Neat
Not too shabby dude. This got me headbanging in no time. There's some room for improvement but overall, its all good.
Reviews for "One Winged METAL!!"
Never was much a metal fan personally...
I don't really listen to heavy metal. Not entirely my type of music.
But I bet you're asking, "what's that suppose to mean?" It just shows how much attention this is attracting for those who don't listen to the genre.
I gotta say, the original Advent Children version of this song could do without the orchestral parts depending on the segments of the song. What you did here is exactly that. Not that the orchestral parts were bad, but that the heavy metal parts of it seemed to overpower it.
So what about your version? I gotta say, it still captures the essence of the original while being a whole complete genre of music rather than two that tried to fuse together while one overpowered the other.
I will have to say that the vocals should've been clearer, either they should've been higher in pitch or louder so that you could hear it along with the insturmentals. The omen part is practically the main melody of the whole song no matter what genre you take on it, but it got overpowered by the guitars. That is what I felt set back your score.
All in all, from a non-metal fan to a metal one, this is a really great song.
WOW! THE BEST IVE HEARD.....X_x
Im sorry, but there is someone on youtube whos got you beat with his own metal take of One Winged Angel. Yours is pretty good, but you know what? I said it above LOL!
I did however, LOVE the addition of the voices. Gives a good feel to advent children and the game itself. You should try to swing the voices to have less echo. THAT would be absolutly BAD ASS!
8-10 to you dude! ROCK ON

There's only 3 metal versions I know of and two of them I helped make including this one. The other one was the Advent Children version by the original composer.
Don't just say "there's one on youtube" because our original version of this is on there too which might be the one you're talking about in which case no it's not better. This version is far better in every way for these reasons: It's in the right key, the mixing is a little better, better drums and drum samples, better orchestra samples, the addition of vocals and better guitars.
Regardless, thanks for the review.
Surprising talent...
In a scale from 1 to ten where 1 represents Lady Gaga, and ten represents Nightwish, In flames and Slipknot, i give you 8.
This is an awesome work of talent. My best advice is to stop using Line 6 guitarport/plug your guitar into your computer/put on some digital distortion, and start using microphones on the amp. Did the trick for me.
Now, before you check my audio submissions, keep in mind that i share this account with my brother, so the only work you'll see on my account, if you even planned on checking it, were some of his fooling around on Reason.
Back to the song... In the intro, from 10 - 15, that one stroke, a phaser, or a flanger there would sound awesome. If you plan on re-doing that part, i would suggest that you use a 12 step phaser/flanger, and that one round lasts for those 5 seconds. And a little more gain on your shredding parts, maybe a little more gain? The squeals would be much more...tearing...thrusting...
Then, for the riffing, the rhythm guitar in general...If you boosted the 15K signal on an EQ, it would be awesome. Maybe some lo-cut, and a general boost around the hi-mid, but a hi-cut from 25k?
But all of what i mentioned here is how I would do it, based on my personal taste.
Now...The stop-riffs with palm muting from 0:32-0:40...some reverb? Preferably a dynamic reverb, that makes the signal lower during the actual playing, but boosts it when you stop? But i can see that you are a TRUE guitar player that relies only on the guitar, and the amp. I don't think you're a fan of effects. Considering most of this was, or sounded like a clean distortion, you did a great job.

I can't speak for John but I appreciate your input although I don't play guitar so I can't give any form of response other than thank you for taking the time to listen and review... and this following statement: The guitar playing style and articulation(s), etc. are all John's personal style and attitude and I wouldn't have it any other way. He put's himself in everything he does. I find it difficult to understand why someone would suggest a different way to play when it comes to this sort of thing and I would be almost offended but I know you don't mean to be rude in any way. He does what he can with what he has and does it better than anyone I've ever met, hands down. I do appreciate your input because, clearly, you know what you're talking about so let me be clear on this; my angry replies are to ignorant people who don't know a musical note from a fart and that I'm saying thank you for not being one of those people so there is no need for you to be defensive.
Im Sorry
I couldnt help but pose a reason for voting a 0/5.
Everything is out of place, and the vocals are from the original track. While it sound remotely similar to the original one, there's a lot of crapped noises in here. Especially the... wait... acoustic guitar at 3:12? what the frack?
Not to mention, One Winged Angel is just one song that cannot be remixed. At least remixed properly.
Next time, throw some more effort into it.

Usually before I cut into somebody for a bad review I check out some of their work first and buddy if you wanna talk about lousy effortless half-assed garbage you nailed it with your only two flash submissions. And honestly I think your OPINION about this track is bias considering how much of a techno fan you are which is probably why you can't appreciate real music in the first. I'm not saying all techno sucks but it's easy as fuck to make. Like literally the easiest "music" to make and if that is your idea of what all music should sound like all the time and like that every time you click a remix in the Video Game genre of the audio portal then you're a fucking idiot. Actually never mind you're just a fucking idiot anyway. Go fuck yourself shit head.
