Reviews for "_-={Dark Skies}=-_"

Very Rage typical

You seem to have mastered the upbeat war themed style of composing. Very similar to your other works, of course you haven't exhausted this style, there is still much to be learned. Great piece!
There are some cord progressions that didnt seem to resolve, but fits just fine. The choir entrance was shaky to me, but still a high scoring song.
Is this a loop or is the ending just screwed up?

MaestroRage responds:

Yes there is still much I can do in this style. To be honest I havn't done any kind of battle theme in this category and I really should. They're useful, entertaining, and brilliant practice.

This is indeed a loop, as it was designed to be a final battle track at some point. The track was decided to be taken out however, so I plastered it up here for everybody else to use :D!

I kinda like the choir. The choir program I use does however tend to lag behind the other instruments as it's attack is significantly longer then the normal orchestra. I didn't quite know how to adjust that when producing this track.

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

Simply Awesome

Im developing an expansion to a semi-popular game and I was cruising for music when I came upon your work... I only needed one song..
After listening to your work, I plan on using 4 and am trying to come up with a use for a few more of my favorites... They're truly epic. I don't know if I've ever heard epics like this before (maybe I've never looked...) but this is exactly what I was looking for.

Have you ever thought of doing something custom?

Your music made me become a member just so I could communicate with you. *bows* Expect a pm from me soon.

MaestroRage responds:

Hello redchigh! Replied to your pm :D!

I do custom work often, there are only 2 conditions I have which you are aware of. I look forward to working with you.

I'm grateful you signed up just to talk to me, i'm also glad these pieces are able to entertain you! Thank you for the review!

BN out

MaestroRage responds:

I'll do my best BN! Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it!

A gift

Your song is a gift to all aspiring music makers. This very song should be on the top ten. I must agree with killer racer rage of champs is a very exceptional song. Make more please.

Ps.were do u get the ideas for this?
Also what equipment do u need to make this?

MaestroRage responds:

I'll make as many as I can :D!

As for my ideas, this one was formed while listening to a lot of old school 2d RPG battle tracks. You know the kind you'd find in games like Lunar Silver Star Story complete, Chrono Trigger etc.

As for equipment, this was made with a variety of programs, you will need a host program like Fruity Studio's, and the sounds that you're hearing are from sample libraries or VST's, which are large collections or recorded notes so you can tell any instrument to play any note thats possible.

Lets see, the ones I used for this one in partciular are

East West Symphonic Orchestra Gold (for the brass, strings, bells)
Maestro's Rock Kit (soundfont you can download off sf2midi.com
East West Symphonic Choirs

Hope that answered your question, don't hesitate to ask if any more come your way!

yo Mastro nice song

i still think rage of the champs is best but this is like a war theme.nice and btw ill let u know when i get ur song imformation that was stolen alright?

MaestroRage responds:

awesome, thanks Killer! If not, no worries about it, i'm not really that angry or anything, I was just curious.

Rage of the Champions is a track entirely different in means, and both songs win and lose in different points. Though i'll agree Rage of the Champions has more power behind it :D!

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