Reviews for "Solus- A Samurai's Lament"

Music Review #978

What a Brilliant and Beautifull piece of classical Music! I guess this is the best Classical Music I heard today! its so, err like hard-feeling. You can feel it, something that is in your head... In my mind, this says that is the past of my life, the things i did and done, happy life, sad life... and back... people died... people discover new things and so on... This music gives me back memories!
Well anyway, just Keep this up! you are doing a great awsome Job! so Keep it up~!~!

SolusLunes responds:

Thanks! :D

I See...

I see a Warrior staring off into the horizon after a large massacre and war... He then glances down at his bloody sword then puts it back to his sheath. Just then the sun rises and the damned dark grounds show a mark of light, a true other side of the war... The Long Lost Freedom Side...

I really am touched by this my friend, if you make another like it Message me and i'll look into it, a great piece that will be listened to over and over again by myself and others i will guess... Best of Luck in the Future!

Keep in Touch.

That's a cool story. I didn't think of it that way at all. Now I do, and I'm glad I do.

Thanks. :D

wonderful

I love the melody of that piano... kind of alike the Norwegian national-romantic stuff's melodies. Since that was the first thing I thought of, (and despite the title) I immediately thought of a traveller in the mountains, having a rest and watching the endless landscape of grey mountains and almost cloud-free skies. A bit of a reverbed wind sample would amplify that feeling a lot, and a bit more reverb overall, plus it'd give my image of it a feeling that it's almost on the very top of a mountain.

And again, there should in my opinion be some more reverb on certain parts, especially that piano. I dislike simple and plain pianos, so any massreverbed piano, I'll fucking love. The piano samples/instrument you used has a great, realistic sound on beforehand though, and again I absolutely love the melodies of it.

Flute and accordion rocks, but that accordion is hard to make sound great ('tleast to my ears) but you coulda made a bit less synthish instrument, or simply swap that instrument with another one of a similar texture to the sound. The drums sound good, but there's just a few hits, so I could see more of it there. Nothing big, not necessarily in a rhythm either, this track doesn't need a drum rhythm at all. But maybe a few snare hits and some toms once in a while? Lovely choir by the way

I loved this little track. Great and smooth sound, sounds like it could be the beginning to an absolutely mcgodly music story. Well done!

also like review me back or something lol

SolusLunes responds:

SBB, your suggestions are made of win. Especially those about the drums and wind. Snappy snare sounds so damn good here, as does added reverb.

And you have your review back. Go check it out. :D

This is excellent. This is the sorrows of the Samurai.

awesome man

dude as i was watching this, i saw a samurai in his house before a battle and he was meditating and sharpening his blade and pracicing stricking. then heading out to battle. this is a pretty visual piece. good job.

SolusLunes responds:

That's good imagery, right there. I want to see someone use this in a movie :D
