A+ on the title. Playful and inquisitive quality. Gives me hints of optimism. Plucks and punches give it a bouncy feel. :3

FairSquare responds:

Thank you! Very glad you like it :) Hope more will follow in the future

What an awesome project, sounds great and so much fun. Definitely some good work in all of this. Beautiful song to cover, can't stop listening to this collab rendition :) Great job!!

Ceevro responds:

Super happy you liked it! And if you like it, consider participating in the next one! We shall be doing a sea-shanty!

Hello Mister. Always love listening to your voice. :) You + guitar = soothing symphony. (sometimes I sing along in harmony) Recording is great quality too. 5/5 would listen again

FairSquare responds:

How do i only see this now? Thank you! Would love to hear how you are doing :)

This is so satisfying to listen to. Great mix. It didn't even feel that short too! Not much else to say. Awesome.

Quarl responds:

Yay!

I like your melodies and kind of careless swag in this. What concerns me is the filter you have on the entire song. It was well-suited at the beginning and near the ends, but overall the song was muffled and compressed as the mid-high and high frequencies were missing. When the drums came at 0:26 there was opportunity for it to sound big but the cutoff prevents this from happening throughout the song. That's my only advice in regards to production at this point. But if it's all intentional, by all means disregard.

Other than that one thing, like I said the song is jammin, the swing and rhythm is good, and I agree with the below review, this would be great with vocals! Keep at it~

SamTheHare responds:

I tried to make it kind of bass boosted so I had some problems with the compression because when I tried to make the mid-high range brighter the bass and sub-bass turned kind of unperceivable. So yeah, I'm pretty much an amateur with all the mastering stuff and I definitely have to study a little more about it hahaha
I'm happy that you like it and thanks for the advice!

Really liking the energy of this track. It's pretty repetitive but you make it worth listening to the end. I don't have much else to say on this. Snappy snares, balanced kick, catchy tune. Great job, for even a 3 hour effort!

ShockblastDeluxe responds:

Thanks, man. Yeah, it's pretty repetitive, but at least it's bearable, it seems. :D

Sad, lofi, introspective. Clouded over skies, kinda got that monochromatic feel. It's definitely a vibe. I can see this being used for a flashback scene, or even for those documentary shows on serial killers, or some kind of backstory music.
Volume is quite low but I think could be intentional. Would love to see this be expanded on if that's an idea you have for the future.

ForgottenDawn responds:

Thanks! I've been working on the next "NOSTALGIA" album, which uses a similar production. I'm still exploring such possibilities, so all I can say for now is to stay tuned.

Moody, rhythmic, totally something I would play on a drive through the rain, or on cloudy day, or the chill parts of a road trip when I want my own time during the night hours and everyone's asleep haha.

Starting off, you have a great singing voice, it's just perfect for the music you are making, just vibes perfectly. 1:17 harmony was very nice. I see what you did there adding echoes at the end, too, and also the effect on "distance" which does convey the distance. I like the lyrics as well, they're simple and deliver the message well. While the song deals with repetition, it's not bothersome at all.

Glad I came across your music, listening to some others as well rn!

SkankyMojo responds:

Thank you so much, this was a lovely comment to wake up to today. ♥️

Really enjoying the story basis and the song title! The samples are beautiful and the textural changes, along with a strong theme keep the piece worth listening to until the end.

The segment between 4:00-4:29 felt like it could use a little more dynamic change, in terms of volume and intensity; it seemed like it was part that was supposed to build up as it continued, but it got a bit stagnant for the melody and the feeling it was trying to sustain, and the transition into the epicness at 4:33 felt a little weak. In comparison, the transition at 1:58 was really nice, but I think those four notes leading immediately prior could have benefited from a dramatic increase in level (low to high) to introduce that strong performance afterward. The transitions at 3:01 and 3:59 are amazing, and I listened to them twice over just because.

Also, I'm a big fan of recurring themes in people's work, so that got me excited to see the earlier main theme reprise at 5:16! That sustained nicely, until the abrupt ending, which seemed uninspired. Imo, an extra ten seconds to wind it down while still retaining its epicness wouldn't hurt, or maybe it could retain its abruptness by offering a little more finality to the ending (the final notes with the ending cymbal came off weak).

Overall, this is a really great job for your first orchestral piece! The title is esp cool and I enjoyed this a lot. Story pieces are something I can especially appreciate!

Benji-G responds:

Thank you for the review! I highly appreciate it :]

Whoa, really digging the tune. I love how how epic it all sounds, in its own unique way. The drums definitely sound bigger and better in this new version. Gives it more kick.
I'm not sure how, but the transition at 0:18 actually sounds better in the original. I think it has less impact in this version when 0:19 hits. Might be because of the dying note at 0:17 sounds cut off too quickly as if it wasn't finished. This occurs in both versions, but it's more noticeable in this one. Aside from that, the song alone is really awesome. 0:19 to 0:28 is definitely favorite segment. This is going to be stuck in my head all day. :)
As for inspiration, if you're looking to extend it, ( I'm going off the original version, since that one is more 'complete') it could probably benefit by quieting down for a while and then building back up again to end on an epic note, or having an outto similar to the intro, to get that spacey feel back in. Dunno. Go crazy with it!

MetalRenard responds:

Thanks for the feedback! I'll look into your points.
I'm thinking of ways to include vocals, I really want to sing some more. I'm glad you enjoyed the piece so far!
