Chilling.
I love it. The tone of the song. The instruments. The quality of it. Everything about this is just haunting and morbid sounding. The slow fade from piano to Organ. Great work sir, you have succeeded in creating one of the creepiest songs I have ever heard.
I love it.
Quite evocative.
I came across this theme in the intro of the Mega Man X RPG game, and although I'm a huge fan of the original Mega Man saga music, this one stood head and shoulders above the other themes.
How great a mood you set right from the beginning, with the needle-on-a-record crackling. The music box melody is so well done, it is indeed ideal for a "flashback" setting. It even "winds down" at the end. The orchestral piano and organ accompaniment adds a nice haunted house, Castlevania feel. This is the best mood piece I've witnessed in my time on NewGrounds. Every element is spot-on, the sum of which makes for a perfect background storytelling/old memories theme.
Whoever downvoted LordofFlame's review 8 or so down from here is insane! He described the setting this song takes you better than I could have... a child hovering over a music box in a dusty old house, both of which dissolve into thin air when the song ends. What an eloquent way to describe this piece; I agree wholeheartedly. I'm going to upvote that review as many times as it takes to get back positive ^_^
What a wonderful piece you've crated. I don't review much music on NewGrounds, but this one moved me to do so. Bravo.
I did put a lot of thought into this peice and it is one of my favorites, hopefully I can produce more like this, though I want to do something different as this peice does seem to stand out as a rarity
Thanks for your thoughtful comments
Very sinister and haunting....
The song was very chilling.
It makes me feel as if someone was watching you, some ghost.
I must say that I rarely come upon such unique dark songs here.
Keep up the great work!
creepy
this sounds like those korean horror movies great song for halloween.
You know.....
I wonder if this would be useful in an anime...Just my opinion but whatever. This song is great!Actually lives up to its name. Perfect for a creepy scene or someone special to you has died or maybe your just reminiscing the past.........
10/10

Your actually spot on, This peice was made shortly after we had a death in the family and I was reflecting on their life, they also had a music box which gave me the inspiration :) Thanks for the review
