Midi much?

Please sir, never use a midi file again.

Although this is a pretty nice orchestration. So props on that. My apologies if you actually played it.

MarkySpark responds:

Your apology accepted. It's not hard to play at all.

Same kinda thing here.

The exact kinda thing here, really. I haven't seen one of my best friends for somewhere in the neighborhood of like 3 months, and it'll probably be a few more months before i get to see her again. Idk how you feel for her, but presumably, you feel roughly the same thing I do.

Anyways, as for the music, it's brilliant as usual. Such a beautiful orchestration. It transcends other works I've heard by even the famous by a mile man. Coming from someone who generally doesn't say things like that, and who listens to a lot of classical works, that should give you some general idea of how brilliant it is. Your other new submission is just a beautiful. You NEED to get this out there man. Like, seriously, I doubt anyone would turn this down. Well, that excludes Carnegie, probably, but who knows?

Sheesh, I've been listening to it for like 20 minutes, and it's not getting any less awesome. Jeez man, you never cease to amaze.

And you certainly proved that it's possible to write very emotionally in a major key.

Not too fond.

Sounds very abstract, but then, music is the most abstract art there is because it lacks any words or direct references to things happening in nature. It was a little odd that everything was panned to the right, and kinda threw me off balance. Overall, a decent job, although I'm not personally terribly fond of it. Best of luck.

loogiesquared responds:

best of luck for what?

Brilliant...

As stated earlier, nothing much else to say, I really do love this piece. Not much else to say, it's lovely, plain and simple. GMU certainly got lucky.

Simply, astoundingly, inarguably, beautiful.

Not much else to say. Downloaded. Faved. Fived. Recommended to random strangers on the street.

Winterwind-NS responds:

Sweet, you even got a chainsaw murderer to review this song.

Agreeing with rocky about everything...

Except you probably should write sober. Writing under the influence generally means that the music is an effect of the substance, not an effect of your own brilliance, and you are quite brilliant.

Still great man. You should try writing some more fully romantic stuff, you'd be great at that.

10 stars from me.

Instrumentation.

Agreed. I don't believe many jungles would have strings or brass. The gong was a far cry as well. Sounds a little asian, and it sounds more desertish than jungle-ish, mainly because of the various strummed/plucked instruments, that would have evolved in areas like india. It's a nice ethnic piece, but the instrumentation is stretched over many different areas of the world, it would seem.

dontxthemusic responds:

Alright, well i was typing the description in a hurry. Go back and raed my new one. It might help explain what you thought was wierd about it. Thanks so much for your review!

Very nice.

The harmonies and everything are great, the orchestration is good. At times things can be a little cluttered. It doesn't have the tension I would expect for a piece about final judgement, until about the 3 minute mark. The little snippets of songs work together really well together, but i feel you could have broken this up and developed it into many different songs. Together, it tends to seem as though the piece lacks any overall direction or purpose. The couple chord movements at about 4:20 (haha, great number) are brilliant. Also loving the pizzicato and the xylophones.

You should take some advanced theory classes, you seem to be very good already, but some organization and direction can do a ton of good for any piece.

9/10, 5/5

dontxthemusic responds:

I know. Im only in my sophmore year, so I havent been able to take a music thory class. And yes, I really wish i could go back and make it more of a multi movement, but I didnt want to undertake anything so grandiose untill I get more familiar with everyhting, and get more instruments lol But yes, I wish I could create something like that. Might I reccomend you listen to the symphonic movements in The Devine Comedy? Grand things they are..Inferno is so ... Dark. and the Ascension is a VERY glorious piece. check it out ^_^

Seems completely random.

The song simply has no coherence, no direction, no feeling. I get the feeling you played random keys on a midi keyboard. It would do you some good to take theory or something. At the very least, listen to things before you submit them. Do you honestly think this sounds good?

If you keep trying, you could probably get somewhere, but this looks like a complete blob of nonsensical randomness to me.

Smidly responds:

Your MOM has no coherence. Yea...I showed you..

Also big words from a man whose songs all sound the same.

Def. a 5.

listening to it, the lead guitar sounds a bit like bon jovi's in dead or alive. But it's really an overall "groovy" piece, definitely something that would get me dancing, so cheers.

Musical-Pants responds:

Ha, Bon Jovi, that made me chuckle.
Thanks for the review!
