"How....? :?"

by: GothStorm

date: January 19, 2009

I have to disagree the intro is quite alright, since some of the instrumentals were still being used throughout the song. It has a complicated arranged feel (I don't even know what that means, :D) but it works. The feel of the piece feels neutral, neither full of joy or writhing in misery, in fact quite as neutral as death, in a way. The japanese is there, but at the same time it's not. It reminds me of death in a snowy day in a free landscape...... Or heaven..... Or the mind in it's purest state. Excellent job.

GothStorm's score: 10.0
GothStorm's comment: I need some help on FL Studio, just asking if you can help me or give me some tips............... ha ha

Thanks! I actually had a pretty rudimentary knowledge of FL Studio when I made this song. I think it shows, too - the synths are simple, there are very few filters or frills, and the EQ is strangely inconsistent. There's not much in the way of tips that I can give you, other than stick with it. I gave up FL Studio for about a year back in 2003 because I was frustrated with it. I'm very glad I returned to it, though.

"Pelo Says..."

by: Pelemus-McSoy

Pros?
~Soothing.
~Calm.
~Doesn't get old.

Cons?
~Beginning seems...out of place compared to the rest of the song.

Overall?
I gotta say, this song is neither happy nor sad...but rather comforting instead. Although the beginning promises something more...vibrant I guess is the word, the rest of the song is mellow and soothing...not that it's a bad thing, it just seems...odd.

Regardless, I like to listen to this song because of its comforting nature. It's good to listen to when someone wants to relax, but without wanting any emotional baggage.

Kudos! =D

Back in early 2005, that was my idea of an intro! It doesn't connect to the song... but it's there! Man, this song is chunky. It has a lot of unevenness, but the main hooks really do save it. I'm sounding like a broken record in my review responses for this song, but this one is long overdue for a remake. Thanks for the review!

"I hate to play follow the leader, but..."

by: Loader2K1

Like the last two reviewers said, this track has a very "Japanese" feel to it. It also captures the feel of a summer night, when you are at home with nothing to do. How ironic that it was posted here back in January of 2005. Keep up the good work!

It's an out-of-season tune, that's for sure :) I only have two songs that are strictly seasonal, which are my two Christmas songs. I don't think I'll ever top A Mothman Christmas Carol, though, so I think my days of Christmas tunes are done. Thanks for the review!
