"Not bad"

submission: Mistake (instrumental)

date: July 19, 2006

You guys can play your instruments with some skill, which is (sadly) better than a lot of bands on Newgrounds.

I would strongly suggest you guys pool together 50 pounds and buy a better mic. You would sound much better if you did that.

I'm going to go ahaid and 5 all your stuff in hopes you get more feedback by people. Keep at it!

"Good job"

submission: -SOES-Arkis

Another well written piece. You seem to have a very good understanding of what elements of music can portray certain feelings, because I could see this piece as music for when some cult is casting a curse on one of their victims, or sometime along those lines.

Again, you need better samples. What sequencer and samples are you using currently? If you are at all interested in getting new samples (or hearing what the piece would sound like with new samples) PM me.

Good job once again!

5/5

"A nice addition to the SOES collection"

submission: -SOES-Sharlak

I enjoyed listening to this. You desperately need some new orchestral samples, but besides that, the piece had a lot of great parts written into it.

It seems that many people that write this kind of music are afraid to use brass. The brass can really give a piece that punch I think you're looking for.

Adding in some french horns or trumpets to accent some of the melodies would really improve the piece.

Great job!

5/5

"Nicely done!"

submission: Nightmare Equinox

date: July 19, 2006

At the beginning I was growing a bit tired of the bells, I would shorten that a bit, or introduce something in a little sooner. It wasn't a big issue though, I didn't find it to get anoying, which is always a good thing.

I have a big soft spot for choirs, and when I heard them in hear the piece grew on me in an instant. The guitar was also masterfully played, the bends were great, and the whole part fit perfectly.

I'm a fan of bands like Sonata Arctica, Masterplan and Symphony X, so it's no surprise that I enjoyed this too!

Keep up the great work!

"Great!"

submission: SMB: Underworld REMIX [fix]

date: July 19, 2006

Big improvement! You've got the rhythms correct this time. The beginning cymbals (or whatever that was clicking) were off a bit, but to be honest I don't know how many people will pick up on that I've seen a lot worse rhythmic flubs in very highly regarded music.

Good job, I can't wait to see your next!

5/5

"Good job"

submission: A Cold Wind

date: July 19, 2006

The ending was astounding, musically. You need more instruments, and different parts.

You posses a lot of good qualities that could potentially set you up to be a film composer someday. How serious are you with music?

Score: 10

"Hmmm"

submission: A Journey From Old to New

date: July 19, 2006

This piece wasn't very good. The rhythms were off, some of the notes clashed, tempo was off. The piece has that beginner sound to it.

That said, I think you have a lot of great musical ideas, and may be able to develop into an astounding composer. Your music had all of the right elements a piece needs, you simply need to master the software your using.

Send me a PM if your interested in getting some musical guidance by me. I'm extremely busy, but there is something about you I really like, and would be willing to take some time to help you improve.

What sequencer and samples are you using?

5/5

(I'm going to go 5 all of your stuff, it would be great to see you to get more feedback from some more musicians)

"Very interesting"

submission: Piano Piece OP #1

date: July 19, 2006

Had a modern feel with the intonalitied, but still felt harmonically stable in places.

I'm going to have to agree with WinTang on this one and say I liked the high note (sorry Rucklo). I've always like repetitive notes like that, as long as the music is developing around the note, and not just repeating.

Great job!

5/5

"Nice job!"

submission: ~|Affectionate Moment|~

date: July 19, 2006

Very calming piece! Watch out for clashing notes, they creep in here and there, but aren't too much of an issue.

I would recommend adding a little diversity to your instrument choice. It gets a little boring with just strings. Add in a flute, a harp, some woodwinds other than the flute, even some brass.

Are you going to release your game on newgrounds? What language are you using?

5/5

"Great work!"

submission: Cloud 9.1b

date: July 19, 2006

You've got such a diversity in styles, it really shows that you have a talent for music. It is much easier to make good music in one specific genre, but when you are able to write good music in a variety of types, it really shows the making of a well rounded musician.

I really need to get aruond to checking out more of your stuff!

5/5
