[Zapher-DigItal Kumbia]

Very nice

I'm not usually into Latin music but this one caught my attention. I really liked the melody to this song. I could definitely see a dancer shaking to this! The maracas (I think that's what they were) were great in the background. I did find it to be rather long since there wasn't much change to it. Except for that change of pace near the end, but it went back to the same beat as before. It did have a decent ending though. This was a very nice song, keep it up!

[People Die - Knights of 21 Oak]

Your gifted

The intensity of this song blew my mind. At first when I listened to the intro I thought I was in for a nice mellow song. Then that extreme guitar riff took me for a ride! The vocals were great, he had the same anger and intensity as the music and it fit perfectly. I did feel like the vocals could have been added a little earlier then they were. By the way, that guitar solo in there was excellent! I really enjoyed listening to this song, I can't wait to hear more from this band. Keep me posted!

[The Magician - Purple]

Excellent

I loved this song. There were so many different beats to it that kept me entertained. I felt the melody was very enticing and the drums held it all together. I loved the beginning and how it builds up to the other beats. The speed of this song was insane! Very fast throughout the whole thing. Extremely good job on this song. It was over three minutes and I wasn't bored listening to it at all. Keep it up.

[Grand Chase]

Cool beat

This was a pretty good song. The beat was awesome, it was catchy and unique. That chiming in the background from time to time was a really good touch to the track. It wasn't very long. It was just one beat for forty seconds, despite how good the beat was, I thought you could have added a bit more music. Other then that a nice song, keep it up!

[+BsK+ Or die trying!!]

Too short

I thought the music was really good while it lasted, but it was too short for me to really enjoy it. The melody was pretty good, I think it would fit well with some kind of epic stare contest or something like that. I agree with you about the percussions, it fit well with this song. I just wish it was longer. Nice job on this anyway.

Good song

I really enjoyed this. From beginning to end it was an upbeat song. The melody was really good. I don't really know what that sound in throughout the song was called, but whatever it was it fit perfectly with this song. I think I kind of agree with you when you think of a battle going on, I was kind of thinking of that too. Over all this was a very nice song, keep it up!

Thanks. I see it as a prelude for the msot part, to a battle, Like What you see When the hero is charging towards the boss. Taking down pointless enemies as if they were bugs. Eiuther way Thanks for the review!

[Flaming Airways]

Awesome

This song was bad ass! I loved the fact that there was a lot of different kinds of melodies in this song, yet they fit together so well. I was bobbing my head throughout this whole song, that's how catchy it was! I have to nag about the ending again. Instead of it looping it would be better to have some kind of ending to it. About suggesting a genre, I really have know idea. It's pretty unique. I think it fits in techno more than anything else, but that's just my opinion. Anyways great job on this song!

S3C responds:

haha, i'm glad you like it. They're really is no ending, its not supposed to loop either, it just kinda cuts off. its mainly a demo.

thanks for the suggestion, it probably is techno. Anyways, thanks for the helpful review!

[Lux Lucis]

Melodic

I really liked this flash. It was soothing, yet creepy at the same time. This piece had some great moments with the piano, but some parts of the song had little gaps between music. Just adding a little music in between those gaps would have been a good idea. Even though the piano was really good, some other kind of instrument that would have complimented it would have made this even better. I violin comes to mind. Nice job on this song, keep it up.

S3C responds:

I might try adding more instruments.

I don't really play piano at all and it was completely improvised, so that probably explains the little gaps in between the different sections. but yeah it may work better if had a smoother flow and I didnt switch keys so much.

thanks for the review, pleased to hear you like this one.

[Water Pagoda]

Great rythm

I really enjoyed this track. It was pretty relaxing listening to it. The rhythm of the song was awesome. I think this would fit perfectly with some kind of sad moment in a movie. I was a little disappointed in the ending because I don't think it actually ended. It felt like it got cut off in the end and I don't think that served this great track justice. Other then that this was a great song, nice job!

S3C responds:

I'm really glad you enjoyed it.

There really is no ending, it just loops instead. I guess I could make a version where it does end, i like the idea.

Thanks for another review Hemlok!
