[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!

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!

kaptainkewl responds:

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!

[_The Escape_]

Nice

Great track you've made here! The beginning was great, very soothing. I thought that the whole song was going to be like that but then the curve ball hit with that awesome techno beat. What I really loved about this flash was how many beats this song had. It was mostly techno, but so many other genres were put into this. Over all I thought this song was very clever, you did a great job.

I tried to combine some genres a bit ;) Thanks!

[i dont mow]

Not bad

This track has some unique sounds to it. That bouncing noise was pretty catchy! I thought the beginning of this song was the weakest part of this song, but it definitely ended strongly. Although I did like the melody of this song, it got pretty bland after awhile. It would have been great if you added another kind of noise to this. Other then that a nice job!

sistem69 responds:

THANKS well it seems that people like my musics so ill try harder.

[Azure Eyes]

Cool

I liked this song. I suppose it could be used in porn, it could also be used in other things as well. A game like Bejeweled comes to mind. Anyway the song was great. The melody was very nice and relaxing. I didn't think the song changed much, so I didn't see why it was as long as it is. The ending was good. I like how it echoed. Over all a nice job.

S3C responds:

Bejewled eh? Nice! thanks for the review.

[FFX2 - Eternity Extended]

Soothing

This was pretty good track. I can certainly see this being in a Final Fantasy game. Although I don't remember hearing this in FFX2. Kind of sad too, it's the only Final Fantasy game I've ever completed. I felt very relaxed when listening to this. I did feel like it got a bit repetitive, but that's just my humble opinion. Over all this was a nice soothing song, nice work.

S3C responds:

It's the song played on the intro screen I believe :P

I do agree a bit with your opinion on it being repetive but it actually has more changes than the real version hehe! Thanks for the review.
