Reviews for "Star Chaser"

Sounds like a minimalist song... Is it?

Well, when I finished school, my last homework in music was to do a minimalist song. And it make think about a minimalist song. Well, this was really Epic. I would suicide myself if I gave this a zero... It just worts a ten on ten, five on five...

Read my responses to some of the comments below. You're right on track! Minimalism realized through a modernized-rock style.

You certainly hit the mark!

It has both fantastical, faraway-seeming and realistic. down to earth elements. I'd describe this particular track as an adventure, and a wonderfully crafted one at that! I enjoyed this quite a bit, and I'd love to hear more like it! Your "minimalistic" technique works very well. You, my friend, are what we call a "Master Composer."
10/10, sir. 10/10.
Not many hit that mark.

I appreciate your kind words, and I am humbled to hear myself called a "Master Composer" I am nothing of the sort yet! I'm still learning and growing fast as ever. I am truly glad you enjoyed this song a lot, I also feel that it is one of my best. This song was released in 2008, and since then I've created so much more. You should REALLY check out my website because I have huge variety of styles and genres I compose/produce! Thanks again for you review. Please check out my website for more music: matthewpablo.com

Epic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just pure epicness

Yes please!

The fact that I am going to listen to this for hours on end should speak for itself, but if it doesn't then I will just say that this is a masterpiece. Truly great! It did feel a tiny bit repetitive though that can certainly be overlooked. It sounded wonderful and the transition in speed was awesome.

deadlyfishes responds:

Funny you mention repetitiveness because this song was made with the intention of creating a minimalist composition. In a minimalist type of piece or song the entire work is based on short one or two measure phrases that repeat many times and keeps adding more layers. Try listening to anything by Steve Reich, and tell me THAT'S not repetitive. It really only interests serious composers who can understand and appreciate that technique in writing. For this song, I was trying to do a more rock/pop style mixed with strong minimalist influences. I'm glad you like it, this song seems to be the fan favorite these days! Check out my website for more music from me, you can even download 112 tracks of mine for free! matthewpablo.com Thanks again for the review, I really appreciate it! Let's make this #1 like my past tracks!

Intense and kickasstical

Goes from emotional extreme to emotional extreme, while staying strong, clear and passionate the whole time. Kickass guitar riffs and excellent pacing. Sounds dream-like and surreal while still lodging itself firmly in my mind like a swift steel boot to the face, only just as pleasant as that would be uncomfortable :P The drums/bass in the second half of it are excellently placed as well.

Favorited. Totally favorited.

I'm glad you noticed some key points to my song here. NG needs more thoughtful reviews like yours. You've basically proven to me that I've done everything right with this song. I always aim to achieve certain musical goals with each song and composition. It really is good hear that the song came out exactly the way I wanted it to! Anyways thanks for the review and if you want to hear more music from me check out the stuff on my audio portal and my official website: matthewpablo.com
