[Epilog Nth]

Feels like mega-man just got done with a heavy night of clubbin in the Casino Night Zone and is takin a ride through the city - good stuff!

OpenLight responds:

Thanks!

[==(Solace)==]

Beautiful track man!

I'm happy to have helped, and very impressed with the way you worked it all together. Superb soloing btw. I have to say though, I'm glad it's over with. I must've run through that progression a hundred or more times before i finally came up with something worthwhile. Its gonna be hard to get it out of my head :P And I totally agree, the track flows so well its 7min span feels like a lot less than that. Well done!

[B. O. B.]

props dude.

I can't help it, there's not really anything particularly impressive here (aside from the singing, double props on that) but I give you respect for the humor. Frkin hilarious, i can't help but laugh when I listen to this. Plus, being high + opera singing + classical piano = mass hilarity. I wanna go ride my bike now, lolz.

JPRixdorfer responds:

So you saw what I did there? Great! It's wonderful this little thing actually makes people laugh. I was a little afraid you guys would go "the fuck is that?!" and bomb it right away. So props to newgrunds, I guess.

Now I'm starting to think if I should do more like that: kinda like 19th century songs with hilarious lyrics. It was so much fun doing this and I get lots of benevolent reviews for that. Also nobody else is doing it.

[Neonriders]

Pretty good stuff.

Personally, I think you could drop the first whole minute of the track and give the song alot more appeal. After the 1 min mark it really turns into something nice. Kinda reminds me of a sonic song; really dig the distorted lead around 2 min too. Very well put together, if a bit long and bulky. Good work! :)

Theman1178 responds:

Thanks! Actually, I was already re-making the song under a new name "Lightriders" because my friends thought there was quite a bit more to add and I agree (I use my friends as first-hand reviewers for my music). Thanks for the review, I'll drop the first minute in lightriders as one of the changes and see how i can re-work it.

[SH - Groove]

Wow! What a groove!

Amazing sir! Much respect! This is an excellent execution of funk-hop at its finest! Love the bass, love the piano, love the sampling! Perfectomundo! This sounds like its straight off a J-Boogie album (I mean that as a compliment; never heard anything like this from J-Boogie; it just fits his bill). I want some more, I want some vocals! Totally dig it! Give me some more!

[Not the same]

Wow!

Great acoustic guitar work, the solo is pretty grooving too...would've liked to hear some better mastering, but ignoring that, it's a great piece. Good work!

Jayson420 responds:

Thank you very much man I appreciate that a lot. I make all my music in my bedroom with just a regular dynamic mic and I'm still learning, but thank you man i love too hear feedback

[PdG - Start From The Beginning]

Exellent!

Love it! Smooth and flowing, this piece has a classic house/club feel, but its so fleshed out it feels so much more professional and complete than most of the crap I've been browsing through lately. Love the short chords at 1:30, and your whole progression is interesting and complete, love the sidechaining...whole production is perfectomundo! Props!

Qelaion responds:

Thanks man. I really tried to get a more professional sounding feel out of this song, glad to see it came through! :P

Glad you love those chords, I tried to get a somewhat non-generic chord progression fit into this, i'm happy it hasn't disappointed anyone yet :D

Thanks again!

[Prime Time (NG Loop)]

Excellent track!

I really dig it! The prime time vocal, very nice, love its effects! And your bass, frkin huge man! Love it! How'd you make it? Groovin beat, lovely bass, 5/5 10/10 keep on rockin!

[Midnight Shadows]

Totally dig it!

Dramatic and epic! Frkin lovely! East/west you say? I will have to investigate these samples, mwuahaha! They sound awesome! 0.0 Super cinematic and ultimate man...I really dig the marracas? that shakey thing that comes in every once in a while, that is a really nice touch! And the choir thing, amateur as it sounds, is composed wonderfully! Very perfect melodies, piano touches are wonderful! SO many little touches little details, it all really comes together extremely well! Your swell up to 1:05 and the breakout after is amazing! Great piece man! Greatness!

Step responds:

Hey thanks :3.

"Dramatic and epic! Frkin lovely! East/west you say? I will have to investigate these samples, mwuahaha!"

Oh, you should! East/West doesn't come cheap but it has been by far the investment that was worth it the most music-wise. I feel like I'm owning an orchestra with that VST.

"They sound awesome! 0.0"

Yup, the East/West samples are recorded from real instruments. Really makes a difference!

"Super cinematic and ultimate man..."

Ultimate, huh? :D Thanks! You're making me feel like continuing this song now, but I know I can't since it's so old and I lost its project file...

"I really dig the marracas? that shakey thing that comes in every once in a while, that is a really nice touch!"

That shakey thing is indeed a maraca. I like using shakers/maracas in my orchestral/soundtrack songs.

"And the choir thing, amateur as it sounds, is composed wonderfully!"

Thank you :3. That choir comes from East/West and I love its sound. I used it in like 3 of my submissions so far, lol.

"Very perfect melodies, piano touches are wonderful! SO many little touches little details, it all really comes together extremely well! Your swell up to 1:05 and the breakout after is amazing!"

Those points are some of the reasons why I wish I could continue this. All the little details make a pretty good atmosphere and if my computer hadn't died I would've probably finished this song by now...

"Great piece man! Greatness!"

Appreciate the review, many thanks :D.

[Epmty Remix (WiP)]

fuckin cool!

Dude, love the ambiance! So much better than the original! I have this theory about remixing; if you're not going to improve on the original it shouldn't be done. This is clearly a great improvement on my work! I really like the arps you used (instead of the sytrus ones I did) and the added drama with the crashes and heavy drums are amazing! I really like it alot, you did a superb job! I'm honored that you chose to remix one of my works! Thats awesome! Thank you! :)

DarkShadow166 responds:

Wow thanks a lot! It's a big shame this is unfinished - I loved how the intro was turning out but when the drum beat kicked in at 0:41 I think it lost all of its potential and I really don't know how to improve it, unfortunately.

I'm glad you enjoyed it!
