"Nice Work!"

date: July 3, 2008

Reminds me of someone telling an inspiring speech about fighting a battle, and while she's telling the speech, the people are fighting--and winning. Nice job.

"Simply Amazing."

date: July 2, 2008

I could see this as a triumphant return theme in a revolutionary movie or something. It gave me shivers down my spine! I loved it!

I definitely felt this piece as cinematic also.

Were you at all aware that you are a god?

Honestly I don't think I'm that good. Jazza, MaestroRage, F-777, Bosa, Sorohanro, and many others (sorry, off the top of my head) THEIR work is amazing. Glad people listen though.

"Im Speechless"

date: July 1, 2008

I hear some pretty good things on this website but this sounds like something straight out of a movie. I can really imangine this going with Native Idigenoius American Peoples, the American Revolutionary War, AmericanCivil War, or just of someone coming back home from a battle. The track itself needs no improving on its perfect the way it is.

"Perfectly."

date: July 1, 2008

That`s a great song. There's not much i want to write or know about it. i just want to listen and i think thats a good sign. When i listen to this song, i dont think about, how it's written, or what u could make better. it's simply there and its good.

"Nice"

date: June 30, 2008

A pretty solid and great song, not really my style though, I like the more modernized orchestral songs; like with guitar/hip-hop beats/modern drum sets but that's just me. But either way, this song is great, keep this stuff coming man, oh yeah, and why not try some the orchestral styles I mentioned above? I think you'd be great at it!

Author's Response:

Ahh yes, I like that kind of stuff too. Harry Gregson-Williams does a great job with that. I'm just not that good.

This is the best song in the Friekin World!!! All the instruments add up to a feeling that we all can get along and never perish.

"Incredible"

date: June 30, 2008

This song is certainly worthy of being at the top of the Classical section! You've already heard from me before, but this song is just so grand, it never hurts to comment on it again. :)

The beginning of the song feels like the horns of battle are blown, and the snare is an excellent add to feeling. The choir emanates a unique seriousness that you can only find out on the battlefield.

Hearing the drums of war enter at 0:40 signals the beginning of the end. My favorite part of the song is definitely 0:48, where the rough strings enter into the scene. It feels as if the soldiers have appeared on the battlegrounds, and the real fight commences.

The song escalates at 1:07 once the instruments take a higher octave, setting the stage for later changes in the piece. I love this section (from 0:48 - 1:26), because you don't have to focus on the changes of the music, and it gives you time to just listen to the majestic voices of the winds and choir.

Then there's a key signature change at 1:27, and it alters the mood. Although you can still see the same battlefield of soldiers, something new - but unnameable - comes from the slight, sometimes unnoticeable change. A greater feeling of determination, perhaps you could say.

I would have to agree with DevilDog in one aspect though, and that would have to be the abrupt ending. I guess I could see this as a cinematic trailer music, but it would have been nice to having something more resounding than just a quick finish. Other than that, fantastic work. I loved it.

@SamNichol: People can write what they want. I personally encourage stories. It's like a personal interpretation.

Author's Response:

I have to agree with that last part too. I always kind of have a vision in my head as I listen to music. But, whatever. Thanks for the continued listening!

"Excellent song but...."

date: June 30, 2008

DevilDog this is the second entry that ive seen by you that tells a soppy little story. Dude, if you want to write books, write them, not on the god damn review board.

Anyway, nice music!
