Reviews for "A New King"

Umm

Okay so I guess you only make jazz and classical music. Sounds like a battle raging on rather than a new king being crowned in a ceremony. Looks like your music doesn't get many reviews. It should get more. Oh okay now comes the happy part. I can see a new king being crowned. Sounds like it he would be a good king too. Those are some impressive sounds. You know how to use your music program well. My program lacks any good classical sounds and take forever to make. I think your song has a lot of emotion. Sad, suspense, happy, epic, etc. So 5/5 voting by me and 10/10 review. Great composition and you gotta tell me how you made these sounds with your music program. I hate messing around with all these dials! Bye for now.

Bosa responds:

Yes, jazz and classical is my most pro style.

With the first part of the track, I was hoping to give the listener an idea of a great hero fighting against a colosus of some sort, or some kind of battle. Then, when the fast string marcs come in, he's on horseback, raging toward his enemy. At the last second, an rrow pierces his horse, and his blade swings towards his enemy. He lives, and he is crowned king since he is a great hero and heir to the throne. Son of the current dead king.

About people not reviewing.. I can answer that. People, in this day of age, are generally lazy. There's not much more to it.

So...Utterly...Confused...But good job!!!

I have to admit that I was a little confused at first, but maybe you were trying to show irony...Or something...The music didn't exactly reflect upon a grand, new, wonderful kind in my mind at first. Err...It felt more like one tyrant was just killed off, the people rejoiced for but a moment, only to find that someone even worse was coming to the throne. It sounded REALLY hectic, as if everyone was running around frantically like a thousand tiny ants about to be squished...Or enslaved. Either works.

But then it suddenly changed as if out of NOWHERE!...BAAM! And all of the sudden, the miserable little scene jumped far into the future (or perhaps the past) to a far, far away time of peace...joy...and prosperity...A NEW KING IS BEING THRONED!!! The key signature, the choir, the strings, and all of the instrumentation in general, all seemed to fit the tearful, joyous ceremony. The king would be a good one. Oh, yes, he was one heck of a guy! And as the crown was set upon his balding head, everyone smiled as a new age of peace lay on the horizon!...And then it looped, jumping right back to the horrible reality which was the past. (Or is it the terrible future which is doomed to come and forever torment them?) Either way, it's pretty messed up.

Musically, it was very well done. Great orchestration, loved the strings, and the mood was compelling! A lot of great sample work in there, and some nice compositional techniques seemed to be employed. Oh, and I love it, right before the major part, when the strings go crazy and "spiral" downward. The transition kind of scared me. In fact, the song completely confused and burned out my poor little noggin. But nonetheless, it was nicely executed, however much it made sense.

Wonderful job on this, you seem to have a knack for provoking really weird feelings in the listener. (As was such with "The Picture Player...) Anywho, keep it up! 10/10

You've just got fived!

Bosa responds:

Hmm... Past, Present, Future. You've given me an inspiration for something. However, I'm not saying what it is yet.

p.s. A smart mind you do have, friend. Thanks for the review.

Fantastic imagery

This is one of the most pictorial things I've ever heard on Newgrounds. The imagery I get from this is fantastic, though it's more like what the second reviewer described than what you intended.

This piece has great variety and it would be a great one for someone to "put to film" - the images already come to your head.

Damn zero voters got this one too, I see... odd that they aren't such a huge problem on the flash portal, isn't it? You'd think someone would take notice and find out why...

Anyway, this gets a solid 10/10 from me, in all categories. It's simply a fantastic piece.

Bosa responds:

Death to the zero voters. DEATH I SAY!!!

Wow, outstanding. Simply Amazing.

It's got a great dark feel, awesome orchestra in the background. The end is a lot different from the beginning, which is awesome, goes well with it. Very epic sounding as well. This is a near perfect piece. Extremely well done.

Bosa responds:

Thanks, I'm sure that somebody will find a use for it.

Epic

dark at first which really captures the tyrant feeling, then bright and hopeful. you've got a lot of good pieces on NG. keep up the good work.

Bosa responds:

I shall!
