Reviews for The Darkest Place of All-MAC8

Depressing

Really good ambiental stuff, you really hit the right 'depressed' feel with the slow background synths, heavy bells and high-pitched noises. I liked the way you didn't attempt to make a clearly defined melody in order of achieving the chaotic feeling of sadness. Liked it a lot, hope you get a good position on the MAC!

Flash-MX responds:

Thank you very much! I was going over and over a few melodies and chord progressions, but I felt that the real, real sad feeling comes from almost atonal sounds, musical indifference in other words,
Thanks again!

Flash-MX responds:

Thanks, you too!! I'm gonna go check out your entry later; and also thanks for the remedy for those damned pesky zero-bombers, I left my initial vote empty and 3 votes later it was 0. Thats saying something :(

Thanks again!

sooo great

I love your ambiance ability. It just keeps getting better. I want to see your stuff in some really awesome game and not just in my sorry excuse for a dressup flash.

Hey Cayler, thanks again for the support! I'm still glad that the music was at least put to use :D

Darkest

Ever feel like you've got someone who has your song bookmarked and just comes back at 12:01am every night for their own pleasure...

Anyways, this is great, Flash. The ambience really shines through here with all the effects like the bells and other random noises in there. I can really envision a town from the middle ages that's been somehow cut off from the rest of the world for 800 years until present day, but have somehow barely been able to sustain themselves.

That's the sort of impression I got from here. It's like the people are still alive but they are barely just surviving. Feel free to expand on that haha.

This is a great change from the other song and really fits well into the competition theme. There's a lot of good entries and this one is especially good. Great job and good luck!
