A Progression of the Soul

Well lets start with this Mr.Bosa... That was movie soundtrack material. That is precisely the kind of music you hope to here in soundtracks which seek to draw you in. Your story proved this, the music alone is not good enough, in order for it to truly work it's magic you have to imagine along with it.

Mastering is fairly clean and the overall track, a resounding success to your portfolio. The guitars being picked especially near the end make it scream of composition skill.

I can't praise you enough. My only disspointment with this song, was I had been expecting vocals, and it would have fit well. But why mess with a good thing?

Take Care Bosa,

MMD

Bosa responds:

"...the music alone is not good enough, in order for it to truly work it's magic you have to imagine along with it."

Very well said, and I agree with you 100%. Having the ability to add author comments to your music is a wonderful thing on this website, as it only helps to ignite the true imagination of the music you produce.

Time and patience always seem to pay off, and this song is no exception. There is always room for me to improve however, and I am constantly seeking advice and help from other talented composers and musicians such as yourself. I hope to hear more from you, as I truly enjoy your music and your helpful insight.

Thanks a bunch!

Solid easy listening

Really enjoyed this tune. The effects all fit well. The yelling (children?) was a nice touch. I can imagine using this on any number of projects, most fittingly a flash game. Hope it gets noticed.

5/5 (Counter those zero bombers)

Intoxicating

Love the progression, a quality recording to boot. I imagine I should take a look at some of your other work.

My only complaint would be the vocals can be a little flat and quiet. Boost that shit! Great work.

5/5

HardcoreClimax responds:

It's funny you mention the vocals. We had a really hard time figuring out the mixing. We didn't want them too loud or too quiet. We even wondered a little bit about the screaming.

Thanks for the feedback!

Touching

Hello there,

Unfortunately it seems voice acting doesn't get many reviews these days. Anywho, the story is good, and your voice tells it well. I wonder, does this have any real world influence? You should carry on the story, perhaps from the Mutes POV. Thanks for using my music mate.

HardyMonster responds:

Thanks dude!

Your music helped for the prologue so much!

The story is natural and surreal, so some parts of the book will sound strange...

Chapter one coming out in the next few weeks!

Haha

You're right, it does make you Laugh.

I know the sources of many of these samples... great videos. Well put together... I was just browsing the new stuff and you stood out.

If indeed you put this together all yourself. That's great stuff. Enjoy your five sir.

FoxDye responds:

Thanks bunches. The piano loop, drum loop and even the vocals (which I recorded from all kinds of videos off of youtube, chopped up and inserted) were all indeed written by me. Musically it's not that wonderful, but I think it serves its purpose.

Thanks again.

Woah...

Hubbada Hubbada,

Why are you a fan of me?... I should be your fan. Sir, you asked for my review... but I don't have any critism that wouldn't ring hollow in this colossus of professionalism. I envy your voice and I stand impressed by your music. Amazing use of the piano... you did my favourite instrument justice. Nevermind the genius lyrics.

The most memorable part is when the EQ on the vocals changes and it suddenly has a powerful presence... then the strings come in and it's perfect from there.

Bravo... Bravo... I'll be watching you sir... watching very very closely.

Sincerely,
Your new Fan.

You don't know how awesome it is to hear that coming from you! Wow! Thanks a ton for the review, man. Anyway, I can't wait to hear your next submission.

My Favourite Heavy Metal Headliner

Hey Bad Man... I never know what to think of your music.

I'm a classical man... filled to the brim with poetry and soft strings... I never had room to understand heavy metal. But I know talent when I hear it. Your singing is much improving with every song. And damn that guitar is so sexy I just love it to pieces. Thats why I always want it in my music. Speaking of which... I have a solo spot for you on my next song... and only you will do.

Damn I'm listening to those guitar licks and shit now and... damn.... just damn.

Your the Newgrounds heavy metal god for sure bud.

Take care and hit me back sometime.

Damn...

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Thanks, my friend. Heavy metal is no different. But before I get into it... A guy named "Angelsdontkill" did the guitaring here. He will be pleased as hell to see that you adore him too. And I think more that its...metal..slowly getting a hold of you. Metal isn't all that far from classical, you know. haha.

So, as far as poetry goes..I really wrote this song based on...well. Our society doesn't have much dignity left in it, as a whole. And then flipped it to really represent an anger based song. Blaming the Gods for their sins...causing this whole ridiculous scenario. As in, if we were created in Gods image, why in the hell are we so fucked up. haha. Or something like that.

I am totally ready to do that solo for you, and again thank you for the opportunity. I hope I won't let you down. If you don't catch me on messenger...you can email me the song, or the part you want solo'd over...and I'll email back. But hopefully I'll catch you online.
Thank you for the review. Means a lot to me, dude.\m/

Here are the lyrics if anyone is interested

The Sins Of Gods

I look up
Every Night
Pray my soul
Has done it right

I've seen
So many things
I can feel
what evil brings

The darker nights
The faster days
a life lived through
Eternal haze

Brought down
To my knees
Can't appease
The Sins Of Gods

We are broken
Eternal Suffering
No deliverance
No Free offerings
Take the road where
fire burns red
Then you live it
And are not dead
(X2)

I say
To the sins
That in the end
No one wins

Now light turns
Into Dark
Becoming home of
The sins of Gods

Stand in place to accept your fate
No mercy givin on this day
The crashing of the thunder stops
Now appease the sins of Gods

You are my,
I am your,
we are all
Everyones Everything has come and gone
So deliver us
Deliver you
The day breeds a lot of spawned intentions of Darkness.

You're Sorry
You're Hungry
For my tears and
Beg for forgiveness
But found none
cause I am gone
Its your fault

You're sorry
You're hungry
For my tears and
Beg for forgiveness
But found none
Its your fault,
The sins of Gods.

A hidden brilliance

Hello sir,

You asked for a review, you got a review.

First of all, the whole thing is almost perfectly composed and probubly looks just as good on sheet music as it sounds. You can really do wonders with those fingers sir. However...

It is very clear that you have indeed taken Lessons my friend... and although not a bad thing, it's almost a hinderance in style. Let me explain...

Every note seems perfectly timed... right where it should be... it lacks that human touch. But most of all... it lacks sustain. Do you have a sustain pedal? It would probubly single handedly eliminate the choppy outline of this masterpiece all on it's own. If used right...

It's a marvolous piece of piano and you deserve great credit for it. But it's time to break away from all you've learned and feel the music and let it weave fluently rather than presicely.

I await you next pieces... and since Zero voters suck you get 5/5.

Good luck and good work.

Sincerely,
MMD

Dudidum responds:

:D
Yea I should really start to use that damn sustain pedal... I'm not really used to use it ;).
I've once thrown everything overboard since I stopped taking lessons but It's true that I'm playing with a lot of precision. I just love to play exactly on and between the notes ;).
To get a really fluent piece I need to work a lot on my way of playing and/or I need more instruments :).

Thanks for the review and I'm also waiting for your new masterpieces ;).

A Solom Tune and Great Piano Work

Well lets see buddy. This is certainly a great piece, so beautiful and well rendered.

The piano work really started well and stayed with a constant flow of beauty and artistry. Remarkable.

It could just be my imagination but I think those strings don't do this piece justice. The woodwind you used was a nice touch... alittle shrill... but good none the less. And the trumpet surprised me but was a nice addition as well.

Overall, a great piece of work that shows a growing level of talent within you.

Take care mate.

5/5
10/10

SolusLunes responds:

After reading your review, yes, the strings DO bother me some.

I'll fix that and edit in teh version 2.0.

Personally, I think the pan flute was one of the most awesome things ever.

Well, except for the trumpet.

Hells yeah.

:D

Brilliance in a raw diamond that needs a polis

first of all... your wonderfully talent. I haven't heard the song you've remixed but I sure can appreciate the beauty of this classical composure.

Well played, well sculpted... the quality of the track could be increased (I'm not sure what aparatus your using to record), but besides that I really hope to hear more from you in the near future.

I'm going to download the original of this song because it sounds great.

Well done... a 5 from me.

for the record your the first review I've written since I left a year ago. I'm back now and very much liking what I hear.

Sincerely,
MMD

i2abbitz responds:

I believe the original track is by PPK - Resurrection.

I was in a hurry to submit because I haven't posted in months besides that techno one..
I didn't do much mastering. I could've done a lot more with the instruments. heh.

I am very grateful that I would be your first review since you've been back. Great to have you here. Will be checkin up on you.

The touch of my fingers to the ivory. Now that's worth fighting for.
