The Scene is PERFECT
I don't need to say much, all of the people below me have already said everything that I could say! The scene you created is just what it needs to be!
You have done a tremendous job! Keep up great work like this! Thank you for participating in MSC1 and challanging yourself!
<PS>
Wow, thanks PenguinSam. Means alot, coming from you :-)
Digging it!
Heavy metal may not be my style, but that doesn't matter.
I like this a whole lot for depicting a fight scene! I think that having a killer bass would really help this song a whole lot. Same thing with the drums, I feel like they could use some more power. Not right at first, but later on, maybe in the parts that you are considering adding on to this. Some awesome crash cymbals and the like, used well, would do a whole lot!
I see an awesome fight scene coming from this! The guitar has the right tone of distortion to it, so keep up the work! I can really see this doing well! The depiction of a fight scene is spot on!!
<PS>
thaks, since this is a raw cut, its not the final song, ill see what i can fo about the bass.
Wonderful!
This is a great ending credits song for "Living Lotus" and a fine piece overall.
However, I do have to say that it seems like there is a bit too much going on. I constantly think that the music has just a bit over the line of "too much in your face goodness", kind of like a turkey that is too much stuffing and not enough turkey, if that makes any sense at all.
I do like the piece as an overall; it has a great sense of power and victory. A wonderful piece, no doubt.
Thank you for participating in the Movie Score Collaboration!
<PS>
Haha, I know exactly what you mean! I'm glad I could participate in the Collaboration! I think you have a pretty good idea going on there!
Thank you!
WHERE IS THE BASS???
OH MAN, I really want to give this a 9 or 10, but I can't! There is not enough bass in this song, and it is driving me crazy!!
I understand that there are several moments in this piece where there is no need for bass, but a the full orchestrated hits, the chords are needing those lovely bass notes.
I hear some bass near the begining, but after about halfway through, it just disapears! The bass would really help with the images of a tyrant and power.
I do love the melodies, rhythms, and tonalities that are used, they are beautiful! And they do create the images that you are aiming after. And the overall mood of the piece is very enjoyable as well.
However, you need more bass! Bass is very pleasing to the ear, and is loved by many people in several styles of music (think of a car blasting music, all you can hear is bass!).
So PLEASE, add bass to this song! Those lovely low notes will really increase the overall effect and power of this piece. I want to love this piece, but it saying "oh hello, please like me if it isn't too much of a hassle" instead of "LOVE ME!!!!!!" That will really give me a run for my money in the contest. ;)

lol it isnt like a techno song, i cant just chuck a sick reese bass in there LOL.Yeah thanks, i understand what u mean though lol.
A great blend, not perfect, but truely fantastic!
Now this is refreshing! Such a great blend of styles, coming together to create beauty.
However, there are some very minor things I don't like about this sloop. First thing, is that's it's a sloop. I would love to hear an actual ending that doesn't just leave the listener just hanging there. A build down from what is currently the end would be wonderful. Also, I didn't like the piano bends at 0:47ish. It's an approprate effect, but I thing you could have chosen a sound that is made to bend such as an electronic sound.
The song, sorry, sloop is an overall great piece. The drums make the atmosphere so unique, and just lovely! I also really apprecitate the fact that it's about stars and snow (well, it was snowing). I don't get much snow where I live, so I can't help but like that!
Really great! Fanastic original sloop!
<PS>
Thanks!
With the piano bend, I was going for a "falling star," and I felt like I wanted to keep the simplicity and beauty of the piano. But I do appreciate your feedback. It's good to know what my listeners like or dislike about my artistic choices.
Thanks for the support! ^_^
Very nice
I really like this one! It has such a fun feel to it that I really like.
However, there are some changes that I would suggest. The transistion between the two feels was almost to sudden. It works, but could be better. You might try having the croaking and crickets starting sooner to help bridge the gap a little more, either that or even the bass. Just some ideas. Also, I was expecting the song to go back to the original feel. I bet you are planing to do that in the final version. ;)
I do have a suggestion for a title as well. "Amazon". I see water in this song, especially with all of the arps in the begining. And the croaks and chirps really sold the idea of the Amazon River to me. More croaks and chirps might be a great idea for 2:00ish to the end. I really do see a river in this song.
It already sounds amazing! I just wish that it went back to the orginal feel at the end, kink of like "Welcome To The Wild", execpt there are animal sounds in the background instead of a roaring crowd. :)
This sound great! I can't wait to hear the final product!
<PS>
I love your ideas man!
Hell yeah Amazon would be a great name for this song! Or perhaps something like... Amazonia? WOOT! :P
Thanks a lot for the review bro.
Great!!!
This is just what I was looking for! The drum beat is absolutely perfect!
What would really impress me is to see, er hear, some bongos or congos with some tambourine (spelling?).
The melody is not so great, so I can't review this too high...
I'm impressed! Thanks for posting the demo!
<PS>
That's okay.
Hic-ups!
I usually don't listen to this style of music, but this was good!
My only real "complaint" is that the choir sounded like they had hic-ups the entire time! You may want to consider changing that part to another sound or instrument.
The choir holding out chords was really cool!
Keep up the work!
<PS>
danks man
Very nice!
I just love the way you use the percussion in all of your songs! Especialy with this one! It just fits so perfectly!
Great job, and I can't wait to see collabs with you and Alisa!
<PS>
HEY BRO! So sorry for such a late response, tyvm for the support!
Im gonna go answer all your PMs asap!
Nice work!
I must say, you painted the picture perfectly. I can see this is a video game for sure!
Now for some criticism.
It is repetitive, but that's okay! It is a loop, and they are supposed to be repetitive. However, in order to be interesting there has to be things changeing in the background, sounds, harmonization, and melody, and you did just that! So kudos in that regard!
Now, this is a loop. That means that the begining and the end need to meet up, which they dont on this track. The fade in the melody at the end is not characteristic of a great loop. Plus, there was about half a beat missing in the last measure that completely throws off the groove entirely! You turned the last 4/4 bar into a 7/8 or some sort of 15/16 bar. Either way, it feels like it missed the last touch to lead back into the begining and that is probably because the audio cut off just a tad too early. Please fix that!
I found this loop very enjoyable, but it had one technical problem and it didn't quite hit that spot.
Good job!
<PS>
Thanks for stopiing by to review!
Yes, the looping thing was pretty difficult to do, I sounds like I need to improve it some more! D:
Anywho, I thought it was a sucessful first attempt, all those years of Dance Music Making made me a bit too Dancey! D:
I am a young composer living in the United States. Most of my music is slow, lyrical, dark, emotional, and programatic. I however am a very upbeat and happy person. Quite the interesting contrast, isn't it?
