Reviews for "-Orr- ST Suspense"

Pretty good

Nice use of the drums there. And good choice of name, this really has a suspense feeling.
I really liked it at 00:45 when the piano and strings came, it was just awesome.

DavidOrr responds:

Thanks!

Nice

This isn't really my genre, but from what I can hear this sounds very good! Nice use of of sound effects!

And a good title too! Very suspenseful. I could easily imagine this being used as the score in an action movie.

Great work, and thanks for reviewing my song!

5/5 10/10

DavidOrr responds:

thank you for leaving your review! And, my pleasure!

Awesome.

Let's start with the very few cons.

The piano, for one. Expertly arranged, and nicely melded with the horns, but they seem to be a bit dry. I'm not sure if it's a lack of reverb, or the fact that they seem to get lost a bit in the massive bass of this track, since the low piano keys sound mediocre at best

Now for the rest.

Definitely gives a suspenseful feeling, and the random(ish) sounds of metallic tapping and water droplets are a strange but effective touch for something so fast paced.

I worry for the day I can't hear all of your music for free.

But then again, I also wish for nothing less than you to get the recognition you deserve, and possibly make a career out of. :D

DavidOrr responds:

Thanks for your comments! I'm glad you mentioned the dryness of the piano- I mixed this mainly on headphones so I was afraid some of the balances weren't quite right! Ill go in and adjust that before the final release!

I really enjoyed the ranom(ish) noises. I decided that going the full percussion route, I wanted to replace some aux percussion with synths. I think it gives it a more metallic feel, an it certainly is an interesting one. I'll probably experiment more with synth add-ons to the orchestra.

I'll always offer stuff free to the community- I really think it's vital that both the critical and casual listener should be encouraged to listen to modern music. What better way to entice the prospective ears than hand it to them? What they do with it is up to them. That said, I DO need to make some sort of an income, so I'll have to do some paid work. But there will always be stuff available to everyone!

Thanks a lot for stopping by and leaving a review!

Wow.

Sounds like something from the original Unreal Tournament. Brings back so many memories!

Honestly, there isn't a single thing I would change. Perfect.

DavidOrr responds:

Thank you! I hadn't thought about the UT music, but I could see how this would fir now. Thanks for the review and support!

You deserve it!

The volume buildup was extremely subtle (great for suspense, of course).
I hope you get hired and win a frickin' Emmy.
