I think that this loop is amazing, and im sure the whole thing would be even better. I think that you are an amazing artist, keep it up! :)
Reviews for "-Orr- Outnumbered"
nice
nice job in making music hope you come out with more
Admirable
I've always enjoyed your orchestral pieces. This one is no exception.
Let's see. The part from 0:07 to 0:13. I think that the last two or three seconds could have more build in dynamics. This can then be kept high until the piano chords at 0:19 to 0:20 release the tension and let the dynamics drop back down for the six second portion of 0:21 to 0:27. And then the build from 0:28 to 0:31 was pretty nice. The part from 0:39 to 0:42 is well done. Great climb and then release afterwards.
Mostly the song is great as it is. It loops well and works for the battle theme that you're writing it for. Having played Sonny, I think this will work well. I only think that there could be more dynamics in those sections I mentioned. Well... not so much as in more volume, but a wider RANGE of dynamics. Either way, the song is very good.
Great job! I'd love to hear more from you in the future!

Close, but didn't quite hit the spot
Yay! Another sign that Sonny 2 is coming closer to release. :)
I liked the theme used at the beginning of the song, but as it progressed, I didn't get the "deep" and "epic" feeling that I got from Heroic Confrontation, one of you greatest masterpieces (in my opinion).
I can't quite say I know how it should be edited, but maybe change the song so that it gives you more of a feel of a "battlefield"? Part of the song really gave you this imagery, but the other half didn't quite feel like it "fit."
Sorry if this was kind of unhelpful description-wise, but I can hope you can another grand final result like Heroic Confrontation for Sonny 2!

There is always going to be a special place in my heart for the original Sonny music. Something about the combination of of the game and music really clicked for a lot of people, and it's quite a feat to match it. But I'll walk you through my logic about the music for Sonny 2.
I wanted something a bit different this time around. I wanted music that wasn't quite a stereo-typically "epic", but had a fresher feel to it. That said, I realized there would be many people that would want some music that packed the same kind of punch the original music did. So, I decided to make a new battle piece from the ashes of Duty Calls and Heroic Confrontation (which is not on Newgrounds yet). I feel that this piece is even more epic than the original music for Sonny, so hopefully that will satisfy your thirst for deep epic music!
Thanks for the review!
Its nice...
Though I think it needs a bit more bass... but the music is still good nonetheless.
DavidOrr responds:
If I do make a longer version of the piece, I'll definately re-master it and add some more bass to give it more of a "hollywood sound". Right now, however, any more bass with start to clash with some of the sound effects we're brewing up, so we can't adjust frequencies much more than they already have been tweaked. Nonetheless, I'll look into how the bass sits in the mix and see if I can make any tweaks.
Thanks for the review!
