Be sure to rename this (if you download it) to "Protector's Vengeful Fist"
Go to my userpage for all the songs listed and see if any new ones are out.

This is my first track of my cover album, Sonic 3 & Knuckles: The Act 3 Chronicles.
Act 1 boss.
This was done months ago, but I wanted to submit 2 at a time, so I had to wait until I completed the other, which should be accessible from my userpage.
I enjoy the beginning, but theres alot of bad timing in it, in the middle atleast.
I'm still new at this, so bear with me.

I really have no comment for it except, the end result is really good and epic, so enjoy it.

It's good, but it needs work

The brass/harp are out of tune with echother at the start. The quick brass notes sound cut off, those sorts of samples are meant for more sustained notes. After that it gets better. Then, the guitar like sound, it doesn't really blend well with the other instruments. The pan flutes are nice, except for a few pitch (I'm thinking the pitch discrepancies were intentional here?) and timing issues, and when they go too low. THe pan flute is a high pitched instrument, and only really sounds good within those higher frequencies. The best part, I would have to say was when the pian came in. You get some good pace there, and the tune really powers through. It was probably the part with the best mix too, most of the time the lead didn't stand out enough, as it was drowned out by the parts that should have been supporting it.

If I were you, I'd probably use the guitar a lot less, bring the melody out some more and balance the mix of instruments better. Keep using that piano though, if you were to have the piano as the harmony throughout your songs, and maybe give the flute or harp the lead, or maybe try using a violin every now and then, that would be damned awesome. The drums were great, too, not overpowering, but they gave out a good forward momentum for the track.

Sorry to sound so negative, but there are fundamentals that are missing from your music, such as a more cohesive blend of instruments. There are flashes of great work here, there really is, and I'd love to see you turn those short passages of great work into full songs.

Keep it up, man! Let me know when you get some more music out, and I'll review them for sure. Keep on working at it, and keep on improving. I look forward to the rest of the album.

You're not sounding negative at all.
I appreciate and will respond to all of your advice.
Thanks.
And yes, the pitch dissapearances were intentional in the pan flute, you could tell that in the end when its done right.

nice remix!

epicness seeps out of every pore, good job, bits of it sound like old midis, but of course you had to work within the limit of your materials, and it works out pretty good all the same, nice job!

knuxrouge responds:

Thanks.
I'm kinda ashamed of this one.
I felt like I could do better.
