This is the longest song I've made so far, and I can't believe how good it ended. I wanted to make something calm and yet sad at the same time, and this came up. Hope you like it. Enjoy!

"Great stuff...but..."

date: August 3, 2009

As I said, this is GREAT stuff.

The piano is absolutely phenomenal... but I feel the second instrument kills the effect. Perhaps it's because the sound is synthesized, I'm not certain.

It creates an Asian effect, there's no doubt... but are you certain that is what you were aiming for? The sorrow carries on until exactly 2:45... then the song begins anew.

Of course, these are just my opinions and I'm a huge fan of truly SAD music.

In any case well done and PLEASE make more, your creation was great here and I hope to see more in the future.

"Erhu"

date: July 7, 2009

Oh I like this!!! That erhu reminds me of a Samurai movie. In a matter of fact it could be used in a movie. The beat goes in nicely too. What VST instrument was that at 2:19-2:22?

This song was just what I was looking for. Thanks so much!!! KS666

"My favorite of the day!"

by: serio
date: December 1, 2008

What could I say! I love the feeling, the softness, the delicacy of how each sound match each second on the rhythm, I imagine blue mountains, a green sky, an orange river, I don't know, but then at time 1:30 and at time 2:20 it turns even better, I can feel the space and the stars, man that's a really good music you are doing. Honestly, I like it. The guitar at 3:50 was my favorite, the music at 5:20 and the effects are like a good arroz con habichuela to my paladar! Great!

I will download this one straight away!
10/10 + 1 and 5/5 +1 on this one, that's like an A++bonus 2

"Perfect"

by: Fiadys
date: November 10, 2008

Really enjoyed this.
Thank you :)
I agree about the chinise feel - it makes it so soothing.
And it still feels great when the drums kick in.
Really like the end.
I also like how the main instrument changes.
