Love it
The beginning sounds like it should be in a pirate movie :3
But aside from randomness, Very well done piece, 5/5 10/10
I also like your tip because without headphones I couldn't hear the bass in the BG.
Reviews for "<EagleGuard> The Journey"
EagleGuard responds:
Haha, didn't know I made something pirate-like xD
Most of the time headphones sound better than speakers, unless you have surround sound speakers or something similar.
Thanks for the review! =)
no,wait!!!
Spysociety,leave the bookwriting to me.
if it's done i want to make a game of this,and this could perfectly suit in a victory scene.
permission to use if i would make the game?
EagleGuard responds:
Permission granted. Now go and make that game freakin' awesome, soldier!
(And thanks for the review ^^)
GREATEST CLASSICAL!
Your classical submission was one of the most cool orchestral/classical songs I ever heard! I liked how this seems like a patriot theme, this is combine in all 100% ways with a war movie or patriotical film as I said, every instruments are in your defined synchroinzing, everything estabilished, the rythim was awesome, just I think maybe your drums could be a bit better, because it looks like a popcorn during the intro, more to the song of your audio piece, it looks like more a real military drum.

Now for the topics list:

{NAME}
"The Journey" was an interesting name, what did this song really catch and insteresting during it's perform. But, by 'Journey' it reminds me some space adventure, what most reminds me on this, are like World War II movies or Civil War ones. If this is be to refered to space, this can reminds me the astronauts backing to an outer space mission and being honoured and then with the flag behind, it would fit a lot with all your compose, so your name was a great choosing. Nice job!
{CONCEPT}
Your concept looks like one of the most detailed I have ever listen to, if you see, I imagined into Second World War movies, patrotical films, space/astronauts/universe movie and also reminds me in some places shipbattle movies, I can write an all book with all the things I imagined during listen to your awesome orchestral soundtrack. I already heard a lot of symphonic orchestras and classicals, but this one is the first one I can imagine so much things, usually I imagine one background through a story, but yours I imagined like ten ways of telling a tale or a storyboard, please do more good like these ones, you're rare man, keep your brilliant work!
{PERCUSSION}
The percussion during parts as 01:40, is pretty good were the drums seems to play everything correct, but look in the intro from the melodies, during the beginning of the song, they looked like popcorns or some kind of fingers easily beating in a table, they don't look at all like drums, this WAS the ONLY bad thing in this audiotrack, else it would be a 10. Combined with other instruments as the 'patriotic times', it is really perfect, also keep the nice job, just try to add more good sounds to the percussion!
{INSTRUMENTS & RYTHIM}
The instruments are amazing for an orchestral piece, because it used my favorite ones, sorry I'm saying instruments were not used here, but I think are trombones, trumpets, percussion bell, drums (of course), fiddles/violins, cello and maybe a french horn. Everything sounds so perfect! The rythim from this one was one of the most and more cool things I have ever listen to in a classical song in ALL MY LIFE, I never heard to great-rythim classical art piece, this should be published to all the ENTIRE WORLD, try to sell it on shops, internet or whatever, please. The sounds as I said loads of time here, reminds me the war movies and honor times, is so good how with trumpets you create a scene like that, I'm impressioned with all your effort into this, and please, if you create another classical song, don't forget to PM me, I want to listen a lot more from your brilliant orchestral songs, your song looks like honour-action-squadron movement-patriotic-heroic-honour, it fits all together, also I never found so good syncronizing in all my life (as I said loads of times here). Also you made me obssessed to listen to this song, is so good.
{OVERALL}
One of the most brilliant symphonic orchestras I ever heard with an awesome composing and with the MOST BRILLIANT CONCEPT I EVER FOUND IN ALL MY LIFE, so perfect rythim and good quality into this song, perfect attachments too, instruments were well choosen, please do more from classical!
Thanks for let me listen to this awesome soundtrack!
I hope people use your audio in their movies/games!
I added to my favorites list!!
I gived you a 9 score, just because I think you could have done something more in the 'popcorn' drums, they looked not so good.

EagleGuard responds:
Wow, that's one huge-ass review xD
First of, thanks for the compliments! I'm really flattered. I didn't think anyone would like it THAT much =p
About the drums, yeah... I know now that I should've paid more attention to them, as the guy before you stated as well. I didn't think they were that important, guess I was wrong. Will try to improve it in my next song though ;)
Not sure if I'm good enough to actually sell my stuff to the world at this moment, although I will try to do so in the future.
Glad you liked the song, I spent quite some time trying to get it to sound right. Glad it worked out OK =)
Again, thanks for the awesome review. Will do my best to improve ;)
The first thing that stuck out for me...
The ?stomps? (can't tell for sure, I'm using quite crappy headphones) in the beginning needs to be fuller, to really carry the rhythm, and not get drowned out by the heavy chords. This might also be my headphones, but I'm almost positive it isn't.
Melody and Harmony- 10
You've done some pretty creative things with this melody, and it really drives the theme of your song very well.
Rhythm- 6
At some parts, it doesn't seem to have a central beat, it's just playing to drive the overall tempo. It's clear that your strong point is melody and harmony, I can tell. However, you do some great things with the rhythm at certain parts, for example, at the :11 area (the drums need to be fuller, perhaps add a snare or better yet, a bass drum on the rhythmically important parts of the beat), the :32 area, the 1:12 area, and the last section.
Instruments- 8
Unfortunately, while the melody is good, the dynamics and expression seems to be the same throughout for each instrument. I wish you would have put more emphasis on expression and dynamics, as I can only see significant dynamic activity when you add or remove playing instruments or in the playing of the drums.
Beginning- 8
The intro stomps continue to mess with me, and that unfortunately extends for the ending too. Speaking of which...
End- 9
The most stand-out aspect of the end, its suddenness, is important for this song, and sounds great.
Overall, 8 out of 10. Yeah, I had a lot of complaints, but I still liked this song. Good job man, hope to hear more from you.
EagleGuard responds:
Hey man, first off: thanks for taking your time to write a serious review, much appreciated =)
The drums... Yeah, I guess you're right there. I didn't really pay a lot of attention to them at first, but I think I could've indeed done a bit more with them. I'll try to improve it in future songs.
About the dynamics and expression, I'll try to work on that as well.
Thanks for the 8 and the feedback! Will do my best to improve the things you said.
