Thats what I had in mind when I started this song! Thanks for the review!

I get the feel of some good old fashion RPG's that you'd play on the PS1. The kind of relaxing songs that would be great for a lot of city or town background music. Simple, but effective. (Just like that last song I reviewed)
I do find this one got a bit repetitive. I thought it was probably about 30 seconds to even a minute too long in length as well. I really feel that your song wouldn't hurt from being shortened a bit.
All in all though it was a good song to listen to. For not knowing much about the genre you did a pretty good job with the classical sound in this song.

Herdunculus responds:
Wow, thanks for such a positive review! I am quickly working on shortening the length, and I will submit it as soon as possible. As for the RPG thing, I actually was thinking of something like that when making this song, so I'm glad it gave the impression I wanted. Thanks again for the nice review!

That's a nice song, man!! It's an up music, I think that's not a classical song, but you're the one who decides the things...
I just loved the piano, it gave the relaxing touch to the music, like Fro said before, this song seems to be a RPG music, I agree with him, it reminds me of Fly For Fun, Pokemon and Final Fantasy, games that I used to play, they all have musics like this, and all of them kick ass, and you song kick some asses too!!
I just think that's a bit too repetitive, you could cutted the lenght, because the music seems to be a loop...
Anyways, the music was great, I just wanna say that i liked your job, i think you should keep it up, because I listened an awesome work here... Congratulations, man!!

Gees, I really appreciate the positive feedback. Thanks. And those games it reminds you of really makes me proud I could produce such an effect. I am working on the repetiveness and length of the song. Thanks for the praise! And thanks for the review, too!
Good song
Much like Fro I got reminded of some RPG "town music", but not the starting tow (music there seems to be more sad, as the hero has to leave, heh), but some place you travel to later, when the first bosses have been beaten and the hero then comes into a bigger town where people are more cheerful in general.
However, towards the end the song gets a bit repetitive, so maybe you should try to bring some more variations into the song. Just like you did at 2:06, where you bring in some deeper sounding melodies.

It's got a nice and simple introduction. I felt the melody line could have been a little more prominent than it was in the first minute or so, and definitely gets drowned by the synths that come in at 0:55 and the more ambient one a few seconds later. The drums are nicely done; they're loud enough to be prominent without cutting through the synths.
When the new synths/instrument sounds take over the main melody from the piano sound the track got a lot more listenable-to, simply because there was more of a focus than just all the chords and melody at once. The transition onto the pads was a little abrupt, but works well once it settles in. The pan-flute-type thing at 3:05 and the glock (maybe?) at 3:12 were nice touches, I almost wish they'd come in a little earlier just to help add to the variety a little more than they did.
I think cutting a minute off wherever you did definitely helped, as this track only JUST started to get repetitive in places, but not much further than that. So definitely was a good idea to cut that minute out. For something made solely out of the FL instruments, this is nicely done. A lot better than a lot of the creations FL tends to have hurled onto newgrounds, anyway. It's a nice quirky piece, and works well for it.

Hmmm. I like your review because there is a lot of advice in it that I could use. I will definetly make this better using what you, and others, have suggested. Thanks a lot. Oh, the glock you mentioned at 3:12 is actually still the pan flute but I added a quieter lower note to it and a traingle sound (I forgot what it was called XD).
