Morning - The Rise of the Sun

"A good rise."

date: June 15, 2008

If I could use this in a flash, I definitely would! There are some great parts to this song that I just fell in love with. It's overall very beautiful, and I agree with Sinjim.
the pizzicato was great and sounded very real; I could see this in a carefree moment of flying, or ..rising, in any good motion picture.

Hahaha, thanks. It's an honor to hear that my song is worthy of a motion picture!

Late Night Club

"1.87?"

submission: Late Night Club
date: June 15, 2008

What the fuck. Better a 2.57, eh?

It's a pretty okay song, though the piano is a little too loud sometimes. The melody is good, and I like the nice beat to it. Other than that, I think it's pretty okay.

Gosta loves the zeros. Thanks for the kind comments, Alt. I'll take a look into lowering the piano a tad. Glad you enjoyed this one.

Yang - Spirits Loop

"5'd it to up the vote"

date: June 15, 2008

It's great for what you were trying to achieve. Reminds me a little of Fort Minor, minus the oboe(?) in the back.
I agree with all 3 reviews below, thought sirtom definitely had something I agree strongly with. I certainly got the feel of the song, and it's great. The good thing is that it doesn't get tiring too quickly, which is a major plus on all loops.

Apples OST

":D:D"

submission: Apples OST
date: June 15, 2008

This has such a great, kiddish feeling to it. It lifted my spirits, which I didn't even know were a bit down.
Also, I think the kazoo sounds hilarious! I don't think I knew what it sounded like before this.
This is pretty impressive for the feel you were trying to achieve--and everything was well played, the quality and mixing was great, the list could go on..
Basically to say, I love this. Instant fave. :D

Well Take the Sky

"Wonderful diversity :)"

submission: Well Take the Sky
date: June 15, 2008

There isn't too much, it's okay. Sometimes I do think the instruments could be used a little better, but it may have upset the balance you have right now. It does kind of sound Irishy-SteamWizard, I now officially announce it's validity(if that's a word) as a word.
The bass is the only thing that really sounds off compared to the rest of the instruments. Maybe a different bass..wood? This particular electric bass is too solid, not enough reverb.
Now the percussion. It's beyond awesome.
You song, overall, has a very good rhythm to it, a comfortable feel, and as you said, it's a pretty good listen.

hmmmm, i was trying to get a bass that sounded like that bass they used in all the songs from brave fencer musashi, i think im closer but your right its still off, i dont know what they did for the bass in the songs for that game but it was amazing, and id love to have that sound in some of my work

Bracksta - Falling Off

"Huh."

date: June 13, 2008

Whoa, it looks like you got bombed pretty badly. Was 1.84, now it's 2.34.
This isn't so bad, it's just not my taste. The beat was pretty good, but the darkish ambient sounds in the back didn't really suit most of the song.
I mostly liked the beginning, kind of like a plain hamburger until later you realize there's some veggies in it.
Everything was perfect in general; it's just it's not so catchy :\

"Wow.."

submission: .life.
date: June 13, 2008

I love the beginning. The melody was very nice and sweet, however I'm going to have to say that there was too much damp pedal. The damp, reverb effect was a little too much.
The the beat came in at a good time. Nice and relaxing, just flowing with the sounds. Perfect music for when I space out.
Ha, sad excuse for a lack of inspiration. What the hell is that supposed to mean? I love your little description :D This piece touched me. I think it's the repetitiveness that I loved the most, and how those small sounds come to add in nicely, just finding their way in. Living life:)

Author's Response:

Yeah, I always tend to go a bit overboard with the reverb :P

I added in the bit about sad excuse for lack of inspiration because I know there's going to be some people who complain about it being repetitive, probably more so than some of my other submissions. I'm glad you liked the song; thanks for the review :)

Fantasia Nocturne No.1

"Overall, I get the feel."

date: June 13, 2008

The only problem is that sometimes, a lot of the notes (mostly the slightly repeating lower keys) don't seem to match up, as if unintentional.
The reverbing on the piano is good, though. This had an okay feel on me. I agree with Musical-Pants on the dark castle theme, but a bit lighter because sometimes the piano arps went out of key, and it wasn't as pleasant.
Lol, now I feel like I have this creepy dark feeling in my room.

Author's Response:

its all intentional the disonance of the un matching ness causes it to have that mysteriousness.

BellFucker's Lullaby

"What's up with the title?"

date: June 12, 2008

To start out, I'm gonna keep it short this time ;)
The beginning was quite intriguing, and mysteriously cute-sounding. It's the bells, they do that. o.o
That vocal bit came right on time, however, the synth immediately after that didn't really suit the song until the later arps came in. And when they did, they brought this awesome bass with them.
About the beat? I don't even have to say it. The beats in your songs are LEGENDARY. They own.
Sounds like a decent amount of work was put into this. And you know what else? Random--I love that little airy, industrial bit that you put at the end of your songs--it gives it that not-yet-finished-but-actually-finishe d tone to it, and that cycerin touch :P
[okay..I kept it RELATIVELY short :D]

"I can't believe no one's taken the time to review!"

date: June 12, 2008

Those stupid bastards.

This is very impressive for your first ambient piece. It's very calming and relaxing, but not enough to make to snooze off right away, which is good.
I have to say, I was amazed right from the start. Relaxing rhythm, easy bass, wonderful small melodies. The waves were a great touch, as well.
A 10 all in itself. Lovely ending, too.
I am thoroughly impressed. No criticism from me! :D
