Oh, sweet!

This is really cool! It does actually make me picture mountains, at first dowsed in fog, then uncovered by light and then it turns to night. Excellent progression and mastering and the use of the odd sound here and there is what sold me on it. One of the notable turn offs was actually the bass drum that comes in at 1:53, even though I'm an experimental artist, for some reason this just sounded really off or maybe too loud. In any case I hope you do well in the contest!

Thank you ! Good luck to you too !

Hey

You just earned an earnest 10/10 here dawg. This song is so crazy, I feel like it should follow me around everywhere. It's very serene and yet a tinge of sadness is hung with it. It reminds me of Phantasy Star Online 1&2, Legend of Legaia and the Mother series (especially Mother 3) which are all major influences on my music. I'm a big fan of New Age music so this really took me away and lifted my mood when I watched the Monochrome Art Collab. Thanks for making such a great song!

Havegum responds:

Haha, thanks!
I appreciate it!

Hey wow!

I don't see how this is a forest 'lullaby' but on the other hand I don't see why this has a low score. This piece does remind me of the forest, for sure, but more of a... Panorama of a forest, an escape scene, or a boss battle in a videogame. Perhaps a name change is in order?

In any case, I enjoy this song! When I first started out making music solo about three years ago this is the kind of music I wished to create. Music that makes people think! Music that invokes deep thought without words.

There is only one part that I can think of that would possibly cause people to give you a low score here, which would be the transition at 2:12. The transition is very sudden and surprising, this could be causing people to feel stupid or inferior-- No I'm joking, haha. Generally, people don't like such a sudden and linear transition into the next part of a song like this but I, on the other hand, like that sudden change. It's kind of avant garde really so I don't see a reason to change it.

Ossikater responds:

I think I made it in 2 hours or so. But you have right. A name change could be in its order. I have taste for strange titles. And the sudden change is kinda off but I was new with the software at the time. Thank you for your wise words and the score!

Hey, guy

You've done a good job here and it sounds like you put a lot of work into it. I am pleased that you've tried (and succeeded) to give the song a new flavor. Most people just turn songs into dance remixes or something like that which doesn't take much thought. This is not a remix like that. This remix, I feel should be heralded as one of the greater Zelda mixes.

Now there are things about it that I, personally, didn't find to be pleasant. The violin parts in the opening and ending sound very linear and this makes it sound synthetic. I also think that the piano could use a little bit more reverb on it. Now, whether it was your intention to do the afore mentioned or not, I don't know and therefore can not truly give advice.

I'll say that you've given it a great title as this was the first song I noticed in the portal today. Keep on cranking out those tunes there, guy.

Ossikater responds:

Thanks for the review! Well I can tell you that I cant make it perfect because my software does not have the power to use many effects at the same time. The song starts to lag and then it suddenly breaks the whole track. I do also have trouble with the piano cause its not recorded in a mic. I create and edit note after note after note and sometimes really pisses me of sometime. I cant wait to get a mic and create/write real songs with lyrics etc. Once again thanks for your time to write this review! Hope you enjoy my other creations too! :)

Huh..

Well, it's good to see you got on the top 5, congrats. It's not really what I expected it to be but I'll give you points for being innovative. The breakdown is good and overall it's a pleasant remix. I'm just sad that there are no vocals and it is a little on the short side.

SessileNomad responds:

win some lose some

Huh...

Well, first off it needs a crunchy synth or something because this song is so not finished. I'd also like to say that the name is bad. I'm tellin' you straight up not to let go of this song. Work on it more, make it longer and you'll have somethin' on your hands.

Well

I like it but, you claim that you wanted to make it more powerful. I'm not getting that kind of feel from it. In fact, it feels kind of weaker and a little synthetic. I suggest using a real guitar and maybe a more crunchy bass synth, maybe put some grungy sounding distortion on it. The drums could be the slightest bit louder, I'm not saying how loud they are is bad, I just feel like they could be a little louder.

Anyway, good job and don't stop trying.

Retrodelux responds:

maybe powerful wasnt the correct wording.. either way... simple remake of a awesome song...

Wow man

I love how everything you touch turns to fucking gold. Great job on the mix. It makes me think of videogame boss music.

maccormack responds:

Haha, oh flattery.
Thanks a lot man.

This is what I'm

Fucking talking about! We need more artists who appreciate noise. This is the first song on NG where I clicked download as soon as I heard the opening. Only beastly music gets a 10 out of fucking 10 from me and you get a 10 out of fucking 10.

I'm not even sure what this makes me picture.

BTW suck my dong.

Gritchy responds:

MY PUSSY GAVE HEAD TO A SHIT DICK

I'm not going to lie

This is horrible. The synth isn't pleasant at all. I would like to say the thing that pissed me off more than anything in this is the opening. You can not bend the strings on shamisen like on a guitar. I know what you're trying to do but it's biwa that bends the strings not shamisen. It could use some bass but I really just don't like this song.
