Reviews for "_-={The World's Truth}=-_"

that was a really bueatiful

i think this is perfect for a movie that has a part where the main charater comes out of something terrible and something bueatiful happens 4 thumbs up man

MaestroRage responds:

It is entirely possible, though in most of my moves any hero that walks out of something terrible is rarely the same :(

Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it!

Nicely Done Maestro!

Great to see you back! You have improved a lot since you posted on MaestroSorrow! Do you have new sounds? It's either you have new sounds or know how to use your current ones better (or both).

Beautiful mood set in the piece, but watch out for clashing notes. There were some sour notes at the beginning, but they weren't a very large flaw. Mainly when the organ came in. When dealing with multiple voices like that, the easiest option for a note you want to hold is to choose a note from the current interval chord. At any rate, the piece had a lot of imagination behind it, which really shows your potential.

I liked the choir sounds you have, what are you using?

5/5

MaestroRage responds:

Yeah, I have new sounds, but i've decided to use all the sounds I have at my disposal, sometimes, you gotta use the old stuff, cuz it beats the newer things. I'm sure you're Casio 310 can relate ;).

I realize and understand how to hold a note, but with that many voices, I got too lazy to go into each channel and alter accordingly. Maybe the song was posted before it was really done, but I wanted to put it up anyways. I kind of liked the raw qualities it had of being unrefined.

As for the choirs, they are PlugSound CD 6, "OOh" and "Aah", Papalmedia, and a good deal of reverb!

Thanks for the review David, greatly appreciate it ^^.

Wond'rous~

Brilliantly pulled together, I must say. The blending of the intruments must've taken hours in itself. Reminds me a little of the music in Miazaki's films (a good thing). The organ and bells I thought were especially well done.

Accolades and a big 5 to thee.

MaestroRage responds:

This was surprisingly one of the songs that didn't take that long actually. Then again I had some crazy streaks of creativity when I was sitting down to this, so perhaps I was working in overdrive.

I have seen Miazaki's film's, I really adore the musical elements and stories to them.

Thank you for the review, i'm glad you enjoyed the piece ^^.

Ok...

While its still a good piece (Don't get me wrong) if listened to a few of your other pieces, and i must say, there are a lot of notable similarities.

I WILL STRESS INSTRUMENTATION:
You seem to use a lot of strings as back up and flute as main. I don't particularly have a love assosiaction with the flute. How about if you back off on the flute, and have woodwinds accompany the strings?

Also, you might want to examine your palette once again. remember you have woodwinds, brass, percussion, and strings. You have still yet to use English Horn, French Horn, Trombone, TRumpet, Piano, and a low cello soli kinda thing.

Over all its a good piece. It makes it on to my ipod.

MaestroRage responds:

Isn't the flute a woodwind?

Actually there is french horns being used here, they are the bass end of the song, and low cello's are playing the string chords, though not solo, they are there.

My two favourite instruments are strings and bells (which choirs coming in very close third), so that would explain why I have them pransing around so much :D.

As for my palette, I don't really like to stick to traditional instruments, though I have been gearing towards them more frequently lately, I like to mix it up with instruments not commonly used. Mandorin, Dulcimer, and the whistle in this song's case.

Thank you for the review, again your bring up valid points, i'm glad you found the song enjoyable ^^.

hmmm

im going to disagree wif ice :p
i tink it'll be great if u have characters of a thingo (movie, scene, w/e), either walking across a battlement (spell) or in old asian places, arches n bridges in a royal palace, where the princess/royalty contemplates something.....in winter, snow.........then their thoughts come thru the screen....yea........ XD
speaking of which.......i'll make another song as soon as im back from the canadian music tour im doing wif the school bands...........atm, gonna chill....pun not intended

all that crap just meant great job :p again

cheerios for now.........
oh yea, how bout experimenting wif some endings? im getting used to ur endings now :p

MaestroRage responds:

hey all ideas are welcome here, whether they agree with somebodies idea or not :D! I'm just glad you came out to share, thanks LoneInstrumentalist! Long time no see my good sir!

Please let me know when new stuff is up :D!

As for your own imagery, I see you have spent more time on the landscape and surrounding scenery then the actual character. Not often I read this, and I find it quite welcoming.

And the endings for these are all predictable, because I wasn't that good at em at this point. Still arn't in my opinion, but one day at a time right!?

Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it! Sorry for the late response!
