I adore FL

Yep, if im not mistaken, thats the 3o3ish sytrus preset, with a few mods of course:}

Nice use too, exept it went on with the same thing too long. You had the lead synth play throughout and didn't give it a break. I like the mellow beat, it just feels like at some point it should be kinda heavy, It would go with synths alot better.

Sounds pretty good.

XeroQ responds:

thanks for the info bro. i'll look into adding synths.

Dramatic

This is very well put to together, and everything seems to fit in place. The only thing that grinds on my nerves is the high pulsing strings at 00:54. I know the effect you were going for, but it just didn't sound right.

I'm interested as to what program you used to do this, at first I was thinking it was Finale 2006-7. Those versions have an incredibly realistic orchestra sound. But then some elements didn't sound like Finale, so I'm just a bit curious.

Sasha-Tarquin responds:

thankyou for your comments on the piece, yeah the high pulsing string have had mixed views in the past .. some people like it some people don't but i appreciate your honesty.

the program i use is East West Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra Gold Pro XP, very realistic when used properly, very good for film scoring.

thanks again

Knowing me i'd probably fall off the cliff...

Ok, you've got something good going on here. I like the beggining, peaceful and what not, and i like how the synth at 00:23 comes in, but i was really expecting that to be accompinied by a beat at somepoint, and it was a bit disapointing.

I love the Guitar tawords the end, that really gave this song the "walking away" feeling you mentioned. Plus it kinda gets you pumped in a way. I think that sounds tight as it is, but maybe some rock drums wouldn't hurt.

Now, I find the the ending just a tad to sudden, I'm thinkin that if you held out that last chord over the cymbal crashes, that would've sounded better.

Overall this is pretty simple in its entirety, but it has a good sound to it, and dont get me wrong, that guitar ending was great, enough so to maybe make it a little longer, should you have the chance, so keep'em comin :}

Very well done

its like R&B and a little rock, which i like!

Didn't know it sounded like that...but cool! Thanks man! ^_^v

A few Clashing chords, and a repetitive drum line

Ok first off, the piano clashes with the main synth quite a bit (chord-wise), plus the main synth is a bit too repetitive. The percussion is another thing that got me. The underlying snares were just too constant and hence annoying.

On the other hand, it is a pretty neat tune, and its not like its the same exact thing over and over. keep it up! :}

Not exactly techno...

But it is pretty good. I'd say it leans more tawords ambince. It is slow through the beggining, but the climax is well worth the wait, plus the tune is pretty catchy. I love the drum break at 1:51, except it overpowers the main tune at the climax just a bit, but this is awsome, keep it up!

Mabeph responds:

thanks for the review, much appreciated.

Woah, this is amazing

It's like the Robot Chicken of audio, very nice work indeed!

Hehe, good stuff

That made my day some how. I love acapella stuff :} This was pretty interesting, it sounded a little too mixed up here and there, but you got the point across.

Pretty tight

Good stuff so far. The verses got a little repetitive for me at times, and at 1:38, the tune sounded a little mixed up until it was saved at 1:56 by the solo, which rocked btw. Lookin forward to the final draft.

lol - 4.00 / 5.00 (+ 4.00)

I think this is under the wrong category...

But its really well done. I'd say this piece is more of a pop kinda song. It's pretty solid and fluent, and its danceable(if thats even a term) at some parts. There were some parts though, where the synth sounded off and played some wierd notes, but not too often. Good job!

Filling time with music.
Gonna keep doin it til I can't.
