Oops
It appears that I have accidentally posted my review for this in your 'Brotherhood' piece. My regrets.
As for 'Brotherhood' itself, I like the ambient crickets. However, it makes me think more of telling stories of valor. Its relaxed tone connotes quiet reflection more than it does grand, exited acting. It's still good, though. :)
I'm glad I read both reviews before I responded, because I felt a little strange sitting there thinking "do the cello's really sound like brass?! Have i raped them so hard in this fashion O_O!?"
But it makes much more sense now.
You're right I could have beefed up the low end, the trouble with this one was the percussion. They literally dominated my low end and because I don't use these kind of drums often I was faced with many situations I wasn't prepared to handle. I'm glad you were honest enough to point these errors out, because I was wondering if I should spend more time in the future on mastering, or learn that on the side while creating.
I will definitely have to work on equalizing and the such.
As for the Brotherhood piece, I fully agree, there is a great nostalgic value to the piece, the first image that triggered it however was that of brotherhood, and so to give credit to the starting block I named it as such.
Thank you for both reviews, greatly appreciated. I'm glad you liked them.
Almost as epic as the title song
This song goes great when you're fighting the Stovefaces, and the Coneheads (I call them Klan knights... get it...?). Point is, they are intimidating to look at, and even more so to fight if you're first starting out, and this song makes it seem that way. They should just call it "Here comes some formidable mother f**kers". Either way, Excellent work!
It does give off a feeling of raw, power seeping through my computer... though I don't necessarily feel an "evil" or "dark" vibe off of this. This does seem fit for battle though.
I can sense a hero getting stronger or weaker at different times. I can sense the villain winning but as I said still no dark or malicious energies.
This is one of my favorites! Love this track
