[Elevator Music? Idk.]

Friggin' awesome?

This is friggin' awesome. Love the percussion intro and the offbeat piano part, especially the counterpoint at 0:51. You should change the title. :)

SkatingIsGenetic responds:

Lol, wow, I'm glad you liked it.

Haha, I just might. :D

[Fantranstic (E-S Style Mi]

Cool

I really enjoyed this track. My favorite moment is the build up at 1:13 where you take out everything except the piano and the synth- I like the sparse texture there, also the beginning. Haven't heard the original.

thx for the comment again, Benjamin

[(MSCI) Ending Credits]

Rockin.

Perfect length and satisfying ending, though the last chord could last longer, I think. Downloaded.

Step responds:

Alright, I'll fix that ^^. Guh, the only problems this song has are the small nitpicks :P. Oh well, thanks for the review!

[Saber Cruster]

Awesome!

Simply awesome... I love the sound of the single piano line above it all.

thx for the comment. :)

[Project Pianoi - Track 4]

Track 4 = 4 out of 5?

The riffs are pretty cool. :) Here are a few of my favorite things: the section starting at 0:34 is driving. I love the low piano repeating piano notes there. I like the fugue-like texture around 1:00 and I really, really love the pizzicato strings at 1:12. The fast sixteenth notes around 1:43 are a neat texture and it loops well.

Jnr1114 responds:

Wow, thanks! You actually listen to the whole thing! :D
I am surprised my score n this is 2.50. I spent a lot of time on this one, lol. Oh well. . .
I'll let you know when track 5 is out.

[-Orr-Nocturne in C# Minor]

Great work

Very beautiful, it feels like you paid such close attention to your opening melody and it really pays off. Chopin himself would be pleased to have written such a sensitive opening! I wonder about the middle section, which for some reason doesn't quite satisfy me. The repeating chords are very effective as is the briefly stated melody that comes right before them but I can't help suspecting the whole development is a little short on material. It feels like you were in a hurry, by the third minute, to get back to the opening melody albeit with some very nice variation. There is a truly gorgeous moment at 3:20 - I love the way you played the part with octaves in the right hand during this part; the slight pause before you play each note as if in hesitation which seems to really work here. Wonderful work overall despite my criticism of the middle section.

[Space Reggae (1st Rendition)]

Brilliant

This is such a cool track. The title is perfect for this music. I like the contrast when, halfway through, you feature the bass, and the busy notes at 3:05 are for some reason just really unique and satisfying. Just really amazing work, 10/10 and downloaded.

[A Christmas Pulse]

Buon Natale

Haha. Something about techno meets Christmas just gives me shivers down my back. Good shivers. :)

Curiously this track does actually evoke a kind of cold atmosphere. Certain sounds reminded me of winter; the intermittent windchimes, the ambient synth sounds, the wind-like sound entering in the last ten seconds of the first movement. Interesting and well-made. Merry Christmas!

[*(\Devn/)* Battle Z]

Cool groove.

I liked the huge variety of sounds and instruments. Cool groove.

Devn responds:

why an 8 then? lol

[°°Violet Flower Headbands°°]

Beautiful.

This is beautiful. I thought that before I read your sweet dedication. The chord progression manages to be both sad and encouraging at the same time. Very simple and the complex percussion helps make this quite effective. The last minute rhythmic variation is perfect and the ending glorious. Downloaded.
