[Morrowind [Ocarina]]

Loved this game... and loved this tune;

Where did you find the notes for this piece? I'd love to try and recreate their song as well..

Ocarina-Kid responds:

Sorry dude I played this by ear but I'm sure there'd be lots of stuff on google, I'd definitely love to hear you do this song. Thanks for the review!

[Tokyo Pop]

Dammmmnnnn son!

Although a tad bit repetitive ;) I love it. It sounds absolutely professional, no clipping, no awkward notes, no strange sounds or hisses, nothing. The beat is perfect and matches the music. The transitions and downlifter kicks that you used are perfect as well.

9/9
5/5

[[LO-RMX] Tiesto - Zero 76]

Daaa-uuuummm son!

Catchy as all hell. The beginning was a little weak, but it definitely got made up for. Great work!

Oakwood responds:

I have to admit, yes, the beginning is weak. You might've noticed that the kick I used further in the song is also much more powerful than the one I used in the beginning. But still, thanks for the review, man!

[Castle Theme (Super Mario)]

This... is pretty damn epic;

My friend was across the room playing CoD, about 10 seconds into the song he said "that sounded like mario", my reply, "yea it is <insert laugh here>", i restarted it and he says to me "yea it sounds like when you're in the castle", i stated, "yea it's the castle theme" :D

sounds frickin amazing.

keep this up:)

ArtificialFear responds:

Haha! Thanks, man! \m/

[System Split - F-777]

It is very catchy;

wa-wa-wA-WA-WA-WAASSHFHHFPHHFFF.

[Healing Touch]

Well done my friend,

My two favorite instruments to work with are strings and the good ol' piano. I love this song, the melody is very catchy and kept my attention through the entire piece.

The song also had somewhat of a second meaning to me. Recently a relationship with a women very close to me came to an end, this song basically describes how I feel if my feelings were music, if you can understand that.

Simply amazing, from a newgrounds artist point-of-view, and a personal point-of-view. You have my download. Keep up the work George, you're an incredible artist.

Setu-Firestorm responds:

Thank you. I too am a fan of piano/string duets.

Thank you for the feedback.

[[\Once Upon A Night - 1/]]

Soothing and relaxing:)

I LOVE ambient type music like this. Absolutely amazing. Only reason for 8 stars is because some notes seemed to have surprised me and came out of no where.

The beginning was a little slow, but once 1:40 came around it really started to sound incredible.

Great work, keep it up!

[Dreamscape - To The Stars]

Nice song, but couldn't help but notice...

from 3:00, to 3:10, you're using the same "clapping crowd" filler that im using in the song I'm working on >.> ....

i still have alot of work to do on it yet, but it's from 0:11 to 0:20 :P

That's what we get for using presets that come with Nexus =P

[Hypnose (NG Cut)]

Unreal

Take a listen to some of Unreal Tournament's soundtracks... this song is themed somewhat towards their kinda style of music. ESPECIALLY from 0:22 thru 1:05. Try contacting Epic Games with this song. Never know what could happen, maybe it'll land you a job with one of the most successful gaming companies in the world.

Good luck man, take care.

[Titans [Dance]]

not toooo bad

needs a bit of work yet, cool melody and whatnot for sure, just a bit bland tho. add some transitions, effects, etc. oh, and a bassier kick :)

if you would want to listen to my latest song, "Dance Remix" ..it'd be a good example of what im getting at.

good start :) keep it up, and keep me informed, i wanna see how this guy turns out :)

DjRubix responds:

I will keep you informed i will add those for sure, this is just mainly the demo melody to see what others think! Thanks for the review!
