The song this is created from is free to be used, it is not copyrighted material. Besides, this differs from the original song alot, and could therefore be considered as a Remix, and I dont see you complaining about remixes. I dont understand what the problem is, I dont gain anything from posting this here and you dont lose anything by taking the time to listen to it. If you think it is going against the rules then fine, just dont review my work saying its against the rules, let the people who run the site tell me that. Next time you review please try to give a review relevant to the content of what your reviewing.

TNZ - Here They Come

"pretty promising"

date: August 16, 2008

it sounded pretty promising and awsome until the drums started in. maybe it's just the mastering/recording that makes them sound that way but even so, they sound very dry and monotonous. your guitar tracks have a great start but it could use a little more dynamic action and song structure that really keeps a person listening.

keep at it

I definitely see where you're coming from, especially your comment about the drums. Our Second album sounds a LOT cleaner and more powerful, and is a lot more complex musically.

Paroxym- Haze

"cool"

submission: Paroxym- Haze
date: August 8, 2008

you've got some great concepts going for you here. i think i would like to here the vocals maybe not removed but changed a little bit so that they aren't as obvious. you should tweak the frequencies and volume/pan control and try to get more of a ghostly creepy "from the back alley" feel. the bass could be brought out a little more. keep in mind the most people on newgrounds don't have ASIO and 400 watt mixers to pump this through. most of them have laptop speakers or headphones. with everything else, the nice base undertones will be drowned out. i would enjoy having the conga drums replaced with timpinis for a more dramatic feel. keep it up!

later,

Concrete Head--_--

"sweet"

submission: Concrete Head--_--
date: August 8, 2008

i liked the idea of the song pulled from the blue, could be improved on as far as being a little more logical and pleasing to the ear. loved the idea of the evolving synthesizerfrom tone to tone, however they could have been a little less abrubt to the ear. concepts, execusion and all you did great.

Ectso - Futuristic Twilight

"garageband..."

date: February 13, 2008

i love the way garageband works and i recognize it anywhere. the loops are fun to play with but what you'll want to get to eventually is learning how to use the software instruments to make original chord progresssions, melodies, drum beats, etc. for me hearing even one garageband loop is an immediate turn off. but hey. it's only your eigth song. foor a your eighth song, this isn't bad at all.

The Piano and the Violin

"it was pretty good"

date: January 24, 2008

however, i would have really enjoyed the piano and violin playing over eaach other while alternating solos and backups. i would have also really enjoyed if you would have made the violin a little more complex to match the complexity of the piano.

8/10

Author's Response:

Yeah maybe I'll do something like that last time.

The violin was pretty complex. So I don't really see how you think it wasn't haha. Besides, the piano can have a lot more voices at a time than violin. So piano can play the most complex music, texture-wise. However, they were really dueling over improvisational skill.

Symphony of the Demon

"WOOTNESS"

date: January 24, 2008

i loved the way it sounds. it could use a breakbeat drum section and changing melody/instrument. couldn't hurt to be longer either.
