I like how the synths have a retro VG feel about them, and the drums have a nice punch to them. The scratching kind of digs it into the hip hop style well, and it sounds really cool and fresh. Nice chilled beat, even if it's a little repetitive.
Good job.

This is kind of ambience without conventional tunes, it's weird, but it has a cool creepy ambient vibe about it. Nice background music, it'd sound good in a flash. I agree that length could be extended and the volume could be turned up, but other than that, it's a weird unique ambient track. Nice work on simplicity.

The organ/piano combination was nice. The melody and panning were done well. A little soft in a couple of places, but as a whole, it's a solid track.
Good job.

Nice smooth techno. Kind of reminded me of snowboard kids. The synths were cool (lol no pun intended thar!), the progression is great, it rolls through the song pretty well, it's nice and easy to listen to. Great work.

The silence is a little awkward, but with the build up, it's kind of fitting. It has a nice repetitive kind of slow beat to it. I like it, it's different. I agree with NintendoMadness that you could add in a different part to mix it up a bit.
It's a cool loopable song. Nice work.

This is my favourite of yours. Sampling is funky, the beat is cool, the music is smooth. It all blends really well. It's a nice sweet song. Great stuff. The vocals add another layer to an otherwise repetitive track, so I didn't notice it getting too repetitive. I loved the robotoid voice, that was a nice touch.

It's pretty unpredictable, but that concept of not being ably to predict where the next burst of sound is going to come from make it pretty cool to listen to. I think it'd be pretty hardcore if you chucked in a mad reese bass and turned the bpm up a fair bit so that it's total insanity.
Good work.

It's very soft...
I think the bassline could have been turned up a fair bit and the lead up a little bit. It's pretty good for a straight cover, but I think it needs a bit more filling out, it's a fancy pants song, you can go nuts, maybe have another variation of the lead lower down, chuck the bass down the octave, and add in a few more layers to the lead (maybe an octave higher) as the song progresses. Meh, I'm just doing my thing picking out how I'd like it to sound. It's got that SMB charm, light, happy, nothing aggressive, so I guess the softness works out. Nostalgia indeed ^_^
*jumps up and hits block. Coin appears. <bling!>*

Thanks. I know that I could have made it more jumpy, but the last time I added an extra instrument in to liven it up, it destroyed the song and I had to do it over again. I fondled with the keys abit on this one, they are custom-edited for this song.
It is plain, but I've grown to like that.
But thanks for your review.

I'm not sure about the "digital abuse" voice sampling, that kinda stands out too much from the rest of the mix, I don't think it really fits. Bu the beats and the rhythmic synths are cool. I think a high lead would have brought the song out more, and if you mixed that up a bit, that'd probably tone down the repetitiveness of it all. But overall, it's a great catchy song, I felt my head nodding to it as I listened, so it's a job well done.
Cheers.

Your latest works have been impressing me. The mixing has been a lot better,instruments are spot on. Great work, keep it up.
Although, if I were to offer some constructive crit here, it would probably be to add some middle-low end slow strings in there for a bit of added depth, other than that, it's great. One for the BVG collab.

Sweet, thanks. I have had alot of time to practice in my time gone.
Your suggestion has been noted. I used an Esemble instead of a shot in this one.
