you, my friend

have mastered he art of developing a song. It was flawlessly composed, although introducing e melody a lttle it sooner could hav added to the complexion of the whole iece, because it did sound almost....too diverse, if that is possible.The climax did tie everything together nicely though. I will be lookin for more submissions by you in the near future

DavidOrr responds:

Tahnks a lot for the kind words! It means quite a bit comming from someone like you!

I do like fans

Your intro was odd, to say the least. You should try creating your own basslines and not relying so heavily on preset sytrus samples. You say that you have been only doing this for under a year, and for that I applaud you. My first year, well it pretty much sucked, but i developed the passion. It seems you know enough about chords and what sounds nice to make a name for yourself here. I look forward to seeing your prgression

IamMark responds:

Hah hah yeah, styrusFun was the last of the sequence songs I will do. It's just that i got them when i upgraded to FL4 from 3.5 and had not played with them yet. You can't do too much with sequences because otherwise your songs will all sound the same. Kinda like the similarity from this song and scarcity. I do have some bass lines made, just no melody to go with them yet. Thanks for the review

Im glad your title...

said exactly how this song was going to sound. Sytrue is nice, but formulating a whole song around it requires a little more diversity.
You can look at my looming abyss song, i did it all with sytrus. The melody was too basic-not really there. Im glad you incorporated more instruments, but they did little to add to the feel of a song. You def should have ended it when the synth went solo after like three minutes

Then it just starts to drag.....
You know what your doing, you will see improovement

IamMark responds:

Yeah I know it kinda dragged a bit, but I was being a little stubborn about changing it since I wanted people to hear where I made the changes from how it started. I can't do too much with sytrus since i need a faster computer so I had to stay pretty basic. But since my songs are starting to get more complex I will need to upgrade pretty soon. Just keep in mind I have been at this for less than a year and my progress is a lot more now than when i started. Thanks for the review RyeGuy, You are one of my favorite artists on here already and just getting a review from you makes me happy.

What do we have hear

Interesting....but not really my cup of tea. Lacks the wuality of a good song. The string was cool for a little bit, but grew on my nerves greatly towards the end. And the electric piano was off key. The tsO4( its been a while since i used Fruity Loops) was cool, but it should have been the lead longer, and not the shitty sounding strings and bells and such. That is all

SolusLunes responds:

For three years I have been trying to figure out what "wuality" was.

I finally understand that you mean Quality. :D

And this is why warcraft II pwned warcraft III

I had forgotten how this games music kicked ass. I mean, is it not the perfect mood for a battle? You did a good job reinterpreting it, although some of the power was lost in the transaction. needs some timpanis to go with the tubaish part. Thanks for bringing back the memories

1337Chaos responds:

Yes, I know lots of power was lost and I might do something about it if this computer actually had a real CPU. Too many soft synths turn this song into a crunchy slideshow ='(

Kick Ass?

It really was very battly. Much better then my recent battle attempt...garbage. The synth you used was great. Woah! What the hell? it just ended, i was just started getting into yet. this is what it feels like to have someth

Weapongod30 responds:

Yea...(scratches the back of his head) well anyways, thx for your review!

O wow

I do like this kind of music.
The kind of synth-dramatic style, it suits me well. In fact, it suits everything well. The bass was too loud at some points, although everything else was pretty much flawless. The drums were almost noexsistent. I think if ou had a flute play with the higher pitch synth it would be SICK. Try it, trust me, it would get the effect you were going for. Then throw in some trombones to play with the timpani...oh shit, this song has sooooo much potential. i would have a field day remixing this

curriemaster responds:

Hehe RyeGuyHead, if you want to remix this song, feel free! Just let me hear the final mix. Im glad you like it, I shall try out some flutes and trombones with it and see how it sounds. Thanks for the review!

Well shit...

I thought this would be like a tranformer battle theme. Oh well. Omikron, interesting, dont quite see it, in fact, you caught me so off guard by the name, i forgot to listen.
Ok starting from the Osc sound playing the melody

It had some nice ambience. Cant quite put my finger on what the hell kind of sound you had playing the beat, but it was interesting touch. Nice bassline, and the chirping synth was used well. I liked it, although you tricked me....you sneaky bastard

DrMontigo responds:

The name was pretty random... I just chose it because I have so much trouble thinking them up myself.

The beat was just a bass drum and a triangle, if you listen to my other stuff it won't take long to realise my drumbeats are a bit naff. I figured this time to scrap anything too complex :)

As for the chirping it took AGES. I'm glad you noticed! Maybe next time just a better name :P

Needs a tambourine

Then it would be bearable. But now, its just hurtful.

ZYX3D responds:

Sorry, I did not mean to hurt anyone :) I'll try the tambourine for a three-voice or two (chorded) plus percussion, but right now I'm having some trouble with waveform and modulation. If sounds like a (something kind of) tambourine, volume is lost :(
Nothing that can't be done with more time, I suppose, but I hope I'll have more time to work with more versions. KTHX.

Interesting

Hit some odd notes on the pads in the beginning, mainly the wire pad, i dunno maybe it comes back later. But the drums and efects you had going on overtop of it were very nice. Is that a water drop i hear? It was pretty nice once the drums started up, although the kick should have had a different beat, that wasnt so basic. I dont nkow, the whole bass and drums could have used some more improovement. Wasn't really much of a melody going on during the whole song, but it sounded sick anyways. Very Miscellanious indeed.

Rucklo responds:

Hmmm, not sure what odd notes were there, but odd is good, often :D
The water is simply from the first pad I created, the first notes u hear is from the same pad (including the "dripping" sound).
The beat has more to it if you just sit down and actually listen to it, i can allmost assure you that. This is the kind of song that requires a little more listening, it aint that easy listening, really...
I was experimenting with the bass, and came to the conclusion it was better I kept it in the background in the overall mix. The song starts with the a low pad (wich i mentioned earlier) and since u hear it so clear, i feel its not nessecary to make the lower fq stand out more than it does.
I suggest u put on headphones and listen to the song again, and hopefully u´ll get a new experience the second, third and fourth time u hear it? :D
Anyway, thanx alot for reviewing, and for the good critisism!
