Hey, glad you enjoyed! Sytrus is such a great tool. Cheers!

[Little Thingie Don't Judge Me]

Very nice.

Also, picking the trance option would be a lot closer here.

SAMFISH responds:

really? it's not much like trance...

[Tempest]

Man, how do you make this stuff?!

SAMFISH responds:

Listen and learn! I've really gotten into designing film scores from listening to Two Steps from Hell, and various show/movie OSTs :D

[Madeline Juno - The Unknown [Orchestral Cover]]

One word.

YES!!!!!!!

SAMFISH responds:

Thanks! Did you know this song's original? I love that song. Her voice is beautiful and she sings with such emotion!

[Time Out]

Very nice.
