[omni world [REMIX]]

Ahh... much better.

You have much better drum works in this piece compared to the first one. Good job on the whole percussion aspect.

As mentionned before, this song could use a bit more melodies and diversity. I really thought that the remix would be something completely different though. Like upbeat crazy stuff or something.

I guess you wanted a better version of this song here. Why wouldn't you, i mean it's a good song and a better version wouldn't hurt anyone :D

Good job on this song, keep up the good work!

zerofalse responds:

thanx man. yeah, i wanted to improve on this song eventually. there were these little imperfections so to speak about the first one that made me cringe when i heard it and i was thinking "i gotta change this" lol. anyway thx for the reveiw man. ill still work on mastering my music, and makeing it a little longer and stuff =)

[Labyrinth of Despair -SotS-]

This is really nice.

Saw your add on the forums, thought i'd check it out.

This is a really nice piece. I really liked the first part, before you started playing on the high notes. There were some instances that were somewhat wierd, like when you have the same note repeating twice in a row, it didn't sound to good to my ear. The rest was good though.

This is a really nice thought out idea. And a surprising result, thankfully i can't really tell it's that song until the middle part.

Good job on this song, keep submitting to ng mate :)

ScionOfTheStorms responds:

Thank you very much, Fine sir. This review has definatly made my Day.

And keep up the great work on Reviewing peoples Audeo Work :D

[+"Where is Clair?"+ Rythim Man]

Holy crap!

That song is amazing, yeah the first part is pretty familiar, where is from exactly?

Oh my, the song is so nice, i especially like all the little "fill ins" like the flute and such. This track is so diversified, and it also has a little "castlvania" charm to it.

Keep up the great work man and thanks for reviewing my music. And have a 5 why don't you.

Rythim-Man responds:

As much as the first part sounds familiar, I wouldn't know what it's from. For this song I actually tried something new. The first 2 measures of flute were random notes that I put in, then I felt that the melody seemed familiar, yet still nice. Then I played it over again with piano, adding into the equation harmony. I felt that it was dark enough for the theme I wanted to portray. After I found my melody and harmony, I put every orchestra sound I had together to finish the theme.

This is not a remix, even though at first it may sound like it. (I actually get that "where is this from" comment alot from this song)

I put extra effort into this, and it shows since this is my top rated song so far. Thanks for reviewing my good song and not one of my crappy ones.

Like I said before, my inspiration was believing I had lost a friend (and back when it happen I had extra care for my friends...don't ask what changed). I may be inspired to make one more orchestral piece before I set sail to my new home (I'm not really sailing and i'm not really changing residency, I'm just going away for school lol). Infact...the thought of going away just may be my inspiration....

And thanks for having such awesome music. I want to hear more some time, so~

Keep on keepin' on!

[Misantropia]

Pretty good!

Like everyone said, the recording quality really hurts this piece alot. I'm not really fan of this kind of music but i can get passed that and judge it for what it is.

I really like the little solo in the middle you had there. I would have liked a little more diversity o the drums though. The voice is ok, i couldn't make out one word of what you were saying but that's ok :D

If this weren't so glitchy and had a normal/good recording quality, i'd say this piece deserves a 4/5.

darkkloud responds:

thanks, im woprking on redoing this piece, with better rcording quality.

[Progenitor]

It's ok for a first.

Well this is good for a first submission. The only thing is that it is way too much repetitive. One thing that i think is crucial though, don't make all your instruments play the same melody. Have the bassline play one thing and then have the strings play something different. Then have the guitar play something else. It's ok/good to have some instruments play a few of the same notes at the same time, like they just connected and then go back their seperate ways.

I think that you should make your tracks a little shorter too, because you are new to this and i think that you should concentrate on creating a song instead of working on the song's lenght.

The ending is pretty weird, with the "crash" because there are no crash sounds anywhere else in the song you know you can put some like at every 8 or 16 bar or more frequently if you wish.

A little drum variation could be good, like you have your main pattern and then at the 4th bar put in some extra snares and hi hats just to keep things interesting.

But for what it is, a first song, it's pretty ok. You used alot of samples and you didn't just threw things randomly.

So keep at it, you will get much better with time and practice.

G9 responds:

Thanks man... the song is very repetitive, and I do agree with your point of the bassline playing different from the other tracks... the ending was kind of abrupt/weird, but I didn't know how else to end it. :P Thanks for the tips, I'll apply them to my next song.

Thanks,
G9

[FFMQ - Doom Castle]

Hell yeah!!!

These are some good'ol memories of that old SNES game. Yeah the game sucked comapred to all the others. There were a few good songs like this one and the boss battles.

This is an excellent remake, did you get new samples or something? And what is going on with the awards thingy? You have to tell me all about it :D

Oh and could i request my favorite song from this game wich is the final battle of the game, i just like the song so much.

Fifen'd for great justice. See you later.

Grumbleduke responds:

I haven't had any new samples; I just went to town on a good song! I've used more synth tracks in this sing than any other though, even the FF9 Battle.

I'll keep people posted about the award I could be winning; I believe the actual AVN awards happen in January, so there's a long way to go my friend. Atm it's just a pre-nomination; it doesn't count for anything yet. I'm still hopeful though :).

Yes, the FInal Battle is also a good one; really catchy, just like this one. What a sucky final boss too; easy as Yu Yevon, done in the same way!

[Rise of the Machines {Loop}]

Pretty nice!

I see that you are improving on your music. Keep it up.

The only thing i'd change is the sample you used at the beginning, the one called "glitchy".

I have to agree with Zenon, this song could be a bit longer as i see a lot of room for "melody changes" and other tranformations.

But you are on the right track so don't stop now.
4 out of 5 from me, Super Drummer.

itsameyayo responds:

Thanks much!

[§Arbiter§ - Dark Winds]

This one is great as well...

but i prefered the other one. Mainly because of that little part where you have the pan flute or thing followed by the bells. That was my least favorite part of the song.

So tell me what's next after that? Are you going to make more VG remakes/remixes or are you going to go for a composition of your own?

I'd really like to see the second one happening.

Exellent song. And if nobody told you, welcome to newgrounds :)

Arbiter responds:

I'm not into remixes/remakes.
It's 100% original material, and so it will continue to be.
And I've been greeted already, but thanks :)

Best of Wishes; Christian S (Arbiter)

[§Arbiter§ - Arise of Loth]

Superb is all i can say really.

The beat is solid and the instruments all sound pretty good. I think i recall renting that game once but it was so long ago that i don't remember any of it.

The only thing that i'd change in this piece is the long silence at the end. I think it could be a little bit shorter. The rest is simply fantastic.

There isn't really much more that i can say here except for good work, keep it up. And thanks for dropping by my page and leaving me a review.

Arbiter responds:

Actually, This isn't attached to the old RPG game, The first time I heard about it was from you now.
This IS my own work.

Anyways, Thanks for all your feedback.
Apprieciated.

[Redemption Lost - Loop -]

I don't remember this one...

A remix of what song is it exactly?

This songs is awesome, all it needed was maybe a little bell somehwere just to give it that little something.

For the rest, everything is crystal clear and well organised. I really like the flute sample you have running in the background.

This could really be used for some battle theme or epic tale intro, the way i see it.

I quite fancy this piece of music and download and i vote the fifen :D

Nice work again on this song, keep it up.

Grumbleduke responds:

Go look at the "ngaudioartists" profile (or search the name in the AP) to find out where the original came from. All shall be made clear...

I just wanted to make a version of it that looped, and put it under my own profile, so here it be.
