[The Ways Of Your Life]

Ow.

The high-pitched synth, was terrible. It was distracting and plainly, annoying. I gave up listening to it. The backbeat was good, yet repetitive,but it had a nce, 70's rythm. It hurt my ears from then, and I gave up on it. Very poor.

tw0k00l4sk00l responds:

k ill take that the program was running slow so i just singled them out and put them 2gether but i know what ur sayin

[Pavement Fertilizer]

Errr...

An nice, paced, rythmatic oriental intro, meeting perfectly with the front layer of music, in turn meeting the guitar well, which was nice and well paced, and the drum beat was very supportive. I did feel it went on too long, and begun to lack a good rythm, then the higher pitched guitar kicked in, but in the same rythm. The heavy metal then came in, and it felt quite angry. Then, the old rythm. So, an okay song, but very repetitive.

ThePal responds:

i see your points. Well, i already knew that it was repetitive, but i thought it was ok, so i just posted it. I'll try making my songs less repetitive in the future, but find new melodies that fits the current ones isn't easy. but i'll try.
Thanks for the feedback. :)

[the moon remix]

Hmm.

The things with video game music, is that it keeps within it's set theme. In your intro, I felt like I was being lulled into an energetic song, which then moved into a slightly relaxed theme, to a mildly energetic one. If it kept, you'd earn a lot more. Simply, great bass, a nice simple guitar, and a good background tapping made it quite a nice relaxing song if not used for a video game. Nicely done.

troyapollo responds:

looking back on this 11 years later is a damn trip let me tell you, but i can tell you there is so much more i think i could do with this now. But man i did the the best i could with the knowledge i had. i hope in some sort of future i make this up to what my standards are today. but i do have to say back then every comment mattered to me and shaped what i put on this site, i dont know if you are still around but i thank you for what you gave me. looking back into the past and seeing something like this is just crazy to me. thanks for your input as well as everyone else im just proud to be apart of this community from so early on and to see where we have come. its really amazing.

[Ave Maria (Gounod/Bach)]

Of all opera songs,

Ave Maria is my fave. Any ideas as to where to get the one they used in the Hitman series?

hzlancer responds:

that's a different Ave Maria by Schubert

[electric space army]

You know,

I don't know what to say about this. Not exactly a great loop.

Achika responds:

I agree xD

[Thorn In Your Side]

Very Nice.

Excellent bass. The vocals sort of killed it for me.

jewcurls responds:

thanks for the review .... i was trying to get a kind of john frusciante vocal thing happening but obviously didnt work:P

[Halo Theme Song]

Very good,

But I can't help but feel the lack of a choir takes the song down from an A to a B. Good rendition though!

JakesFable responds:

Yeah I could of made it a little stronger. Thanks alot for the review ;)

[Still Alive 8bit cover]

Lovely.

I'm sad to say I've never experienced the joy of the "Still Alive" original version. Any hints as to where to find it?

pheel responds:

I'm sure if you search for it on YouTube you'll be able to find it.
But for download you could probably try Limewire or something.

:D

[Voodoo March]

Sweet

You were better than Solja Boy! You do lack an interesting rythm. Don't consider either of those a compliment...

Seriously though, his music career lasted, what, 6 months? Amazing.

Kezelevich responds:

Well the 8 was a compliment. Fuck you bitch.

[Second 2 None]

Mr. err.... Withthumbs,

You have no idea what this song means to me. My grandad is turning 60 this Saturday, and I'm making a movie for him, and after an exhaustive search, I found you and a few other diamonds in the rough. Take pride in the fact that you have made a 60-year old man and his family, very, very happy. I have the deepest respect for you, despite the fact that you could be a middle-aged peodophile (I'm not suggesting you are. Did you not just read the review?)

Monkeywithumbs responds:

Mr, umm..Box, lol
You have no idea how happy (and proud) it makes me to read your kind words and that I could help to make your Grandfather happy on such a special day. That means a lot to me.

"despite the fact that you could be a middle-aged peodophile"

LOL :)
