Reviews for "Flow of Time"
KrisKrosNL responds:
lmao, I wasn't even thinking about martial arts when I composed this. =P
Very nice. I wuv you.
"Time is dependent on the subject. Those who move slowly take more, those who move quickly take less, but each think they take as much as everyone else. Every day seems longer while we're in it, then shorter the more days have passed. We do not know what time it will be, only what time we tell it to be. Seconds are only a name to organize us, but without that name, time has no boundary, it can stretch and move at will. Minutes turn to hours, years to weeks, months to blinks of an eye. Time is only existent through our eyes, and is the subject of one of the many things that makes humans different from any other living creature: we try to see what comes after it."
KrisKrosNL responds:
Thanks. That's a very interesting read about time. =3
Loved the beat and rhythm to it. The dynamics i loved it and i thought this is one of your strongest composition yet.
I though it was a bit "repetitive" and could use some dramatic effects and use a bit more of a different "direction."
i thought it could use a little more work to it, but as you said, your computer is laggy, so i can understand a bit
Keep the good work up!
KrisKrosNL responds:
I realized (from the third review on) that it's reason for repetition is the lack of main rhythm.
Thanks for the review.
Ohhh I like this.
Read your description, and I agree. It reminded me of the lyrics from a song I listen pretty often to: "The past is a method, the future an expectation. Neither past nor future actually exists... There is simply, the eternal now."
The sheer absoluteness of time is pretty incomprehensible for humans, but we both work to grasp the basics... You with music, me with a novel.
Now onward to the review:
I am pleased with the instruments used. Your songs sound -as you wanted- a lot more classical, while with avi's drumpack (hurr) you still keep the D&B in the song.
I am also pleased with the obvious progress you've been making. The intro was outright fantastic. It was quiet, yet intriguing. Then the bells started to come up, and everything exploded at once. The drums kicked in, and a few hits were tossed over the speakers.
This energetic part is something I like a lot. The drums actually do fit in perfectly this time, since you've found a good balance in volume.... well done.
A small negative point though; the hits are feeling kinda out of place, especially the one at 0:33. I like the hit5 you use more, but I understand if you don't want to KEEP using it. What I'm suggesting is that to find other hits.
I liked the bass too. It's a warm, buzzing one, which also blends perfectly. Well done.
Then, the quiet part at 1:00. Great stuff man. Seriously wondering what you used as main instrument there.
Anyway, it truly gives off a great feeling, as if you're walking through a gigantic hall, where all time stands still, where the great gods live... and you're allowed to venture through that place... great stuff, truly.
Then, a big 'fuck you' for your laptop. Tell it not to bitch about rendering another minute, since I am missing a good ending. It's truly a shame, since I removed .75 points from your score from it. I know it's something you can't do anything about, but I also can't be throwing '5's all over my reviews for songs I don't find perfect (or close to), with the concerning artist's standard. Speaking of which, yours has been raised again.
Great fucking job, I hope you'll be able to finish this (IMO -again- it's unfinished). This goes straight into my faves, and you'll get my precious download as soon as I find this song finished.
Keep it up!
KrisKrosNL responds:
Thanks for the review (and perhaps the longest you've ever written).
Ofc I'd use Avi's drum pack (other packs that I used weren't as good) and it had to stay more D&B than something else.
I would have replaced the strange hit at 0:33 if I could; lagging, you know.
Yeap, fuck my laptop. I'll remake this into 3~4 minutes once I manage to get my hands on a pro laptop or super PC.
Wow Chris, this song just sounds different from your previous works; it sounds much better in terms of quality! I can still hear native sounds, but some of it is different. My only argument against this song is the lenght. Make it longer!
