This is awesome for a first song.

It's much better than mine was, anyhow.

Nice build up, and good instrument choice.

It seemed a little dissonant at some points around 1:15.

Sweet, keep on submitting!

ninjaclippings responds:

Thanks :]

Wow

I am absolutely speechless.

Well, not really, but this song is fucking awesome.

I'm totally playing this at my homecoming afterparty! Thanks!

Nice, this is the one you showed me, right?

The melody is really catchy. I think one of the instruments that really had a big impact on the song was the bass. It was nice, a good resonant saw bass that doesn't take over the song but it still noticable. Very nice!

I liked the ending too. This would be perfect battle scene music in (once again) Dragon Warrior! I could see the first 45 or so seconds being looped, and the end being the victory/triumph jingle.

You should totally make an RPG on that one rpg maker you have, and use these omegabits as the music.

Talk to you soon..

GyEAHH, DRAGON WARRIOR!! i've got to look for that game, you've mentioned it a lot.
yeah i think i showed it to you like half finished, or maybe it was full.

im glad you noticed the bg sounds. since the instruments aren't that interesting (at least in comparison) by themselves, i had you make them work together 'n like harmonize. and i was inspired by those songs i downloaded from 8bitpeoples.com. each part of the song was unique from the other yet worked amazingly together.

lol i think we got rid of that rpg maker when we cleaned the computer. so maybe if i feel like redownloading it and learn the easy scripting i will.
thanks again.

Nice. That bit tracker thing sounds pretty cool

Cool song, I like the main synth. What is it? (I know it's not from FL, but is it a saw/sine or what?)

Short song, so I don't have much to say about it. I can definitely see this being the music played when you walk into an inn, or blacksmith, or other store in one of those old Dragon Warrior NES games.

Can you add effects with bit tracker? This would go well with this song. If not, just add 'em in from FL.

Nice one! 5/5

i've always imagined a blacksmith shop the way Sword of Mana captured it:

u meant sfx like that of the first link? the little tink noise of a hammer. the program is limited by what you can rip from other songs that have premade samples in them so however many instruments are in a song is how many you can have in your song. you can edit instruments but its too tricky to figure out.
thanks for the review! glad you enjoyed it.

Cool

First off- you must tell me where you got those string samples! They were really awesome.

While I can see where you're coming with the 'emptiness' of the song, it made my really cheerful. There's something about the upbeat nature of it that gives me a really dancey feel.

Is that a sytrus bell? If so, which one is it? It's really catchy.

Good song! You get a 10. Now, I don't mean to 'audio whore,' but my latest song "Cloud Forest" is in a whole different genre than my music normally is. Some feedback would be much appreciated!

See you around,

-Exodus

alternativesolution responds:

Ha, it's no big deal. You've done me the favor more than once, I'm happy to oblige. :D

Nice. I like it.

Cool synths. What did you use to make them?

The song is really awesome...I only found 2 things that could be improved:

The crash is a bit preset-ful. Add some reverb and EQ it a bit. Make it your own, so to say.

The rise effect at the beginning...it's good and all, but it's sort of too loud and the end is weird.

Besides that, this song is really cool. You had some volume errors in the end, but that isn't your fault (unless that was intentional?)

I would really appreciate it if you could check out my latest song, 'Cloud Forest'. It's my first one in that ambient style, so feedback would be awesome.

Once again, great song. 9/10 and 5/5.

EchozAurora responds:

It depends on which synth you're referring to. The basses were made with Rogue, the music box (I use that a lot) comes from Unison, the leads are a combo of Transcender and Vanguard... and I think that's pretty much it.

As for the weird volumes.. I think it is because I'm mixing through my living room surround sound and tv. Probably not the smartest thing.. but it does sound good on there.. lol

And the crash.. I dunno.. didn't mess with it.. maybe I'll retouch it later.

Thanks for the review! I'll make sure to hit yours back in a bit.

Cool

Definitely getting the "whale" feel!

Awesome...what software/samples/vst's did you use on this one?

This is really, really fuckin' awesome.

Great use of effects and reverb and such. The big faded timpani was sweet.

This is a perplexing, airy song. Really cool! 5/5 fosho.

-Exodus

Cryptowen responds:

Thanks a lot. I used Jeskola Buzz for the tracker & synths, & recorded the samples myself (I think this one had mostly cutting boards, circuit bent keyboards, & rocks being thrown in water. Probably some distorted vocal & rubber band samples in there, too).

Wow, awesome!

I love this type of 8-bit chiptune music.

This I can definitely see in a GBA game, like Zelda, being played while you walk around a town.

This is odd, but in a good way. It's really original and diverse.

I like it! You should try to mess with 8bit sounds more! 5/5!

-Exodus

Mattopia responds:

Hehe, will do! Thanks a lot! :D

256 mb? Ouch man...

The intro is great, it really gets you into the feel of the song. Some of the best ambient I've heard in the portal!

What was that semi-pizzicato thing from around 1:10? Really cool...

Use of FX in this song were great...all the instruments go really well together. I've always liked ambient and glitch mixed together, hard to find songs like that though.

I really got a forlorn feel from this one...like, distant and sullen, if you know what I mean.

Great work! I'm sure you'll do great in the competition (if not win it :P)

5/5!

-Exodus

Nice.

It's on the front page of stepmania.com. Awesome job!
