a neat melody going on here again, quite pleased with it.

I can hear a very powerful violin for this piece Harddrive, my greatest suggestion for you, is to not only use the piano, but some strings as well, why? Because the strings such as a viola/violin/fiddle, are the pianos best friend, the two sing together very well.

Having long extended notes playing in the background, will provide some background to fall back on, and a platform of stability for the piano notes itself, not to mention only furthar the piano's power.

Otherwise, pretty cool.

4/5 this time Harddrive ^^, keep them coming.

Score: 10

submission: Battle Theme #17

date: February 9, 2006

this song, like all your other battle themes are drastically moving.

Where do you come up with the ideas for them?

I have really nothing to suggest, I love it the way it is ^^. Of course, I think you should get some better sound samples, but pfft, who cares bout that now, just keep them coming!

Ending was a bit abrupt, I think you should either make it REALLY abrupt so that it loops well, or give it a fuller, better ending.

5/5 from me again.

Score: 8

submission: Yet Another Rockish tune

date: February 9, 2006

god lok at this, in the span of a week 4 new songs for me to listen to! Huzzah I say to myself!

Onto the review!

Heh, quite classical rock indeed, it has a very nice dungeony kind of air to it, reminds me of Lunar, Silver Star Story for some reason. It was my first RPG, and I still love it to death today.

The melody is nice, it didn't get me into it right away, but thats probably cuz i'm not too deep for Classical Rock ^^.

Still, a 4/5 from me Reone, keep them coming ^^.

Score: 10

"Great stuff"

submission: The Falling(still in progress)

date: February 9, 2006

I liked the feel, very raw and moving, as most heavy metal is ^^.

I would have liked to see some more work on the drums man, a song like this DEMANDS some spine snapping drum beats!

Still, I loved the feel for it, quite skilled. I especially like it when you bring in tha tother guitar and have it play that melody, I really liked that! REALLY liked it, I would like to hear that expanded, and worked on ^^.

5/5 from me again kensmalts, keep them coming ^^.

Score: 9

"Quite impressed."

submission: WeepingSouls

date: February 8, 2006

wow, from four notes eh...

Heh, I have a song like that, from four notes played at the same time actually, however I know how you feel, sometimes I hear a few notes at random, and then I expand on it LIKE CRAZY. Most of the tunes never come to life, but heh, i'm glad you were able to.

It's a great piece, though I feel you should use a compresser, it distorts in some places, gets a bit too loud.

I am glad you did not use any flangers or use any percussional work here (though maybe a simple snare roll might sound neat), it keeps the song intact.

Good job IamMark

4/5 from me, keep them coming ^^.

Score: 8

submission: <|>: Silly Babbitt Tricks

date: February 8, 2006

gotta be honest Tritone, I was wondering if you had lost your mind... wtf was he thinking I was saying, then I read the reviews, did a bit of snooping, and figured out what Atonal pieces were all about.

So my opinion has changed, your an accomplished person to play such a piece. How you were able to survive such a barrage of intense sounds i'm not sure :P.

No offense good sir, I almost started a hunt to find and destroy your keyboard, "blasphamy" I would scream, and burn it ^^.

Still, a 5/5 from me... for skill... 1/5 for listenability X_x.

Score: 8

"Good stuff."

submission: (Harddrive100) Saddness

date: February 8, 2006

you have quite the ear Harddrive, I would like to congratulate you for that, there are few with it.

I feel you should use a play on octaves here, you have a nice deep piano melody going, now if you add some high pitched piano notes, preferrably, a little faster then the low notes, to give it more "energetic" sadness.

I know you plan to use piano alone for many of your pieces, but then I must ask you to add more variety in the notes you put in the piano. It has a great beginning, but it could be much more.

However that is entirely up to you to decide, after all, you are the creator, and I am just the suggester ^^.

4/5 from me Harddrive, keep them coming ^^.

Score: 9

"Good stuff"

submission: (Harddrive100) Devastation

date: February 8, 2006

oh wow! I love the quick melody being played here. It does indeed sound devestated, but I feel it could use a lot more instruments, devestating pieces usually have violins to symbolize unbearable pain, whilst slow, stretched brass instruments will symbolize ongoing, slow pain and devestation.

I think this song is quite great, keep them coming Harddrive100 ^^.

Score: 9

"Good stuff!"

submission: A Dragon's Honor

date: February 8, 2006

those vocal stabs were amazing! Heh, RaustBlackDragon, you remind me of me at an earlier stage, your style is absolutely lovely. I absolutely enjoy the stories your music tells, quite enchanting.

The choir ending was a very drastic change, I liked it, from energetic, to sad, as if the dragon was fighting a fierce fight, and then took a lethal blow to the chest, his comrades see the toppling dragon, and the music picks up again to begin their chase again.

heh, at least this is what I get ^^.

The rather fast piano melody works well in that favour, I would recommend soundfonts for the choirs and instruments, geting some better sounding instruments will do your music a world of good.

Still smashing stuff, 5/5 from me Raust, keep them coming ^^.

Score: 10

"Sweetness"

submission: tF-[Raven]-NG Version-

date: February 8, 2006

I rather liked the feel of this piece tF ^^, it was quite interesting, and it gave me a great warm feeling, just before the energy built up to the point I had to stand up and tear the drapes.

Yeah, its kinda packed with energy ^^, thats a good thing.

I rather like the use of synth sounds, strange combinations that seemed to have worked out, that flanger effect you use for the beginning, was quite interesting.

I just didn't quite like that heavy saw, just going off again and again and again, I can see you wanted to use it for some good bass, but I don't know if its that necessary, perhaps changing it with another synth?

Still, great stuff tF, keep them coming ^^.
