[(CHS) Last Hope]

Haha :)

Ahhaaa now this rare. From the intro to the outro you really sit in on the essence of what a video game piece should sound like. It has a feel that needs no explaining at all and produces an image in ones mind very quickly. But it is not until the 01:21 mark that the song really picks up its pace and introduces you to what I like to call the "Kingdom Hearts" style of music. In that I mean the feel of it and this, like many KH songs, could go just about anywhere.

Good job :)

A true compliment. Thanks for that bro, sometimes words can inspire more that music can. Thanks again.

[[PXS] Just Tell Me {RMX}]

Well now..

Ah how rare, I've missed an artist worth mentioning. Let me run on through here...basic summary bit tired.

The introduction was quite something. The fade in threw me off at first, not something you hear alot nowadays but that moved straight into the 'skippy' voice which caught my ear and kept me listening. I know Cascada very well (not personally lol) and I will say that you did this piece a great justice. Many areas were added or improved upon to the point that I am going to download this one and attempt to figure out which one I like more, the original or this remix...I'm betting on the latter.

My only real complaint is it sounds a bit...shall I say soft. The voice is fine, clear, sharp, it sounds just fine. But much of the background feels a bit squishy x.x. Almost muffled, somewhat like what you'd hear if you were in another room hearing this with the vocalist in the same room as you and the instruments in another. Meh, it could just be me, it certainly wasn't a problem throughout the entire song but I noticed and intentional or not I gave my opinion.

9/10 for what truly sounds like a professional remix is quite good either way. Props to you.

Can't wait till I get FL Studio back >.> Its been too long.

Pixelsaur responds:

Thank you for the very lengthy and thorough review. On the soft thing, I think I lowered the master too much on this. It sort of made the finer details blend together, if you know what I mean. Thanks for your very informed point, appreciate it!

Boo hehe

Alright, I started at a 7 initially then 00:11 hit and not long after you get the (very tired so Imma just ignore the instrument names lol) string pluck with the...I want to say Bright Piano, bleh. Anywho, the pace almost forces you to sit down and listen further on into the song and the strings, though not the best in my opinion the...cello? viola? bleh don't ask I can't remember sht right now feels slightly low pitched at some points. As usual I have to point out that a nice choir, hold on 02:00 hits with a new part that actually really fills out this piece, anywho as for the choir I felt that a light choir is in order here, it would have really brough an already great emotional piece to a climax much higher then it reached.

Overall the presentation is well thought out, the timing nearly flawless and the soul crying out for everyone to listen. But you didn't get a 10/10 because it feels just a little empty to me. 00:42 or 01:02 might have both been good placing to introduce a light, airy choir, but meh...go back and fix it and I'll forgive you :).

Good piece, it really holds a persons attention for a slower piece and the lack of repetitive draws is really nice. Around 02:00 is an area that I felt hit upon the soul of this piece much more then anywhere else, but that is just opinion of course.

Fav'd, 9/10, 5/5

Thanks for the review =). haha the review is kinda keven bacon'd out because of the april first trick... Damn you NG LMFAO. Not every song can be epicly epic. Hehe some have to be sad and emo!!! This is our EMO SONG lol

[FFX - For Zanarkand]

Ah, completed...

Many of my old pieces are in the Video Game category and sure, just like anybody else I don't like seeing them lose in position...but I simply couldn't help but vote 5 on this one.

I've attempted to remix this one a number of times but always end up short on something I feel is good enough not to simply delete. So in the end this completes that particular area of my musical journey. Great job, great timing, and fantastic overall performance.

[Khuskan - Atomic]

.............

I completely agree with the guy below me. I've been thinking the EXACT same thing since I downloaded this (then played Fallout 3). Says something when you can compare such a great piece with such a great game.

Good job, seriously, this is great XD

[SML1: Your quest is over.]

Peaceful and then...

Incredibly peaceful in the beginning, I wouldn't mind listening to just the beginning for 2 minutes ^^. But after that the beat kicked up and I was reminded of that old N64 game called Wave Race. Now I know its not from there but it really really sounded just like it. Seriously, go listen to a couple of Wave Race songs (Theme I think in this case) and you'll see what I mean ;p.

Really quite good nonetheless...but then again since when isn't it with you.

[Coming Home (Ambient Mix)]

Submitted 11/28/08

Here I am, browsing around. To tell the truth I was searching around for your "Champions Green" piece and noticed that it wasn't on my iPod any longer so I decided to bounce on over here and redownload it. I went straight to your page as it was the easiest thing to do and, for whatever reason, I decide to look around some and I locate this song. I never noticed it before and now I am beating myself up for never seeing it. Fantastic piece this, its not often something makes me want to just get up and do something, anything with whatever talent I have. So, because I heard this, I think I will take up guitar and especially piano again...its been quite some time but I hope to one day be able to do something even remotely like this.

Fantastic work as always, though this time I believe you may have outdone yourself. Irony here is it is an earlier piece.

[Fable - Temple of Light - Rock]

Hoho!

First off that guitar reminds me the Trans-Siberian Orchestra ;o. But yes, I actually enjoy this more then my 'Fable - Rebirth' remix. There are some areas where the synths could have been changed, faded, or simply taken out as they collided with the guitar too much. But in the end this song has too much going for it for me to patronize the small things. Great job.

Fav'd...going to decide on the dl later.
