[_-=[Basking in Dead Light]=-_]

Well look at you...

You've become quite the mister popular. I see alot of gold and it ain't no fool's gold i can tell you that.

All the reviewing you are doing and all the hard work on your music is really paying off isn't it?
Well congratulations on all the good things that are and that will be coming your way.

Now onto the song. It's great XD You tricked me though, with the intro you had and with the title and the description i was expecting something with a little less beat.

At first i saw exactly what you had described "Standing around the dead, the moon, his only source of light, showing him the destruction" but then there was still more destruction to come because the final battle was about to begin - insert big story here -

The only thing that i didn't enjoy as much as the rest of the song is the snare drums. They seem to playing on a too high note. I hope you'll know what i mean. They sound kinda like claps and kinda like drums.

You sure are becoming something big out here on the AP, keep it up :D

MaestroSorrow responds:

cuz its a very very messed up snare drum, argh, how I regret putting that sucker in there, heh, good thing I messed it up here and not... uh... somewhere importantly important.

I didn't mean to trick you XD, sometimes my stories take you by the hand, and just drag you to where they want to go.

Thank you for your review man, means a good deal to me.

[FF8 - The Landing]

Very well executed.

Hey, long time no see, how's everything going for you?
Still working at that same place R18? I'm glad to see that you are still finding time to submit music.

This is actually my favorite piece in all of the FF8 music. It is very well done. I noticed that you didn't put the original intro i'm assuming as to keep the song as a loop. I like your choice of instruments although i would've really liked to hear a flute play a bit of the main melody. If there is well then nevermind, my mistake.

The sound of the cymbals got a bit annoying in the part where they play almost every second but other than that the rest is fine.

Good job on this track and i hope to hear some of your original compositions again/soon/someday :D

Grumbleduke responds:

Hah, I could say the same about you! Where have YOU been ;) ? As for R18, that's a video classification in England, that's basically XXX material that only licenced adult shops can sell it (I know it sucks). But yes I am.
You can thank MaestroSorrow for this one, it was his request. I did leave the intro out so it could loop, yes, and there is a flute line, but it is easily overpowered by the strings and brass that this piece needs for the energy you get from big loud instruments!

Do more music for me too, General!

[_-=[Weeping with the Rain]=-_]

Sad Saderson...

Yup, just as you mentioned in the self ad thread... you are sadness incarnate :D

Great track. That piano reminds me of my track "Melody of the Past" simply because it's in the same pattern more or so.

You have those little sounds playing in the background that should be a little louder. Other than that, everything is good.

This will be playing at my funeral, yea that's just how sad it is :D

You're becoming greater and greater with each track. You really have it, i mean, music is in you. So don't let it out.

5/5 Keep up the great work.

MaestroSorrow responds:

heh, then I might have to kill you General... I may very well have to kill you ^^.

Many thanks for the review.

[freezing cathedral]

Nice song!

I like this very much. The guitar is awesome. The only thing i didn't like was the beat. Not that it's bad but too repetitive. Other than that, great work. You get my 5.

mhb responds:

thanx leo. yeah the drum beat was made with pc drummer just so i could have some backing to it.

[I swear I'm not high--_--]

LOL!

All it needed was the little *click* sound between the suspense part and the happy part.
Still it's so funny... ah being on the forums is so great! LOL great job!

PERVOK responds:

Yes, i searched SO hard for that little 'click' sound but i don't have one...

..but this was good enough :D

Thanks for the review!

[_=[Soul of Viano]=_]

To put it in one word...

Amazing! You guys make an excellent duo. This song is pure beauty. The piano is wonderful. The strings and the choir as well.

This is a great relaxing peace. I hope you guys are planing on making more. Great work guys!

MaestroSorrow responds:

oh we will... we will.

MilkMan_Dan has offered to carry my baby, and though I refuse many many times, he simply won't stop offering.

SO I keep him busy with collabs ^^.

Many thanks for the review.

[ting ting- tung tung- as the_]

Simple yet very good.

I've checked your other pieces and this is the one that i liked the most from you for now. With time you will develop great skills, that i am sure of.

I really liked the intro, and those intruments you used. It would have been good if your strings played another melody instead of the same melody that the lead plays. Or keep the strings as they are and put something else in there just to keep it diverse throughout all the song. Some snares would have been nice too.

It's still a very good song. Keep at it, one day you won't even beleive the great things you'll make.

Dj-Edxtreme responds:

Thanks now i know that im somewhat good at this. XD

[Megaman X3 - Toxic Seahorse]

That's one good mega man song.

I like this song alot. It loops almost flawlessly. The drums volume are too soft in my opinion, i mean i can hardly hear them.

The guitars were good. I feel the song is a bit empty though, because you only have 2 guitars and a drumset. If there is a bass, i can hardly hear that as well. Not your best but still good.
4/5.

Grumbleduke responds:

I'm still getting used to the set-up I just got, so the levels are not perfect by any means. I agree it's not my best; my own stuff is my best :). Because I have to transfer the files from one computer to another, they sound different on each one.

There isn't really a bassline in this piece; just the rhythm and lead. The ryhthm line is supported by a rock organ, that's about as bass as I got. You'll see better form me soon.

[Dry County]

I like the guitar.

It's an ok song to me. The flute intro i liked alot, the guitar too, but the harp melody kind of removed to that "western" theme you want. It felt to me like the desert vs. the ice cave.

It still builds a great suspense/atmosphere. Good work.

P.S. I don't have any connections :(

Grumbleduke responds:

Funny really, the harp is actually the same guitar, just 2 octaves up with modulating pan. OK I admit with two people saying it's not wild western I wrote the description wrong; I should have left it at just "deserty-type scenes", which makes a lot more sense.

[-MrMaestro- The Sounds of Gaia]

LOL :D

This is a good song, but the animal sounds are just funny to me. All of your other instruments sound great.

This is just a preview, i know. If i was doing this song, i would have a good intro, decent in lenght and in that intro i'd have some river sound with your animal sounds and all, but not in the main song (i'm talking before the synths and everything). That's just how i feel about it. Those bells sound really nice, i usually have a problem with bells in songs because i don't feel that they sound natural.

Still this is a good preview. Can't wait for the real thing.

DavidOrr responds:

I agree completely about the animal sounds, I took all but the light wind/river/bird sounds at the beginning...sounds MUCH MUCH better. Hmm, I'll try out the intro you describe, it may work out quite nicely :). Thanks for the suggestions and review!
