[Jason Needs A Girlfriend 3]

Are you Jason?

So we've seen some improvement, compared to Jason I, there are some issues with the feedback in the first few seconds of the track that I'd really take some time to tidy up, as it will make the instruments sound a lot better.

As for the lyrics, they are so perverted and wrong, that they make Eminem look like a church going prude. You've got some issues and I think that you really need to take some time to come up with something that suits this type of music, rather than going on about wanting to suck a guy's titties.

Failing that, pass the metal tunes that you've created on to friends and get them to come up with some lyrics for you and that would certainly help - they aren't your strong point, so outside help may be neccessary.

YOU ARE JASON! DONT YOU KNOW THAT BY NOW!?!?!?!?!?! FAGGOT!

[Jason Needs A Girlfriend]

Yeah...

I'm sure the music was good in the background, but I couldn't hear it too well, due to the random Tourette's Syndrome yelling in the foreground. If you're going to try 'singing' like that, step back from the mic and try to carry the tune.

If it was Rap, try to make the words sound a little poetic and keep time with the beat, as this bears no relevance to the music that is struggling away in the background.

I'd consider adding drums to the tune itself, as that would make it more imposing, especially with the power chords that you've used here.

[Fantasia Nocturne No.2]

Not a bad solo

Not sure why, but this one sounds a little on the muted site, as if the pianist is quite some distance from the mic. Maybe a little remastering could help with this. I'd reccomend that you speak to someone like Jurian, who is a master at Piano and probably with converting them to audio files as well, since he puts his own work on NG in the same way.

I think that this tune sounds less joyous, compared to the first part. I think it is more reminiscent of the cassanova, who tried, but failed to woo his chosen lady this evening and now he laments, folornly.

There is always next time. Who knows.

um omg you nailed it perfectly your the only one to get it right, :D you have a good ear and thanks for the advice, but accually xKore is accually working on it for me at the moment, i kept getting the same review that the muffled sound took away from it so i asked him to help since he did the first one, so i should be up in a day or so i'll let you know when that happens but thanks for the review

[Fantasia Nocturne No.1]

Cinderella goes to the ball!

A nice piece, certainly consistent with these big lavish partys thrown by aristocratic types. Possibly with something more sinister lurking in the background as well, but we can look into that at a later date.

I like the way that it plays out, the beat is nice and it sounds as if it would lend itself quite well to a string quartet accompanying the piano, just to add a little more life to the proceedings.

sarias responds:

again you are good at this, your not exact this time but your close, its about a guy who is all alone, but then he meets this girl where he instantly falls in love with at first sight, but there is a guy lurking who is also in love with this girl, so he kidnaps her, and he chases after them, but he is too late, becasue he has forced her to marry him against her own will, but he atlast saves her in the end, in a duel to the death where he wins

[Town Theme Loop]

Link's home

Simple, effective, quaint. This reminds me more of the sort of tunes that you expect to find in LoZ games or Simon the Sorcerer, from the country houses. Excellent, as there aren't enough of them in the world :)

I think you can take this further by developing other themes that go with this sort of settings, such as the market theme, boss theme and castle etc. This could certainly lead to you taking it further when someone comes after a few for a game or movie project.

sarias responds:

i cant figure out if you like it out not because you make it sound like you hate it terrible because im no the first person to make a town theme, im not sure if you like it out not tell me that. i wasn't the first person to make a town theme, but nither was pokemon, or neither was zelda, and they didn't get sarcasm thrown at them

[Alive(Original)(emc)]

9 Minutes?!

Aside from this track being too long, you've given us a neat production. It's well balanced and can carry its own weight in terms of the beat and the melody. I'd suggest that you halve it for length though, as I've never seen songs of this genre that have to last any longer than 4 minutes. Even hardcore clubbers would get bored of listening to this and would vacate the dance floor.

I think that on the scale of the variation, it's spread over far too long, which works nicely, because if you cut down the length of the track, you're increasing the variation within the tune itself ;)

I notice that you put a natural break in there at about 3.5 minutes. Don't come back for a second half of the track, make a new track that carries on from there, by all means. Now we get a second half, which is discernibly different from the first half, so it sounds like you've tried to get a mix going. More individual tracks please and leave the mixing to the DJs.

[n.83 (Demo)(WIP)]

Good driving beat

Not a bad tune, this one. I think that it' would certainly be a good rhythm for car shows, where people show off how smooth the ride is, for example. It's a very good tune for driving to.

I'd suggest more variation, as the bits that you've given us are great, but we need something more, just to stop the boredom early on.

[MAC 2008 - Monster]

Slow and steady

I can almost feel the tears running down my cheeks with this one.

I can see this as the grief of someone who has lost a loved one and is standing at their graveside in the pouring rain, wishing that they had died in place of the loved one.

There are a few issues with your chord notes, at about 1.30 to 2.00, you really become aware of one of the chords being on the sharp side of things, which really doesn't sound good when it's on its own. When you add the other instruments, it blends in a lot better, so you don't really get a chance to notice it.

Sorting that out would be a great boon.

Scribbler responds:

Nice imagery. I will listen to the notes you pointed out and fix the problems. Thank you.

[.:Sleepless Nights v2:.]

Enchanting

This song has a great deal going for it - you've given us a nice relaxing tune, despite the harsh sound of the low chord that you keep throwing in there for the beat every fourth note. I'd suggest having that as a held note, rather than such a sudden end of it.

Reminds me of part of Final Fantasy, where they go into the ice caves - with all the twinkling of the light off the perfect ice crystals. Sublime.

GronmonSE responds:

You know, I hadn't thought about that (referring to the chords thing). I'll try it out and see how it turns out.

Thanks for the review :D
