Reviews for "_-={Endearing Blaze}=-_"

err

you havent answered my pm so i will ask you in a review

What system is this and how much did it cost?

*falls asleep*

MaestroRage responds:

I didn't? My apologies Krios D:

The setup in complete?

Well my computer cost me $700, 3.0 ghz dual core, 2 gigs of ram, 250 gig harddrive

Fruity Loops cost me $200 (or around there I believe)

My libraries cost me around $3,000, and these libraries include
East West Symphonic Orchestra Gold PRO XP
East West Symphonic Choirs
East West RA
East West Ministry of Rock *waiting on this one*
Project SAM's True Strike

So total: $3,800 ish

Hope that helps!

Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it!

relaxing

the sudden change of instrument made this piece interesting, when i try to change something so suddenly i screw it up, i can tell its something to relax and to concentrate
the fire in the backround made this piece really calm, i listened to this like 20 times in a row and it loops almost perfect

i can see this in a video game when the ''hero'' sits next to his friends with a fire and trying to get some rest for the long way home

i am wonderwing what vst you use for the most of your music, sounds like east west orchestra im not sure

the woodwond sounds like an oboe, and the tremolo strings( hope i am right lol) adding a real nice effect to it, i think im hearing a choir behind the tremolostrings

keep up your great work
i really like this piece only one thing

if the campfire would sound more far away dunno how to explain, the fire kinda dominates the track, but its just me so ignore that lol

MaestroRage responds:

You're quite right Zajed, the fire is a tad strong, but thats the way I like it :D! See it's quite foolish for me but I always love to imagine that i'm sitting beside a crackling fire pit when i'm writing things down. It gets me into the mood of writing something wonderful and strange. If only I could write music on paper, I wonder what would flow through my hands then.

There are no tremelo strings, but legato cello chords. The oboe and cello's made an excellent introduction. it was first just the oboe to be honest, with the fire. But I felt that made the beginning and ending far too different, and in loop mode *which you must have noticed*, the difference would have ruined it's ambiance. In order to keep the two relatively connected cello chords were introduced.

The VST I use most is in fact East West Symphonic Orchestra Gold PRO, and Symphonic Choirs, though for this one i'm using an older gem from East West called East West Voices of Passion. It is a discontinued product, and I was very lucky to find it online and purchased it right away. It was quite well priced and it provides some very excellent samples.

There is also a choir behind the cello chords at some segments, good ear, I did not think many would catch them.

Thank you for the review Zajed, coming from you it's a real compliment. I'm glad you liked it!

Ya Know What?

This song is just like all your others, and I mean that in a good way. I can see the work you put into all of your work (I assume that's why they call it that) and I find myself listening to each of your songs over and over again. I could take the time to say this about all of your work, but that would take ages to write sixty reveiws.

What I especially liked about this peice is that the fire, although constantly heard, never seemed to get old. I'm not sure about the rest of you, but I quite liked the atmosphere of the piece.

MaestroRage, you might inspire me to create great work, but I'm sadly musically incapable. Which is a big bummer. (Pulls hair out)

May all your yaks be merry and skies blue,

MaestroRage responds:

Hello WeepingMaestro. I really like your name :D!

I am humbled to hear you find yourself listening to the pieces again and again. It is with the hope of inspiring, of entertaining that I make them all, I hope they give you that idea or spark which often sends me flying to my computer for all nighters.

The fire does in fact add to the ambiance, I am confident that the fire in fact, makes most of it. It remains as a constant anchor and constant vibe which allows the listener to focus on other things. it's like listening to a low humming, soon enough you forget about it. The fire was my hope of doing the same thing while also giving the listener an image in the event that they did want to focus on the song itself.

Remember to take it one day at a time my good sir, anybody can do what I do, if they simply stay at it long enough :).

Best of luck to your endeavors, thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it!

but of course

i dont so much see ambiance, i see three people sitting around a fire, one holding a knife, another holding an ax and the third holding a sword, as their eyes dart back and forth they all have only one thought, "who is going to fall asleep first"

this is great for my short vid im putting on yt

this sounds like a type of music when the twin towers got attacked its sooo sad today is 9-11 :(
