[-ThumpGrinder-]

Great song.

I was hooked from the very start, and the chorus didn't disappoint. What DID disappoint was the ending. It didn't have a conclusion, you just let it fade.. without the fading, that is. Not good, try to improve on that and it would sound a lot better.

Awesome song, nonetheless.

[bluesy drum n bass]

Not bad, but shallow.

The intro and the pause in between are what bother me the most. You shouldn't pause the drums inbetween, just let it go with the flow. Also, I'm not sure you've picked the right instrument to add percussion. It doesn't really go well with the song.

Still, I enjoyed listening to it, and it has a very steady pace.

[A Walk Down The Trail]

Bittersweet nostalgia.

This is a song with a true feeling and meaning to it. It sounds very calming and soothing, and I don't think you should ever redo it. It's very nice the way it is now, and it made me smile a bit. As if there were dark times, but today the sun will rise and shine like never before.

Thumbs up, masterfully composed.

[short pop rock]

It's not bad.

It sounds rather nice, though very short. You should've added another pattern or two, for variation. Shame you didn't let it continue on til the end, else it would've been a fairly nice loop.

thanks the thing i didnt do was to cut out the extra space
i would do it if it wasnt for the damn laziness . . . i hate that thing

anyway thanks for the review

[My progress in FL]

Gee..

I don't even know how to say anything constructive.

Judging from your responses to previous review, you're to lazy to put effort into your songs, or your technique. You say you're doing it without hints, or tutorials. I ask you why? I'm new to the program aswell and I've learned a lot by watching YouTube videos, and experimenting, along with the advice of those more experienced than me.

The song itself is simply boring. It's like 15 notes total? WAY to short. It lacks any proper effects/variation. This isn't even about what it lacks anymore, but what it doesn't. Even then, it's hard to tell.

[Golden Sun - Main Theme]

EPIC. WIN.

WOW.

You've brought back soooo many memories! I haven't heard this song in at least five years. Orchestrated it sounds way better! I want to thank you, for your interpretation of one of my all-time favorite games. Your *well* succesful interpretation.

Perhaps a little exagerated, but that's cause I always get warm feelings when I think of Golden Sun.

9/10
5/5

(Note: You did not get a 10, simply because it's not the original. It's a remix, and remixes never get 10's from me. You definitely deserve the 9 though!)

[You suck.]

Jeanniewood had it spot on.

"Yeah... uh... no. That really just wasn't good at all. Not meaning to zero bomb without cause, so here's the cause: the background music was basic at best, (one could make this on an electric piano at the music store with little to no practice or idea what they're trying for) the vocals sounded like they should have been coming from a mentally insufficiant junior-high drop out, the lyrics were poor and frankly- just plain stupid. Try for a little more maturity in your work- seriously. Your viewing audiance doesn't need to be treated like they're idiots; they can get a point without you spelling it out in such a literal negative way. The fact that the only positive reviews on this song were in thinking it was a joke or a comparison to South Park is not a positive thing for you, despite the high grades granted in response.
Suffice to say, this is not a 'song'. Songs have emotional depth and a mature attempt that lasted more than half an hour. This is just you trying to push a piece through the woodwork as fast as possible without any attempt to realism or art."

Though I'm giving you a 4. 0's go out to the worst spam submissions, though this wasn't that much better. How on earth did you ever get in the Top30? You're insulting everybody who listens to your song. What for?!

El-Sammo responds:

Sigh I don't believe I'm replying to any of these but here goes.

Firstly, That is the first time i played keyboard.
Secondly, This song is a JOKE, I repeat, JOKE. If you think I'm trying to make a serious point, then you are barking up the wrong tree.
Thirdly, anyone who sits down and thinks about this things implications on anything has too much time on their hands.

Stop taking yourself so seriously,
Love me.

[Crime of Your Life VI]

Nope.

No, I'm not.

I don't think it's necesary to point out what needs improving? It's a spam submission, 'nuff said.

MadCow responds:

HOW DARE YOU INSULT MY ART YOU COCKSUCKING MOTHERFUCKING SHITEATING FAGGOT. THIS IS PURE AVANT GARDE MUSIQUE CONCRETE, BUT AN UNCULTURED SWINE SUCH AS YOURSELF WOULD NEVER RECOGNIZE OR APPRECIATE IT.

[The Axe Swinging Death]

Good job man!

I'm not to much into death metal, but I can recognize a good song from a mile away.

What really stands out from the rest of the NG submissions is the proffesionality. It's very well put together, the guitar is simply epic, and the drums sound clear.

Though slightly repetitive in my ears. You should write a guitar solo into this, being a bit higher pitched. Also write down your lyrics in your comments, cause it's hard to understand what you're singing. ;p

Creeping-Dan responds:

Cheers. Im no soloist, funnily enough ive written one, but cannot play it for the life of me.

Thankyou very much!

[(FMC) -=Sudden Death=-]

Respect, yo.

Awesome track!

I really liked the way you start out rockin', and then only add more to it. It's fast paced, lots of variation and perfect to dance to, and no signs of slippery mistakes. Though some parts sound awefully stereotype to the genre, if you know what I mean. Didn't like the sudden ending in this though. I don't know, you should've let it genuinely lower the pace, and then put a stop to it.

Can't really say anymore, very nice track.
