definatly 1 of ur most interesting creations durn. i like the varried, ever present beat. could use a bit of spice tho. the same rhythem loop gets kinda old if its at the forefront. consider establishing a basic beat, like u have here, but keep it soft, subdued in the background. then pile things on over it, like make-up i suppose. allow it to shine thru every now and then as well. like i said, very good for a first but i see much room for improvment! and i mean that in a good way :)

aye, percussion is my main weakness when it comes to tunes. :) I prolly shoulda changed the loops up during the second/fourth part of the song to add something different to listen to. I'm really more of a melody guy though, so it'll be a while before my beats catch up in terms of texture and variety.
but I'll certainly keep workin' at it and find ways of improving. :) thanks for the review, knight. :)

this is really interesting. its like u took the main halo theme, and kinda smoothed it out. where as halo was more real and textured with spikes and stuff, this is oiled and glazed. its very interesting.

LOL THE LIGHT SABRE. nice. pretty good song. the beat in the background is really good. the indistinct wispering is ok, but kinda tone it down some u know. if u want to have lyrics, u could also have the wispering sound, but make it a little clearer. the song is very repetitive. its suppost to repeat its self like twice, maybe 3 times, but u only have like 10 seconds of song. i would suggest following the vein the music is already heading in, and when u have the "shhhh *light sabre sound*" u can make a small change to another beat. kinda like a seperate trail. bring it back to the main soul of the song tho.
the ending was a let down. 3: and kinda... disappointing. instead of ending with the sabre, u could end with it fading or trailing.

Gracias. The next version will definitely have an ending, it won't just die all of a sudden.

Comm 1
hey, sorry i havnt looked at them before this. i love the beat in the back ground. it really adds to the entire song. its a very pleasent mix of beat with classic piano. may i suggest adding more variety? possably more for the piano, rather than replaying the same piece, and definatly add more high toned instruments. the contrast of the deep base with the light piano is perfect, exellent. dont over do it, but try to have a full spectrum of it all. keep the piano, definatly.
another suggestion may be to keep the piano repeating what its doing, along with the base, but make the piano louder. on top of that, lay over a song with a variety of notes and tones.

I'm gonna be going back to this one very soon. I learned a lot of really cool little techniques while making a beat for OmegaPhantom's contest. Hopefully they'll improve this beat ten fold. Thanks for the review!

sounds familar. and btw, this isnt classical its instramental. at 40 seconds, it lost a seat in most catagories of classical music. just to let u know. good song none the less
Author's Response:
yeah I would've put it in something different but there's no "instrumental" or "soundtrack" category

at about the 40 second mark i got the image of an epic wizard/knight game. it drew this intense image of the brave shining knight valliently fighting thru unstoppable enemies for a noble cause. great job, this is beautiful. 10 stars with a shining 5

this is pretty good, but it doesnt feel like a shoot em up song. it feels... greasy almost. its not a bad thing, but this feels more like for a thinking game, like an action puzzle rather than a 'i need to survive!' kind of game. i think that if u made it a little sharper, crisper... its not meant to invoke sturdy thinking, its meant to invoke those lightening reflexes that will save u! it should get u into a lather, not lull u back down after uv killed every1. still good tho.

You maybe right, I just had in mind a vertical scrolling shoot-em up. Thanks for the review.

this is a really good song. i dont know what the original file sounded like, but the bass and the really deep sounds really make this great. it has that resonation in ur soul.... makes it feel natural. the repeatitive, relativly high pitched rythum is an exquisit 'bread and butter' along with the other sounds and beats that pop up. this is a beautiful song my man. just to restate, the steady, repetitive deep beats are great for making the song likeable, and the higher, irregular beats are a slick attractor.
Author's Response:

im used to speaking spanish, so i cant go into a big deep speech about the coolness of this. i can say, however, that 10 stars and a 5 rating are not good enough for this song. i really would like more songs like this! iv been working on my english, i hope its good.
