Massive Attack - Teardrop is an awesome song and I think I can hear some similarities to the song in this one.

I like your sudden changes in beats, like at 1:58. At first it's very slow and calm and then suddendly the fast drum beat starts. It was unexpected, and I like it when unexpected things happen in music. ^^

The voice samples at the start and the end sound kinda creepy, but I like it that way. It creates the right atmosphere you need to enjoy this song.

Also, the track has a nice length. And even though it's so long it never gets boring listening to this song. So, you did an awesome job here and I found nothing I could complain about. Great!

It's hard for me to imagine how this will sound as a whole. I listened to part 1 again and them imideatly after that to this one, but there's just that small loading time in between that makes it a bit harder to see the song as a whole.

But I think the two parts fit together quite well, even though part 1 starts off nice and slow and this one is the exact contrary of "nice and slow". ^^

I like the driving beats you used here, they make the song very interesting to listen to. Also the other effects you added here fit in perfectly.

So I'm looking forward already to listen to part 3! :)

I was doing quite well with part 3, but then I listened back as a whole, and decided to scrap it. I'll probably mix it up a lot more, while maintaining that fast driving edge. Thanks for the review, I hope part 3 continues at this consistency.
Cheers.

The piano intro is really great. I also like the change over from the intro to the techno beat. It's very smooth and not so abrupt like one can hear in so many "standard techno songs".

The beat you created here is very diversified and I like listening to the song. It creates a very happy atmosphere.

Only problem is that the song gets a bit boring towards the end. There's not that much happening during the song even though it's over 3 minutes long. You should try to change the main theme a bit during the song to keep the listener interested.

I thought so too. Could have added an extra melody to it or something but I was lacking ideas at that point sadly.

Thanks for the review :D

Another 8 bit track, good good! :)

I like this one a lot better than the previous one. This one has nice deeper notes, which are easier to listen to, heh. ;)

It's a very nice battle theme, might fit into games like Mystic Quest (or Final Fantasy Adventure, if you don't live in Europe ;) ) or even Super Mario.

The problem here is again that the loop is so short. Make it longer and a bit more varied and you have a kick ass 8 bit song! :)

Ohh, that reminds me of good old 8 bit games. But sadly it's just the tune I tend to turn off, because the get very annoying after some time.

You should expand this song into something longer, and you shouldn't use so many high notes as you used here. They tend to cause pain in the ear of the listener. ;)

Yeah i thought it sounded wierd an octave lower though :/

This tune could be used for pretty much anything, I guess. It fits into so many categories, it's almost frightening! :D

Personally, I had something like a medieval market place in mind, where some musicians gather around and play some songs to amuse the townsfolk (and to earn some money, of course).
But it fits into a dream sequence as well. It would be a nice and soft dream, that can go into any direction.

The note at the end is a tad bit too long. A very soft fade out would have been better there, I think.

A fade would be great, I agree (and of course, now I know how to do that in MIDI). I like the idea of this being versatile, don't let the title throw you - it can go anywhere!

Thanks for reviewing!

Reminds me a lot of Radiohead's "Morning Bell/Amnesiac", as it features simliar tunes in the intro.

I like your improvised song, even though it gets a little bit boring towards the end. But I think you can build up on this submission by adding a few more instruments, like some percussions or a soft played piano.

Adam-Beilgard responds:

I've been reading that a lot and I'm starting to think I should create a piece similar to this but with a bigger horn section or something. I don't know. As far as this work is concerned, more would be too much. I'm also not sure what to do about the form, since it's not what we're used to with ABA, or building to some sort of exposition. I guess I should have put in a disclamer that read: "This piece will not have the tension/resolve you are used to if you were born in North America or Western Europe".

I'm glad you liked the improv, thanks for the review!

At first I thought that this is going to be a very repititve song, but after those guitars set in, I had to change my mind. ^^

I like the melody you created with the guitars, it sounds very interesting.
Also, the rest of the instruments really fit into there.

I think that the snyth that starts at aorund 0:52 gets a bit too prominent during the song, maybe you can turn down the volume of that part a little bit.

MusicIsBliss responds:

I agree with the synth being too strong, basically my goal for this song was to see how loud of a song I could make (take that dynamic range), but yeah, my fear kept being that it would be too repeditive, i'm glad it isn't

\m/

Very nice track. It's as if I slowly sink deeper and deeper into a sea and suddendly realize that I can't go back to the surface (that's where the music gets louder and more dramatic).
Then a short and futile struggle against the inevitable (death)... and the track is over.

Very intense track, great work!
