I was inspired by paragonx9's 16 bit song, defcon zero. This song isnt really that 16 bit'ish, except for the snare.

Hope you like this, chuck down a review!

Peace :D

"very nice"

date: October 28, 2009

this is a piece of music with a lot of potential with a good rhythm and melody and i personally like the distorted TB-303 sounding bassline yet the only thing to note on is that i think the bassdrum may need a little punch so try layering bassdrums on one and other to create a thicker, punchier sound

"WipeOut!"

by: Coop83
date: October 4, 2009

This tune just seems to fit the profile of the zero-g racing game, WipeOut so well, that I'm seriously considering digging out my copy of it to have a quick blast :P

Great pace and a lovely beat that carries the tune on through a series of phases, with some nice sounding instruments to boot. Nothing seems overly dominant and ever instrument that you've thrown in there seems to have had a great chance to shine, which is important.

I'd just suggest that when you put that solo in there that with the keyboards coming along and playing a fast piece of looped music, you give it something a little more 'up there' and give the instrument a real chance to come through as the alternative driving force, as a piano can be :)

"Wow, this is so VG-ish..."

date: October 3, 2009

...Don't worry, that's a good thing. I enjoyed this quite a bit. Still, like Darklight, I feel like being evil and giving you a 9 as well because of a few problems X).

The melodies were superb, and were really varied, just like Haggard said. I liked the background accompaniment with the piano-ish melody, since it sounded really video-gamish and cool. I'd work on its variety though, if I were you. The instrument choice was really nice. I liked the high bells over here, and the main instrument was cool, but after some time got quite annoying. You should add a few more instruments, like some square-based synths and some plucked instruments. One of the best parts of this song were the laser and alien-ish sound effects, IMO. They sounded excellent.

The transitions were really good and the melodies flowed excellently together. The transition from the main synth to the bells melody was quite cool, and the effect buildup at the beginning was pretty nice. Really cool song structure, and great variety as well. I liked the part where the piano was playing only at 1:46, it sounded fantastic while not disrupting the fast-paced feel of the song. Still, the intro wasn't that impressive, and neither was the ending. I think this song would be much better off if you looped it. Firstly, I think you should take away the first 15 seconds of the song so the action-packed parts start straight away, and then remove the sound effect you had at the end. It should make it loop much better, and more flash artists would become interested in having it in their submissions.

The drums really weren't that special, and although they were just the right loudness, I was expecting a more action-packed drum beat with more than just a kick and snare. I'd say some tambourines, shakers hi-hats. and more types of snares and kicks wold do a good job on this. Maybe you could try some reverse cymbals and reverse kicks over here too. Still, the drums you have now are really varied, and transit from one melody to another.

It's a really cool sounding song, with just a few flaws. It'd do great in a flash submission if you remove the effect at the end and the first 15 seconds of the song and make it a loop, or you could always submit another version of this song except looped. Anyway, whatever; good job, keep up the great work!
9/10
5/5 - Man, this has some awful 0-bombing onto it. I don't think you should mass PM people to review your submissions, it'd attract more 0's. :\

"Very, very good!"

date: October 2, 2009

But still, i haven't given you a ten :D (Aren't I evil??). Sry but there were some things i noticed which got you the nine...

Intro was great and well thought out, providing the main melody with a starting climax. Liked the way that the main melody faded into the song and took over from the starting intro melody. Transition here was overally smooth although i'm not a particular fan of that small silence you put in the beginnin.

Instrument variation was were u lost the point. In my opinion, you used the same instrument too much and although you may argue that this is what is expeted from a video game song, you still could've included more 8-bit isntruments...

Variety was pretty good too. The interludes you put in some parts of the song provided it with enough variety to make the listener crave for more (and take my advice...that's a good thing).

Background music was fine, the song had pretty good blend and the depth of the whole thing was great too. i liked the alienish sound effects you put into some parts. they gave the whole thing a good video game feel.

Another thing i didn't like though was the ending. It cut off too abruptly and elft you scratching your head and saying "That's it?!?!". Maybe you could work on that ;)

Overall, it was pretty good. I can honestly picture myself hearing this as i play a video game wher i'm trying to run away from a beastie. Very fast-paced rythm. Good work!

Yep it is a vg song :D Thanks

Much variets, The ending was rushed I suppose, or I ran out of inspiration. Maybe I should have released it later,

I never usually change my song after it has been submitted, although I should. Maybe in 2 years later I might go change everything, but I would have probably deleted the .fla's by then :D
