Iffy
Good for loops, but I liked it, by the way ... garage band is a terrible program man.
Reviews for "Mass Effect"
Hey its me again! Nice job!
I like the drums and the song as a whole. The tones are the only thing I found inconsistent, and could have been alleviated with longer or more gradual transitions. Otherwise, its a solid piece, congrats.
(psst i was the guy that caused you some confusion on ur song 'emotionally screwed' lol sry)
AvatarKami responds:
Thanks for the review. Yeah, it does transition rather fast. Oh, and don't worry about the Emotionally Screwed thing, I actually appreciated you letting me know about that possibility. Thanks for another review ^_^

you know...
I like it, but the ten comes from the flanger on the drums. It does stretch on a bit though.
This really is a song of many parts, the first reminding me of a jungle sneaky mission, the second (about 1:36 to 2:26) reminding me of space exploration. The rest just kinda sounds like the end credits of a movie.
It is a good song, but the three parts could do very well as songs by themselves.
P.S. I have never played Mass Effect.
P.P.S. I would appreciate it a lot if you would review some of my songs!

Holy ****
Wow , Keep going Dude. This is one tight beat , Very Solid! Good job man.
Nice Work
Very nice song. It's bright and cheery, and yet at the same time very lax. The piano fits very well into the ambiance. In my opinion, I feel the song would flow better if not for the transition at 1:38, from slightly harder sounds to the softer tones which remain for the rest of the song. This is no great matter though, and mostly preference on my part, I just feel it would give a little more unity to an already solid song.
That said, and in response to vaifan90 (below)'s comment; I didn't believe his statement at first, yet after comparing this and "Relaxing Time" (also in the audio Portal), there is a full 25 second stretch, beginning at 2:24 on this song and 1:04 on the other, which are Exactly the same when heard side to side, save the subtle ambiance in the background of yours. Melody, pitch, even timbre are the same otherwise. I hate to say it, but that would be one incredible coincidence. If you did use the little stretch of music from him, just go on and say it; there's a lot of great music on the audio portal, and more than enough remixes, and no one is going to care if you take a portion of another song and admit it.
Cheers!

First of all thanks for the review and your input on the song itself. Secondly, I would like to address the "Relaxing Time" coincidence once more (and hopefully for the last time). Point one, there are several subtle differences in the two parts form the two songs. Point two, I make my own stuff, I don't believe in remixes. Point three, both Wii1 and I used Garageband and there are only so many loops to use. Point four, check the submission date on Wii1's piece, then check the date on my older submission called Emotionally Screwed. The reason I say this is that at about 1:11 in that song I have almost the same piano part, which I then reused in this song because I liked it so much. And I submitted that song last year, whereas Wii1's song was submitted, early this year. So yeah, defiantly not copying. I could even show you the breakdown of Mass Effect and Emotionally Screwed in Garageband on my computer where you can see that I have assembled the pre-made loops in Garageband to make these piano sections. So yeah, thats my response. I think I proved my point.
