Sure, as long as you give credit, go right ahead! ^_^

Gets my yes!

these are some EXCELLENT guitar samples! Where did you get them?! I've been searching for ever so long :'(

In fact, everything you use in this song is so damn crisp and clear. But thats not important, onto TEH SONG!

The song flows really well, the diverse mix of sounds really adds that schweet flavor. Especially after that build up break and you brass with those strings!

I don't know about that transition back to it though, that part seemed just a tad... strange.

The ending was pretty abrupt too, but acceptably so.

I would have to say definitely my favorite part of this song is the intro. That guitar, and the gradual build, was simply pure awesome. The oboe that came on later though, did not seem to suit the other instruments so well. Maybe dissonance reasons, or because the rest of the song seemed to say "peppy, upbeat!" and that oboe seemed to want to slow things down.

All in all though, brilliant song! Keep up the good fight and keep em coming!

That instrument is a piano-esqe instrument known as the harpsichord. It orginated around the 15th, and was also known as the "virginal" in England. :D

But enough about music history; I found that soundfont on www.hammersounds.net. If you want a really Medieval sounding guitar, go with the lute or the mandolin for that authentic flavor. (I sound like I am advertising a food joint. :P)

Yeah...I've never really been great with outgoing transitions: I'm reworking this song (this is the 3rd version, actually) and I will fix both the middle transition (not the french horn fanfare though...I like it waaaay too much) and the ending. I want this song to loop perfectly, and it sounds too much like an ending to me than a loop. :P

Thanks for pointing the oboe out to me Maestro...that instrument does make it sound like it slows down the "peppiness" of the song. I'll change it back to a flute or a high piccolo. :D

Thanks for your review Maestro! ^_^ It really has helped. :)
