Reviews for "Best Song Ever Made"

The best dubstep song I ever heard!
What a magnificent peace of dubstep art!
You did a very good job to make this feel like a dubstep with the mix of your instruments!
I can't describe how good this dubstep song is!
This is truly the best song ever made!

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Haha, thanks! Apologies for the late reply ^___^

Phyrnna called it: totes magotes moar cowbell. The combination of sitar and ukulele is dreamy. Oh, and those loon calls are a really nice ambient touch. 67 1/2 stars out of 5. All my base. Eat at Joe's.

Spoiler alert: Darth Vader is Luke's father.

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

I know right!? She always comes with the best advices :3
The ambient dubstep was a very interesting section to make, one could say it was quite experimental, actually. The sitar is actually an organ with some special effects, if I remember correctly, and the ukulele is actually a heavily modified cowbell (but there should have been more of it). Hmm, I should try out Joe's place, it sounds cool.

OMG how dare you spoil Trek Wars after all these years! I still had to watch that movie, and now it's ruined D: *goes off to cry in a corner*

hi lucid :D what you have done is very beautifull i really like this even if it not so long i enjoy listen it you are a really good musician
good joob :D

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Hahha, such a positively loaded review :D
You really seem to like the sound of my older stuff better (as this was made in like half an hour on my synth). I guess that the sounds are softer this way :3
Thank you!

NOTICED FRONT-PAGE; HAD TO REVIEW! :D I like the tranquil atmosphere at the beginning, although given the date of upload and genre, I was expecting some sort of intense drop at some point. Still, I like the progression and mood. It's very bright and quirky, as if one is suddenly arriving at a quaint Irish village after a long night of trudging through the snow (although maybe I'm getting the "Irish" part only because "potato" is tagged). ;) If I had to complain about anything, it would probably be the quality of the stringed instruments around 1:10. You can tell that they're fake because the vibrato is on a fixed sine-wave pitch ratio. I'm not sure how to "humanize" things in Cubase, but I suggest you look into that. Otherwise, nice work and congrats on the front-page! ;D

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

LOL! How did I not even notice the frontpage at all? Hahha XD

And I like how you actually reviewed this as if it was some serious piece. This song goes back two years; I made it on my synth in about 30 minutes. It was as a challenge for myself, but I really failed. The thing is, I came up with the chords in about 15 minutes. After that, I improvised every intrument once, based on the chords. There are five intruments, as many as my synth can record at a single track. That's why the audio quality is like it is, and why there are some weird mistakes, and everything is off tempo and messy XD
This was too bad to upload as it is, but I have been waiting a year to upload it as an April Fools joke! Finally the time came, and it seems it even managed to get front paged! Somebody has a good sense of humor :D

So yeah. This was NOT made in Cubase, nor is it a recent work :3
But thanks for the review anyway, I appreciate it ;)

P.S. Potatoes rule!

I was hoping for an Oliver Age 24 reference, got me good there. :o

The rhythm sounds so calming and I love the buildup. I would remove the static sound though, just kind of seems to ruin it for me in my opinion. Otherwise, fabulous piece.

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

That would have been a really good idea! Well, there are more years to come :p
I'm surprised that a few people actually seem to like this song o.O
Let's just say that the methods with which I composed and recorded this song weren't exactly... Conventional...

Thanks :3
