[Surface of the Sun]

Nice Remake

This song is from the movie Sunshine. Love the movie, nice remake, since u have the talent to remake a song like this, you should try composing something original using the same synths :D

FortyMedals responds:

sorry for taking so long to respond, yep the movie was outstanding, :) underrated if you ask me, and i do appreciate that comment, thanks so much, i do hope to compose something new soon, thanks again !

[[dB] I'm the Good Guy]

Very nice!

Great work my friend! All it needs is some vocals :D Maybe if you will let me, i would love to record some vocals over this, check out the acoustic track on my page, let me know what you think :)

Decibel responds:

Yeah Sure, try something out! :) Be sure to send it to me though :)

[Out of Sight (update3)]

Nice bro!

I love it, its very good, composition is superb, the only reason I didnt give it a ten is because the kick was too weak, if you add a more heavy kick with some dirty sidechain, your song would be ten time better. :D Keep it up

alanisnotcool responds:

i agree, looking back on this i see so much taht i could quickly make better lol. thanks for listening and for the good advice =)

[The Conquistadores]

HAHA

I knew it was you, amazing composition, I JUST reviewed one of your other songs. Like I said before, you are an amazing ear for music, you very talented, keep up the great work!

samulis responds:

Thanks for the great review, I'm glad you liked the piece. :)

Good luck with your own pieces, I'll try and see if I can check them out sometime.

[Harp Song]

Very Nice

I usually dont like all the video game songs on here and rate them 0, but since its under classical, I cant complain. The song its self was SUPERB. You should consider going to school for music, you have an amazing ear for melody and composition, its quite astounding, you have more talent then most popular songs on here. I might suggest looking into some new plugins with great sounding orchestral instruments and start creating some symphonies, I think you would do amazing. Keep up the good work!

samulis responds:

Thanks again for the kind review! I have taken a year of general music theory and fancy myself a hobbyist musician (trombone), but I certainly am considering at least studying music on the side in college.

I presently use the EWQL Symphonic Orchestra, which is one of the best ones I've found (albeit its price). In the future, I plan to look into getting some more of EW's stuff, as they have an excellent collection.

Regarding symphonies and other epic pieces, I would write them, but I have trouble keeping myself from getting too many melodies going. A ten-minute movement of mine would probably have upwards of ten independent motifs, some of which only are heard once... which would make it hard to call a symphony. One of these days I'll sit down and try to work with just a few... eventually. :D

[Balkan Rockout]

Not Bad

The song was a bit short but the composition was good, great job on mixing and mastering. 2.40 / 5.00 (+ 0.081)

BloodyN00b responds:

Yes, it's short and action packed. Besides, I wanted to leave you with a feeling of wanting just a little bit more at the end. I'm hoping it might inspire some thoughts.

[Faith Without Sunlight]

Yea

Your song has no real beat, no composition or direction, just some cool distortion. I think if you put your mind to it, you could make some really awesome music, maybe try picking up an acoustic and start singing :D I gave you a 4 because you did change it up a little in the middle.

Viper responds:

yeah...well its just me and a guitar so there isn't really anything else i can add...

i can take my sister's bass and add some bass to it.
and change the solo to something i can remember get some vocals and drums and re-upload it when its completely done

and yeah i did change it up...
i completely forgot a good majority of the song halfway through that solo

i have an acoustic it has electric strings on it and it has a pickup on it
and i don't think anyone would wanna hear my singing...
well maybe a few...
but i'm not that good at singing

[Free Fallin'(R) - Mr. KaOs]

Nice!

Love it, very upbeat, great work, the mixing and mastering sound professional also!

SteveKaOs responds:

Thanks man! 'Preciate it :P

[Medieval Cowboys]

Yea...

If I grew up in that time period, then this song would be Effing titts, but its like i'm in some kind of medieval video game, you could send it to maxis, and they could use if for a sims medieval expansion lol. Anyways, I know it takes work to make stuff like this, thats why I gave you a 6, but could you really listen to this in your car or on an mp3 player?

Tomppaah responds:

Actually... I tried listening to this in my car on my way to work today, and I have to say that I quite liked it. :>

Thanks for listening, and for your comment!

[Paralleling The Universe]

Hey Br0

Needs some melody and some less generic samples. Good effort and keep it up!
