Excellent!
I absolutely love this piece. The fact that it shows so much emotion even though it's just one instrument is really phenomenal. It's incredibly beautiful and deeply moving. It's actually inspired me to make a new song, which I hope to have done soon. :)
Sounds great!!
This is proof that "Carol of the Bells" is the only epic-sounding Christmas song ever conceived. :D
(This is actually the only Christmas song I like, the others just make me want to hit someone, lol.)
Anyway, on to your take. This is a really epic-sounding take on "Carol of the Bells", and I'm loving it. Wonderfully written, and the dynamics are wonderful to listen to.
You also reminded me about a part I forgot to put into my own cover within this piece, lol.
Either way, I love this song, and I love your version of it. Excellent job. :)
Haha! I hear you there! I have never wanted to punch a cartoon character in the face until I heard Betty Boop sing Santa Baby.
You should hear Celtic Woman's version of this song. It's almost too good....... :)
But you're too kind! Thanks for the review and I can't wait to hear your future pieces!
Mein ears, they explode out of sheer GODLINESS.
All ear-exploding jokes aside, this is very well done. :) I find no faults in it at all, and the electronic stuff behind the heavy metal goodness creates a very nice, atmospheric texture. I don't remember the original too well, although I am a fan of ParagonX9's work. That being said, though, that doesn't detract from my enjoyment of this song. This is a great, solid track, one that I'd put on repeat for quite some time. :)
Excellent job.
Thanks for listening!
Killer track!!
Very, VERY well done! There's not much I can offer in the way of criticism, as this is much better than what I put out, both in composition and execution.
I love both this and Endless, and I hope to hear more from you guys. :)
Sick stuff, keep it up. :)
Haha thanks man :)
Going to listen to your stuff now, dont think it will be too bad though ^^
Cheers / BoB
Absolutely Amazing.
Wow, I'm such a sucker for music like this. This track of yours just blew me away. I absolutely love ambient music, but I can never seem to execute the genre very well. Must be my sense of structure, I dunno. But that's besides the point. :P
Anyway, I gotta tell you, I love the atmosphere that this gives off. If you don't mind me saying so, It reminds me a little of Star of Bethlehem, an instrumental intro by Angels and Airwaves. I know, you probably don't want to be lumped in with them, lol, but I'm just saying that it reminded me a bit of that.
The only flaw I can find is that the bass sounds are killing the left side of my headphones, lol, but that's not your fault. My headphones are OLD. :P
Anyway, excellent work, I hope to hear more from you. :) I'm going to go check out your other pieces in a bit. :)
Hmm - listening to your latest song, which was submitted under ambient, I think I know your problems. First off, the tempo's a bit fast, and everything's out in front. In an ambient song, you want everything to be in the background, except maybe for one or two instruments - your piano, for example. ;)
Actually, I've never heard of Angels and Airwaves. o_O
Ha, get new ones! XD
Well, thanks for the review - glad you liked it! :D
With this amount of EPIC....
...I'm tempted to do a 300 joke, but "This is Sparta" gets old, REAL fast.
Anyway, I must say, in all seriousness, this is a brilliant piece, wonderfully structured and executed. I may not know much when it comes to music, but I know enough to know that this is a shining example of great music. I really look forward to hearing more from you.
THIS.... IS.... THE TRUTH! That joke does get old fast, but always worth a giggle in my opinion :D!
Thank you for your kind words and for the review, i'm glad you liked it! I'll keep making the tunes as long as my brain holds together.
Those are some amazing castles.
Heh, if you find any castles in the sky, let the owners know that they're blocking the path of my impractically huge, greenhouse gas-inducing private jet. XD
In all seriousness, though, you know what this actually reminds me of? It reminds me of that "Cruise Control" song by Keith Arem, which would usually play in the desert stages in "RidgeRacer 64"....Dammit, I need to stop comparing songs to video game music, lol. XD But hey, I loved "Cruise Control", and I love this song. :) I wish I could make a trance song as well as this. :)
Excellent work, keep it up!
My music tends to have a sound similar to video games, so I really don't blame you for the comparison :)
-Private jet? Bah, your private jet LANDS in the castles, duh?
:P
-Thanks for the review!

Wow!
Awesome work on this! It reminds me of a track that a friend of mine, whose musical alias is Icera (he's not on NG, though), made, except his was a bit more mechanical sounding, almost reminiscent of some scenes from Perfect Dark for the N64. I like the feel of this piece, it's definitely dark. :) The bass sounds tended to fuzz a little bit on me, but that's probably just my headphones, seeing as my headphones are designed to enhance the bass sounds. I think. Other than that, great work! :) I'm looking forward to checking out the rest of your music.
Yeah, this song is meant to have that kind of distortion, it's a nice effect to use in contrast to the space with no sound. The important thing about music is using the color of certain sounds to blend it into a beautiful image. It's similar to actual drawing in that way.
But yeah, freaky song, can't believe I managed to do that some days because the delay effects I used with the reeverb REALLY take alot of the cheaper production sound out of it for some reason, it just blends well.
-Lol, now to actually sing lyrics, that'll be a challenge :P
-Thanks again for the review!
